There’s no 3rd row option on any X5 - someone who works for BMW
@damilolaakanni5 ай бұрын
I always thought the X5 never got a third row from the beginning. At least the 1st generation didn't.
@MicahMuzio5 ай бұрын
Thanks for noting that! I clearly whiffed the 3rd row point. When researching BMWs, it's often difficult to find all the specs using American media and consumer assets. So, I'll research the global media site as well. According to BMW, the xDrive40i is offered with a 3rd row option...but apparently not in the USA. I appreciate you chiming in!

Any and all BMW M vehicles feel firm because they tighten the chaises and put on large wheels with thin sidewall tires. People who want a high performance car they can track will put up with that, but most people would probably be better off with a lower trim of X5 that blends performance and comfort in a more balanced way.

Just bought a 2025 pretty loaded, the reverse system you showed will actually work on the app when you’re OUTSIDE the vehicle! It’s insane. And the Drivers Assist Pro package with that adaptive cruise does work well, up to 85 mpg on most highways hands free and the lane change recommendation works when you have a destination inputted. It’s almost too smart.

The fact the base B58 mild hybrid can propel the 4900lb X5 to 60 in 5.3 seconds is pretty crazy. That is already quick for such a large SUV. My 2017 X3 xDrive35i with the N55 3.0l also does 0-60 in 5.3 at 4200 lbs and feels way less fun and sporty than my slower 330ci ZHP that will do 5.5. The extra weight and height of the driving position saps so much enjoyment out of the driving experience that I never really drive the X3 in a sporty manner even when it is very capable. I do love the extra cargo capacity and practicality though.

Why? If you don’t like one of the top five most powerful SUV’s in the world, for speed, torque and drive quality, then get a slower V6, which is a disappointment compared to the M competition. It’s a true M and a competition on top of that. It’s a super SUV. I love mine.

I just drove the X5 Competition and X5 M50i back to back. I found the seats in the Competition just not for me. The M50i was more comfortable paired with the ability to change the drive mode from Sport/Comfort/Eco, for me anyway, it seems to be a great daily driver. The Comp is a beast for sure, but they share the same engine (less HP), but equipped with the Executive package, Driving Assistance Package, Parking Assistance package, Bowers and Wilkens sound...it was awesome!

The colour of this car is very nice. Since this is the M Competition version, it makes me wonder if we'll ever see these cars actually compete in a F1-like or NASCAR-like racing series. It could a revival of the old-fashioned "Win on Sunday, sell on Monday" races from the late 1940s to the early 1980s. I like the AI song at the end, BTW. Your AI is100% LESS creepy than all the other stuff get up to in AI! Well done!

I own an older BMW and I see they have continued the tradition of over engineering almost everything. Cargo covers and cup holders that require you to consult the manual 🤔 Staggered wheels and so many adjustable settings that make it seem complicated to operate. Definitely most of what you need and would use is found on the base model. Unless you gotta have 50K in options.🤣
