Ideally, with unlimited resources, i will have a 30 cars, and a 30 car garage too. Each car has its specific purpose. Hmm why not a couple drivers too. Heck, why stop at car, add jet and space shuttle. Hmm … need to start printing money at home.

Climate Package Yes
Exec Package No Trailer Hitch Yes M Sport Package yes, but you might need to change the color from Blue Ridge Mountain. I was trying to build online and when I picked the Blue Ridge Mountain extcolor it would not let me select the M Sport Package |

This is what I am towing and it works great - don’t have photos of the G05 45e or M60 towing it but are even better. I can cruise at 80 very comfortably with this setup.

Diesels are dead, huh? The trucking industry heavily relies on diesel engines, and while their presence in the passenger car market in the US has diminished, they remain presence in EU. All other things being equal, a diesel engine is more capable than a gasoline one when it comes to towing. I wouldn't buy X5 if I had to tow. Simple as that. What do you mean "misleading"? This is my personal opinion based on facts I mentioned. You may have the different one. My point is luxury performance SUVs like the X5 aren't primarily designed for towing, a fact evident in their marketing and feature prioritization. Take a look at the BMW X5 webpage or brochures - towing isn't a focal point. In most cases, people don't buy them to tow around and they don't even have factory hitch. It's about acknowledging a vehicle's intended purpose and making rational decisions accordingly. |
