That means you can get the 2020 BMW X5 either way, but If you plan to take yours off-road, you should choose a trim with xDrive. You can see in the video below from 1:03 to 1:06, that the model in the demonstration cuts torque to the wheel that loses traction, meaning that the wheels that do have traction can work harder to push the X5 further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/D72IzaVoETE\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cardenasbmw.com\/blog\/how-do-i-connect-my-phone-to-my-2020-bmw-x5\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">How Do I Connect my Phone to my 2020 BMW X5?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does the 2020 BMW X5 Have Off-Road Cameras?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>From 3:57 in the video to 4:02, you can see for yourself what it looks like to drive with the front-facing cameras on a downhill descent.
