BMW i5 M60 Touring - Full review: This is not a joke!

[@baltazarkosa29]

very detailed review! good work!

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed

[@alex_v1983]

Looks great as touring, loved the review 😉

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Yes it really does. Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

[@ViktorVallin]

Much better looking than the sedan!

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Yes totally agree

[@hunk444]

Ticks lots of boxes.. Dream car!! 😎

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Yes, this is for you man you would love it!

[@idovecer]

It seems that the option to open the rear glass on the trunk has disappeared on this model, which was a great feature for traveling when the trunk is full. This way, you could easily reach things from the top and pack the trunk without worrying about stuff falling out.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Yes, that was a great solution. Had it on my f11 back in the days..

[@itslucien]

I thought the new 5er looked a bit ungainly if not ugly but the wagon proportions really smooth the design out

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Agree, the touring looks so much better

[@fillemonkambode910]

the best looking wagon so far in my opinion so far!

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Yes, 👍 So much more balanced as a wagon

[@jimj2683]

Too bad about the tight rear seats. If you had a family of four, would you go for the top of the line VW id7 or the entry level BMW i5?

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

ID7 for the range and the interior space. I5 if you are brand aware and enjoy the looks and interior Quality.

[@YTuberosity]

He's 6'4" so theres plenty of room for standard size people.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Correct. So most people will for sure fit. But small for the size of the car.

[@knoppenbrock7282]

I‘ll get my I5 M60 on 27/12/2024. 😊 Thank you for your review.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Cool! What color did you get? Touring?

[@knoppenbrock7282]

@knoppenbrock7282 wow, nice!

A Piece of Art 👌

[@itekani]

It seems really nice, but if I had the money I think I would be more interested in the id7 wagon or coming Audi equivalent. A long hood just makes the car look old and not very smart, I don't think I could live with that at that price point.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. That's two promising cars built on fully electric platforms.

[@yaCiyaCi]

Starting price is 1,3 million SEK and it does not even come with comfort access included. 😅 At this price it should be fully equipped with all comfort that you could think of.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Yes, it's a premium price tag. They have some release campaigns now..

[@tonypaca3015]

Are you going to review the bmw ix suv?

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

I'm considering it. 🙂

[@SeeliLeck3r]

No joking this time 🙌🏼 nice review and car. Love it, thanks for that mate 🙂

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Thanks! It looks so mean and drives exceptional 👍

[@SeeliLeck3r]

If I had the money, I would go for this premium car. As you said, I’m European so I love wagon 😅 and the sound made by Hans Zimmer, I know that some people don’t like it, I’m totally a fan. Find it super cool 🙌🏼 If Volvo would come with a V60 / V90 fully electric, I would be totally sold on it 🙂

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

@SeeliLeck3r right on point mate! Only the price is stopping me, some more range would be appreciated too. Otherwise bulls eye.

[@SeeliLeck3r]

@@ItsOnlyElectricto be honest, can’t wait for the brands to go deeper and deeper into EV line up, going out of the “spaceship” approach and lean towards more realistic formats. This BMW is a very good example 🙌🏼 you did a great job on this video btw 🙂

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

@SeeliLeck3r yes that is what the market needs for the transition. Thanks mate. Had a really big time pressure this time so it's a bit too long. 🤣

[@someoneneintown]

Really think BMW needs to change their pricing strategy. Cars are far too expensive compared to what they offer.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

It's a premium brand for sure but the completion hardens.

[@nicoev4851]

How would you compare it to NIO ET5T?

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

It's a much bigger car compared to the ET5T. ET5T is kind of a 3 series wagon playing in its own league.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

See the i5 touring a potential nio et7 touring contender

[@GM-lq7sw]

The BMW offers more than the ET5T, a bit bigger, a bit bigger boot capacity....but.... double the price and the design still I think the NIO looks way better

[@4Whopper]

Bring to USA!

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Not many wagons in the US? Mostly SUVs, sedans and trucks?

[@janhagglund3275]

Men.har någon kärra slagit FordF150 Lightning…?

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

I komfort är Lightning svårt att slå, helt klart. Men det här är en annan nivå av kvalitet och känsla..

[@someoneneintown]

Available space in this thing without frunk and tiny understorage in trunk is a joke.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Compared to ev with the sane exterior dimensions, yes

[@paulbenoit249]

About twice the price of a E-Scenic and close to half a ton more, ....no thank you.

[@dte12757]

sorry man how are you driving one hand only?? no sportiness in that😮

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

I'm not on the racetrack. 😂

[@lbg7240]

There is no Electric cars. You charge with elecriticy, but the car is going by battery

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

No the car is not going by battery it's powered by the electricity that's stored in a battery. the Battery can be compared to the tank in a gas car.

[@avt65]

The interior looks so cheap. The seats look like something out of a rental car and the amount of plastic is horrible. Definitely not to the same level as the last generation.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Last gen may have better materials, but this is really not bad and more modern .

[@ZM4-978]

You can buy a Dacia !

[@avt65]

@@ZM4-978 No thanks. But for anyone that does, at least it will last longer.

[@GM-lq7sw]

Its just me, or the BMWs are getting uglier and more expensive with every new release? Not saying this one is very ugly car but...at that price there are way better options + you barely fit the back...

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Expensive yes. I think G60 looks really good as a wagon (G61) though. Better than the previous gen..

[@larsw.larsen4173]

Agree - looks strange😮

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

Amy specific angel or just all of it? ,🙂

[@watatoi1515]

I‘m really curious about this review. Hopefully NIO will give the ET7 a try as station wagon. 🪫🔁🔋🏁

[@ecarpo3479]

Not much difference to the et5t and 3 times more expensive compared to the China price for the et5t. Crazy.

[@ItsOnlyElectric]

@ecarpo3479 it's bigger and comes with a premium price tag. But ET5T is best in its class still.
