The central focus of the new Black Vermilion edition is the exclusive interplay between black and red. The high-gloss black kidney grille with red vertical bars creates a stark contrast to the BMW Individual Frozen Black Metallic paint finish. Darkened Individual Shadowline Headlights with the signature blue ‘X’design of the BMW Laserlights complete the distinctive look of the front end.

On the exterior, the M Sport Package emphasises the dynamic character of the BMW X5 Black Vermilion edition. It comprises, among other things, specific front and rear aprons as well as the M high-gloss Shadow Line with extended options. Behind the Orbit Grey matt, 22-inch, double-spoke 742 M light-alloy wheels with mixed tyres designed exclusively for these edition models, red high-gloss M Sport brake callipers stand out as a striking visual highlight.

The interior of the BMW X5 Black Vermilion edition features the M Alcantara Anthracite roof liner that provides for an exceptionally sophisticated ambience. The glass application Crafted Clarity on the iDrive Controller, the automatic gear selector and Start/Stop button, and the BMW Individual precious wood interior trim Fineline Black with aluminium inlays provide additional sophisticated accents. The BMW Individual full leather trim Merino Black is additionally enhanced by edition-specific red contrast stitching for seats. Sun-protective glass with more deeply tinted rear windows beyond the B-pillar enhances passenger privacy while blending harmoniously with the sporty and dynamic exterior design.
