For buyers after serene luxury with a mischievous streak, it pampers rear-seat occupants while reminding the driver that BMW still knows how to make a big car feel alive.

It’s the sort of truck that laughs at mud on the weekend and performs like a sensible daily driver during the week, making it an easy sell for buyers who want capability without theatrics.
