I just purchased a 2024 X5. No sun glasses holder. I hate the ac control being in the screen but over all we love the car. Drove from Seattle to Reno and back 28 mpg. Now have 1800 miles on the car. Love the engine. Powerful.

I agree with all the zonks. I have a 2025 X5 50e model. Yes the criticism about controlling the ac/heat thru the display is cumbersome and distracting. However the ease at telling the personal assistant you are warm or cold is awesome. You can also voice control the seat heating/ventilation.

Last year I needed more space for my daily routine, so I swapped my 2021 M550i for a 2024 X5 50e. Such a great platform especially with the standard air suspension on both axles of the X5. My wife’s Q5 lease was up this year in May, and we decided to go with the 2024 Rx350… I’ll tell you what for 95% of drivers the RX is all the car they will ever need. Luxurious and comfortable with an easy to use to interface. For me however, a 4cyl was a no-go. I’m enjoying my 489 hp and 515 lb/ft of torque from the B58 and 25kw/h battery pack which yields 40-50 miles depending on outside temperature. I am sold on BMW for life!

I have seen a few of these X5 models on the road recently and I noticed the LED turn signals have a pulsing animation when they flash, similar to what Mazda is doing on their newer models. It looks pretty cool, although I am not a fan of the all red turn signals in the rear as having amber signals is statically safer than red ones.

@@Truckinstuff warranty? I’m not sure how swapping out a single exit tip for a quad tip would ever have anything to do with a warranty issue. With warranty issues the dealership has to allege the failure was materially caused by the alteration. Doesn’t seem like an exhaust tip swap would cause anything to fail. More concerning would be if you installed a tune or changed down pipes etc. A tip swap does changes nothing other than esthetics. If you did a muffler delete, or a cat delete that’s different

Another great review Joe! I've always loved the X5. However, I just can't stand the digital displays that manufacturers are putting in know. Something about nice analog gauges are sexy, and the digital displays actually seem cheap to me. I don't mind a digital infotainment screen, but don't care about it being a touch screen. I like our Mazda's navigation wheel. I can use it without taking my eyes off the road.
@fenrirslipАй бұрын
Aside from the updated X5 M, any trim below that the vehicle looks like it has a stuffed-up nose. There's too much gloss black upfront for all the X5 trims. But in all honesty, the updated front facia is nothing too offensive. But that infotainment screen looks so bad since it appears as if it was just stuck onto the dashboard.
