This car is going to be a winner. Too bad the M version will have that awful sound again. Any news about the upcoming the new GLE?

Is it a new model or just a facelift?

Just a simple exterior facelift, but with a new dashboard and perhaps something more inside in terms of materials

It's just cost cutting. The prototypes of the Touring still had the split window part if I recall the spy shots. It was a last minute ditch to cut costs.

The X5 will look cleaner without another additional shut-line in the rear of the X5, but it's a feature I hate seeing go..

Not sure what I make of the New Class designs. I’ll have to see them in person before making judgement. That said I like this gen of X5… hope it remains handsome. Most of the X5s were good looking (except the F15)

This has been doing the rounds in the interwebs. Any truth in this design?

I think it has been removed from the X5. But the X7 still has it.

Is there anything BMW hasn't removed or plans to remove soon?

My rear seats are almost never used. I'm just waiting for some BMW employee to read out data on how little the rear seats have been used and thus remove the rear seats "because we have data that so few people use the equipment".

New BMW slogan; "BMW - The Ultimate Cost Cutting Company - We cut where everyone else delivers, at the same price or higher than before."

On topic: the forthcoming next generation X5 and all-new iX5.

These renderings look as though they could be very close to the real, in the metal series production vehicle.

The new X5/ix5 is going to present BMW with quite the "luxury problem". I can easily envision this car treading on 5/i5 Sedan/Touring territory with vigor. But let's see what the G60/61 LCI brings.

Those still seem to me to be 80% based on the current generation; they lack the fundamental global and overall elements seen beyond the camouflage.
