The design for F40 X5 to be released in late 2013 as 2014 model is officially approved by BMW. F40 X5 will introduce some new technologies. F40 X5 is also coming out close to 2015 EPA regulations which means better mpg for the new X5. What we know(thanks to member Scott27 and some others): - Modular aluminum chassis
- Sporty styling
- Lighter in weight than E70 X5
- Base X5 with 2L 4-cylinder (probably ActiveHybrid) engine.
- More leg room than E70, which also means, you know what
- |- or "sideways T" shaped taillights(sort of similar to F25 X3).
- Hoffmeister kink somewhat similar to F25 X3
- Some BMW Concept CS design elements
- Sculpted surface and body lines (this is becoming common in the auto industry e.g. new Hyundai Sonata)
- Wide body appearance and 3D look wheel arches.
