BMW is just bone headed. The SUV-crazed US market gets no diesel. Why?
The diesel X5 is very popular in the US, far more popular than BMW expected, so why no diesel X3? I wouldn't give up my 335i for a diesel, but in an SUV, I honestly wont buy a gasoline model if I could have a diesel, it just makes so much sense. Common BMW wake up already and stop rationing cars. I am keeping my RAV4 for another couple of years until there is a diesel alternative from Q5 or X3. If none of those materialize, I will consider the X5 diesel.
