BMWs Are Stars Of The No-show

When company bosses want to reveal a new car at a motor show such as Geneva, it's usually there on stage. But BMW does things differently - it announced not one but two models, and neither of them was there.

09th March 2005

Chairman Helmut Panke explained: "BMW will be further expanding with two completely new, independent model series." According to our sources, both will be based on the next-generation X5, itself due for launch in 2007.

The first will be a daring coup΃© that will mark a step for-ward from 2001's Xcoup΃© concept. It will blend the ride height and lofty driving position of an SUV with the handling and looks of a sporty two-door model. Meanwhile, the second car is likely to be a more practical large family vehicle.
