What acronym should be applied to that? Perhaps it is an SLV?
It's sad to see the focus on style over function from BMW.

They're calling it SAC - Sport Activity Coupe. BMW dropped utility in favor of activity when they realized that they're SUV's were more performance oriented and sacrificed utility. Activity suits this car more than it has ever suited the X5
