Yeah I think it is pointless.

Funny how short the X1 is/looks by comparison.

For example, can you tell me which manufacturer and model is the best off road luxury SUV? Is it the Audi Q5? ("readers of OFF ROAD magazine have selected the Audi Q5 as the off-road vehicle of the year in the SUV category.")

Maybe the Mercedes G-Class? (won the “Luxury off-roader” category)

Or maybe it was the X5 after all (wins “Off-Roader of the Year” in the Luxury SUV category).

Does anyone else see how pointless this entire thing is, other than for generating press releases?
