My mom is pro Mercedes. She has the GLE. I will always favor BMW more so we have a little rivalry going on there. I have a 50-50 love hate relationship with BMW and Lexus.
Just bought the 2025 X5 M6.0 - with all the extras!! Runs like a ROCKET, looks great and there’s NOTHING I’d change about it. This is my 8th X5 since 2005. Love BMW - and I’ve had 3 Mercedes SUVs - not even close to BMW. Thanks for the review - it hits the mark.
Wow, thanks for the review… It solidifies my decison that I had just purchased one: X5 xDrive40i, Carbon Black Metallic on Coffee.. I’m due to ride it in the next couple of weeks. Woohoo, can’t wait.
You will love it. The inline six is phenomenal. People that whine and bitch about these and their buyers are either wildly ignorant, or simply don’t or can’t pay for it. There is a reason people buy Toyotas, too - nothing wrong with that. But comparing Toyota or Ford to BMW is absurd.
I appreciate BMW for having features/options like Digital Key, 4-piston front calipers, LED cornering lights, the Executive pkg with glass controls & LED pano roof, soft/supple leather, Bowers & Wilkins Diamond audio and NO black plastic on the exterior unlike the GLE.
The bmw X5 is the perfect SUV. I mean that. If I could afford any one of them, I would still get the 6 cylinder because it doesn’t need more. 4.5 seconds 0 to 60 is amazing standard. The smoothness. The refinement. It’s perfect.
Have been driving BMWs since 2005. in the meantime, over 11 cars. My daily-driver is the 2021 X3 30e which has the 2 liter engine, accelerates however like a Rocket. I test drove the Mercedes GLC before deciding to stay with BMW. The Mercedes was all plastic inside. All the metal-looking bits are plastic. In BMW, they’re all metal. The overall finish in BMW is vastly superior. The onboard systems, the I-Drive for example, is the best in any car. Great vid bro 👍
I've been considering the 2025 X5 M60i. I've heard some bad things about the N63 v8 engine at least up to the 2017 engines. I've been researching the newer 2023,24, and 25 N63 v8's and here is what I've found so far. They reccomend oil changes every 5000 miles, inspect the turbocharger for oil and water leaks and blueing and the cooling system for leaks everytime you do an oil change. Just reading that it seems like BMW has NOT resolved the issues with the N63 v8 engine. I want reliability and a vehicle that does not overheat or lose oil even if it idles in 90 degree weather for hours.
I have the 2024. One of my biggest complaints is when you are using a maps app if you need to change anything like air conditioning the screen changes. You have to make sure not to mess with it if you need to pay attention to the map. It’s really annoying!
@@apw2607 Good point...it unfortunately does if using Apple Carplay and Google Maps...the other maps (built in or Apple) will display as you noted....but Google doesn't unless using an Android phone.
I watch a lot of car content on UA-cam and this is my first time watching you. I think you did a very good job and I am going to watch more of your content.
Another concern with the N63 v8 engine seemed to be carbon buildup unless you stay on the highway at highway speeds. They do NOT recommend using it for around town stop and go traffic.
Nice vid. I had an x5 yrs ago and became a money pit w 75k miles on it. Let’s cut to chase here. I’d like to fall in love w x5 again. Seems nice. Is this car a perfect suv if you lease and flip it every 2-3 years and forget owning for many or no? Everyone knows bmws are great when new but once you hit 50k miles it seems like someone in Germany presses a button and car starts leaking oil. Major expensive repairs are needed etc. is this still the case here now? Thanks
Actually that’s outdated for this current generation of X5, if you look at consumer reports it’s pretty reliable. Coming from someone who also owned a previous generation, I understand the concern.
@@redzoom7857 Understood thanks. Any feedback on long term reliability with the “newer” X5’s? I dont lease and dont want to get back into a complete money pit again with my car.
That’s exactly how it happened with my 2019 X5. Right after the warranty was over and I hit the 50K miles, the transfer case and the starter failed. I would recommend to choose leasing for the prospective buyers.
@@Hilmi-uz4ft So many people I know who have BMW’s have said exact same thing even still. Not sure how/why CR and other publications give the X5 their top midsize luxury SUV award. I dont get it. Bought and paid for reviews? Agree, if leasing the car who cares right, trade it in after 2-3 years, get a new one. I just dont want the headaches again or the expense. It’s strange but I’m still researching on the 2024/25 X5 long term reliability reports. I want to hear from people who actually have 50+k miles on theirs and get some feedback. I wish BMW would hire people from Lexus to build and get the parts from. BMW can keep their engines and suspension platforms but everything else, turn it over to Lexus for long term reliability.
Does anyone on here have an older X5? I'm wondering how long these things last or if most of you just lease them and move on. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I have the 50e. Amazing car!! But I got to give it to Merc. It is quieter inside. Too much wind and road noise inside of the X5 while the GLE is super quiet inside.
Great video! Also hello to my fellow Milwaukee area Wisconsin. I follow so many car UA-camrs from the East Coast in West Coast and it’s real nice to finally find you guys on here. I go to road America often here and there, maybe someday we can meet. Subscribed.
thanks for the local love! I'll actually be doing the jumbotron interviews with the podium finishers at RA for Indycar, IMSA, vintage, and MotoAmerica weekends!
I have pre-LCI X5 2023, purchased it at the time when LCI was already available. Love it much more than LCI. Dravit grey with M sport package looks dashing
Dude.. amazing review!! Not because I am a fan of X5 but genuinely you didn't stop talking and showed almost everything. 1 suggestion - couple of things you said was not correct so may be prepare well before e.g. no rear reclining seats, if you get executive package, it comes with it
Didn’t know that…I’ve never seen a pic of the rear seats with controls…literally hundreds of pics don’t show it, is it possible the exec. Pkg is that rare? (Or maybe they just added it back in for 2025 and I’ve been looking at pre-2025?)
What a funny intro! Miss your content Matt. (Not that you disappeared, I did! 😊) Love this X5 and I believe I even asked a while ago if you could review it and its PHEV version, so thanks. Btw, are we ever going to see your capless head? LOL.
I haven’t forgot about your PHEV request! I asked about one this week and they just never have them on the lot long enough! Working with my BMW rep to see if I can find one in the media fleet somewhere
I've owned two 2025 X-5s M Sport within a month of each other. Traded-in the first with 150 miles, and took a $5K haircut doing so on the purchase of number two 2025 X-5. The reason being seat comfort, the first had ventilated seats, and that alone made for the trade in. The ventilated seats are horribly designed to retain BMW's legendary seat comfort, it's believed the ventilation motors as well as the fabric's thickness contribute to the seats' wooden bus bench characteristics. You are well advised to forgo this option. As for the fabric, it is believed that he presenter's leather comments are incorrect, rather Sensafin is a man-made BMW material, and interestingly its different colors vary the fabric's drape and softness. For example the first X-5's interior material was Cognac and in comparison to the second X-5's Silverstone it was stiff and and unyielding to the touch. As for BMW's control interfaces, the thought of flashy confusion comes to mind. The 2025 X-5 were not the first X-5s I've owned, driving both a 2008 and 2016 M sport versions bought new and driven close to 100,000 miles. The engine and transmissions mating response of all years exceptional. The choice of exterior color change for the better from Alpine White to Dravit Grey Metallic and lesson here is to go darker.
You are NOT wrong on the seats! I have a 2024 with ventilation and WOW, they are borderline rock solid. The bolstering on the bottom cushion combined with the hard surface makes for a terrible seat....I despise mine after the first 2k miles.
I had an x5 years ago. Loved it new. Hated it when I got to around 70k miles. It started bleeding oil all over place. Was expensive to maintain. You mentioned in video in beginning that this car is reliable. Is this accurate? I read were the x5 still has one of the worst depreciation rates out there. Is this still true? On one hand consumer reports and others rate it very very good. My concern is reliability and depreciation value. For me it’s this or a lexus. Not sure. They’re beautiful when new but I’m scared to jump back into another money pit. Thanks
Do all BMW SUVs have the different drive modes? I mostly use Efficient mode on my X1 and it's amazing. It still gives me the power and also ~30mpg in mostly mix urban driving and up to 40mpg long trip highway (I regularly drive 130 miles one way trip on weekends where around 110 miles of it are highway and the 20 miles split between before and after exiting highway).
as a owner of x5..here are worst things that i found 1. clamshell trunk. when only the top is open, u will find urself standing too close to the trunk that makes ur foot to trigger kick close sensor 2. walk close, away auto lock unlock option is freaking annoying if u r at home since they removed "exclude home" option. 3. u have to hold the trunk button to close. not press and release...press and Hold~! 4. engine shut off when u open the door. when my families r waiting in the car I need to open the door -> wait few sec.->turn the engine on-> then step out.
If you have the 40i, you can touch the gas pedal quickly to start the engine again...THEN when you open the door, it will not shut off. It only does this IF the engine ASS is engaged and you open the door. I know it is different on the X50e though.
@@abell255 I sincerely thank you for giving me this information. It is extremely helpful to me because, it is very hard and expensive to get a BMW these days, even used, with the bowers and Wilkins. I am an audio file and value my music. Potentially have saved a lot of money and heartache.
Is there a reason that now BMW USA doesn’t provide FULL adaptive LED lights in the US with all the new LCI models? Another thing that BMW eliminated for the US. There is no swiveling function (curve adapt). This means, when you turn your steering wheel to the left or right, the lights don’t turn to the bend. You would think each year it should get better and not worse. Why did they remove the BMW “M” clip from the rear calipers? No rear door comfort access? No rear door puddle lights? Seriously?
@microbiologycory10 probably coz of supply chain issues they stopped it. Hope not because of cost cutting. He also mentioned heated and cooled cup holders but those are not available either 😢

@@dwnshft I've been interested in the 45e / 50e for a while, especially since it comes with the air suspension, but a BMW mechanic on the forums said to stay away -- some sort of issue with the batteries / charging system and they have to get towed in.
GLE in EU performance is trash. Poor engine. X5 is amazing . Major downside is the driving assistant always to interrupt, sometimes waring sounds at weird moments , agressieve stops ....
I just purchased a 2024 X5 M Sport package in Brooklyn Gray. I had a 2018 X5 (for almost 5 years) and traded it in for a Lexus RX 350 F Sport. BORING car. I kept it for 1.5 years and traded it in the new 2024 X5. I love the new X5 ... my only gripe is the ridiculously small A/C vents. I have to put the power on high (level 5) or one notch below high (level 4) to try to keep the car cool inside the cabin. MAJOR flaw in design. I also miss the hard buttons for climate control and the heated steering wheel.
I have scrutinized, reviewed picked apart and seen every piece of data concerning the 2019 to current base BMW X5! And it is hands down the best overall luxury midsized suv with the best performance driving experience, aside the Porsche Cayenne, and I’m not talking the X5 M Competition either!

Great review.
thanks!
as a owner of x5..here are worst things that i found
1. clamshell trunk. when only the top is open, u will find urself standing too close to the trunk that makes ur foot to trigger kick close sensor
2. walk close, away auto lock unlock option is freaking annoying if u r at home since they removed "exclude home" option.
3. u have to hold the trunk button to close. not press and release...press and Hold~!
4. engine shut off when u open the door. when my families r waiting in the car I need to open the door -> wait few sec.->turn the engine on-> then step out.

so, I have a 2020 X5 which I designed myself. I would LOVE To upgrade BUT you canNOT get the B&W audio unless you the the M! WTF?!

Is there a reason that now BMW USA doesn’t provide FULL adaptive LED lights in the US with all the new LCI models? Another thing that BMW eliminated for the US.

You would think each year it should get better and not worse. Why did they remove the BMW “M” clip from the rear calipers? No rear door comfort access? No rear door puddle lights? Seriously?
What’s the manufacturing color here?
Honestly, the fact that the X5 is available with AWD or RWD and the GLE is only available with AWD shouldn't be one of the worst things about the X5.
I want an X5 but to get it to look like that you are no where near $65k 😢
Love my boy X5 M50i😊

I keep hearing there's a 3-row X5... impossible, right?
GLE in EU performance is trash. Poor engine. X5 is amazing . Major downside is the driving assistant always to interrupt, sometimes waring sounds at weird moments , agressieve stops ....
Saying X5 has “3 worst…” is like saying Lebron has a weakness or a flaw in his game.
I just purchased a 2024 X5 M Sport package in Brooklyn Gray. I had a 2018 X5 (for almost 5 years) and traded it in for a Lexus RX 350 F Sport. BORING car. I kept it for 1.5 years and traded it in the new 2024 X5. I love the new X5 ... my only gripe is the ridiculously small A/C vents. I have to put the power on high (level 5) or one notch below high (level 4) to try to keep the car cool inside the cabin. MAJOR flaw in design. I also miss the hard buttons for climate control and the heated steering wheel.

Many people say that it’s a junk when you buy a used one . Is it not reliable.
Okay, don’t buy!

I have scrutinized, reviewed picked apart and seen every piece of data concerning the 2019 to current base BMW X5!
And it is hands down the best overall luxury midsized suv with the best performance driving experience, aside the Porsche Cayenne, and I’m not talking the X5 M Competition either!
I love the X5 but the driver seat just feels a bit small for such a big car.
Comfort seats would solve that
