Please understand. By claiming that BMW and Merc do not make good SUVs you lost all the credibility. It is clear that you are here to troll.

BMW catches up to Merc since it has more optimal gearing at high speeds.

Ideally it would be awesome if BMW put V8 in X3. That would be bonkers

Might come off as blasphemy, but if they took a page out of Merc's book and implemented an electric motor to account for the turbo lag from start off…that'll be bonkers

You mean boost threshold, lag is a different thing.

He means mild hybrid to improve the low end torque. Like the new GLE.
