I do appreciate that BMW is the only brand to send out individual paint colors as tester cars. Voodoo blue M5, signal green M3's, it's great.

[@KealeyOnCars]

Wildberry metallic is *chefs kiss* also for all the amazing performance this offers, I took this on a 1500 mile road trip and averaged 80+ mph and still got 22mpg with this exact X6M. Thats surprisingly great for a 5000+ lbs truck.

[@brendanmc83]

Good to hear there is still decent MPG for long road trips. How was the ride quality? Not too raw/harsh, as this video seems to imply? My car leaves the factory on Tuesday.

Great review, as always! When you get a chance, since the 2024 X5 M60i is now equipped with the same S68 engine, could you review the BMW X5 M60i that is equipped with a Driving Assistant Professional Package (active-roll stabilizer) and provide your feedback and opinion. My lease on my 2021 BMW X5MC is ending and I am thinking about the M60i instead. Thank you!

[@tinotendazengeya3503]

have always loved how you review cars from the first episode I saw

[@jgway9980]

With regard to making a PHEV version, I picked up an X5 50e PHEV a few weeks back and couldn’t be happier with it. Traded in a base M8 for it and honestly the X5 feels peppier at slow speeds with in town driving because of the electrification. The X5 50e PHEV is an absolute bargain in my opinion. Please review it, you won’t be disappointed!

[@blazinmark1]

I’ve literally been asking him Motoman to do so for 3 months now. (Since I’ve p/u mine) I too came out of a V8 21’ M550. And I am loving the monthly trips to the gas station.

[@jgway9980]

[@rasta8088]

No matter what anyone thinks, I always love the looks of the X6.

[@MotoManTV]

Appreciate the honesty.

[@blazinmark1]

I totally agree with your assessment! Getting a PHEV with the S68 motor would elevate the platform. My X5 50E gets refueled once a month (2,000 miles) and when needed I throw it into Sport mode and it delivers the beans… (Still waiting for your X5 50e review btw)

[@The_Stanman]

That's what the XM is, no? Personally I think X5 50e powertrain is the perfect balance. Luxurious I6 instead of Merc's I4 PHEV In the C63, but lighter than V8 to offset some of the weight gain from PHEV. Still has more than enough power (could use S58 for more power).

[@blazinmark1]

@@The_Stanman I’ll take the legendary B58 motor over the highly sprung S58 for long term reliability. The XM doesn’t offer up to 50 miles on EV range alone like the 50E. Also, the price delta bet the 50E or X5M with the XM is staggering.

[@The_Stanman]

@@blazinmark1 the reason the XM has less electric range is bc it has the V8 (extra weight) and performance wheels/tires. It actually has a bigger battery than X5 50e. That's why I think 50e powertrain is 👌 XM sticker price is crazy but discounts means it's actually not much more than X5M. X5 50e is best of the bunch IMO. Can't wrong with S58 or B58. S58 is overbult so rock solid with no issues tuned to 800hp+. But B58 has more low-end grunt and crazy good fuel economy. Both are some of the best engines on sale.

[@MotoManTV]

LOVE that you refuel only once a month. A friend of mine @ church just got one and he does the same. Traded a Taycan for it. A Tesla before that. Waiting on a X5 50e to land in the fleet for a test.

[@JaviM22]

If it drives as you say, then it has to be a great M car, even though is an SUV. Is good to see manufacturers trying to develop great cars more than just appeal to everybody at the same time. BMW engineering is really up there so can´t say much against it.

[@MotoManTV]

Agreed.

How is a beautiful custom paint color not worth the money but $2000 for an option to raise the Vmax that you will literally never use is somehow worth the money? Lol 😂

[@bernard-francoistaylor4205]

Love your videos and your review on the X6 ///M. I actually have a 2024 X6 M60i which still has the 48 Volt mild hybrid V8, It does come standard with the M compound brakes without colored calipers. If you want blue, red, or black, you are paying extra for the color and M logo. Porsche does that with the Cayenne. Yellow is 9,080 and if you want black, it's an additional 900. I also have the Active Anti Roll Bar system. It comes in the Dynamic Handling Package which is unavailable on the ///M version. You can also opt for the Air Suspension in place of the 48 Volt suspension or standard. The last thing is I'm 37, have no kids, probably use the backseat once a month, and hardly ever use the trunk. I purely bought the car for its looks, premium feel, options such as the 48 Volt suspension, and lower consumables than the ///M version. I'm actually considering giving it up for the ///M version of the new 5 series when it's revealed and goes on sale.

[@mikewhaley5887]

Buy the M60i, I own one and love it!

[@ruk2023--]

I was so annoyed by the price of this and other performance SUVs that I went to the bother of running an inflation calculator and the reality is that the prices now aren't much different to 2001. An M5 back then was 120 grand in today's money. Considering the amount of tech that comes in cars today compared to back then it's surprising the cost of somthing like this isn't higher.

As to the Jeckly/Hyde efficiency on your wish list, they can simply put a second electric motor in the bell housing tuned for efficiency that’s supplied by that plugin hybrid battery. Yes it takes a sharper pencil to arrive at the correct hp/psi ratio but is achievable given the low end is already covered quite well already. Makes my 2023 IONIQ 5 AWD look like a lightweight. 😉 Let’s keep that PHEV at the same weight through savings that should be easy to find. 15:26 #nicereview

I dont think 48v systems should be marketed as hybrids. Avg consumers can't understand 3 types of different - mild, regular, and PHEV. Calling it a "hybrid" suggests real efficiency gains. But 48v sustems are more about smoother start-stop and running more accesories (and maybe +1mpg)

[@MotoManTV]

This one is a bit more than that. It adds about 150 pounds of torque from 0. That is what makes this so different.
