Is the BMW X5 G05/F95 xDrive30d xLine Steptronic also suitable for off-road use? Here usually a distinction is made between "soft-roaders" and real off-roaders. For real rough terrain it needs more than just an all-wheel drive. The SUV boom of the last 10 years has produced many models that look off-road but have limited capability to do so.

The BMW X5 has all-wheel drive, which means that the basic requirement is already met. Ground clearance, another important criterion, is 214 mm for this vehicle. This allows it to move forward even in hilly terrain and, for example, on muddy paths in the forest without sitting up, assuming all-wheel drive.

The integrated air suspension allows the chassis to be raised under certain circumstances, thus increasing ground clearance. The integrated 360-degree camera can also help you move forward on rough terrain and avoid damage.

Rating: The BMW X5 has all-wheel drive as well as acceptable ground clearance. Occasional off-road excursions are no problem. However, it is not a real off-road vehicle.
