[@magnesium_subsoil_94]

I can't believe I'm saying this with their recent design choices, but inside and out this looks *great*

[@Lerxstification]

Excellent as usual, Thomas. The two things that stick out and bother me are the elimination of the eight pre programmable buttons in the center, and the unnecessary and cheap looking arrows with the X5 logo on the dashboard in front of the passenger seat. Do those look cheap to you?

I think they’ve done a phenomenal job, I’m more a Mercedes fan but these new models look much better than the GLE. Great review as always 👍🏻

[@alb0zfinest]

The fact that the other models do in fact look sometimes even worse than much cheaper cars (and even less reliable than some) and people still buy BMW, is just indicative of how much power a brand holds. And how much people just want to flex.

[@everram701]

Mercedes is the worst design ever nowadays, not like previous design or mercedes. Even other brands already much better than mercedes. Same can be said for reliability that other brands also better than mercedes

[@thecompressor9595]

@@everram701Absolutely agree

[@Rascallucci]

My immediate reaction was thank God they didn't give it the new X7/7 series headlights treatment. So, overall I find the facelift quite modern and aggressive, just right for the X5 image. No doubt it gets a thumbs up from me!👍

BMW designs been very controversial lately, but I think that they nailed X5 and X6 lci models. Very happy about the change.

[@nafnaf0]

Well they didn't change it dramatically from the old design, so it still generally looks good. I think the older one looked nicer (more up market) though for some reason

I'm a BMW fan boy so no bias when i say it looks Awesome, Perfect, Stunning and thank you Thomas for the review😁

[@alirmortazzavi]

Thomas, great review as usual. Many nice improvements but as personal choice, overall I prefer my 2021 X5 , the deal breakers are missing air conditioning physical buttons and more importantly the gear shifter lever (sorry I really dislike the new nub design). Once again thank you for the detailed review

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks 🙏

[@Digga_10]

Just bought the X5 m60i and 1000% agree HATE the dials missing and the hidden switch for gears, hope nobody ever needs to reverse fast.

[@etjulien]

It would be nice to see a Sensafin & Alcantra seat for the X5 M. Anything is possible. Thanks for the "Full Length" intro. I always liked that when you did in the past.

[@autogefuehl]

highly appreciated! Defo Alcantara + Sensafin would be way to go for X5 M

[@thenorthwatch777]

It looks brilliant. Very strong sharp features for the facelift. Crisp and clear graphics. A good choice not to enlarge the grill. I love it ❤

[@godofdun]

Beautiful! Also love that range on the PHEV.

[@bearlabrador2018]

Another excellent review Thomas. I’m in the UK and have just ordered the M Sport 50e, delivery late July which is surprisingly quick, sensafin seats looks great as does the pano roof - haven’t been so excited about a new motor for a long time! Cheers

[@Dana-kk8el]

I am glad they kept the I-drive controller. This shape is very susceptible to stone chips. I prefer these headlights to that of the X7. I hope the seatbelt height is adjustable this time.

Now that what we call a nice facelift. That nardo grey is perfect!Thank you Thomas for this.😊

[@autogefuehl]

you re welcome !

[@autogefuehl]

It is strange that Nardo doesnt appear in the Configurator, maybe special order. The data sheet defo said Nardo Grey 6 k option Individual. Brooklyn Grey has a more blue'ish note to it, but the colors are similar. I am re-checking with BMW though.

[@autogefuehl]

Also compare how the X7 in Brooklyn Grey looks like, afaik you can see there that Brooklyn has a more blue ish note: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6G1f56NbtOlqNk

[@autogefuehl]

Is indeed Nardo by special order. Maybe I do prefer Brooklyn though as seen in the X7 video

[@miata1370]

@@autogefuehl I think these paint versions of what I'd refer to as "gloss primer grey" are getting overdone by auto manufacturers....what was once a unique and attractive color, now a color seemingly everyone offers. Reminds me that now "ancient" gold trim option...once that trickled down to the lowliest Toyota model...from its Mercedes origins many years ago.

[@sanjayhne1]

Thank you, Thomas for a high quality snap shot of the facelift. I drive an X5 30d (2020) and love it. The X5, IMHO is the most practical SUV I've driven- size, boot space, driving dynamics, tech, audio, reliable engines - a fabulous package. I like this facelift and I'm glad that BMW have retained some tactile elements- particularly on the steering wheel. I'm looking at replacing my current X5 with the newer one- tossing up between the M40i and the M60i. I'm quite keen to know a bit more about the M40i and I'm sure you will be comparing the models at some stage- perhaps in Q2, 2023 I suppose, all qoing well. Deep within me, I know I have a grin on my face when I hear the V8. 😂. Thanks again Thomas. Hope you are well !

Excellent review! I have a loaded 2020 X5 M Sport that I love and while I might be envious of some of the new changes, they are not sufficient to make me regret owning mine. I am not sure how to feel about my (now obsolete) laser lights. Maybe I should just get someone to code them so I can have all the features they were designed to have(?) Thumbs up for a great job!

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks 🙏

[@TheWaterworthfamily]

Nice quick review. Thanks for the video. Keep up the great work. Pity some of the simpler buttons like the steering wheel heating disappeared into the infotainment system.

[@autogefuehl]

👍

[@Pritesha]

Thomas, if i was working with you when buying my x5 I’d have ended up buying every extra available 😂. Great detail and information! Annoying that some functions are no longer buttons.

[@autogefuehl]

hehe =)

[@miata1370]

Yes...I agree...curved display and iDrive 8 were features that caused us to buy pre-facelift (coming 2025) x3 M40i.

[@opiante]

I love the way that BMW publishes their figures for the XDrive40i.. they keep getting more power on paper and keep claiming slower 0-60s. In reality the 2019-2023 versions were putting 330+hp to the wheels with most people getting real world 0-60 runs in the 4.9 range. If the new one really has 15% more power at the crank, this thing will be lightning fast.

[@psanta33]

Love the new pulsating turn signals. I like the iDrive 8 screen size and implementation; although, the page with the long list of apps is overwhelming and I would think unsafe to use while driving. I would still prefer climate controls outside of the screen. The new styling is quite nice.

[@chrisnix5775]

Excellent review Thomas.

[@krane15]

The polished chrome looks good, but I still prefer the black pack to the shiny stuff. As for the seats, well they certainly do light up the cabin. But they'd scuff far too easily and would need constant cleaning. Definitely not a color for a family with small kids. The take on infotainment, well there's no doubt there. It just looks tacked on cheap. Love the panam roof. As for the exhaust, they are real even if the surround is an add-on. Can't wait for the driving test.

[@gzmd86]

Thomas is the guy! Like all the new and facelifted Bmws, looks good outside (disconsidering the M3 and the new 2 series), but much worse inside; those screens are so much harder to use and also make the dash look cheap and uninspired (remember people: stick two screens is much cheaper than design and develop buttons and dashpads). I definetely won't trade my pre-facelift version for this one, I'll have to look elsewhere, to other brands, BMW designers pushed me away :(

Three points, I love this colour but am frustrated that the hybrid is not available in this colour in the U.K. Also disappointed that four wheel steering is not available in the U.K. except on the 50i model. Finally, it seems a pity that you have to order the sport model to avoid the grey plastic around the wheel arches and on the bumper.

[@davidslachta]

Whoa! The design is mad! An absolute head-turner. I could never own a car with such a design, because to me it's just silly, but it's definitely bold and unique and you can never mistake this for a different brand. It's funny how Mercedes and BMW go in totally different directions design-wise. Love the heated cup holders though 😮 One thing that remains constant in the ever changing car designs is Thomas' perfect review in a perfect outfit and presentation with all the important information about a car. Thank you! Also for trying to teach us some new german words! 😆
