BMW continues to tinker with its ever-larger pot of cars. Next year, we get a four-door X2 coupe that will be priced closer to the X3 than to the X1. Then an X7 will show up in late 2018 and take aim at the Mercedes-Benz GLS-Class and Range Rover. Because there is such a wide gap between the X7 and the future Rolls-Royce Cullinan, BMW has signed off a super-luxurious edition of the X7 with more equipment and more power due in 2019. Expect wall-to-wall interior upgrades and perhaps a plug-in hybrid powertrain. (BMW may also need to bookend the SUV lineup with something smaller than the X1, but such a vehicle could be fully battery-powered if only to avoid the X-zero moniker.)
