It's really dumb to make the X5 hover somewhere between mid-size and 7 seater... the X5 should have remained a mid size sporty vehicle, and X7 should have been created to seat 7.

BMW was trying to "inflate" the X5 to make it 2 in 1 (mid AND large), but what they actually did was losing the 2!!! What we have now is no more the sporty midsized SAV that we all loved, and at the same time it's not the soccer mom/dad 7 seater!! very stupid strategy, and that's exactly why, dear MD, the X5 is struggling!! IT LOST ITS PERSONALITY

nothing can be changed now, but they should have left the X5 as is, and went for an X7. it would have been muuuuuuuuuuch more intelligent thatncreating this X1... what the hell is an X1??? it was historically known that you have a mini SUV (X3), mid-size (X5), and large (missing!!)... the coupe SUV was introduced by infinity, so BMW created the X6, fine! but what is this X1??? and X7 would have filled the missing part in BMW arsenal, but what did they do? they tried to reposition the X5 (they killed it in that!) and created an X1 that has absolutely no personality!! is it a mini-mini-SUV? who will buy it? X3 is small enough!

It's a mess... a mess!!
