- I review the all-new 2019 BMW X5 in its xDrive40i trim with the straight-six engine. The fresh interior design, loads of tech and pleasant driving dynamics make for a solid package, but is it enough to overcome the also-new Mercedes GLE? Thanks to BMW for providing this vehicle to me and all the other members of the Automotive Video Association for our second-annual spring event.

I like that intro music ,💯
I wanted to comment on the iDrive situation. Being a BMW enthusiast, I’ve driven everything from the first gen E92 3 series era setup to current. This iDrive is a MASSIVE improvement over the first gen software. I’m also glad they have been incorporating touch capability. Using the controller with one dedicated menu button was an absolute nightmare, so I’m thrilled to see the evolution of this system. Additionally, Apple CarPlay/android auto is available wireless using NFC communication
Best review I’ve seen (and I’ve seen many) on elucidating subtle differences in driving experience.
I work at BMW and I’ve sold the new X5 to people who are 65+ and they’ve never had a single issue navigating the iDrive system.. nor has anyone I’ve met.
There’s no way that’s true, there’s 65 year olds that struggle to even work a DVD player lol.
I know 25 year olds that have the same issues. It's not strictly about age, but also aptitude.
Nice review, Matt! I'm not a big German car guy, but the X5 is nice. Drove a 2022 recently at the Toyota dealership I work at that was peppy, just not my cup of tea.
Thanks for the great review, in your opinion is the Cayenne worth the extra money? Base model Cayenne vs X5 40i.
I've never driven the current generation Cayenne so I can't say, but I think the Cayenne is cooler so I'd probably go for it if you can afford the price jump, but you are paying the "Porsche premium".
Complains about the iDrive interface and never mentions the app.
16:12 for “see how it does”
If BMW has a fault, it's that the technology is very clever but their staff are not particularly well trained in how to use it! I have a 3.0d x-line arriving in July and it does concern me that I will find it frustratingly difficult to learn.
I seen one when I was out! They look beautiful!
“This is heavy,” said Matt Maran and Marty McFly. 😁
The silver part of the aluminum key peels after two years of use
No Faith in Brooklyn by Hoodie Allen that's a throwback right there.
Favorite SUV, don’t @me
Q8 is better imo
NICE Review: 2019 BMW X5 xDrive40i
Did you try Sport + mode at all? If so, did the steering get a bit heavier? How 'bout throttle response? Thanks, Matt!
I tried it briefly, and aside from more aggressive transmission behavior, I didn’t notice much difference.
The Grill looks like a buick, ! The key is big, I can imagine wearing my 514 and where am I going to put that thing, is the size of 1985 erickson cell.
What is the name of that lake you drove that bmw.?
17:51 what, beside the what transmission?
To much for that BMW, I can get a nicer car for that money.
We were in Union, Washington along the Hood Canal.

I’m looking for a quiet ride for long road trips. Is it worth getting the air suspension?
I think so.
Matt Maran Motoring I’m just worried abt the long term reliability of the air suspension - heard they don’t last long and costs thousands to fix.
Yeah, I don't know how reliable these new ones will be but it's a valid concern for sure.

That grill it's so big
When GTR R36?
At least you're a better actor than Sofyan Bey 🤷♂️
Wow! My dream car forever 😃 watching from Philippines 🇵🇭
It really does have an attractive rear end. I agree with you. It has a great rear end, and gives massages. Sounds a lot like my girl friend. Great demo video thank you.
Nice SUV.. But price Ooowee SMH....
But a Ford Escape can park itself
So can the X5. Mine has it.
I love it I just purchased a 2019 BMW X5, 5 days ago it is a great SUV it’s drive very nice, I see a lot of people head turn when I drive by, I am so glad I bought it but it is expensive vehicle but I don’t care about that because you only live once. My opinion there is no other better car out here in the range of a mid size luxury van, no one cannot beat the BMW world class cars.
no one cannot beat? you edited this and still missed that?
Nice 🚙
Hi
Grill looks like Bugs Bunny’s front teeth.
Nice mid trier luxury crossover at reasonable price point!

Emergency Refresh is needed . It doesn't have the WOW factor ...
I would hope a new car "starts right up" ;p
Love your reviews; hate the crossover segment!
$60k + brand new and you still get physical door locks. Wow.
This thing looks so bloated. Their grills just keep getting bigger
Stay away from European cars
$60K+ worth of unreliability, tons of plastic components and high depreciation. Only a sucker would buy or lease this trash. I'm ready for BMW fanboys to attack me for speaking the truth.
Lexus gang approves this message
new technology will always be more unreliable than true and tested, not for the faint of heart for sure. I've read around the internet that BMW has been trying to work on theyre reliability (B58 engine maybe?), and with them working with Toyota on the Supra, I'm inclined to believe it. I don't think that Toyota would put their name on an unreliable car willy nilly. Only time will tell. I've also read that Mercedes is also working on their reliability. Who knows, maybe the Germans finally realized that building shit cars is not good business.
@@alejandrodeaza5891 Stop making excuses. Plastic isn't a new or advance technology. They are still using large amount of plastic parts in areas where they are known to fail quickly, isn't an attempt to improve reliability. BMW, Benz and Audi purposely continues to create cars that start to have lots of problems shortly after their warranty expires. They do this because they know their fanbase cares more about being flashy than having a reliable car, and they are willing to pay the expensive repair costs to drive a BMW, Benz or Audi. BMW, Benz and Audi make a fortune off repairs, so they aren't motivated to improve reliability. Why improve reliability when the suckers will continue to buy and repair your trash?
I guarantee you Toyota isn't allowing BMW to use as many plastic parts and other poor parts like they do in their BMW vehicles. This why BMW isn't assembling the Supra for Toyota. Toyota is using Magna Steyr, one of the largest automotive parts suppliers in the world, to assemble the car for them.

Over 200k miles in my e53 what are you talking about ?
@@aidenp5768 Your name proves you're a delusional BMW fanboy who has a low standard for reliability. I know your BMW e53 had a lot of issues and expensive repairs that you wouldn't have had if you brought a more reliable brand, but you won't admit it. BTW, It's not about just your personal experience. Reliability is determined on a per 100 vehicle ratio. How many mechanical or electrical issues develop per 100 vehicle. BMW has a high unreliability rate per 100 vehicle. That's a fact. Deal with it.
First!
I’m glad we were first! 🤝
