As purveyors of some of the most astonishing autos the world has ever seen, it can sometimes take a great deal to impress us here at BMW of West Houston.

When we first encountered the all-new 2016 BMW X5 xDrive40e, however, we experienced no such hesitation. We knew almost instantly that this utility hauler would be a huge hit.

And, as luck would have it, Cars.com personality, Kelsey Mays, just so happens to be here today to serve up the inside scoop on this standout SUV. Check the clip below to get his take on the matter:

The X5 xDrive40e is available only on one trim level. Fortunately, that one trim level should leave very little to be desired.

Standard features on this model include 19-inch wheels, a rear air suspension, adjustable suspension dampers, adaptive xenon headlamps, a panoramic sunroof, a power liftgate, roof rails, fore and aft parking sensors, keyless entry and ignition, as well as dual-zone auto climate control. Talk about tricked-out; the X5 xDrive40e is all that and a bag of chips!

If you'd like to meet this mind-bending machine "in the metal," or wish to put one through its paces on the open road, we encourage you to pay us a visit at our Katy, TX location. Upon your stopover, we'll be sure to set you up with a test drive in the X5 xDrive40e, or any other BMW model that may be on your must-see list.
