BMW X5 
After 15 years in North America, the X5 needs no introduction. Redesigned last year, this SUV from BMW adapts to its owner’s preferences. Four very different versions are available: 35d, 35i, 50i and the wildest of the bunch, the M, featuring 255, 300, 445 and 555 horsepower, respectively. The X5 also possesses an interesting 650 litres of cargo capacity and when the rear bench is lowered it can increase to 1,850 litres.
