BMW calls it the PAS which stands for Progressive Activity Sedan; we prefer to call it a 5-Series fastback with a tad of SUV and MPV elements. Anyway you call it, the PAS is yet another attempt from BMW to broaden its line-up with an all-new model following the X6 and it will go into production in 2009 or 2010. The PAS will be based on the underpinings of the 5-Series, so we should expect more or less the same engine range. As Autocar rightfully points out in the spy video, we’ll probably get a glimpse of the car in the form of a concept either this year at the Paris Show in SeptemberVia: Youtube , Source: Autocar

Can someone explain what the difference would be between this and the 5 series wagon? And has BMW abandoned the 7 passenger model due to the lack of success of the MB R-class?
I saw a rendering of this and it looked like the X6 without all the excessive sheetmetal, in other words, more NORMAL. Probably that´s why BMW decided to launch the X6 first, ´cos the X6 looks like PAS on steroids. The no one would have even looked at the x6.
