2020 BMW X5 xDrive45e G05 vs Volvo XC90 T8 - Malaysian comparison review

[@arzainzain1854]

Using XC90 T8 for almost a year, the best SUV i ever experienced! Quite numbers of dynamic and practical safety functions, make it my first choice family car especially for long distance travel. Good job Volvo 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@ppBlue855]

Dude, I love your review as it comes with the best & thoughtful details and comparison for the genuine buyer who are seriously looking to buy these SUV (especially these two giants). Thumbs up.

[@iamsam8446]

As an American, it's interesting how Malaysian English sounds vaguely similar to Jamaican English. I like this review, particularly his wording about his personal preferences. Very professional and engaging. Also, you can get the Bowers & Wilkins sound system as a upgrade in the BMW.

[@deborahm9878]

Not sure why he speaks like so. I’m sure he doesn’t talk like that in a normal conversation.

[@lost_once6200]

My dad owns a Volvo XC90 T8 r-design and we absolutely love it! One point that weren’t talked about is that you have massage in the front seats! I don’t know if it’s because we have R-design but it’s lovely. And we also have carbon fiber material where this car has wood. Love the vid btw!

[@FANATECH0609]

Is it 2020 model or old for the r - design.

[@jasonkok9942]

massage seats wasnt anything new… u can even found it on E class CBU

[@hasifaiman]

Damn I miss *Driven* episodes powered by Petronas! This video is the perfect substitute. Paultan, bring it back please...

[@basilfabian05]

` I agree!

[@editionlvl]

while there are many bmw fans out there, i just feel in this segment, the xc90 just edges out all competition...though its a few years old, still looks immaculate for years to come

[@AngryPostmanStockholm]

Amen

[@EvilBaggOBolts]

Nothing like a inline 6 cylinder, the sound is perfection

[@3223amazing]

Hi, a suggestion to put time markers on your videos now that KZbin has them. ie. interior, exterior, the drive

[@dzakisuda]

Xc90 is comfortable and elegant. X5 is sporty and faster.

[@CaryInVictoria]

I have read that one reason Volvo has kept manually-adjustable steering columns in all their models is that it is safer that a powered one in certain kinds of accidents. Good review!

[@omerio100]

One of the best reviews, nutral and non bias. Well done!

[@LoiKimWei3]

I will go for the Volvo XC90 if I'm on the market to buy a big SUV, as it is more practical car and more comfortable to drive. If i want a sporty car, SUV definitely out of my radar.

[@justingoh4369]

Volvo XC90 definitely. Steady & comfort.

[@aysesimsek7487]

I have driven both... the BMW is more expensive but the drive feeling is much better. Direct and sporty but better comfort at the same time. Both had nearly every extra on it.

[@chrissstophhher]

Incorrect

[@hotpeppermovie]

Copium loser

[@patricelevels3001]

Hands down- XC90 for safety. Volvo’s are so classy and less of them on the road. I like being different!

[@quietdraft]

on 2020, XC90 still the best with semi autonomous safety, reduce stress

[@budantan]

Hafriz the man! Very detailed review even though a bit information overload

[@sweetprincessHayley]

Thanks for your genuine review and list out the buyer's concern. . Good car review Malaysia!

[@attachoo]

great and super detailed review. i love this video. thanks !

[@lihwoei]

Hi, just a input. PaulTan may put a voting in this kind of comparison video. And this is a very detail and great video!

[@x5or]

I'm offroading with the X5 G05 on this channel (X5OR) Very nice SUV

[@leeyamel7283]

Yes, I will go for XC90... Good & safe car for family... interior premium quality materials used

[@potensimatawangdanpelabura1499]

Nice volvo ❤

[@davidbrown1856]

Comfort and everything included I'm all the way Volvo. Service is amazing. I've had a Volvo cars and SUVs for years and also a BMW. The BMW was not comfortable to drive the seats were hard. It had some nice stuff as far as infotainment design but Volvo stepped up the game and I love the integration with Google and such. Seamless. Volvo in black and everything is clean style and comfort all the way around

[@haikaldaniel9098]

a very detailed comparisonnnn, great!!

[@joelmathunyane9162]

Fair and unbiased comparison

[@kitlai768]

How about pitching the XC90 against the X7?

[@hasifaiman]

Gosh. 45 minutes !!! Better make a full featured documentary hahaha

[@hafrizshah4937]

Hahaha sorry, so many things to mention!

[@keai650]

If i have to pick these 2.Ofc X5 bc newer platforms and designs.If i want to choose volvo.i will pick xc60 is perfect enough and simple when maneuvers.

[@TheDatodrsujit]

Thanks bro. Excellent video. Keep it coming

[@garysandhu5082]

Can the bmw top up the electric battery if it’s not fully charged by just driving it on petroleum?

[@Thespieler11]

yes

[@josephs6327]

XC90: “more usable cubby space inside…”, unfortunately I still can’t find a suitable space to place my phone ☹️. Beside that, still loving it.

[@umarhaziq5799]

Hafriz..would happy if you review the new x6 after this😁

[@orekampung]

2020 volvo xc90 T6 ada tak di Malaysia bro?

[@grey71644]

right finished watching the whole video...in summary for long distance with family get the xc90, x5 is more for twisty road and night drive

[@malayneum22]

Ohh i never knew that BMW has it assembly plant in Pekan, Pahang

[@hafrizshah4937]

Sorry about that. I meant Kulim, obviously.

[@malayneum22]

@@hafrizshah4937 no problem hafriz, i only knew that one of the ZF plant also located in Pekan..Naza is on their way to open a new plant in Pekan, maybe for Hyundai/Kia since PSA has take over the plant in gurun. BTW you look struggle talking with the face mask. Lemassss. Haha

[@ch13t]

Me neither.

[@theaveragemalaysian]

Both also cannot afford. Do they make an X5 xDrive06e M Sport with like a 660cc engine, without doors, windscreen, brakes, tyres, suspension, dashboard and aircon? I might be able to get that

[@abbashussain6390]

Volvo XC90 ♥

[@ThePro-ce1rs]

Thank you Hafriz

[@fixxzitt]

The suspension sags after 3-4 yrs for the B. Is it due to the heavy batts?

[@engineer4life]

You can do cast function with the iPhone with a not too expensive Apps

[@aysesimsek7487]

the BMW has semi autonomous driving as well. couldn't compare it yet, though.

[@jazzycars5800]

Bruh in the beginning you were just putting bmw down, bruh they have one of the best infotainment screens, probably one of the best.

[@weihangtang6540]

All the way BMW, gorgeous machine.

[@casey2862]

Xc90 t8 or rx300 f sport which one is a good buy, considering buy one but not sure which car depreciation better?

[@alhambra792]

If you want to compare the power train. XC90 T8 407HP / 640Nm RX300 F sport 250HP / 350Nm I have never driven the RX300. But the XC90 drives like a sedan. Agile and feels like a rocket when u floor the pedal in Power mode drive. Super comfy to drive and ride. And its super convenient for the family.

[@KaisAdventure4896]

Volvo for life! How I wish I am already rich!

[@davidwang1502]

regular rich... i’m in the regular poor 🤣😂

[@sharvinchamp1374]

Nice , please do comparison between mazda 3, civic and altis

[@mhfzlmr2212]

Just went for a test drive both last saturday, i would say xc90 more comfort & space. X5 more powerful very torqy

[@JviperS2]

Somehow I feel like the Volvo is made to last, maybe be a classic one day while the BMW is for the boy racer to trash and replace whenever a newer version is released... Elegance vs Garangness

[@rayyoung9934]

should add the comparison with Mercedes GLE

[@juliusbeek1917]

You can get bowers & Wilkins also in the bmw

[@blacksukhoi]

The BMW is not assembled in Pekan, I think Hafriz has mistakenly reported it.

[@WanMomento]

It's assembled at Kulim as per pop out info

[@AFMEGAT]

What would Hafriz do (get) for a 7 seater? SUV or MPV

[@hafrizshah4937]

This XC90 is fantastic - I'd get it over an Alphard/Vellfire. But on a lower budget, an 8-seater Kia Grand Carnival would be great.

[@AFMEGAT]

@@hafrizshah4937 All said and done, got myself a Vellfire. Oklah kids are happy. But now rethinking maybe I should've gone with sportier big sized SUVs?

[@ACSNAZ]

The BMW X5 is much better than the Volvo, All the negatives in the interior, you can option, like better leather 2 choices, trim as well 5 different option, the real world mpg is massively better, i get 34 miles/54km on a full charge, once battery is depleted the engine charges battery, for every 1 mile you get 1 mile of ev, you are looking at 50mpg, 4.7l/100km...

[@l.y.l4818]

If you're still complaining bout depreciation value, you can't afford either one!

[@peterambrose2148]

I agree with you on the pilot assist I tested the one in the E350 and its hard to look back How does volvo's system compare to the E350?, Also, the fact that a 450k bmw does not have is a joke ( i will be bombarded with fanboys saying that they will rather experience drivInG dzynaMicS and haNdlinG in a 4 hour traffic) Having those systems will not compromise ur ferrari handling titanic You can turn it off when ur doing mountain runs Nice review btw Did not notice 40 minutes passed haha

[@Kr0nicridah]

Just because people disagree with you doesn’t mean they’re fanboys

[@peterambrose2148]

[@daveninjaneuro7089]

The steering wheel is on the wrong side :P

[@Yddp3307]

Tbh bmw suvs do not look attractive at all, it's just look kinda soulless right beside the elegant xc90, when the xc90 passes by it's just give the head turning effect more. Heck even the mazda cx5 looks more attractive to me compared to the x5, bmw suvs just look soulless

[@alhambra792]

U r right. Its an eye turner. Everytime there is an XC90 passed by, i never missed noticing it and admiring its beauty. Especially in white or black both with black tinted glass. I never had such impression when I bumped into the X5. The X7, probably.

[@aerotus888]

Great reviews! Useful insights. Just lose the mask next time.

Drove both bought bmw, just a better car all round. Also you seem to showing a lot of options as standard fair on both cars such as B&W sound in Volvo’s as well rear entertainment in bmw. Volvo may be better for a larger family.

[@hasifaiman]

I don't know why these so-called "SUVs" height is lower than 1.8 metres... In America, their large size SUVs is often 1.9 metres or even 2m... So what's so SUV for these two models? Hmmm.

[@noname-br1kn]

Xc90 gear knob looks like a man tool

[@afiqarman990]

All my regular rich friends parents own big house, spend lavishly, and they drive cool cars. Man I’m so jealous. Yet still, i wonder how the extra rich lives

[@alhambra792]

Lives in a big mansion, line up of cool cars in their underground garage. The garage alone probably looks like a car showroom. When u open the key box, a bunch of cool car keys hanging in it. You can find all the Germans, Italians and perhaps one special key from Sweden. Obviously not a Volvo. The other Swede if u know what i'm talking about. 😃

End of the day it depends on who does the driving & who's being driven. Driving - volvo xc90. Driven - toyota alphard. Period.

Cannot compare with bmw, bmw is a driver choice. Xc90 head on with vellfire/alphard

[@Priestitude]

Lol xc90 got all the praise for interior, but now it looks “cheap”. I think practical > everything. Too fancy too many feature just makes your drive confused.

[@WilliamWongDK]

The FL XC90T8 is slower because of the added weight of battery and rims.
