The style, commanding presence, and remarkable strength of BMW SUVs make them a treat to drive. Both short trips and lengthy expeditions around Lubbock and Amarillo, TX, and Clovis, NM, are turned into leisurely drives behind the wheel of a BMW.
To give drivers the highest chance of finding a model they adore, BMW offers numerous SUVs to choose from. BMW Lubbock outlines these options below to help you figure out which model best serves your needs and fits your lifestyle.
Subcompact BMW SUVs
If you need a vehicle that's small and spacious, you'll want to look into a subcompact BMW Sports Activity Vehicle® (SAV®). These models offer the best of both worlds: the cargo capacity and strength of an SUV, with the maneuverability and efficiency of a smaller vehicle.
BMW offers two subcompact models: the BMW X1, and the BMW X2. Both are equipped with a 2.0L engine that produces up to 228 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. The X1 offers more cargo capacity with a maximum of 58.7 cubic feet of room, while the coupe style of the X2 offers up to 50.1 cubic feet.
Compact BMW SUVs

Compact BMW SUV models are a little larger than the subcompact options, and come in various trims-including the high-performance M trims.
Just like the subcompact BMW SUVs, there are two options: the BMW X3 and BMW X4. Their primary difference is their style. While the X3 is designed with a traditional boxy SUV shape, the X4 has a coupe-like appearance.
Both offer high-energy engines capable of generating up to 503 horsepower-and, unlike the subcompact vehicles, they have the ability to tow up to 4,000 pounds when properly equipped.
Midsize BMW SUVs
The BMW X5, and BMW X6, are the two available midsize options. Just like the previous two classes, these come in a traditional box shape (X5), and a coupe-style (X6) option.
These midsize SUVs pack even more of a punch, and come with an impressive amount of space. Just take a look at these specs:
- Up to 72.3 cubic feet of cargo capacity
- Up to 617 horsepower
- Up to 7,200-pound towing capacity when properly equipped
Plus, with the X5, you can add in an available third row to accommodate even more passengers.
Full-Size BMW SUVs
BMW offers one dominating full-size SUV: the BMW X7. Everything about it is grand and luxurious.
It can seat up to seven passengers among three accommodating rows, but an available 6-passenger option with second-row captain's chairs is available. With all the seats folded down, you can enjoy up to 90.4 cubic feet of cargo capacity.
There are three energetic engines-one for each available trim-offering output that ranges from 335 horsepower to 612 horsepower. As for towing capacity, you can hitch up to 7,500 pounds when properly equipped.
Electric BMW SUVs
BMW offers one fully electric SUV: the BMW iX. This model has an EPA-estimated driving range of 324 miles, and comes standard with 516 horsepower and xDrive all-wheel drive.* It not only comes with the space of an SUV, but also the performance and dynamism of a sports car.
Plus, you have up to 77.9 cubic feet of cargo capacity if you need it.
