The large BMW SUV that still drives like a BMW: six-cylinder diesels with 8-speed automatics, xDrive, a split tailgate and a cabin that suits long family trips.

An evolution of the E70 rather than a clean-sheet car: same footprint, lighter, quieter and with the 8-speed ZF automatic on every version. The xDrive30d is the Polish-market default, the 40d and tri-turbo M50d are the fast diesels, the 35i and 50i are the petrol choices and the 40e plug-in arrived in 2015. There was no mid-life facelift; the visible changes over the run are engine updates (the 25d moved from the N47 to the B47 in 2015) and equipment.

Bigger, more luxurious and far more digital than the F15, on the CLAR platform with optional two-axle air suspension and rear-axle steering. The 30d is again the mainstream choice, the 40d the effortless long-distance engine, the quad-turbo M50d a short-lived curiosity, the 40i and M50i the petrol picks and the 45e plug-in the company-car favourite. Mild hybrids arrived in 2020 and the 2023 LCI brought the curved display and more power across the range.
