We liked everything but the ride, even caused my dog to throw up and cry/bark the whole time (wife brings him to work with her) which no other SUV has done before. In the end she decided its better to not try and mix a sports car with practicality (so she kept the M2 for weekends - now totaled) and the GM of my MB dealer that I'm friends with was selling his wife's GLC so she got that for her and the dog. Other than the ride, excellent vehicle.
Interesting!

The main reason for me to getting an SUV is my dog too.

Drove the X3 & X4 M with no issues, waiting for the X5 45e.
The 45e would have been an excellent choice for us had BMW hurried up and brought it to the US sooner. It checks all our boxes. Wife's been wanting an EV but for trips it wouldn't suffice so a PHEV would be perfect. I'm definitely going to check them out at the end of the current X5's production run in a few years.
