So, what we have in the end:
1. Loaded Telluride 46,000+10,000=$56,000
2. Loaded X5 45e 82,000-10%MSRP-$7,500 EV Tax credit= $66,300.
Not that much difference is between two cars. Given the numbers above I would buy X5 again, again and again..
Don't forget the BMW rebates and any local/state incentives. For example, I got $3500 from BMW (Financing + Loyalty/Conquest) + $500 for PenFed for a total of $4000 right there at the dealer. Could be $1500 in my state if you buy at a "participating dealer". BMWCCA has $1000. Local utilities also tend to have something for buying an EV.
