*19.4kWh battery - apologies!
The reality if your daily commute is 40 miles per day as mine then literally you put some petrol in once a month and in UK charging on overnight tariff it’s very cost effective..especially as a company car.
Great review thanks Mark. Just to point out that the 520i and 530e pricing are much closer that you stated. The 530e is only €2k more, not €10k.
Great review. 520d touring sounds interesting depending on pricing. Much prefer the chrome grill rather than black plastic.
I have a 4-year old G20 330e plug-in hybrid. I love it! I hardly ever use petrol. The realistic range on a daily basis is around 35km, which is more than enough for my daily commute. If the 530e manages 80-100 km, this would be amazing! Driving on battery alone is fabulous - so quiet and smooth. And for long trips, the petrol engine is great. Plenty of power.
A 530E went past me on the motorway yesterday - whoever designed the back end must have been on the piss.
Btw good to hear you back on the wireless!
Have a G31 Touring 530e lovely machine. Tons of power. Got rid of an Etron…was depreciating by eye watering amounts
"Finally the 5 series we all want!" - it's so refreshing when someone decides for you without asking.
I much prefer the interior of my 2021 530e msport. That dash in the g60 is featureless, bland and too tesla like with the big screen stuck on. Thanks for a great review.
It’s all downhill from here.
Same
Na it feels outdated when you drive one. I love my 2021 but the new one is much nicer inside and to drive
@@Milkybar882 Well some people have no taste, you must be one of them. The old model was much much much nicer designed inside AND out, and when quality is down, removed features like opening back glass on the touring, introduction of cheap hard plastic inside and ugly screens well 99% of everyone is very disappointed.
@@truxton1000 or you just can’t afford it
I like this car very much ......
Thank you my dear Gentleman
& BMW
🌹❤️💋👍🙏
I own a G30 530e. Got problem Auxiliary Battery after 1 yr. Car grounded for more than 1 month at Authorized Service Center
Any idea why BMW are only bringing the 520d to Ireland in the touring option Nobby? Some other countries with right hand drive cars are getting the 520d saloon option. For example, saw a new model 520d saloon review a day ago from a South African car reviewer.
Watched so many of your reviews keep up the good work! I would be really interested in the 5 series diesel hybrid
Thank you!
Thanks for the good review Nobby! This reinforces my decision to get the new 530e over an i5 which I’ll pick up this Friday where I live in the Netherlands…
It’s the best one that I’ve tried anyway!
Did you consider the Merc E-Class 300e?
This config combo is just 👌🤩
Thanks Nobby, great review as always. Any visibility on the G61 into Ireland yet?
I think the i5 version will be May and the PHEV coming "later in the year" is all I know for now.
Love my 530 G30 but this facelift is giving me corolla vibes at the back.
16 year ago I have a e60 m5 in that colour
Care to mention the list price of the press car ? Any insight on expected 520d Touring prices ?
530e M-Sport in Ireland is 80k currently. Hard to guess will they pitch the 520d below the 520i. In years gone by, they would have. Now, who knows!
@@NobbyOnCars 👍 VRT now being blamed for inflated pricing on diesels
Can you get X Drive 4 wheel drive in Uk?
520d please. Mine is getting a bit old, 60mpg..
With old fashioned big tyres!
Nobby, reckon the stick of M60s in the dealerships that they can’t move will get discounted? Great review as always, pity about the pricing, will have to keep my i4 M50 for now
You never know. EQE has had a massive price drop, just depends how much BMW are willing to take a hit on.
The reason they are dropping the price is because the all electric bmw have been a sales disaster. The 5 series in general has been a disaster . People don’t like me marketing deciding what they can or cannot buy.
Hot tip, dropping the split tail gate on the Touting is a big mistake!!
Most people are gonna have this as a company car so the price difference makes no diff. The Benefit in Kind tax difference (between the 520i and 530e) is substantial
I don't know where BMW Ireland is getting their numbers but unless just a few were sold, near every last model 5 I see was a 520D as business can reclaim vat on diesel and near all 5 buyers (even if near all are leasing) are business who do reclaim. The number of ancient 520D UK imports here is endemic. Saw a new 5 from the back yesterday. Bit tank like and does not scream BMW5. Maybe better at night. Still would prefer an M5 touring if big lotto win arrived. Seen a few 530e touring here (last model). Will there be an i5 touring or just more SUVs.
Weren't we meant to be getting hydrogen BMW models by now? It was then described as our future. 12Kw battery will hardly get you down the road.
Nice looking car. Hope they've learnt their lesson from the Active Hybrid system where the whole car had to be scrapped when the battery packed in.
€10,000 different to get a PHEV …. !!!! Why oh why is there such a massive difference. €10,000 is a lot of fuel. Glad it handles well and lovely colour. Look forward to the next one Nobby.
It seems to have come down now actually. About 3k extra for the M-Sport and 6 for the M-Sport Pro (dampers).
Thanks Nobby for the reply. Appreciate it. You are a busy boy lately.
If I were in the market for a 5 series, I would be looking for a diesel. 520d would do, but a 530d would be nicer.
Good review. Thanks Nobby. Are you hearing BMW will drop price on 530e??
Not sure. This came after the i5 price drops so it’s a hard one to call.
I’ve had a quote on 530e £62,500 on a company car lease. Seems crazy when I paid £38,000 4 years ago for a brand new 520d
In the Netherlands the 530e is only 3k euros more than the 520i. So that would be a no brainer.
Do you know if in 530e G60 in eDrive mode you got those Hans Zimmer sounds for EV?
Yes
need help.have diesel mondeo ..........name my next motor........similar if possible..help
Great review 👏 👌
Thanks! 👍
I’m told by owners of PHEV that they go through tyre wear a lot. Have you experienced this? I have a 520D 4 yr old and it’s a super car. Totally confused on what the change it for so I’m just going to keep it and drive on. Lovely colour on that 539e though 😊
Maybe they’re driving it harder because it has more power.
Depends on the tyre. Stick to BMW * rated and they last a long time
I have a 330e, and in my experience, coming from a 328i, my tyre usage is similar, although I expected an increase due to the car being heavier. One thing that I didn't expect (but makes sense if you think about it) is the brake usage. By now I would have changed at least the brake pads on my old car, but mine still have plenty of life in them.
I’ve owned a few G30 and G31 5 series and have a 530e Touring now which has the adaptive dampers. It’s a 23 model and is the first one that doesn’t have run flats. Also it’s on 19’s so very comfortable overall.
I enjoyed watching the Video Review 😊
Glad you enjoyed
Maybe they’ll bring the 520d in the saloon if it’s going to be in the touring? Hopefully!!
Not happening.
Touring is much nicer designed so why would you want the ugly saloon?
Is there a hybrid with a diesel motor by chance? Or planned?
no
Expensive and underwhelming. Give me a 530d x drive any day. Drove one for 4 years and it was terrific.
Looked at the x5 today and full of black plastic. Poor at any price
I've the 330e .....The 530e is the best.
Good video
The car in this video looks quite good! I seen a white one otr the other day, and it looked horrible 😢
It’s a lovely colour 👌🏻
Long live the car. 99% of people don’t need an SUV
Saloon I presume you mean 😉
Great car it is .....
👍🌹💋🙏
When is the tavascan out nobby
Don’t know if it’ll happen before the end of the year, very drawn out.
How do you explain the moisture / condensation in the headlights on these 5 bmw ?
I don’t make them
High quality product.
Now you have no choice but to do a 550e review.
I know you corrected battery capacity in comments but how can one post a complete video with all false information . Do your homework .
Because I checked two different sources whilst trying to film a car in 20 mins. Twat.
Edited to add obnoxious twat actually. “All false information”. 🙄
Bought the 530 in Jan great car haven’t charged it yet though
whaaaaaaat???! Why?
must install a charger - car is great so far but heavy on petrol
@@NobbyOnCars
The indicator flashes are incredibly odd.
As the DRL dims.
BMW have gone to the dogs.
Please do a review of the 550e
Had mine 3 months, took a bit of getting used to but love the car now. My 4th 5 series (3 x 530d previously).
Touring looks better
Why did they spoil a good looking car with black plastics in the front, ugly
Nobby why in the jaysus are they all just giving us estates?? They’re pointless & horrific looking.
I am partial to an estate now I must say - model specific !
What are you saying? The estate version of this model is much better looking than the saloon. Well it’s still uglier than the old model but…
You can buy a 530e at €73k
They’ve dropped it so. Was 80 recently. No brainer over the 520i so I think. Although the Pro is really essential for the dampers I think and that’s 76.
@@NobbyOnCarsI’m not so sure I’m going to drive them both. Want to keep the car 10 years so I’d be concerned about the 530e battery issues and maintenance in year 6+. Also couldn’t be bothered plugging it in all the time 😊
First and last time I’m watching this guy, pointless review, outdated opinion, no fact checking at all…
I guess you cannot please all of the people all of the time.
Please make a video yourself and let us watch that review.
This is so last decade ! This is the 5 series the boomer world wants ! Just pick the i5, the 530e will always carry a useless engine…
These hybrids are proving very lucrative for OEM service departments... Well backed up by these type of 'useful idiots' to whom they lend their cars for 30 minutes
Yet you watch & comment on this "useful idiot's" channel looking for attention! 😂
Not up to speed on this - Why is that happening- what are they doing ?
Looos like a saab
No we don’t “want it”, as it’s ugly.
Hell no, its ugly as hell, less sporty, super heavy and the electric model has all the downsides of an gasolin car
you dont know what you are talking about so maybe stop commenting and suck on the pipe of your gasoline car
