I currently have the xdrive, so just wondering, thanks.
The difference between the sdrive (rear wheel drive) and xdrive (all wheel drive) is the sdrive is rear wheel drive and the xdrive is all wheel drive. Did that answer your question?
I wouldn't consider xdrive to be for off road use. All wheel drive on these vehicles is good for road use in snow, ice, slush or other low traction situations. The ground clearance is about enough to help you out on a slightly rutted, snow covered, gravel road, but that would be the extent of anything close to "off roading" that I would attempt in this vehicle. I'm not sure what your definition of off roading is, but my definition tends to result in conditions that I wouldn't want to expose an expensive SAV to.
