New BMW X5 M50d Review - Quad-turbo Monster?

[@kylesiane6952]

This M50d is really an amazing car,I drove this for a good 6 months..the torque is simply perfect for it and it’s not underpowered at all..I live in Botswana and our roads aren’t exactly spacious or suitable for very high speeds but this serves its purpose very well...I hauled my family in it and it was amazing that I could smoke any versions of the C63 from stand still and rolling,it’s a wonderful car..simply amazing in every aspect. Fun car!

[@semireality]

I drove the new M50d and my own 2015 M50d with air suspension back to back and was absolutely not thrilled by the new car's ride and handling. The new M50d certainly has better synthetic exhaust sound going on but mechanically, it doesn't feel like a major improvement over the old one. Will try it again when I can get a 7 seat version with air suspension.

[@johncreedon7847]

F15 x5 on rear air uses adaptive dampers to stiffen it up. It's far better and more precise and stable than the dual air on the new car

[@nawanekhomo3159]

Still think that 30d is a better buy with all the extras

[@emzitodemob]

I think the 3ltr would then be a better option if you're looking for a family car. Unless of course you just want to brag that u have 4 turbos in your beemer

[@ncvvalley9736]

@@emzitodemob both the 30d and 50d are 3ltr...

[@stubones]

Truth. The 30D is not much slower and it's quite a bit more economical. The M50D is a "want" car.

@@EndTheFed1933 If the car is gonna keep staying into their garage like other BMW's you bet you will worry.Put 8 turbochargers on the next one... If you take turbos off this it will be slower than a economy n\a hatchback.

[@stubones]

ShmeeSHemmmShublyou didn't develop the quad turbo engine specifically for the new X5. They developed it a couple of years ago and put it in the 750D and in some markets, the M550D (G30). They're not going to develop multiple engines in multiple configurations. Anyway great video.

[@bobojo8591]

hi Nice video. When will you review the X7?

how many turbos sq7 have ?

[@hsmedsvik]

Didn’t BMW first introduce quad turbo in the previous Generation M5? Same engine that was used in M6/X5M/X6M?

[@Trf11Racing]

This engine can push out way more than 350Kw , as we shall see with the X5M50d Competition

[@thegreat0220]

Can a diesel become a Competition?

[@punchthedog]

The current BMW 750d/750Ld uses basically the same engine, and also has 4 turbochargers.

Yup, it is the exact same engine. The engine has been around for a couple of years and is also in the M550D.

PS: I found it amusing that this car has the same 0-60 and the same power (approx) as a 2009 ML550 with 285kw, 0-60 in 5.3 and it too is a torque monster that you barely touch the pedal to woosh past people and all they hear is a woosh of air. Congratulations BMW. You've made a megacruiser to go toe-to-toe with the 10-year old ML550.

[@RasmusandPiper]

The 3 years old SQ7 is way more impressive. Also a 12 years old audi Q7 V12 TDI Anyway, close to an audi Q8, that offers the same trunk and more space on the rear seats, the X5 looks 5-7 years older to the audi. Also, the bmw is likely more expensive to run because the mild hybrid Q8 offers a great MPG on this category (also offers, dual pane glasses, B&0 3d hi-fi and a lot more features than this X5).

[@lawrenceonline]

Those VW are not in the same league as an X5, plus Q7 is utterly ugly and boring Audi hardly sell that boat

[@RasmusandPiper]

@@lawrenceonline ugly is subjective, I find X5 and GLE way uglier than Q7 and XC90.
