The new BMW X5 named Best Luxury SUV by Consumer Reports

Consumer Reports members are widely known in the United States and their opinions are generally important to their readers. They have some pedigree behind them and, even though they have been referred to as biases many times, usually have the money right when it comes to helpful tips on how to spend your money on your next car. They have just released their annual ranking of the best performing vehicles in 10 categories and the BMW X5 is at the top of its segment.

The new X5 is truly a different car from its predecessor and can now compete with the other brilliant performers in its segment. He is doing such a good job that he has received a prestigious recommendation from Consumer Reports, which is not easy to obtain. The new G05 X5 won the title of best luxury SUV, CR claiming it was one of the best vehicles ever tested. It's also a high eulogy, given the way they usually do things.

According to them, driving is comfortable and composed, the interior is quiet and impeccably finished while the seats are comfortable all day long. Overall, the X5 is a winner in his book, but that's not all. The BMW brand has performed rather well in its overall ranking. Subaru won first place overall in the car brand, gaining six places from last year and surpassing Genesis for first place.

Genesis is now second, followed by Porsche. Audi, Lexus and Mazda ranked fourth, fifth and sixth, respectively, while BMW finished seventh after losing some points over last year. But overall, the Bavarian brand performed well, unlike Fiat or Jaguar, for example, who arrived last and foremost.
