I'm Sorry. But what do you mean with on top?

I know F15 has batteries instead of 3rd row. I'm hoping G05 have a better design like the XC90
Lol, I don't know why.
All my comment from yesterday afternoon are all a bit sarcastic.

What I meant, so far, BMW has been putting battery where there are used to be a useful space.

F10 AH5, behind the back seat, cutting the trunk space into 30% smaller.
F15 X5, below the trunk or where 3rd row supposed to be. Increased the height of the trunk base, cutting the trunk space into 10% smaller.
G30 530e, below the trunk space, cutting the trunk space into 25% smaller.

I don't think BMW is designed G05 X5 with battery compartment in mind. Unlike i3 or i8, they design the car around the battery enclosure.
