Some limited edition models announced by BMW for the X5, X6 and X7.

X5 Vermillion Limited Edition US Market Info:

The 2022 BMW X5 Black Vermilion Edition

• Limited Edition BMW X5 xDrive40i with exclusive content.
• Approximately 350 units reserved for the U.S. market.
• MSRP of $82,300 plus $995 Destination.
• U.S. production scheduled for September – December 2021.

As spearheads of the BMW X model range, the BMW X5, BMW X6 and BMW X7 impress with a high level of comfort and luxury, supreme performance and pronounced dynamic handling capabilities. The two Sports Activity Vehicles (SAV) and the Sports Activity Coupe (SAC) combine these attributes with an equally dynamic, elegant and unmistakably distinctive design. New highlights are the BMW X5 and BMW X6 Black Vermilion editions featuring exclusive equipment details. The BMW X7 edition in Frozen Black metallic combines impressive options into an exclusive package.

In 2020 alone and with almost 250,000 units sold worldwide, the SAV/SAC trio from Spartanburg, USA, contributed decisively towards the success of the BMW brand. Around every eighth newly delivered BMW model was a BMW X5, X6 or X7.

All three edition models go on sale with all engines available for each of their original models. They can be ordered with immediate effect, with the market launch beginning in August 2021. Prices in Germany start at 93,200 Euros for the BMW X5 Black Vermilion, 100,700 Euros for the BMW X6 Black Vermilion and 108,700 Euros for the BMW X7 in Frozen Black metallic (each including 19% sales tax).

Particularly striking: BMW X5 and X6 Black Vermilion edition.
The central focus of the Black Vermilion edition is the interplay between the colours black and red. For example, the BMW double kidney grille with model-specific red bars creates an effective contrast to the BMW Individual special paint finish Frozen Black metallic. On the BMW X6 Black Vermilion this visual highlight is expressed in a particularly impressive way in combination with its kidney grille Iconic Glow. The M headlights Shadow Line with BMW laser light, including accented lighting with blue X signature, complete the distinctive look of the front end. Moreover, on the exterior, the M Sport Package emphasises the dynamic character of the BMW X5 and X6 Black Vermilion editions. It comprises, among other things, specific front and rear aprons as well as the M high-gloss Shadow Line with extended options. Behind the Orbit Grey matt, 22-inch, double-spoke 742 M light alloy wheels with mixed tyres designed exclusively for these edition models, red high-gloss M Sport brake callipers stand out as a striking visual highlight.

In the interior of the BMW X5 and BMW X6 Black Vermilion editions the M Alcantara Anthracite roof liner provides for an exceptionally sophisticated ambience. A finely crafted Edition logo on the cupholder cover in BMW Individual black piano finish emphasises the limited model’s exclusiveness. The glass application Crafted Clarity on the iDrive Controller, the automatic gear selector and Start/Stop button, as well as the BMW Individual precious wood interior trim Fineline Black with aluminium inlays provide additional sophisticated accents. Driver and front seat passenger travel in comfort seats offering a multitude of adjustment options. The BMW Individual full leather trim Merino Black is additionally enhanced by edition-specific red contrast stitching for both the driver’s seat and front passenger seat. Inside the BMW X5 Black Vermilion, the red accents are also to be found on the rear seats. Likewise, the edging on both the front and rear floor mats is finished in red. Sun-protective glass with more deeply tinted rear windows beyond the B-pillar enhances passenger privacy whilst blending in harmoniously with the sporty and dynamic exterior design.

BMW X7 edition in Frozen Black metallic – individual and expressive.
Like the Black Vermilion editions, the new BMW X7 edition also has the BMW Individual special paint finish Frozen Black metallic, dispensing, however, with details in contrasting colour. The BMW M Sport brake callipers of the edition-specific, 22-inch BMW Individual Y-spoke 758 I alloy wheels in Orbit Grey matt are finished in high gloss black. Combined with the M Sport Package and the M High Gloss Shadow Line with extended options, it is this colour restraint in particular that make the 5.15-metre long and over 2-metre wide seven-seater look even more impressive. The interior of the BMW X7 edition in Frozen Black metallic provides for an elegantly discreet atmosphere thanks to the M Alcantara Anthracite roof liner, the glass application Crafted Clarity and sun-protection glass.

Not sure if the Design staff is smoking crack, but I believe the management board should investigate the entire staff.

I wish they would stop. The latest trend is revolting LOL.

[SlickShift]

Wow. That is atrocious.

BMW engineers make masterpieces and then let somebody in the design department F### it up. Red grill? For real??

Now we just have to wait until they decide to give the 4-series the same treatment.

[Kamil.EA]

Ohhh boy! Who approved this?who though this is a good looking car?

[MystroX5]

With all the limited options and part shortages, are these models going to be hobbled by reduce standard features and options? Pretty much kills any interest in these if the running with reduced options. Your special edition isn’t so special with base audio, no soft close doors, charging pad, acoustic glass, alcantara headliner, etc….

yikes...

The biggest issue is that these types of vehicles are driven by market demand. BMW is simply doing what the market asks of it. The ugly designs, big grills, tacky add ons, M badges on everything, and everything else that's an affront to the traditional BMW aficionado is simply catering to the larger "market". The SUV's sales demonstrate all of this, as do the lack of sales of manually equipped cars and the Z4. Even the top end M8 isn't exactly a sales success by most standards. Those of us that truly love the brand, and get excited by the purist nature of rear wheel drive, manually equipped, sport coupes and roadsters, are not the majority of buyers. I'm fairly good friends with the sales associate that has looked after me for 10 years and he certainly confirms this. It is truly unfortunate that BMW can't cater to both markets, but the cost of development of a car loved by the purists makes it either unprofitable or way to expensive to be able to purchased by the "average" enthusiast buyer. BMW is likely going to sell a lot of second generation M2's, some of it represented by buyers (like me) who see this as the last of its kind. I have accepted that the G87 will be my last RWD 6 speed spontaneous combustion engine equipped factory ordered BMW I will ever have. It's why I've given some thought to buying 2 and putting one away along with the 1M I have safely tucked away.

[VisionJetPilot]

Do we know when the website will show the 2022 models and this option?

[e90335e36m3]

Let's highlight arguably the most polarizing element of the car, the grilles. Let's include gaudy features like a crystal shifter.

BMW definitely has focus groups and studies which suggest that such features are cool, so even though the only people commenting about how vile they are are the enthusiasts, BMW know they will sell and doesn't give two shits about what the enthusiasts think.

These design elements speak more about the general population at large than BMW.

I guess a crystal shifter will definitely get more likes on Instagram than a plain leather one.

Here's some eye bleach to counter act the hideous cars on the first page. They're from a time when BMW knew how to design cars:

My thoughts exactly.

[PLF69]

Put a black grill on while you own it, put the red one back at resell/lease end, resell black grill or keep for next X5.

[Blindside_137]

Is someone going to tell them that the colored grille fad was never a good idea?

And just think in today’s world no one wants a mid size sport sedan or even almost any car for that matter. BMW’s design team is doing their best to ruin the M cars they are producing. Let’s take a handsome front end on a good performance M3/M4 and destroy it for the next generation and see if we can completely drive the already small minorities of sport sedan enthusiast away. They will “learn to accept the design” like wearing a corrective orthopedic back brace.

Looks cool as most vehicles in black, but I would leave out the red on grill and the signature or find another place for it. Not aimed at North American market?
