The perfect SUV for people who either can't afford a Bentayga, or think it isn't ugly enough.

did they think big grille = status symbol?

I hope this is toned down a before it's launched. I like BMW SUV's but this is a bit too much.

Looks better than the X6....but IMO that still is not saying much.

The grills are just pure bad, and it looks narrow for a full size SUV.

I even see LX design out of this one, and the overall shape is like the Navigator.

I won't put my money on this at all.

Hideous design especially considering the beautiful 8series and Z4 concepts.

BMW normally have good-looking concept cars, not this one.

It's the tall kidney grill and the tusks on the sides that kinda kills it.
