Of course when originally introduced the rivals the current X5 is facing now were not even a twinkle in an engineers' eyes. The success of the X5 and its bulldozering of the W163 M-klasse sent Mercedes-Benz back to the drawing board on the W164 - which is what the X5 is setting out to beat. Although BMW engineers examined the X5's rivals from a competitors point of view there was only one Benchmark: the E53 X5. The car the new X5 has to beat.

The benchmark to beat is the Audi Q7.
