The BMW X5 can be equipped with either all-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive, depending on the specific model. Models labeled as xDrive come with all-wheel drive, while those labeled as sDrive have rear-wheel drive only. When the BMW X5 was first introduced, it featured all-wheel drive to handle snow and dirt roads effectively. However, as more people started using it primarily on paved roads, a rear-wheel drive version was also offered at a lower price point since it lacks the additional components necessary for all-wheel drive. Whether you opt for rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, the BMW X5 remains a top-notch SUV that has earned numerous accolades for its engaging driving experience.

    The 2018 BMW X5 has different trim options available with various drive configurations. The xDrive 35i trim allows for both rear wheel drive and all wheel drive. On the other hand, the xDrive 35d trim is exclusively all wheel drive. Opting for the xDrive 50i trim gets you a larger 4.4 liter engine and all wheel drive as well. Additionally, there is a hybrid alternative with the BMW X5 xDrive 40e trim, which is solely equipped with all wheel drive.
