This car will sell well at home and that’s all they really need. BMW has always had an “ehh” approach to selling waggons elsewhere; there’s little point, that’s what SUVs are for really. |
Wagons are best fit for families that travel a lot on european authobahns. They outshine SUVs primarily in driving agility, high-speed performance and high-speed economy. SUVs are practical and spacious but their fuel consumption goes through the roof when you push them over 130kmh compared to wagons.
Wagons lose their edge over SUVs in countries where long distance high speed driving is impossible due to low speed limits or poor road infrastructure.
All this said, G21 looks promising. Can't wait to see it in March.
