I would say the X7 was criticized much more than the X5 but in either case they both appeal to a much broader audience and are much more versatile vehicles which helps drive their sales numbers over a luxury two door coupe. I don't think the grill design has much if anything to do with the success or flop of any of them in this case. Tbh I don't even really know who the target demographic of the 8 series is supposed to be.
