Running an X5 in extreme heat

Hi all

I’ve been away from here for a long while having been in a LR Discovery for the last 2.5 years.

I’m about to pull the trigger on a new X5 here in Dubai, before I do I’m interested to hear from anyone running one in a very hot climate, temperatures can hit 50/122 here in the summer, so wondered if anyone has experienced any issues particularly with AC efficiency.

Also noticed on the build sheet S0823 ‘Hot climate version’ does anyone know what this adds to the vehicle ..... afaik this is not a customer option it’s something in the build (if that makes sense)

Typically here it’s rare to factory order, the dealer usually imports in bulk with identical spec which is pretty high and has most options that I would ever want and more so I’m pretty excited, I have a decent choice of colours and interior.

Thoughts appreciated.
