What’s good
- Unmatched road presence: Iconic "Iconic Glow" illuminated kidney grille and wide M Sport stance.
- Torque-rich 620–650 Nm diesel performance: xDrive30d accelerates effortlessly on single-lane highway passes.
- High 212 mm ground clearance: Easily clears estate speed bumps and rough unpaved roads across Nairobi.
- Legendary B58 petrol reliability: The 3.0L xDrive40i engine offers incredible tuning potential and proven mechanical durability.
- Comprehensive trim lineup: From city-friendly E-Hybrids to track-ready Turbo GT models.
- Outstanding E-Hybrid efficiency: 0–100 km/h in 5.0 seconds with 44 km pure EV city commuting capability.

What’s not so good
- Sloping rear roofline: Slightly reduces rearmost headroom for rear passengers over 6 feet tall.
- High CRSP customs valuation: 3.0L and 4.4L engine variants trigger the 35% KRA excise duty tax bracket.
- High CRSP customs valuation: Import duty and taxes represent a significant investment, especially on V8 badges.
- Specialized maintenance requirements: High-voltage battery systems and twin-turbo V8 engines require certified diagnostic tools.
