What about X7???

[bgsquad]

Guys Guys Guys! Where is the full size X7????

We all know that BMW fleet is mainly 3,5, and 7 we have the X3, X5, so where is the X7? I can't believe they did the X6 before the X7, knowing that the 6 of BMW is the big coupe sub-category, which is not as widespread as the big 7... even more, they created the 1 series just a couple of years ago, which was not that successful (for what i know) and here they are now talking about X1!! it doesn't make sense! and they talk about the V or F (whatever)... come on, it's time for a full size SUV to beat the s**t out of escalade, armada, tahoe, chevy/GMC EXT, etc... can you imagine the beast that it would be? oh my god!!! all SUVs will drop on their knees seeing it nearby...

They increased the size of X5 (E70) to make it seven seater.. wrong! keep it a five seater mid size, and create the big full-size X7... IMHO

My guess is the "mkt demand" for a longer, bigger X, here in the US or in
Europa, is slim to none and Slim is on the bus. Those full size SUVs you
ref'd aren't exactly flying off the lots.

I see MB GL450s everywhere, and this is in Mid Missouri! I'm sure an X7 would be a hit here in the U.S.A.

I know this is old and way past due... but I thought it might still be funny.

Yes, a X7 would be big and bulky and would consume a lot of fuel. It is good that there is a lot of liquid Methane on Europa that will help fuel it.

As mD said, I cannot think of many people who'd want an X7. The X5 is already too big.

Is it true that the next X3 will be similar to E53 size? If it is, then the MY14 X5 should be a true 7 seater, no?

Getting very close.

X3 had to grow as X1 is out now. BMW is positioning X5 as the family crossover/SUV people mover.

BMW admitted they canceled the project about 2 years ago... Didn't see significant demand.
