The shorter lifecycle is due to the introduction of the new CLAR cluster Architecture which would mean the existing model would not be able to maintain from a manufacturing perspective as well as a competitive position especially when the new X3 Also move to cluster Architecture.

Both the X5 and BMW 3er Sedan will be replaced in the fourth quarter of 2018.
