Immediately before we got the BMW X5 xDrive50e, we had a Jaguar F-PACE P400.

I was asked recently how I liked the P400. I did really like it while we owned it, but after less than a week of owning the X5, I can tell that it's on another level.

Example #1: Backing out of our driveway is downhill and turning, so the various wheels of the car have different loads as the car transitions from the driveway to the street. The jag would creak ever so slightly as it negotiated the ramp. The X5 is rock solid. No creaking at all.

Example #2: Driving the Jag over rough pavement (i.e., everywhere in California), from the drivers seat, you could observe the hood shimmy left and right over the bumps. The X5, again, is rock solid.

Example #3: Seat memory tied to key. Nuf said.
