A base X5is 79k, stack on some options and it's easily over 100k. The GLE starts at $73,6 sure it's a bit less than the GV80 but the GV80 gives you more features.
And it's a 2.5 with 300hp and 311lb-ft which is more than sufficient.
Back to the topic, the g90's biggest weakness is luxe-barge buyers don't really care about value. If they did they would have bought a Buick/Cadillac/Acura. Those don't exist anymore because sales were always low. No one really cared of them. They need to come out with the GV90 to compete against the likes of the GLS and X7, the GV80's 3rd row is too tight to be used for your average family. They also need hybrid or PHEV powertrains just to help with the cost at the pumps.
