BMW X5 Passive Safety Features

The BMW X5 keeps you safe in a variety of ways, and it starts with the passive safety features you’ll find in every trim level.

There are lots of advanced airbags in the vehicle. In the front, you’ll have driver’s and front passenger’s airbags that will automatically deploy in the event of a collision. These are paired with a standard supplemental restraint system, so you won’t have any reason to worry about unnecessary airbag deployment either. This system is designed to prevent that from happening using intuitive sensors.

There is also the standard front and rear Head Protection System (HPS) that comes with side-impact airbags as well as a rollover sensor that will trigger the airbags if your BMW X5 rolls over.

The X5 takes every safety precaution it can, which is evidenced by 3-point safety belts with force limiters at every seating position. A standard Active Protection System helps the safety belts automatically pre-tighten, which increases the chances of you and your passengers not suffering injuries if a collision occurs.

Are you worried about being able to see at night or in heavy fog? The X5 comes with standard Adaptive Full LED Headlights with daytime running lights, which will alleviate any concerns you have of driving in conditions that may be considered unsatisfactory.

Other standard passive safety features found in the 2022 BMW X5 include:

• LATCH attachments for child seats
• Anti-lock Braking System
• Anti-theft alarm system

2022 BMW X5 Safety Technology

Thanks to intuitive and innovative safety technology, the BMW X5 stands above its competition. With a plethora of standard and available driver-assistive technologies and systems, you can have the assurance you need behind the wheel. Here are some of the features you’ll have watching out for you:

• Rear-view Camera: Make parallel parking and parking in tight spaces easier than ever with a standard Rear-view Camera and front and rear Park Distance Control. This gives you a view of what’s behind your vehicle on your dashboard touchscreen with guidelines to help you not back into something while in reverse.
• Active Driving Assistant: The X5 also offers a suite of standard safety technology systems called Active Driving Assistant. This suite includes Active Blind Spot Detection, which monitors your blind spot and alerts you if there is a vehicle sitting there.

Also included are Frontal Collision Warning to help prevent possible accidents, Lane Departure Warning, which warns you when you veer from your lane, and Speed Limit Info. With these features in your back pocket, your car will act as a second set of eyes for you.

• BMW Assist eCall™: If you’re ever involved in an accident, the BMW makes it easy to call for help. Standard BMW Assist eCall™ acts as an SOS system, as it can call for a tow, an ambulance, or local law enforcement if you ever need it at the push of a button. Plus, with Enhanced Automatic Collision Notification, help will automatically be on its way if you find yourself in an accident.

That’s not all either. You can add even more driving aids with the available Driving Assistance Professional Package giving you extra peace of mind while on the go. This suite includes advanced systems, like:

• Active Cruise Control with Stop & Go
• Extended Traffic Jam Assistance
• Active Lane Keeping Assistant with Side Collision Avoidance
