BMW iX - I want to Hate it.. But it’s SO GOOD! - xDrive50 M Sport Review

[@RemoveBeforeRace]

The intro betrays my VFX origins! As a kid, I used to make fighting games on the MUGEN PC game engine, fan games. Mostly Dragonball Z, but also some Street Fighter and KOF. 👊🔥 So cool to revisit it today!

[@_Chev_Chelios]

You should have destroyed it about 10,000 more times. It still wouldn’t be enough though. It is vomitously ugly.

[@tlewis4522]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@joefx69]

Wow. How long have you been waiting to bust out those moves for the channel?! So good

[@akj1919]

Careful to not overdo the physical activity during Ramadan, Akuma 😂

[@AnthonyMunyi]

So so EPIC. You are by far the most unique car KZbinr on the interwebs.

[@pdd3]

It really isn't bad looking. Sometimes I feel like what people just repeat what the last guy said about the looks of something.

[@caleidoo]

Exactly. People are scared of sounding different these day. And that includes people making content. I think it looks great, there is not a bad angle on it. Sure, the grill is there, but it's not like in- your-face-there, like previous big grilled BMW's. And it sits nearly flush with the rest of the front. The car also benefits from the correct color combinations. If I had the cash, I'd buy the 50. I need comfort and space, not a supercar. The 50 is already overkill in performance, but offers the best range. Although I remember seeing another clip where a someone had actually more range on the M60 version. Might have been the wheel sizes, but the M60 would have been bigger, no?

[@raxal9833]

*INCORRECT BUZZER SOUND*

[@AstonVantage8]

It doesn’t look too bad if I look at it with my eyes closed. No, I’m not repeating what the last guy said. My view is 100% original. After 3 yrs, it is safe to say the majority of the car buying public strongly dislikes the design. Of course there are some who digs it but those are few and far between

[@loosevoltage1968]

That start was awesome. Epic execution of SF graphics while perfectly conveying our thoughts on BMW designs. 10/10!

[@RemoveBeforeRace]

Thank you!!!

[@logical_lb3059]

what graphics?

[@rahmatahmed1282]

Your editing is on another level brother, loved that intro

[@Ianmundo]

that intro was 🔥 👊

[@theseb1979]

I went on a road trip to Scotland in December and was surprised to see one of these on the road near Birmingham. It may have been a journalist. It looks a lot better on the road, especially from the front and rear 3/4 views. My bug bear is manufacturers who think it’s ok to make charging speed a spec thing. Speed, comfort, audio, battery size - sure, I understand that. But if you try to differentiate different spec levels with charging speeds, then I am out.

[@h43lio]

Batteries are often arranged in banks which are charged in parallel. More battery means more banks meaning more charged in parallel allowing them to accept higher power when charging.

[@santana9537]

Pretty cool. Saw one of these in person in black. Looked much better than the model x next to it Interior is lovely too

[@josemicalderoncarpio]

Perhaps the best IX review I’ve read… but I do like the exterior (even the front)…

[@WildShotZ14]

Now i know why the intro took 7 days, it looks so sick🔥

[@RemoveBeforeRace]

Much time 🥲

[@kyrae6267]

Loved your review. I already have nearly exact one on delivery now. Oyster interior. So excited. 😊

[@Felix9lives]

Love the intro!🤣😂😁

[@RemoveBeforeRace]

Not as much as I enjoyed it 😆

[@RiggsMorais]

The iDrive system with that crystal wheel/buttons, it's the best and the safest in today's market. Hope that BMW doesn't get rid of it💪🏼

[@Prof.Dr.Diagnose]

In the new 2 series active tourer, they already got rid of the iDrive controller. I hope that’s just an experiment, and if yes, i hope it fails🤞

[@CAR_NL]

Such a bullshit. There are many more brands using the control wheel.

[@timfielding5735]

Not sure if anyone else has pointed this out ( not looked through all comments ) however the best ‘ gadget ‘ in the iX is the sat nav which projects the actual road ahead at junctions etc via a front facing camera with fantastic graphics as your directional aids It’s incredible Can’t believe all manufacturers aren’t doing it

[@robjj1000]

the other cool thing is in the heads up - if you are following a car , it shows you a car - if you're following a lorry , you see one in the graphics in the HUD .... if you're following someone on a pushbike, the HUD even shows you a little graphic of someone on a bike too !

[@swisstrader]

The looks dont bother me in the least and actually think it looks a bit mafioso to my taste. As a BMW buyer for some 20 years, I test drove this beast the other day and was absolutely blown away by the power and acceleration. So much fun! Will be picking mine up later this week

[@DakotaCrossed]

As Someone who just ordered one of these I’m so glad that you have shared this fantastic video!

[@samibeemer7619]

I think car manufacturers are doin a great job as they let us change our minds on their designs after a while of the launche..

[@monraypretorius3585]

What an awesome intro. Took me right back to my childhood and the local arcade.

[@thbgruen]

I love cars like Jaguar, Benz, Maserati, BMW, Porsche or Ferrari and a lot of manufacturers and old school cars from Britain and the States. For me the IX looks in real lufe stunning. I don't like SUVs but this crossover SUV is absolutely amazing. My opinion.

[@geremymichel]

It’s pretty good looking actually

[@teamvigod]

I test drove the base iX4 today. I walked away impressed. Look forward to driving the M Sport version and also the i4 M sport. I agree the interior on this is cool but the exterior design they could have done better. trying to hard to look quasi-futuristic. Just give me an X3 or X5 that is electric! I have an X5M which I love so just give me that with an electric power train too as an option.

[@brunoheggli2888]

The grill is so lovely!

[@motormo8773]

Best intro ever!

[@georgeandreas4930]

Thumbs up for the intro alone 👍

[@woodreg]

The lights inside the bootlid are not some genius thought from BMW - they're a regulatory requirement (I think in US) so that the lights esp. the indicators, are visible when the bootlid is open...

[@PeterFarac]

That intro was frame by frame perfect!

[@640A]

They nailed everything except the exterior design, imagine IF it looked like the Lotus Eletre.

[@stealthpilot3116]

Agree. Btw when you see it in person, it is reminiscent of a minivan with the exterior proportions and the floating center console and open floor in the front.

[@fom_info]

Man, I love your editing skills. This is the most impressive review of iX I’ve seen, BY FAR

[@rikhil4220]

Intro was worth the week you spent on it!

[@jaydow9528]

The intro was 🔥🔥🔥🔥!!

[@dawnhardin8881]

Thank you for your review. I have 1400 miles on a Mercedes E53 that I hate! It will be my trade in on this. I’ve done so much research. Thanks for helping me make up my mind!

[@Moscarblog]

Wow really interesting switch Dawn! Why do you hate the E53?

[@dawnhardin8881]

@@Moscarblog The construction of the new Mercedes is awful. The first week I had it, it kept slipping from automatic into manual first gear on the highways. Gearing down at 70 miles per hour in highway traffic gets your attention fast! Tapping any hand gear should have quickly released the manual gear back to automatic. Nope! I had to get to the highway shoulder to turn the car off and restart. Mercedes of Asheville couldn’t find the problem. I’m not even convinced they believed me because they kept saying it was probably my fault. Finally, it stuck in manual gear permanently. They towed the car to the dealership, took the problem seriously, and took 3 weeks to fix it. Later, I drove over a speed bump and the coolant system fell down on the road. They had the nerve to ask if I had changed the bolts myself as if I wanted to be stuck in the country in freezing rain for 5 hours waiting for another Mercedes tow. They refused to admit to defective bolts so they charged me and my insurance for the fix. Apparently, the entire system falling off the car wasn’t “under Warrenty. I could write a book, but I feel “taken” by the car, the dealership, and even the manager. The dealership manager of Mercedes of Asheville called me screaming that I had better stay quiet about the car problems or he would refuse to service the car he sold me! I would have to drive 100 miles to get my PREPAID maintenance. That blackmail will only work while I have a Mercedes. I then actually called Mercedes USA to ask for help with this car that was in the shop more than in my garage. Mercedes USA apologized for my problems and sent me a coupon for $2,000 off on another Mercedes. Ah….NO THANKS! My BMW M550 is on order!

[@Moscarblog]

@@dawnhardin8881 I completely understand your decision! Wow so sorry to hear that! I reviewed an M5 and B5 maybe you are interested for one of them since you ordered the m550i

[@theanonymousone9668]

The rear camera washer cleans the camera but ruins the paint below it. Brilliantly conceived. Flawlessly executed👍🏾

[@savilleadams1468]

Best intros and transitions ! Epic!

[@aasimyousaf2455]

Something interesting that you pointed out.Although most people aren't fans of this design, a lot of the elements like the front and rear headlights could translate very nicely to a more traditionally shaped saloon like the upcoming i5 or i7

[@santana9537]

I7 will be amazing with its new tech, the theatre screen, automatic doors, and host of new engines. The new 5 series too with a saloon design with a sloping roof line 🔥

[@johnelegant1727]

Very enjoyable and informative video. Learned a bunch while having a good time watching it. WELL DONE! Subscribed.

[@Semendrija123]

Damn, that intro brings so much memories!!!

[@mdrobc13]

what about the BMW i4 M50? When are you gonna give us your thoughts on that...esp vs an equivalent Taycan or Polestar?

[@limitless88]

Mate, you do such a fantastic job with your reviews! Thank you 🙏

[@avexnsx]

you get a like just for that intro. Nicely done!

[@臺灣是國家臺灣是國家]

Looks are personal, I think it looks great!

[@RadsPanda]

Amazing intro bruv!

[@henryhealy]

I drove the iX 40 model a few months ago straight after driving a 545e. While the screens in the iX looked amazing, it just didn't feel as nice or as comfortable the 5 Series.

[@ColonelSternlove]

Intro man… that intro… beautiful

[@jondigene2233]

I really don't understand all the hate this car's looks gets. I actually like it! It looks futuristic, powerful and luxurious.

[@Driver20418]

It does look good

[@Driver20418]

Even though im a Mercedes Fan

[@johaniojo]

Well done with the technology overlays

[@highlydosed8672]

OK.... You're just too good. We get it..... Most underrated car really viewer on KZbin

Love the 3d overlays!

[@desmodromic640]

Great vehicle! Handles wonderfully and is extremely comfortable and versatile.

[@yand9571]

I’m thinking to replace my G11 with this beauty…

[@andersjensen1499]

Keep the tech team - fire the design team and BMW might have a winner

[@josefv-y8m]

Interestingly BMW Sets often the Standard for Future Design...the X6 is an ugly Beast...but any OEM has now SUV Coupés

[@fatdoi003]

is Chris Bangle back @ design helm?

[@onlyitj]

There is no problem in looks, it's people just repeating things, it's a good looking vehicle, and it drives like a dream

[@CharlieLiuPhotography]

That's a super dope intro. Subscribing for sure :)

[@Secretlyanothername]

I actually love the exterior. It's dynamic and fresh and strong. Everyone hates things that are new, and this doesn't look exactly like the cars that derive from the original Jeep/Landrover designs of the 1960s and 1970s.

[@ysjnr]

MY GOD I love this car!

[@vladimirvolkov7257]

Ix50 vs eqe suv 43amg best for you?)

[@JV-py3lg]

Get a like just for the intro. Enjoyed that

[@MOK109]

The intro was epic

[@hondaboy2001]

Sorry, but the car looks fine. It's very difficult to watch when all you're doing is slagging the car off. We get it. You don't like the design. Stop beating us over the head with it. For years car reviewers have been complaining that all cars look the same. But look what happens when a car manufacture dares to buck the trend. The iX looks great in person and especially in the red and gold.

[@ryze9560]

🤣that intro was epic💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[@hby7768]

Intro 10/10!!!!!!

[@aneebaba06]

Awesome intro! Please tell me the i4 M50 is coming soon (you know whyyyyy)?!?

[@jorgesantander7277]

😂🤣that intro was 💯% kiiler👍👌

[@florinvid]

Too bad it doesn't have the expressive, relaxation and digital art mode. I guess that's part of the iconic sounds package? Wonderful vehicle, love it!

[@kanon_od_ua]

I’m very interested what they will do with their next saloons. Especially i7

[@dhank2242]

Best. Intro. Ever.

[@MWHM2]

Fun fact: that animation on the climate control is probably to combat screen burn in, as permanently displaying something static on a screen can cause permanent burn in.

[@johnwenban9799]

What about the price? In Australia it is $180K !

[@tonixpto1]

When will we have the Porsche Taycan sportourismo GTS review? Looking forward to seeing...

[@lazziebardakos2956]

People who criticise the design team at BMW for this design but like the design of the G wagon have rocks in their heads

[@SDK2006b]

I really like the iX. Next car will be this or the Polestar 3

[@SDK2006b]

This weekend I ordered an iX ⚡👍

[@harrygyamfi3907]

Killer intro! :D

[@MrDodobmw]

Amazing introooo!

[@thesniper9992000]

Love the intro ^_^

[@mayormsuthu1465]

The only thing that I don't understand is when every car reviewer, complains about buttons being replaced with the home touch screen. I also find them buttons confusing in a running or moving car. I only wish that the artificial intelligence would improve so as to control everything without any struggle while moving. But then again most settings in a car are done or to be done while the car is not in motion.

[@iwolfdk]

F... H... what a cool intro, bringing back memory from my childhood.

[@BobKen-p5o]

Great review! Design works well in black imho - just putting it out there 😬

[@Stricks823]

The thing I like the most is having to handle all those screens and few buttons with my left hand being a right hand person

[@andreh.dupuis8475]

This is to leave your right hand ready to fight with your sword.. and why you drive on the left !!

[@SavedbyHim]

Dude, the EQC looks way better than this :P
