4th Generation X5...Ground Up Brand New Vehicle...Some say BMW's Current New Model Design is "Evolutionary" vs "Revolutionary" Thanks. PalBay |
Doesn't look so from the pics. For sure it will have new engines, new technology, new interiors, new entertainment system, etc. But the exterior visuals look pretty much the same, no? |

Trinta Here are a few "Comparo" shots of the 3rd Gen X5 vs the new 4th Gen X5. Clearly the G05 X5 is a brand new ground up vehicle....Different Kidney Grille, Changed "D" pillar and Hofmeister Kink and different rocker panel design. Also....Shoulder line Crease...belt line is below the door handles on the G05 X5 vs at the door handles on the F15 X5. Also different rear hatch design on the G05 X5. Thanks. Palbay. |
Thanks for the detailed info PalBay. I still would rather wait to see the final comercial model before judging. For instance I find it hard to believe that grill will make it to the final design. Anyway, my point is that one of the advantages of BMW vs Japanese brands and others alike is the continuity of their models for longer. If they are doing such a deep change as you say so soon, seems like a shortsighted strategy.
