I have a 528 lease expiring on 5/30/2018, with the potential for a 3 month pull-forward in March. Wife's car which I am going to replace with an X5 40e. The mention of an upgraded powertrain to the X5 45e (and 745e should have the same specs) is VERY interesting. I've been expecting the G05 to have the higher capacity battery expected in the i3, but no details, yet. An increase in electric range of 50% would make all the difference for my wife's commute and is very attractive. It comes down to whether I take advantage of what I expect will be deals on a close-out 2018 next June, or extending the 528 lease for a G05 in Nov 2019. As such, I'll following any info on this new powertrain avidly. Does anyone have anything to offer about this upgrade? I'm hoping that info on the 745e will be available before the X5 45e, since it's probably an LCI, as contrasted to a completely new model. They should be the same.
