What do you know about the BMW X5 xDrive45e (hybrid)?

---

1) BMW has gone full retard with its vehicle naming scheme.
2) It's a plug-in hybrid and will get you about 30 miles of electric driving (rated, probably less in real driving). If you have a short commute, it may save you some trips to the gas station, at the expense of having to plug your car in every night like you do your phone
3) It's fast, especially for a big SUV
4) It's heavy, so it won't really drive "like a BMW" if you care about that
5) Don't own it without a warranty--either manufacturer's new vehicle warranty or CPO.
