I have some skin the game as I own a E70 X5d. I've owned the car for 4 years now, and I have decided to transition my next family car to a PHEV regardless. (I'm buying the XC90 T8 over the Cayenne SEH and the new X5 45e).
At least with my driving habits, it makes a lot of sense to buy a PHEV over a diesel. Not to mention, almost every emissions component has been replace once by BMW already. The PHEV is likely much more reliable.
The ONLY reason you'll want a diesel these days is to pull something, and they will always have a V8 application to pull what you need. PHEVs today will completely smash any MPG figures of diesels both in the city and on the highway.
