Engines
The BMW X5 is another top contender in the midsize luxury SUV category. While the X5's base engine delivers 375 horsepower, the Lincoln Aviator's standard twin-turbo V6 outperforms it with 400 horsepower. This extra power ensures the Lincoln Aviator offers a more engaging drive on highways around Troy, OH.
Cargo Space
Cargo space is another area where the Lincoln Aviator shines, boasting 77.7 cubic feet, while the BMW X5 provides only 72.3 cubic feet. With more room behind the third row than the X5, the Lincoln Aviator is the better option for families needing extra space for luggage or gear. The Lincoln Aviator's spacious interior makes longer trips more comfortable for passengers as well.
Features
Turn your Lincoln Aviator into a mobile hotspot through Lincoln Connect® 4G LTE Embedded Modem, which is missing on the X5. The Lincoln Aviator features the intuitive SYNC® 3 infotainment system, compared to BMW Operating System 8.5 for the X5.
The Lincoln Aviator also offers more advanced driver-assistance technologies as standard, such as an Around View Camera and Head-Up Display - which the BMW X5 does not have.
