A shining example of a midsize luxury SUV done right, the 2016 BMW X5 is in many ways the lynchpin of its class.


This, of course, begs the all-important question of why.


Well, fortunately for us (and you), Auto Trader UK Senior Road Tester, Paul Bond, is here today to offer up his expertise. Take a look and listen:

Standard with the rear-wheel sDrive35i and all-wheel xDrive35i is a most brilliant base engine, a turbo 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder. This six-banger packs quite a punch, dishing out a dazzling 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque. Best of all, with a maximum tow rating of 6,000 pounds, this drivetrain is ready for just about any and all of your duties, whether heavy or light in nature.
