nah, think X5 M50i starting msrp for the base model and add 10K for the long range model.
no way BMW can deliver a comparably priced BEV SUV with the same range as model X. their architecture, battery chemistry, BMS, motor tech, bev assembly line..etc are either behind what tesla can currently do or more expensive in cost.
if it's got the same range, price will be $10k more. if it's the same price, range will be ~100 miles less. add "luxury brand badge" and "premium interior materials" to make up the difference and convince buyers.
Honestly outlook isn't great for this car, expect sales numbers to be somewhere between the Ipace and etron.
