The current F cars are all but complete as do not forget with the upcoming UKL family spawning 23 models between BMW and MINI all have their own designation under F.
And then you have the M cars.

Not enough models?
Yes you would be right. BMW are evaluating another series of model , a niche model in request to a growing demand. Which could relate to an additional concept under each BMW X model allowing potentially three models for example with an X3 and the X4 being the bookends there is room for an additional model that uses the opening and closing chapters but has a twist in the middle.
I love it when you talk about new models.

But... I'm really really struggling to imagine what other type of vehicle you could base off each X model, other than a pick-up version...! Perhaps X models whose core competency is off-road performance, rather than on-road performance - such as the G-class from Mercedes.
