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!

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!

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_Stanman10 ай бұрын
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).
@blazinmark110 ай бұрын
@@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_Stanman10 ай бұрын
@@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.

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.

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.

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)

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
