2025 Volvo XC90 vs. 2025 BMW X5

Two of the major players in the luxury midsize SUV class are the 2025 Volvo XC90 and the 2025 BMW X5. Manufactured by two of the auto industry’s biggest names, both models appeal to a broad audience. However, when comparing these models in three important categories, Volvo Cars Gilbert customers will see that the 2025 Volvo XC90 brings more to the table.

Cabin

The cabin of the 2025 Volvo XC90 offers a bit more versatility than the BMW model. For starters, it offers seating for up to seven passengers, whereas the 2025 BMW X5 tops out at five. Cargo capacity is also in favor of the new Volvo SUV – 85.7 cubic feet versus 72.3 cubic feet. And although the interior of the BMW model is well-heeled, it doesn’t match the elegance or uniqueness of the Volvo model’s Scandinavian design.

Infotainment

All three 2025 Volvo XC90 trims come standard with premium infotainment features such as an 11.2-inch center touchscreen, wireless phone charging, and a digital instrument panel. You’ll also get wireless smartphone connectivity and HD and satellite radio. Moreover, a 10-speaker sound system and a 14-speaker Harman Kardon® sound system are both available. The 2025 BMW X5 offers similar features, but the Volvo model’s the ace in the hole is Google built-in. Integrating apps such as Google Maps™, Google Assistant™, and Google Play™, this system makes for a more sophisticated, connected ride than what the BMW model can provide.

Driver Assistance

Innovative driver assistance systems are a defining characteristic of every vehicle at our Gilbert, AZ, Volvo dealership. The 2025 Volvo XC90 comes standard with a full suite of next-gen safety tech, including standout features such as Traffic Sign Reader and Rear Automatic Braking. You won’t find these features even as options on the 2025 BMW X5. Another benefit not offered by the BMW X5 is Three-Year Complimentary Factory Scheduled Maintenance – further evidence of the confidence that the Volvo brand has in its state-of-the-art engineering.
