2 Answers
The BMW X5 off-road package features include air suspension, a practical function, reinforced underbody protection panels at the front and rear of the vehicle, and four off-road modes. A practical function: It allows you to observe low obstacles around the vehicle through the surrounding cameras and quickly obtain vehicle posture information from the central control screen. Reinforced underbody protection panels at the front and rear of the vehicle: During off-road driving, this can reduce potential damage to the vehicle. Multi-terrain driving mode: The multi-terrain driving mode provided by the off-road package enhances adventurous capabilities. With a lightweight chassis off-road protective cover, adaptive dual-axle air suspension, and an electronically controlled rear axle differential lock, it ensures effortless control whether on rocks, gravel, ice, or sand.
I've driven the BMW X5 Off-Road Package through plenty of mud pits and sandy terrain, and the key to its enhanced off-road capability lies in the chassis. The air suspension can be raised by 40mm, and combined with the standard all-terrain tires, it handles ditches and bumps with ease. The driving modes include a dedicated mud and sand option that automatically adjusts the four-wheel drive torque distribution. The hill descent control is particularly reassuring, automatically controlling speed on downhill slopes to prevent sliding. The underbody protection plates are quite sturdy, shielding against rock scrapes. The most practical feature is the off-road dashboard, which displays real-time tilt angles and steering angles—seeing the data when crossing diagonal obstacles provides much more peace of mind.
