FYI.

"Our screening tests found no evidence of a defeat device in the 2016 BMW X5". -EPA spokeswoman Laura Allen

"The vehicle will be going into production shortly at our manufacturing plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina," BMW said. It expects the vehicle will go on sale in January.

Looks like BMW had put a temporary hold on the BMW X5 xDrive35d production for the American and Canadian markets.

From the Reuters article we also learn that 2014 Diesels comprised 5.9% of BMW's total US sales.
