Class-leading blend of performance and economy, excellent ride quality, refinement.
Quite expensive, optional third-row seats for children only, less fun to drive than the original.
A thoughtful and effective replacement, but some of the charm has gone.
Even old X5s in their sixth year on the road were commanding good money, something the addition of 6,000 extra ones every year on UK roads did remarkably little to dent. Expect this X5 to lose very little money at least in the short to medium term relative to conventional family estates.
