i still wonder wy, they did that with x5, officially it was due to "aging interior amd exterior design" of old x5, but IMO, f15 wasnt old at all, it was quite fresh on exterior, amd veerryyy fresh design in interior with floating screen like 7series, like 5series... and to be honest, new x7 from pictures seen and renders, to me looks like that car should be next x5 with those shapes of lights kidneys etc.
X5 refresh came early to be on the same new CLAR platform as the other cars. Keeping the old X5 would have meant two platforms. Lower production efficiency and economy of scale at the plant. Now they all will ride on the new CLAR platform.

I do believe production should begin in the next few months!
