The BMW X5 is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV that has been sold by BMW since 2000. It is based on the E39 5 Series, which offers all wheel drive and a variety of straight-6 and V8 engines, connecting with non-US models featuring a 3.0L diesel engine. The X5's history began in the late 1990s, when Chris Bangle drew the original sketches from California's Designworks studio, and its design was largely influenced by the Range Rover. BMW adopted a number of its parts and electronics from the E39 5 series to save costs. As opposed to the Range Rover, the X5 was intended as a sporty vehicle, leading BMW to market it as a Sports Activity Vehicle (SAV) rather than an SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle). Moreover, the X5 was made to emulate a rear-wheel drive sedan, with 60% of the engine's torque routed to the rear wheels. This type of car design has since been represented in other models, such as the Porsche Cayenne, and has raised praise from many reviewers. The X5's criticisms include its small interior volume for its size, but future models are anticipated to address this issue.
