PHEV Version

According to another Blog that lists when models are coming up, the PHEV version of the G05 is due for 2020. No mention of an X5 45e in the current releases. Anyone have any idea if this model will release before late 2019? One supposes that if it were a 2019 release, it would use the same battery type as the 2019 i3, which roughly doubles the capacity of that of the 2014-2016 models. The all-electric X3 is also set as a 2020 model. Will both of these (and a replacement for the 330e) be the last gasp of current battery technology before solid state batteries in 2022?

I, too, wish that the current dimentions had been used and left the growth to the X7. An inch longer and taller is not a deal breaker, but nearly 3 inches wider might be. Garage is pretty tight with the X5 40e, now.
