Newbold BMW Welcomes 2013 BMW X5 to O'Fallon, IL

Online, June 29, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Newbold BMW is pleased to announce the arrival of the 2013 BMW X5 to its O'Fallon, IL showroom floor. This luxury midsize SUV offers plenty of performance, technology, and safety features to provide the ultimate driving experience. Newbold BMW is proud to offer several 2103 X5s to its customers in O'Fallon, IL, as well as customers in the St. Louis, MO area.

The 2013 BMW X5 comes standard with a 3.0-liter 6-cylinder engine that produces 300 horsepower and 300 lb-ft of torque. This turbocharged engine can go from 0-60 mph in 6.4 seconds and performs at the same pace as many V8 engines on the market today. The 2013 X5 also comes standard with BMW's xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive system. Built with rear-wheel bias, this system allows for better grip on slick roads, without sacrificing the feel of true rear-wheel drive. The 2013 X5 also comes with an 8-speed automatic transmission and Brake Energy Regeneration, which makes the X5 one of the most powerful vehicles in its class.

Technology runs rampant in the 2013 BMW X5, which includes such features as iPod/iPhone USB integration. This system allows for drivers and passengers to play their MP3 players through the X5's audio system. BMW has worked with Apple to create the world's first seamless integration of an iPod within an automobile. HD Radio and SIRIUS XM Satellite Radio are also included in the 2013 X5. Optional features include BMW Apps, which is a part of BMW ConnectedDrive System. With the use of a smartphone, BMW Apps gives X5 drivers and passengers access to many 3rd party mobile applications within the vehicle.

BMW does not sacrifice safety in the 2013 X5. Adaptive Brake Lights allow drivers behind the 2013 X5 to see how much force is being applied to the X5's brakes, which will reduce the amount of bumper-to-bumper collisions. The Dynamic Stability Control System allows the driver to stay in control of the X5 while encountering all sorts of adverse driving conditions. This system uses several measurements, including speed, steering angle, and brake pressure, to detect and correct the loss of wheel traction. BMW includes a front airbag system, an anti-theft alarm system, and a rollover sensor with every 2013 X5.
