Production of the E53 X5 began on 1 September 1999, and the model made its debut as BMW's first SUV, with all wheel drive and a manual or automatic gearbox. The history of the X5 began in 1994, when ideas began on a BMW sports utility vehicle after the acquisition of Land Rover, and the takeover of Rover proved very beneficial for BMW in the development of the X5.
