Future BMW SAV's revealed and one is a hybrid?

Commence Hybrid vs. Diesel arguments in 3, 2, 1....

LOL!

001

I have seen this picture ages ago , and it does look appealing to me. Great news! But i still wouldnt buy a hybrid lol. ( i hope this doesnt turn into a flame war) :D

M53R, now what if it is a hybrid diesel?

I still wouldnt really buy it. I wont even buy a diesel lol. I ll only buy petrol, thats what Im used to, and it costs less here in the U.A.E. :D

That's not it. Look at these:

Fight Fight Fight Fight

Hybrid technology will be around for many years to come.

Hypothetically, would you rather drive a hybrid X5 or a diesel Lexus RX?

And what if the Lexus was powered by old cooking grease?

Ummmm...nope. I literally meant good ol fashioned used Canola oil from the back of your local greasy spoon.

Insinuating that if Lexus jumped on that hippie bandwagon and "revolutionized" running a V8 on old fried chicken grease whether you would still choose the Lexus over the alternative?

Pains me to have to flesh that beauty of a friendly joke out. :)

Oh and not a flame...I swear no allegiance to BMW or Lexus! :)

Wow, this Lexus1 guy is a total idiot. And people wonder why some folks "hate" Lexus. I'll tell you, because of total dumbasses like HIM.

Why are you trying to pick a fight, Will?

I never said I hate Lexus because of dumb fanboys.

lexus do make diesels, the IS220d. and it is one unrefined motor, bmw's and audi's are better.
but hybrid X5 or RX diesel? well, i'd have to say, living in a city, a hybrid X5. now if i had a long commute on motorways, diesel RX.

MDalle, I did not know Lexus uses cloth for it's interiors.

How crude for a luxury brand.

I hate the new Lexus cars I love the 1990 ES & LS those are the best models Lexus ever made

The car in the pic looks great.
Not too many creases (only one, thank god), beautifully proportioned, nice big wheels and great rims - I like it!

Can we throw Lexus1 off a bridge?

He is clearly no older than 7 years old, and is making wild claims that Lexus invented the Hybrid, Lexus will never use diesel etc.

Ban him, if not for his stupidity, then for his insistance on using Caps Lock.

+1

BMW didn't design that, that's an artists rendering trying to guess what BMW is doing. No one has any idea what the X6 is going to look like except the folks working on it. Hopefully it looks nothing like that and looks more like the stretched four door 6-series CGIs that have been floating around for over a year. Those looked pretty sweet.

Or maybe you were the only one who failed to realise the image is computer-generated and merely a 'guess'...

why must it piss him off? why should he care? i mean, wow, your country happens to have some big lakes in it...big deal.
nepal has the biggest mountain in the world, how pissed must you be?
such a stupid and desperate statement...

Everytime Huu posts, my IQ drops. I'm going to stop reading his posts to keep what intelligence I have left.

nice 1 lol.

"I'll stop gloating though, don't want the Europeans to cry when they realize how pathetic their continent is"

could your head be stuck any further up your own arse?

huu... I'm from the UK and I fail to see your point, we may have good universities - but our car industry has gone to shit!

HOLY CRAP! Sure, I called it that this topic would become a hybrid v. diesel flame war but how in the hell did it become a my country is better than your country pissing contest!!!!!!!!!!!????????

Boy it is sure fun to watch.

huu76,

I have a strong feeling your comments linking the quality of European car engineering to their education is more a result of your strong anti-European prejudice, rather than any factual evidence that the technology and engineering aspects of European vehicles are below Japanese and American standards.

For one, I always believed that while you don't really know much about cars in general, you did have an intelligent world view and so some respect could be thrown your way. Now however, I see that your unfounded prejudice has somewhat tainted your credibility.

Maybe you have this strange view that while the Japanese are working away in laboratories with white coats, refining the next generation of Lexus cars, the Europeans are sitting outside smoking and playing darts, hoping to finish testing their new engine sometime next week.

I can assure you the engineering and development processes for European-manufactured cars is very very high, and to speculate otherwise is plain ignorant.

I don't know how much ground clearance your Jeep has, but it seems that you have a 'higher than thou' attitude.

And by the way, sorry for bringing this thread somewhat back to the topic of cars, we all know how out of his depth huu76 is when it comes to the subject.

What is this non-sense Huu_7_months_old ?!

Lexus better than the germans, don't make me laugh.

The Lexuses we have here are the IS220d, and that's pretty much it.
And it's been beatten on just about every level by its german counter parts (performance, fuel efficiency, emissions, space, safety, handling etc. ).

Are you saying U.S-built cars are better than European cars?

Huu76,

Your comments are bordering on idiocy. Good day.

Mathew,
Yes.

Credibility lost.

Proof? I don't see it?

I also believe that your dislike for BMW design has somehow made you think that all European cars are bad.

Seeing as you love American cars so much, here a few words that might make you all jolly and patriotic:

Push-rod, 4-speed Auto, leaf-springs, cast-iron, cup-holders, plastic, retro, 18mpg, backwards, desperate, falling market share, a world-renowned motoring journalist dedicating a whole story on Why American Cars Are Bad, roll-overs, lack of product development...etc.

Makes you feel good inside, doesn't it?
