If you want to use the existing Tesla charger, you just need a $100 adapter. Simply put the Tesla connection head does not fit the X5 receptacle. Tesla is proprietary design, BMW is J1772.

The link you provided here is if you elected not to use a Tesla charger. If you buy this one you don't need any adapters. This one is a J1772 connector that fits the BMW receptacle
