BMW is launching a special X5 in Canada to mark 25 years of the popular SUV. The X5 Edition 25 Jahre will hit Canadian dealerships in the last three months of the year.

The company will make 250 of these limited-edition models based on the 2025 X5 xDrive40i. Buyers can choose between two colors that nod to the original X5 from 1999: Oxford Green II Metallic and Le Mans Blue Metallic.

Each color comes with its own interior setup. The green version gets Coffee Sensafin upholstery with Fineline Stripe Brown High-Gloss trim. The blue one pairs Silverstone Sensafin seats with Poplar Grain Anthracite Brown Open-Pored trim.

On the outside, the Edition 25 Jahre mixes things up. It has black exterior trim from the M Sport package and aluminum-style accents on the bumpers and rocker panels from the xLine package. The SUV rolls on 21-inch Orbit Grey wheels with a Y-spoke design.

BMW packed this X5 with lots of standard features. It comes with the xOffroad Package, which adds air suspension, a locking rear differential, and extra protection underneath. Drivers can pick from four off-road modes: xSnow, xSand, xGravel, and xRocks.

Inside, passengers will enjoy heated seats, armrests, and steering wheel. The SUV also has a Harman-Kardon sound system and BMW's latest tech, including the Curved Display with a head-up display and augmented-reality navigation.

The X5 Edition 25 Jahre will cost CA$102,500, which is about US$75,327. That's a premium over the regular X5, but you're getting a piece of BMW history.

Since the first X5 rolled off the line in 1999, BMW has made nearly 3 million of them at its Spartanburg plant in South Carolina. The X5 Edition 25 Jahre is a nod to that success and the model's enduring popularity.
