Honestly, it was the best decision I've made on a vehicle when I got my LCI X5MC last year. I'll never sell mine and I'm incredibly happy and impressed with it.

[@kevin6666123]

Good way of never having to deal with the biblical depreciation!

[@kvgbui565]

Hey how comfortable is it on uk road? Some say it's quite stiff for daily use

[@Tomoyo0827]

How do you find the road noise from the fire? I have had my x6m for 3 months and the noise on the highway is insane, the vibration and tire rolling noise is deafening….😢

[@Rob12345]

Best of luck with your vehicle. I love my 23 X5MC

I get a smile every time Joe uploads a video 😊

[@JoeAchilles1]

😁

[@phileagle8432]

I agree - I think the X5 LCI is probably the best looking BMW front at the moment and the X5 is near peak BMW in this SUV era (and the magical button is pure genius!)

[@stevechin1866]

That color combination is drop dead gorgeous

[@markrhoden68]

One thing i still love about BMW is they still offer options with regard colour of the interior. I personally find it so frustrating that some manufacturers dont give the option its all dark greys and blacks. Love the contrast in colours of this car

[@bryandsouza9905]

Exactly my point , I chose light colors for both the exterior and interior

[@jr4ff3]

Great vid Joe !!

[@jetrogamer]

Video i was waiting for thanks

[@JoeAchilles1]

Thank you!

[@NY20N]

Joe’s videos have influenced two of my car choices I’m sure I’ve mentioned before however this draws the line. Purely because I’ll need to sell my organs to fund one at the minute ! Much respect and love to Joe.

[@scottmcintyre551]

Great review. I really enjoy your reviews, only have discovered your KZbins over the last few weeks and the dozen or so I’ve watched have all been informative & interesting, cheers Scott from the Gold Coast, Queensland. Australia 🇦🇺

[@user-ep2zz3lb7u]

Great video. Thanks Joe

Legend - great review and thanks for answering me question! Just made it harder for me😂

Joe I admire your videos high quality and clear audio 🎉that’s incredible I enjoy watching your channel when are you visiting South Africa 🇿🇦

[@jrw366]

Thanks Joe…very thorough review…salute🫡

[@AgonxOC]

That cargo option with the hiding shelve is present in my 08/2019 build and still works! The option also has the rubber strips which hold whatever is on the in place. It is a pretty cool option!

[@stevewhite9653]

What an absolute beast. 😍

[@janwojda]

Great to see you Joe. My best mate from London meet you in bmw service with bikes and took the selfie with you few weeks ago and sent it to me. So jealous I am because I live in Perth WA. Watching your channel for last 4 years and I love your reviews. Keep up great work and when you back in AU let me know we catch up for a beer 😊

[@agostinhojosealexandre5594]

I love that feature.....woooohoooo very happy is back.

[@adzpeakyblinders6511]

😍 i need to order one soon 💯

[@R19Robbin]

Perfect daily driver 👌

[@andrewbeamish]

Great video Joe! I’d love one of these but I just couldn’t justify the extra £40K spend and so in 2021 I ordered my X5 M50i (Performance) - pre LCI of course- and it still puts a smile on my face every journey. Not sure I’m a fan of the new BMW dash setups ie: elongated screen with a serious lack of physical buttons. Thnx for a superb vid.

[@camadone1214]

Another top notch video Joe, great to watch 🙏. Went for a 50E as a daily as plenty of poke and better ride. New dashboard is great, but the retro fit on the revamp has left the cockpit dials at an angle when the steering wheel is straight. Once you’ve seen it it’s difficult to unsee it, otherwise great car and faultless 6,000 miles and counting…

[@schaeffs88]

Awesome video mate - thanks for putting this one together. Had my pre-LCI for 3 years and 30k miles and can say that it does absolutely everything you want from a family SUV but at the same time gives you a real smile when you push on. It’s genuinely a do it all car and can handle anything you throw at it with aplomb. The only car I’d look to replace it with is another X5M or the M5 Touring when that’s released.

[@bobsummers125]

Just bought one and love it!!! In the break in period

[@stephenlane9168]

Nice video Joe 👌what a great car, I’m a fan of the X5M

[@jermainenelson974]

Another great video Joe seems it’s been awhile since you posted or maybe I’ve not kept up. Keep up the great vids bro 😊

[@jermainenelson974]

My ultimate SUV of all time😊

[@AdamW77]

I love this car. I prefer the frozen black paint but those seats in the silverstone grey are great.

[@rafikshahnazarian7632]

What a fantastic looking BMW

Precision performance achieved

[@gregormuller2942]

I would like to see your review of 550e. Great review, as usual.

[@watchreviews4k]

Interesting content. Keep up the good work on your channel. Regards, WR4K

[@dgracer1]

Very enjoyable watch Joe. I won’t lie, I’m a BMW fanboy, I’m on my 6th BMW now (G30 520d M-Sport). My list is very varied E30 318i E36 B25 Alpina E46 320i F45 216d G30 520d (current car) E39 M5 (8yrs 100,000 miles ‘05-2013) Some family cars there as you probably guessed. I love the look of that X5M, great presence and possibly the ultimate sleeper. It’s a serious wedge of cash but BMW seem to have nailed it with looks, power and as always reliability. Top video Joe

[@user-bd6nm7du2j]

Does Harry know you're on his road!?

[@andrewbeamish]

He always is, must have a shared calendar with Harry so they don’t cross paths 😂

Can't wait for the next year to come to buy that beast ❤

[@Astrograss]

Loved the sneaky JLR product dig 😂

[@robertw.1499]

I drive a 2021 X3 30e X-Drive and I love it. I've also had the X3 30d, a couple of 5 Series Estates, a 435d Grand Coupé and two Z4s. All of them had one thing in common. They all allowed road spray and dirt into the engine bay, just like this X5 Competition. WTF BMW??? They produce amazing cars and can't sort out a fundamental thing like the filthy engine bay. Great vid as always Joe 👍

[@7krys]

Also, this x5 like other models from M division doesn't seem to have any radiator protection.

[@akashsp]

I had an XM rental in Dubai and surprisingly really loved it. But you’re right, too much money for what it is. I need to get behind the wheel of an X5M and then decide which I want

[@carlos081282]

Same streets that Harry drives…. Nice…. UK must be a small country 🇬🇧

[@msd6397]

In the lookout for something similar but the pre facelift, SQ7 or SVR. With all the negative stuff and insurance and liability I still find myself leaning towards a carbon edition SVR. Might be mad 😂😂

[@f13tch42]

Great review Joe

[@Tomoyo0827]

Hi Joel how do you find the road noice? I have had my x6m for 3 months and its tire and road noise on imperfect road surfaces is insane. How do you reduce that?😢

[@SM-od2jh]

Dream car

[@milo5656]

How did you find ride comfort compare to pre facelift 19 plate M5 Comp. ?My M5 was ridiculously harsh, not usable really on UK roads, amazing in Germany...Sold it at the end and swapped to X7 at the end.. So how comfortable did you find this X5 M ?Or compared to RSQ8 ?

[@marcelj2451]

Would you agree that probably the best X5 is the 50e. Also loads of torque. Super economical, almost 500 hp and a very descent price.

[@jetrogamer]

Is there a difference between 4wd and 4wd sport in terms of 0 to 60 sprint

[@harperium_3276]

I had an X3M for 3 years, loved it at the time, though it was not a great city car (side-to-side jostling and lack of low end torque). Now I drive a G80 M3, and it's darkened my opinion of the X3M. Though the X3M could perform more than expected, it's not in the same league as the M3. In a fast corner, the X3M felt high and heavy; the M3 feels like it belongs. The X5M seems like a much better performance SUV than the X3M, given its ride and torque range, and I think its proportions are better. But I guess I'm now one of those snobby M car drivers who looks at the X3M and X5M and asks "WHY???"

[@dnice362]

My favorite vehicle.

[@udhirhunsraj9663]

Any the update with the m2 comp

[@_M3NACE_]

M3 xDrive or one of these as a daily? 🤔

I love my 2020 x5m got 2wd mode coded in

[@amirzahur8670]

How do the running costs compare to the touring M3?

[@Slammedtothefloor]

This to me beats the XM by a mile design wise, the rear of the XM annoyed me and this is so much nicer.

[@makaskar]

Please review the BMW X5 50e

In France,, X5 M Competition 60 000 € of CO2 penalty, XM 0 €.

Which 0-100 kph app that you used please.? Thanks and keep up with the good work… Shout out Australia Melbourne. Loved all the videos you have done with Paul.❤ Australia loved you Joe❤🙏🏻👌🏻

[@TheFakePseudonym]

I think it’s a shame they don’t offer air suspension in this. I know it would lose some of that insane ability for an SUV, but for how you are really going to use it, it feels like that would be a game changer.

[@ofarah08]

I have the m60i and it’s plenty fast for me. Plus the seats are a lil more comfy lol

[@lakidis6569]

Hi .. He was saying about 22,5 mpg.. Is it the same for the m60i..??

[@ofarah08]

@@lakidis6569I get about 23mpg average but that’s because I do alot of highway drive. I can see 18-20 if you do alot of city

[@andrewbeamish]

I’ve got the M50i (71 plate pre LCI) and I love it.

[@Axon_Lungu]

I still want the 2022 X5 M competition. The only initiative they've engineered on this new model is sharp response like the RS6 Audi.

[@johngoodwin1710]

Pay £140k for a wicked parcelshelf 💪. Get an X5M on the side.

[@whatupitsmikey]

What is the app he uses on his phone to do the 0-60 times?

[@leekindell9937]

I just can’t decide between a 12 month old 50e with air ride or the x5m. Different cars I know and economy in x5m prob be around 16mpg all the time. But it’s not my everyday car. I drove a 50e the interiors are beautiful in these so light and open and look great

[@jetrogamer]

Another thing can you do 0 to 60 again in summer i believe this can beat last generation

[@davidfinch1066]

How about this vs X5 M60i?

[@joaomarques8260]

You answered my question first! Humbled 🙂. Well I sold my G05 X5M comp and have my Porsche turbo e hybrid with gt package buying built, to be delivered in July. Had the exact same spec, marina bay blue with ultimate package and white leather, was sad to see it go 😞 You forgot another benefit, hybrid gets ridiculous tax benefits as a company car - the only thing good this electric crap has 😅So will be able to do a proper comparison! I’ll let you know my thoughts If interested! Cheers!

[@Graham_Shaw]

I'm not into SUV's at all, but the new X5M is much better looking than the XM in my opinion. Performance is WAY more than anybody needs, Cost is way beyond my means.

[@twapalwatns]

Everything about It is definitely WAY 😂😂

[@Sierra_mike]

Whats the reliability like on these? I personally don't like the LCI models mainly because of the new infotainment screens.

[@b4bmm]

Bruv out here drifting SUVs :)

[@MrX12875]

Interestingly, the base X5M Comp is more expensive here in Norway than the base XM as of now. I would never have thought.

[@ravitaheem4272]

Why is the steering wheel not heated also does not have advanced driver assist pack, is it not available ?

[@JoeAchilles1]

Steering wheel is heated.

[@auchen888dolly8]

Joe which bmw is better the M5 Comp or the X5M ?

[@JoeAchilles1]

Very good question! As a drivers car, it would have to be the F90 M5 C, as a complete (practical) package, maybe the X5M...

[@jonasbaine3538]

I think the X3M and X5M make it easier to have one vehicle that does everything. The vast majority of people aren’t doing track days with an M5 or X5, just daily life transportation at high speed😎.

[@MarkB4444]

Rear wheels always look weirdly small on the X5 Also don’t seem to be able to configure carbon ceramics?

[@bikeomatic8005]

Im sure they were tempted to put in the split head lights just like in new x7/7 series plus the meh dashboard cluster of screens 🥱

[@satoshiblack1046]

Only ever liked the very first one, definitely wouldn't be my option on blowing 140k 😂 a nice deposit on a flat on the south coast that appreciates not the other way around

[@aficio698]

At last a good looking BMW. Beautiful colour combinations and a dream to have. But the price is so high very few have d means 2 finance. 🤓 Never mind d levels of depreciation. 😵‍💫

@@supremeetnel7707 I dunno, I'd like to see a comparison.

Didn’t mention that this, unlike the M60i (which is also more comfortable), doesn’t have 4WS.

[@JoeAchilles1]

I didn't, definitely not missed and feels more organic without it.

[@Engineer20201]

As a 23 Cayenne GTS owner, Porsche is better in terms of ride quality and handling and driving. On other side BMW is better in terms of tech, seats, warranty, service and price

[@omerta2002]

The XM will probably go down as BMW', & the M Dept for that matter, biggest fudge ever.

[@Rocketboy-qg6ts]

And 50% depreciation over 3 years…. What could we buy with £70k 🤔 And 22 mpg?? 🤣

The facelift grille and headlights are a downgrade. At least the mechanical side is still good.

[@Laughitupfuzzball439]

[@brownhairydog6472]

I love cars. I love V8s. And im not overly pushing green agenda. However I just cant see this as the right direction. 2.5 tonnes and 4sec suv which no one will ever take on a mountain pass. At 150k surely a base model x5 and second hand 911 or M3 are more attractive.

[@schaeffs88]

Mine has just been on an epic road trip in Switzerland - mountain passes all day and it feels like a nimble rally car driving them - a good mountain pass is when the car is at its best - and that was with 4 up and skis onboard! It’s not quite as good as my 992 GT3 handling wise but it’s not far off and I can’t give it any higher praise than that.

Look like the same car to me the only difference is the big screen and the front end

[@UCZ15]

Hmm. That’s Porsche Cayenne money at this point, no? If all cars are getting to these price points now…

[@schaeffs88]

It’s actually better than the Cayenne - I’ve driven them back to back (Turbo S e-hybrid) and the X5MC is a better steer and more exciting drive. You’ll be saving money and getting a better car.

[@AnnoyedGlobe-sf9yo]

Yeah the last one was better in almost every way.

[@JoeAchilles1]

Explain?

[@JnnNkc2205]

Exterior looks quite good,nice color,but interior...that tablet style dash is disturbingly ugly.

[@borghorsa1902]

The idea is to turn "football (soccer) mom mobile" X5 into sports car. I don't think it works. The biggest problem with X5 is that it looks....plain, cut off the front part and the main body is indistinguishable from Honda Pilot. You can slap 3000 HP engine on a school bus and it will be fast too.

[@JohnGuidetti751]

Get your eyes tested asap. What a stupid take. Looks nothing like a Honda Pilot.
