***NEW*** MY2016 Order Guide Canada- X5 40e and Diesel
Here is the MY2016 Order Guide for Canadian 40e and Diesel (as well as 35i and 50i).
The 2016 X5d is later in this bulletin after the e drive X5. On the 40e: I have a feeling that the first month of production will be launch editions so we would not be able to amend them. Also note that the 40e will have mechanical steering not the electronic power steering. There is also an incentive (Rebate) for some provinces. |

Looks like diesel production begins in Jan 16

That's good news for you guys. I guess you'll go for the Diesel if production starts up in a few weeks in December. Is this a new diesel engine?

So here's an analogy. Let me know if it makes sense to you guys:
The Diesel premium over a gasoline model is $1,500 in Canada. So at $50 a month more on gas vs diesel, it will be 2.5 years before we break even with the initial value. Correct? now adding the Time Value of Money to the equation, it would probably stretch my break even point to 3 years... which is the time to move up to X7... Who's with this and who is not? |

The second thing to consider is the residual itself, the diesels tend to have a higher residual hence a lower lease payment. So it could easily be a small difference in payment, around $20 per month I would guess. but it would be easy to find by getting a quote on identical cars, but one being a diesel and the other a gas model. Hope that made sense!

I think arguments can be made for either engine and I'm not going to start. There is probably a thread on the 35i vs Diesel vs 40e vs 5.0 vs M. Regardless, I think they're great cars and we are fortunate that we have the money to drive them.

But what I will say is interesting is that there is quite a high take rate on the 35i still. I find it interesting because if you pay attention to all the Benz SUVs, you barely see anything other than their 350 bluetec models. Every GL I see is a GL 350, and every ML I see is a ML350. You very rarely see a GL or ML 450 (their 6 cylinder gas model). I asked a friend who sells Mercedes and he says he sells 1 gas 6 cylinder model for every 10 or so diesel models. On another note, we just picked up my wife's 2016 full size RR and found out they actually discontinued the 6 cylinder gas model for the full size, it is still available for the RR Sport, but not the full size. They said the take rate would be so small in comparison to the diesel that they stopped production for 2016 models.

My apologies. I shouldn't be so harsh on MB. I actually do like them. They make my X5 look so good. I like getting beside them.

But I do agree with you on the higher residual value of diesel...it even applies to resell value. The only down side is the unclear delivery time of diesel...by the looks of it it is somewhere between January and February... |

By the sounds of it they'll be a lot of MB's lined up for that one Diesel pump. Plan accordingly.

There are two things that I personally like a lot about our X35d -
- Torque, 429lb/ft, it's almost as good V8 X50i with 480lb/ft, it feels great! - Paying less or same for diesel as regular gas and then driving in the city with 21 MPG (11L/100KM), and I don't know what highway numbers are. There's one thing that I personally dislike about out X35d - - Engine sounds like a tractor I'd pick diesel again if I had to, hopefully M50d the next time |
