'07 SUV Rollover Report from...
 

the gov't gang.
2007 BMW X5/X3 were not tested. :confused:

One would think the marketing "geniuses" that hump
all the BMW BS would have made certain that the
NHTSA got their hands on an '07 X3 and, esp. the
new model E70 X5 to participate in the testing.

NEway, pretty good list and most make it; maybe a more
informative story in the days to come, beyond this AP
release via Yahoo:

basically, any SUV with roll stability control did well :thumbup: Is it even possible to roll an X5 by doing sharp manuvers on a flat road? I would think the DSC would have a fit.

What about IIHS?

They are focused more on stringent front and side tests rather than rollover.
