Vehicles have grown in size over the years. For anyone looking for the perfect midsize crossover, do yourself a favor and check out the new X3 (new since 2018). The new and current X5 is a great vehicle with plenty of power and practicality, but it is definitely a larger vehicle. In my opinion the X3 is perfect and due to its size, it would have been considered a midsize crossover 10 years ago. And in case you agree with this sentiment and decide to go for the X3, go for the M40i.

I have owned 4 BMW X5’s and they have been terrific. Porsche, Corvette, and Cobra Mustangs have been previous vehicles. Along with Trucks, Pathfinder, 4-Runners, and BMW 335XI. There is something Special about the BMW X5’s….. I have gone up Steep Roads in in-plowed 8 inches of snow no problem. Many cars and SUV stuck on the side of the road along with Several BMW 2 Wheel Drives. Do yourself a huge favor…. Get The All Wheel X Drive….. It could be a life saver. 🇺🇸🤠👮🏻♂️👍👻👋. B9USA Sr.

This is a lease only vehicle. Our 7 year old X5 has had a congo line of problems, some of which the dealer never fixed and BMWNA never acknowledged. BMW isn't a company that produces quality products. They make nice stuff when new, but it ages like a jar of mayo in an Arizona summer. Caveat emptor.

@@BERETTA9mmUSA I have a 5 seats gasoline Q7, German specs, with all the hardware of the Porsche cayenne (ceramic brakes, sport differential, active anti roll bars, etc), you can't get that nice stuff on Q7 usa specs. And, I don't need to add that, it's vastly superior to GLE and X5 both for comfort and hanfling

Comparing a series/class above another class is never the logical think. Q7 is a class above anything 5 in BMW or Benz. So why don’t you compare it to the X7 since they are in the same series/class… this is a no brainer…. Duh. Some me some American guy who doesn’t know shit.

@@fromBalkan You're wrong on so many levels dude. Q7 was born in 2007 to compete against X5 and ML, and at the same time offering a valid competitor to the american midsize suvs, that on average were larger than european midsize (allroad, xc90, range rover sport, ML, X5). Bonus, size helped to make the vehicle different and not steal sales to cayenne & touareg. Hence the big size of 2006 Q7. With newer generations bmw and mercedes rapdly catch up, and today, they offer the same wheelbase of Q7 and are withing 10-13 cm of Q7 total length. Beyond that, comparing a vehicle against another with a 10 inches lenght delta is not a crime. Only we european are so close-minded and ldiots to creat a new segment every 10 cm. And I'm not american, you actually talk cr4p like americans do, i'm italian, but since I lived in Australia, Texas, Japan and Italy and worked on local car markets, I know a thing or two about vehicles and how consumers cross-shop them. And you can be sure, in US the midsize Q7 steal X5 customers, not X7, whereas in China steal X5 and X5 lwb customers, hence audi is introducing a lwb version of their future 2024 Q6 e tron and 2026 Q7 ICE models.

I drove the brand new m5 and the 2018 x5m. i realized suv is more practical but i dont think i need that extra hp. no matter how many hp suv has, the suv cannot give you the feeling of driving sedan/sport car. for me,i rather to spend extra for the sedan instead. For me,the inline 6 model for suv is enough for me.

90K, ouch. A Jeep Wrangler JL could be had for 1/2 that price. I get that the Jeep is not an ubber luxury vehicle but BMW just keeps getting more and more expensive, even with nice leases. The price seems artificial to keep with the slam of high depreciation in the years to come.
