Special thanks to our Patrons for their support of the channel! What is your favorite feature of the new X5?
Increased HP from 335 to 375 in base model!
The upgrade to 50e, best of all worlds. BMW claims 40 miles EV, seeing 50+ EV real world, over 50mpg in hybrid, & 483 HP when you want it! Easily 0-60 in 4.5 seconds, then back to sleeper mode
I have one on order. My understanding is that the trailer hitch option does away with the foot activated opener in the back. That’s why it wouldn’t open.
Hmmmmmm you might be right👀
That is correct. We have the hitch and I wished I had known about it taking away the foot activator
@@maxaudi2804 I'm a cyclist, so it was a no-brainer for me. I have to have the hitch.
How do you like it so far? I got one and tbh I kinda regret getting rid of my 22 M50i for it. I don’t like the huge screen, I don’t like the shifter, I don’t like the day time running lamps looking at it from the front, and I don’t like the grille as it looks so spaced out and open. In all honesty I feel like I would trade it in for the 23 as I usually keep my cars until 90k miles anyway.
You are correct. The trailer hitch removes the sensor. When we ordered our X7 the sales guy let us know in advance it wouldn’t be there.
Thanks for sharing video. Great job
Wow!!! Best review to date 👍👍
Happy to see a good M60i review! I ordered and just received my M60i in the same color, but with tartufo, piano black trim and the V spoke wheels shown in the 360 degree view here :). Loving it so far!
awesome!
You’ve answered two questions I had about my 2024 x5. First one was what those little dots were on the moonroof. After watching this video I started my car for the first time at night and got a pleasant surprise and the answer to what those dots were.
The second was that I had seen another video which showed the power of the car when driving,but I didn’t know you had to be in sport mode to see that.
Had mine a little over a week and am loving the fact every time I get in it I find something new.
that's awesome! enjoy!
the trunk is not handsfree if you add tow hitch, it removes that feature
short and useful. tnx👌
🙏
Good review. I have nearly the same spec. Pull handles in the back to drop the back seats. Four wheel steering is a nice addition. I keep forgetting about the boost function! Need to try it.
Sprint has more of an impact than I was expecting
Cool learnt about the boost mode, that's cool.
😎👍
You can stay with the M60 and add the small M emblems sold at the dealership to the side fenders. Did that with the M40i by looking up the Euro specifications for placement.
Nice machine
Saw this vehicle at the BMW IA in West Allis, WI. Very nice as you have shown. Those wheels are a problem in the Midwest but if you are buying something of this caliber, you should expect to replace the summers often and run winters in our climate. Thanks for the comprehensive review!
cool you got to see the exact car!
True, add about $4-5K for winter wheels and tires. Or, just get the 20's or 21's. Still awesome.
I’m picking up mine tomorrow
I will have the 22 inch black with spare. I live in New Jersey and I’m wondering why can’t an old season be used it’s non-run flat ?
Also, has anyone here had any problems with the screen and electronics that’s the only thing that is making me hesitant as far as glitches and problems)
It’s a quick kick in the middle for beamers to open the trunk :) sexy ride!
🙏
Only without tow hitch
The reason why the kick to open the trunk didn't work is because of the tow hitch option. It deletes the kick to open capability.
lol yep i've been told😅
We have the tow hitch but the kick to open works.
@@just.chiynaon a 24?
@@just.chiyna Because you don't have the 2024 X5.
@@Bb-br3xg yep but it’s not the 2024 version.
those things on either side of the boot are for folding the boot from the rear
I have the sky lounge in my 22 M50i and I can tell you the power is really good for a suv.
Very nice 😎
The driver's dashboard instrumental panel looks like an after thought.
I ordered one black edition with carbon inside.
But the one I ordered has different lights I think ?
But they said it won’t be built till June and arrive in Australia September
Best reviewer on the planet! New sub here.
I prefer the "pelvic activation" on the massaging seats 🤣
Lol! 🙏
If you have a trailer hitch the rear sensor is not there and you can’t use your foot to open the rear.
In the car we want ambient lighting , not disco lighting like benz
The X5 has the perfect amount of lights. Mercedes has to many lights. It’s like a fungus, every new Mercedes there’s more and more lights. It makes it look cheap.
Loved test driving this car but I went for the X6. A little sportier.
I have x7, sad that the x5 doesn’t have the button to auto fold the second row seats. On x 7 it does have the button. Trailer hitch kills the foot thing , :(
The strut is something BMW did for a long time now. Have it in 08 X6
what?! how have i. not noticed?!
Hi. Just drove my 2024 M60i on I80 interstate and I must say that the stability is a huge concern. I dropped the speed to 50 mph and exited the interstate as soon as I could. The car wobbles / drifts like you have no control over it. It’s extremely stressful and gives a feeling that I picked the wrong car. I’m open to constructive feedback and suggestions. Thank you.
I read on a different review that the exhaust sound was disappointing. I have a 2021 m550 which I think the sound is lovely on. What was your impression of the exhaust ?
i think it's very similar to the M550
those aren't LEDs in the sunroof - those are etchings in the glass that reflect the LEDs that are on the side projecting inwards. And the reason the kick to open up the back didn't work - is because it isn't installed with the tow hitch.
The Tanzanite blue metallic looks awesome. But my preference is the skyscraper grey metallic.
gorgeous spec
I atill say ill alway chose a Bmw 😊
'Benz is playing at another level'...saying this while reviewing a BMW, means you have to go men, empty your pockets, your no longer welcome here. #bmwfanboy
Great review. Im trying ti decide if i want to trade my '22 M5 Comp for a new M60. Love the M5 but thinking about something a little my practical. Any advice? Did you tester have the M puddle lighting when you open the doors?
The big thing you’ll notice from your comp is the ride. The M60 can be a lot more calm and relaxed ride. The M5c is a lot firmer even in comfort mode. I don’t recall seeing puddle lights but I was only with the car during the day sorry
@dwnshft thanks for the info. Great channel, look forward to following along now 👍👍
@@chrisdavis811 thanks for the support 🙏
This car does not have hand free trunk release because it has factory tow hitch package - which delete the hand free "kick open" trunk functionality
yes, you're right good catch
You lose the Foot activated trunk with the trailer hitch.
If I was able to get a new one once every few years I’d totally rock a BMW
sammmmeee
you have to do another review when the RPM are unlocked and you have full power.
yes indeed
please leave the vent nipples alone
Hah! Exactly what I thought of them 😅
I wrestled with a choice between the BMW and the Mercedes 580 GLE SUV. The 580 won out due to the fact I hate the 2 part rear hatch on the BMW. Talk about "inconvenient". Think of when you have 2 big cases of bottle water and the lower gate flips out towards you. Now you're having to reach over it to slide the heavy water to the back of the rear compartment. The really bad design had to have been the brain child of a man who never goes to the grocery store or Home Depot.
its idling so loud cause you prob have ac on.
I challenge the content creator to test drive my X5 M60i which I bought a couple of months ago and I’m sure he’ll have a different opinion. People, don’t ever buy this car or any the X5 M models.
bring it to Milwaukee and we'll go for a spin😎
@@dwnshft it’s not driving to your next door grocery store. Yesterday, I was on my way to Chicago from NY and had to drive back cautiously from Cleveland coz the car is nothing but a piece of shit.
@@dwnshft *it’s NOT worth
Why would you pay so much for gas? We will have better ev Suv soon!!!! Such a waste of money unless you have plenty!!
Benz are plastic, you have no idea what your talking about
