The BMW X5 M Sport Pro has finally landed in India, and if you’re into luxury SUVs with a punch of performance and style, this one might just be your next obsession. BMW has given its already popular X5 a bit of a makeover, introducing the M Sport Pro trims to the mix. These new variants are more than just cosmetic upgrades—they’re loaded with performance tweaks, design enhancements, and an impressive off-road package. Let’s break down everything that’s new.
Variants
BMW has launched two new M Sport Pro variants in India: the X5 xDrive 40i M Sport Pro and the X5 xDrive 30d M Sport Pro. The petrol-powered 40i comes in at Rs. 1.13 crore, while the diesel 30d is slightly higher, priced at Rs. 1.15 crore (ex-showroom). So yes, these aren’t cheap upgrades—but they do bring in a lot more value than just a new badge.
Styling
This is where the M Sport Pro starts to flex its muscles. Visually, it stands out with high gloss black finishes on the kidney grille, air dam, and exhaust tips. The aggressive look is backed by an M Sport exhaust system and those eye-catching red brake calipers on the M Sport brakes. Inside, the cabin gets a premium lift with Piano Black dashboard accents and signature M seat belts. These are small touches, but they work together to create a sportier, more refined vibe.
Offroad
If you thought this luxury SUV was just for the streets, think again. The new xOffroad package takes things up a notch by offering four specific off-road driving modes: xSand, xRocks, xGravel, and xSnow. These modes can be selected using a rocker switch in the centre console. Depending on the mode, the vehicle adjusts ride height, throttle response, traction, and stability control. It’s like having four SUVs in one—and they’re all ready to get dirty.
Features
BMW hasn’t held back on the feature list either. The X5 M Sport Pro is packed with air suspension, ultra-comfy comfort seats, matrix adaptive LED headlamps, and massive 21-inch alloy wheels. Step inside, and you’ll notice the curved digital display, four-zone climate control, panoramic sunroof, and an immersive Harman Kardon audio system. Basically, you’re wrapped in luxury while sitting on top of power.
Here’s a quick look at what you’re getting:
Feature | Included in M Sport Pro |

Air Suspension | Yes |
M Sport Exhaust & Brakes | Yes |
Adaptive LED Headlamps | Yes |
21-inch Alloy Wheels | Yes |
Off-road Driving Modes (4) | Yes |

Engine
Under the hood, the lineup remains familiar but still very powerful. Both the petrol and diesel engines are six-cylinder 3.0-litre turbocharged units, paired with BMW’s trusted eight-speed automatic gearbox.
- Petrol (xDrive 40i): Delivers 375bhp and 520Nm
- Diesel (xDrive 30d): Delivers 282bhp and 650Nm
Both variants come with a 48V mild-hybrid system that adds 12bhp and 200Nm during quick bursts of acceleration or while easing off the load during deceleration. It’s all about blending performance with a bit of efficiency.
The launch of the M Sport Pro variants makes the BMW X5 an even more compelling option in the luxury SUV segment. It offers a great mix of performance, rugged off-road capability, and the kind of cabin comfort that makes every drive feel like a premium experience. Yes, the price tag is steep, but if you’re hunting for something that does it all with style, the X5 M Sport Pro definitely makes a strong case.
