About BMW 550i GT xDrive
The BMW 550i GT xDrive is a cross between a 5 Series sedan and an X6 crossover, making it a luxury utility, a car that has created a niche that other manufacturers have yet to reach. The front end has an impressive look, and the side profile is also attractive with its flowing lines from the front corners to the back. The only styling difference is at the rear, where the massive end dominates the sleek look. Big fans love this design.
When you're behind the wheel, you immediately feel in control. It feels comfortable in the driver's seat and in control. Front and side visibility is impressive. This is complemented by parts like a high-resolution camera that transmits images to a 10.2-inch color LCD screen. The cameras are useful when traffic cannot be seen at a T-junction. Drivers can see approaching traffic that would otherwise be blocked by parked cars.
