BMW Australia will launch its new generation of 'eDrive' plug-in hybrid models with a price premium that will put them on par with similarly-specced diesels. The incoming BMW X5 xDrive40e is expected to be priced and specced similarly to the $118,900 X5 xDrive40d.
That will give BMW a significant price advantage over the only other plug-in hybrid luxury SUV in the X5's size category, with the Porsche Cayenne S e-Hybrid retailing for $140,800.
For the BMW 330e (below), the price ballpark is somewhere between the high-$60k and mid-$70k region.
