The BMW X5 M50I Is Quite Surprising | SUV Review

The BMW X5 has been around for several decades and in this latest generation its got the M50I trim level and its quite the surprising SUV. Why? Because even though its not a full M car, it still has the M badge and it feels like it.
When I got the opportunity to review the X5 M50I i was curious on what type of SUV it would be. I knew this generation of the X5 is a fantastic car, but how would the V8 and the M badge change it. Safe to say it changes it quite a bit. Watch the review to find out!

Dude, I have watched lots of M50i videos before and after buying our 2020 M50i last year with only 5000 miles on it and somehow I missed yours before now. Well done! Personally I think our non air suspension is fine because although my wife and I are older than dirt(76)we do not mind having some feel for the road surface we are traveling on. We think it helps to keep us sharp and not fooled into some kind of Cloud 9 heavenly driving experience which at our age could make us fall asleep with bad consequences thereafter. We have owned 5 BMW's over the past few decades and so far have loved every one of them. Our car has all the bells and whistles like Driver Assistance Pro and at our age stuff like that is a terrific. Thanks! PS Regarding the exhaust note I think it is ridiculous how people can make a car buying decision based on an exhaust sound that they only hear when they start up the car in their garage and occasionally when they stomp on the gas pedal, when passing other cars. Weird. Of course it is of supreme importance if you own a Harley-Davidson motorcycle then, of course, exhaust sound is of major importance. 🤣🤣🤣

I have been driving one of these for a year and a half. You can set up so that the top and bottom open together and as another person commented - you can close both at the same time - it does not get confused! I have also optioned the air suspension - its really plush and super comfortable. I have set up individual sports to have everything the same as comfort except the suspension - which I keep in sport. This is still super comfortable but not so floaty - I prefer this when on my own- the family love the floaty feeling the air suspension provides

The X5 rear hatch and tailgate are called the clam shell. Because the top and bottom closes together like a clam shell. Just a little info in case you didn't know. 🤗

Thanks you saved me a lot of trouble I am going with the Porsche Cayenne GTS I think 😅

[@DriveSteady]

Would be a great choice.... do you need a porsche dealer contact?

[@Trackhawk_Gle53]

Thanks for the explanations on the driving confort I will go for an x5m40i or 45i. Btw very good review !

[@thatschill777]

Neither of those exist. There's a x40i or an x45e and this was the m50i.

[@Trackhawk_Gle53]

@@thatschill777 yes I know it’s the X5 40i M sport package if you take this option

[@darkblader-zr7zo]

Great Video ❤

[@DriveSteady]

Thank you!

Me love BMW

[@JonathanMoosey]

6:23 if you close the top part of the tailgate first, they will both close automatically. So you were wrong in that aspect.

[@DriveSteady]

Thanks for the info!

The x5m is the one to get…

[@tren380]

This will do 4.1 0-60mph and if you throw a Race Chip on it, it drops to 3.6 0-60.

[@DriveSteady]

Yup. It's a really quick suv

[@richardrobin395]

Is it better than bmw x6 m50i?

[@BeamerTime354]

It is technically the exact same when it comes to performance but I can tell you I got the x5M because it has more space in the back. Save yourself and get the x5 for 3k less with more space and same performance.

100%
