Pricing can be very variable. I "built" a 2018 X5 PHEV and the 2019 Cayenne PHEV. The Porsche did what all Porsches do, after you finish with adding options to come up with comparable cars. It was $15K more expensive than the BMW. Of course, the BMW had a 4 cyl and the Porsche a V-6. For 2019, both will have 6 cyl. But, Motor Trend estimates the 5-yr retained value of the Porsche at 60% and the BMW at 50%. My experience with my 2013 991.1 Porsche was a total of $3000 for regular maintenance over 4 years and $0 for my 2014 528i. I've driven both the base 4 cyl Macan and the plain jane X2 and I far preferred the Porsche. Perhaps that's my bias to RWD v, FWD. You pays your money and you takes your choices!
