The Silver Anniversary Edition is based on the 2025 X5 xDrive40i and enhances its off-road capabilities. It features unique styling details from both the Sport and M Sport Designs. Extended Shadowline Trim darkens the window surrounds, roof rails, fender-mounted Air Breathers, and the illuminated kidney grille.

Shadowline lights front and rear complete the exterior trim. The model also includes distinctive 20-inch M Star-spoke bi-colour wheels from the M Sport Package. The black and aluminium theme is complemented by the standard Lime Rock Grey metallic paint and a subtle Silver Anniversary Edition badge on the tailgate.

Inside, customers can choose from Black, Cognac, Coffee, or Silverstone Sensafin upholstery for the sport seats. Carbon Fibre trim embellishes the centre console and dashboard. The BMW Curved Display is powered by BMW Operating System 8.5 and enhanced by Live Cockpit Professional.

This includes a full-colour BMW Head-Up Display and BMW Maps navigation with Augmented Reality display. A Silver Anniversary Edition plaque adorns the compartment door ahead of the gear selector.

Advanced Off-Road Capabilities

The xOffroad Package is standard on this edition and adjusts vehicle settings based on terrain via the Driver Experience Control switch. Options include xSnow, xSand, xGravel, and xRocks modes. The system adjusts ride height, transmission shift strategy, throttle mapping, traction control, and other parameters accordingly.

The package also includes a mechanical rear differential lock and underbody protection plates. An xOffroad View in the central display informs the driver about ground clearance, roll tendency, and terrain inclination or downhill gradient. An xOffroad camera provides views of the terrain from all angles outside the vehicle at speeds below 22 mph.
