2024 BMW X5 M & BMW X6 M: More power through electrification . . .

[@Mano_421]

The front end on that X6M is a 10/10 for me

Absolutely hideous. BMW is taking their design language from Hyundai with their headlights. People are simple minded.

​@@MotoManTVI drive one as a daily driver. The reason why they don't need buttons is the car remembers what temperature and vent settings you like,and sets it automatically. As for the transmission - it's a slight difference between modes, comfort makes it less jumpy off the line.

[@conservativegirl3371]

Personally for me, I don’t need the performance engine...the regular X5 has plenty of power for me...but I love love the m styling. I just ordered a mineral white 2024 x5 with M sport package and 22 inch black wheels. I like both x5 and x6, but I chose the X5 to own because I like the looks of it slightly more and prefer to have more room in back seat and rear storage.

No one wants shiny plastic. It's simply down to cost of materials and cost of manufacturing increasing. Car makers have to cut costs somewhere and that usually lands on sacrificing quality.

I prefer the X5 over either the X4 or X6. My wife has a Q5 Sportback which is the X4 equivalent in the Audi lineup. I just don’t like BMW’s interpretation in the Coupe SUV world. I think they nailed the X5 though. Great collaboration with Andre and everyone at TFL.

[@Mike-kr5dn]

Funny that it was BMW to come up with this Coupe SUV meta.

[@KeithBalante]

I love the new front end on both cars. I'm leaning towards the X5 M though looks-wise and for practicality

[@presavw]

Great review considering you were soon to be kicked out. I have a 2023 X5M Competition and think that it is the BMW sweet spot of digital and buttons. I enjoy having 8 buttons that I can program to do what I want as well as a "normal" HVAC interface. I'm not a fan of moving everything to a digital interface but all of the Germans appear to be going that way for the moment. VW seems to be rethinking and reversing course based on what I've been reading.

[@MotoManTV]

Thank you for recognizing the work Andre of @tflruck and I put into this at the very tail end of the event!

[@LilRick96]

I still hate how BMW did the heated/cooled seats buttons on the pre face lift.

[@Keyosu]

Im glad I got my car with iDrive 7. What I hated the most about the latest Audi infotainment system had to be the dual screens. Everything being locked behind a menu takes too much attention from driving. In iDrive 7 I make full use of the memory buttons, M1/2, and rarely mess with the screen aside from CarPlay or adjusting the chassis. iDrive 7 has the perfect layout once you take time to set your profile up

Definitely prefer the red interior. The brown is more for older people.

As a 2021 X6M Comp owner they changed NOTHING about this 2024 model except idrive 8, the front fascia, ruining the DRLs and that's it. The HP/Torque numbers are unchanged despite the mild hybrid hype and the wheels ARE NOT a new design. They're the same ones on my 2021 model.

I just bought a 2023 M850ixdrive and also own a 2020 Toyota Supra which as you know is basically a Bmw.

Its nice to be able to reach down without looking away from the road and changing as much as you can in the older models. I enjoy watching both of you're channels !

That's more like it, M. Glad to have the deposed leader back on the show. I'd take the X6. I'm warming up to the refresh, but I don't like the black trim connecting the kidneys to the lower grille. I wouldn't give up anything to be honest. Just the adaptive cruise control, I really really don't like the giant radars they stick into the cars. Excellent work like always, M.

But a reasonably loaded Cayenne turbo GT MSRP is close to $260K. I was never heated to either X6 or X6M and still don't understand why X6 was built in the first place.

These are Competitions, and the same 617hp as the old pre-LCI competitions. Not 625hp. No additional hp was added with the mild-hybrid system. 625hp is a different European figure based off kw conversion calculation, not US spec.

[@jeffs6090]

I wish the X6 came with the phev! Do you know why they don't do that? The shape is more conducive for the EV aspect. Also, why can't you get the B&W stereo in the phev? Is it a battery/subwoofer placement thing?

X6 used to be better looking until they messed up the rear, too many creases etc. people that choose X6 do not consider utility. they do not consider practicality, or anything about that being some replacement for some midsize sedans etc. X6 is just different from all the boxy family SUVs, it is a going out car, a fun single seater spaceship, and whatever you can think of in this manner. It has a purpose of being different. And X5 = is just boring like everyone else.

Matthew 22 KJV 1-14 1 And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. 4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. 5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: 6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. 7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. 9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. 10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14 For many are called, but few are chosen.
