BMW X5 third row seat demonstration in 2017 BMW X5. Same configuration will apply to all X5's from 2014, and it will be very close to older X5's as well

I'm about to buy an X5 with that feature; this is a good, real-world review of the 3rd row seating - Wish more reviewers would be as practical as this.

You should set the angle of the second seat row to the angle close to vertical (as you show), when you use the third seat row. This would give you about 4 inches (10 cm) more space for your knees. But on the video, you set the second seat row angle to the position where it interferes most with the third seat row. That's why you are not comfortable sitting in the third seat row. You can also move the second row forward in two positions. It looks like you only move the second row forward the first position. You should be able to move it yet 2-4 inches (5-10 cm). With both these adjustments there will be more space for people in the third seat row (at the expense of space for people in second row).

Thank you very much for an honest review. As a 3 series owner, I was looking for a larger vehicle for my 2 new children with car seats, and a nanny, and of course I wanted to stay in the BMW family. This was very enlightening, and it seems we need something larger.

I have NEVER seen a proper review of 3rd row seating in any SUV. They ALL forget to raise the back rest of the middle row and they never move the middle row forwards. So what you end up with is the middle row passengers are left with more than enough leg room than they need to be comfortable and the 3rd row are left with zero, because the middle row hasn’t been pushed forward. Why?
@lamar326gaskins5 жыл бұрын
I totally agree! I've tested this out in my 2012 X5. I'm 6'2, 200lbs and can in fact fit in the 3rd row when the middle row is adjusted accordingly (I've sat in the middle row to make sure I have enough ample leg space and I do). Would I ever want to suffer in the tight 3rd row for more than a 1 hour drive? Certainly not! But nonetheless, for shorter (small framed) adults and children, the 3rd row actually works well!

I really like BMW,..and your review was honest, straight forward and very informative in your demonstration. I feel BMW dropped the ball in their engineering dept and should have designed the seat to be further back and slightly raised. It appeared you had the headroom and a few inches into the cargo area would have made a world of difference. For this reason I go back to Audi and get a Q7 which slightly longer and slightly less exciting suv..and my kids go to VW for the Tiguan which still has more room than the BMW.

Oh...the point. ...lol...I love the review and it pretty much confirms that i will stay with my path. ...the X7 comes out in a year or so, but not in my budget....

@philipa.68967 жыл бұрын
You wouldn't be able to move the third row back much further because of the rake of the tailgate window, ie the occupant would hit their head on the glass. The only way to realistically get more space for the 3rd row occupants is to change the shape of the boot area from the C pillar back.... This is why all the full size SUVs with proper space for the third row are either boxy (discovery) or huge (GL)... Thats the point Lincoln makes at the end. The X5 3rd row is not for adults / long drives.

I own a 2016 X5 (40D M Sport) with 3rd row seats. Problem is the true rear seats have an issue - one side sits flush when fully reclined (pushed back) whilst the other side (passenger side) has a gap of a couple inches? BMW UK are telling me this is how it is on all X5's with 3rd row seats? How can the seats sit flush on one side and not the other? When I purchased the car I pointed out this issue and said it would need to be resolved, which they stated would be done via warranty and now today (having purchased the car months ago) they say that's how its supposed to be (?). Thoughts?

Agreed....3rd row is absolutely useless in this car....waste of design.....I never understood why companies make 3rd row seats for some SUVs and no one can use them the least bit..... BMW wasted time by trying to add a 3rd row to the x5.....just do away with it and have a back seat.....the x5 is a nice car though......anyone who wants a 3rd row that you can actually use needs to wait on the x7.......

Don't ge me wrong, I truly appreciate how honest you were in describing how it's not confortable at all, but those seeking a vehicle with third row seating want it to be a seamless task: slide here, lift, get the damn kids in there, go! Type of thing.

They could've definitely left less trunk space and make more comfortable seats in the third row. The trunk looks like a Q7 or a galaxy with the 7 seats up. Should've struck a better balance there because those seats are not ok neither for kids nor dogs, let alone an adult for 30 seconds.
