From engineering/driving perspective, excellent vehicle I’m sure. But you have to get past the exterior design which looks too heavy/clunky from the front and the bolt-on infotainment screen looks like an afterthought.

everyone complains about the infotainment screen but let me tell you as an owner, i literally never think about it. it's just nice 2 big screens, high up in my line of sight. Never once have i thought "dang this afterthought ipad dash!", that's just an online commenter thing from people who have never once sat in a BMW with iDrive 8.

I really like the front design. I don't think it's as good looking as the 4 series' vertical grilles, but I definitely prefer this look over BMW's past 7 series'. I've been a fan of pretty much all of their newer 'controversiaI' designs.

@@myemailiscool Ya, we’ve owned multiple BMW’s…great cars. But the front end designed looks like the car from the original Vacation movie. And I get it, when you’re looking at the screens from the driver’s seat, it looks fine. But the overall interior design with bolt-on screen(s) looks like an afterthought for a six-figure car. Even the guys at the BMW plant near me say the same.

​@@bikeomatic8005 What does this car really still do? High gloss plastic everywhere. Shitty massage seats. Tacky crystals in your interior. Super high price (€121.000 for the base version without options in my country). I ordered an Xpeng G9 for €77K. Massage seats that are actually good, in both the front and the back. Passenger screen like in a top spec Mercedes. Nicer looking interior. Better UI for the infotainment. Warranty that lasts more than three times as long. And still 550 horsepower and air suspension. Only one bit with high gloss plastic :-(. If you're buying the BMW you're really desperate for a badge.

WATCH OUT FOR SPAM/FAKE ACCOUNTS. Across KZbin/Whatsapp/Telegram etc., you'll find fake accounts taking the identity of original channels or people claiming to work on the behalf of original channels, they sometimes even use the same profile pic, similar names and include a telephone number in the name or their comments, trying to get you to message them on Whatsapp or Telegram. DO NOT MESSAGE THEM, they are trying to get your personal details, bank accounts etc. and in the end, they will ask for money or they will misuse your bank account. They promise you giveaways, prices, payment etc. Do not fall for these cheap tricks and PLEASE HELP everyone and MARK THEIR MESSAGES and their whole accounts/channels as Spam and/or report their telephone numbers/Whatsapp to the police.

Thanks for the test, however i would have loved seeing you drive 180 kph on cruise control for a couple minutes and then tell us the exact consumption. As someone who drives 180 kph regularly with his Diesel on the Autobahn im very interested in that to see when i can switch to EVs.
@boogeyman423
@boogeyman423 Жыл бұрын
He said 260km at 180kmh, probably in ideal cases, not including winter, hills or wind. So about 1 hour of driving before charging. Also to consider how often one accelerates. Not the best car for this driving style, it's probably best to drive at 100kmh to get the most out of it's range. The tyres for this car will probably need to be changed every 5000km with this kind of driving style because of weight, instant torque hard acceleration and of course the high speed.

I prefer the Mercedes solution for the Home button, which brings you back to the overall main menu. I also like the actual control knob in my Mercedes for moving between functions so that I don't have to lean over to touch the screen. Not lazy, but using the knob helps keep my attention more on the road and not the screen. That control pad in the BMW is not tactical enough for me. Just my zwei pfenning!

@autogefuehl , we respect your efforts as a reviewer! And know that you have been using the synthesized engine sound. Simply, for the benefit of your viewers the sensation of speed cannot be properly rendered without the synthesized sound. Yes, sometimes the speedo is visible but your viewers cannot understand the sensation of driving and acceleration. You are in the car you are reviewing and you are feeling this sensation but without synthesized sound your viewers cannot undertand if and how aggresively you are acceleting or decelerating.

Thank you very much for your interest in this topic. I also bought cars with animal skin leather seats before I did my research and got to know the industry. The most important thing is: With today's modern materials, you have nothing to lose, just to gain. You achieve the same kind of luxury and comfort or even better while having the same or better durability with less impact on humans, animals and the environment. You can use fabric/cloth, microfibre or leatherette. The classic approach is using oil/plastic as source material. Overall, a vehicle contains about 300 kg plastic. A car seat needs about 5 kg plastic. So the overall plastic share for the seats is very low and it is at this moment the most efficient way to produce a car seat. A couple of litres of fuel equals a car seat basically. So if you want to save oil/plastic, rather look at consumption for energy, fuel and heating and to other car parts than the seat. Note that animal skin leather also always contains a plastic coating for durability. However, long-term we should of course find raw oil alternatives. So going further, seats can be made from recyclables (e.g. from PET-bottles or old fishing nets) or even increased share of plant-based materials (like pine oil, canola oil or start-up materials like Pinatex from pineapple leaves or Desertex from cactus fibre or the mixed-plant-based Mirum, so be seen at kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWLEf42bpMano6c). On a calculation base, by ditching animal skin leather from car interiors, the amount of emissions (CO2e) is reduced by 85 (!) % (www.press.bmwgroup.com/africa-dom-easteurope/article/detail/T0403389EN/on-the-market-from-2023:-bmw-and-mini-models-with-vegan-interiors?language=en) - and that is a very conservative calculation. So it is at this moment the most important thing you can do to make car interiors more sustainable. A good example for high-end luxury with ventilated animal free seats is the BMW X7 with Sensafin: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6G1f56NbtOlqNk And the Kia EV9 with plant-based oil share: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKe7loOHnsSAd80 New leatherette materials can be superior in every aspect, even for cleaning: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2qXiouAbJeIiqM More and more natural materials are rising: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIO2pIt7o9x7etE Also check out what the animal skin leather industry tried to with our channel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pIHCdKmCocZ5oqs For seeing how the animals are being treated and transported in the global leather industry, watch this footage: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpzNdHSjppaSbqc Note that the footage is genuine and was recorded by a highly decorated investigative journalist in Germany I know myself personally. In a high animal skin grade, the animals are specifically raised for this matter. However even if meat is the "first" misuse case, the hide remains a profitable body part. That means: If manufacturers put animal leather in a car and you demand it as a customer, you give your money to an industry that earns money by oppressing humans, animals and harms the environment, you make them more profitable. Alternatively, you could support industries with your wallet which try to improve the sustainability of materials. Also, if you turn the argument around to "meat is the waste of the leather industry" you realize that it doesn't make sense (and is ethically doubtful) to discuss the primary use of individual body parts of mammals. Mind experiment: You are getting slain down on the street; would it matter to you if it was for your smartphone or for your purse? We cannot change what we have bought in the past, but with more information and compassion we can change how we decide in the future.
