Here is the latest sighting of the future G65 X5 M60e, spied by Motor.es

Per ynguldyn this recent thread, here's the latest info on the G65 X5 and iX5 BEV:

G65/G95 X5, iX5, X5M

• In production 8/26-07/33
• X5 model range: X5 40, 40 xDrive, 40d xDrive, 50e xDrive, M60 xDrive, M60e xDrive
• iX5 models: 50 xDrive, 60 xDrive, M70 xDrive
• G65 X5 will push hard into high luxury.
• Expect many top level features currently only found on 7/X7 - from automatic doors to interior details, plus all the UI advancements we've been hearing about recently: Panoramic Vision, Augmented View, AR glasses integration, passenger side screen and "Ceremonial Light Carpet."
• There's a good chance the BEV iX5 will only be introduced in 2027.

Why does it look like it sits so much lower than the current gen X5??

[David Kunitz]

Looks bold, what a size!

[ScoutsoutX00X]

It looks overly bloated. I hope it does not loose the sporty styling.

[MPower10s]

Looking good. Progress!

It probably weighs 4 tons, that’s why.

[M6-Coupe]

Such a big car.
Looks like in existing X7 size.

Big fan of the new Noya Class front end. From the spy shots it looks like they are moving away from the IX grill and moving towards that Noya Class design language. Big Win if the whole lineup goes in the direction!

[hufington]

Those hips don't lie, she's bulkier than the current X5.

[IAmSpeed]

Kidney grills are finally getting smaller? Lol

[TheBingoBalls]

Lost the boxy greenhouse look, now longer/horizontally stretched like the X3.

But ultimately, comes down to the details - headlight design, type of grille, bumper design, etc.

[BokTroy]

Let’s hope it does not look anything like the G45 X3.

[Bimmerfun82]

They squished it like a pancake. What a travesty. I was worried about this, and now they’ve gone and ruined it. Just wait until you see the interior

[bavarianboar]

License plate moving to the bumper is going to leave a huge empty space in the back, and will look strange like the new X3 if the rear end is not properly designed.

High chances they will screw up the rear again because they are getting really good at messing up the designs over and over.

The MY25 may buy you an insurance policy until BMW really solidifies where they are going.

This looks massive, lower to the ground but may just be so hard to say at this stage. Making an EV and ICE on same platform comes with similar tradeoffs as the 5er G6x

2027*

[wesleyan92]

This looks really good; perfect timing to replace the iX lease with the 60e.

[440i6MT]

1. It'll be more luxurious, but far heavier
2. It'll be more expensive
3. The badging, at this point, has lost absolutely all meaning
4. It will ideally replace the X7 and have optional 3rd-row seating

[chicagofan00]

Hopefully they treat this interior better than they did for the new X3. 😬

[moriluvatar]

Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere but really is there a matrix for the new numbering and naming system?

[bayarea328xit]

Looks like it is not as tall as the current X5...

Also, I think I see the split rear hatch opening...that would be good thing...

probably air suspension

[Shaw]

Wait, so still no fully electric version?!
Is the iX5 fully electric or BEV?
