Some PHEVs are clearly optimized for performance. Others strive for ultimate efficiency. The X5 xDrive 45e doesn't really fit into either category—it's not the performance flagship of its lineup, and in hybrid mode it can't match the fuel economy of the non-hybrid. Where it makes its case is as a part-time EV, silently plying the suburbs and school drop-off lines, until it's time to light the fuse on 389 horsepower and drive it like a BMW.
