I kid you not...
I heard that and groaned, but figured the presenter might have been reading something badly translated from German. The video and much of the X5 marketing seems to be about looking powerful, which is funny because I never really thought that about the E53 or E70, especially when compared to giant American SUVs and trucks. It may be that they intended this to be the message, and no one noticed how it sounded, or if they did they didn't think it was worth another take.
