2018 BMW X5 | Full Review & Test Drive

[@melliemcghee6349]

My husband just surprised me with one today. I love it

[@Calipanda]

Buying one today!🎉 thanks very informative

[@jonathanlauber389]

I just bought this exact model.. it’s very sleek and feels luxurious in the cabin. I am a little disappointed with the lack of performance but I didn’t expect 300 hp to feel aggressive. All in all it’s a great vehicle but my next X5 will be the X5 M50i..

[@katyklassmeyer1794]

I drove my cousins x5 today and I’m seriously impressed. Might have to pick one up soon

[@e.k.1215]

Great review, matched my perception exactly when I drove it, great value for the $$!!

[@bimmer4755]

I just want to say one more time I really think you did an awesome job on this review. And from some one who works at plant Spartanburg I'm glad you enjoyed this x5!

[@TheTestDrive]

That's awesome! I love the X5. I own an E70 diesel and BMW continues to make the X5 better and better with each generation. My dad owns an E70 X5 as well--he picked his up from the factory in SC and did the tour and driving school. Must be an awesome place to work! Glad you liked the video!

[@juliamihajlovich]

Much more attractive than the 2019 x5. More sleek and classy. I don’t want a sporty suv

[@TheTestDrive]

I’m not thrilled about the 2019 X5 but maybe it will look better in person. It will definitely take some getting used to

[@Bellalukatravelsalot]

I’m looking at buying one, I didn’t think there was Apple car play. Are you sure it comes standard in the 2018?

[@alcasino1739]

best review

[@adnansahi7474]

I am about to buy X5 xdrive35i. How’s overall reliability?

[@entreptiles]

Nice review. My spouse and I have two of the 2017 models 😇

[@TheTestDrive]

Thanks! I might consider owning two X5s but my wife would hate driving the same car as me!!

[@Scotford_Maconochie]

Is the graphite paint scheme leans more towards black or dark grey? I'll miss the platinum grey metallic on my '13 X5 when I trade in for a white 2018 X5 35i but on this one it doesn't have the LED fog light as standard..

[@DD-1996]

@The Test Drive I like the revving engine!

[@Ilanactingreel]

lots of weird creepy haters here lol

[@evangelinedellucci7165]

I loved and enjoyed your video. I would love to have a 2018 BMW x35i. I have a screen shot of it on my phone. It's my hearts desire to have one to win. 💓

[@dstreamer]

Hi, are you certain that this comes standard with Android Auto?

[@ramborghini4485]

What's the name of the music at the beginning?🔥🔥🔥

[@ToOpen6seven]

Is the car reliable??

[@eg5506]

The X5 is what competes with Q7’s and all other large SUV’s. If the X7 comes out it a whole other thing

[@eg5506]

Dylan Matthew you’re the tool who owns a poor pack X5

[@taylorpeeples563]

I’m thinking about getting one for my birthday 😉think I’m going to leave Volkswagen for bmw even though they are the same company

[@john2011jb]

Can you drive the Genesis G90 and the G80 it would greatly be appreciated

[@TheTestDrive]

As soon as I can get one I definitely will!

[@OldGodsOnNewStreets]

Either I have the exact same car in terms of addons, or I just bought this actual car... NY State.

[@DD-1996]

@The Test Drive What is a performance vehicle exactly?

[@TheTestDrive]

To me it's a vehicle with the primary purpose of performance driving (acceleration, speed, handling)--high horsepower/torque, stiff suspension, etc. In the BMW lineup pretty much any M-badged vehicle, including the X5M. This is really a family SUV meant to be comfortable on long trips and with enough space to accommodate people and gear. But that's something I love about BMW, that even a mid-size family SUV like this can still perform and be a lot of fun to drive fast.

[@Unplugged704]

Question - If BMW offer's 5 yr/60k miles warranty... why would someone buy a BMW that is CPO? Trying to follow... lol

[@wordtruth6116]

Dude, Love to see little more of the interior of the car then your face. No offense.

[@TheEelnoraa]

Reviewer that says everything is great is not a reviewer. It is a fanboy. I test drove one today, for the same MSRP, I do find xc90 maybe a better choice. Q7 3.0T is definitely a better SUV.

[@TheTestDrive]

TheEelnoraa LOL not a fanboy at all. I review a lot of cars and all of them have negatives but this one doesn’t have very many. I mentioned the third row is extremely cramped. I haven’t driven the XC90 yet but I am going to. The Q7 has more space but it’s also over half a foot longer...the X7 will compete better with the Q7 and GLS when it comes out, which I also mentioned how the X5 doesn’t compete as well against those two. The Q7 3.0T outperforms the X5 35i but I wish the Q7 offered more engine options in North America. This wasn’t really a comparison video but rather an overview of the features and driving experience of this X5. Anyway thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it 👍

[@bimmer4755]

I think you did a great review on the f15

[@utah658]

DrNoraa But the Q7 exterior is rather a boring or should I say bland design. The x5 offers a few different variant which is a plus.

[@근육대장-o3s]

2:47 is really x5 sound? I think this sound isn't normal sound..😓😓

[@aidenp5768]

제현 Normal sound..

[@hitokiriedu]

Bmw does not offer Android play only Apple Car

[@aidenp5768]

Eduardo Farfan Aymar They do now it's new 2018

[@hitokiriedu]

is it? cause last time I check they don't offer android auto. and less they don't wanna offer is here in the main BMW Germany. Perhaps is different where you are...

[@GooseVan]

It doesn't drive well in the base config. The drivetrain us excellent though. The base suspension is too soft with lots of body roll, the runflat tires are too hard. It's soft but not comfortable. The steering, oh well, horrible, extremely light thar you have to hild it really tight at high speed so you won't loose control. I expect more from BMW. Well, all can be fixed by some packages, but expensive packages. Interior is a huge step up from the old E70 gen. Everything else is step backwards. I have e70 and f16, no more.

[@mattX5]

...stop being jealous just because you own the older model. The new one is superior to your cheaply made, plasticky E70 any day.

[@janzibrik3551]

Don't like fake exhaust

[@livndays45]

Jan Zibrik X5 has twin exhaust. But there’s a valve that’s closed at startup and only opens at certain rpm

[@sidm5982]

It looks like a minivan ,BMW needs to step up their design game

Rob you are cute

[@dlhussain81]

That’s not real engine sound...

[@aidenp5768]

DLH It actually isn’t

[@johngaudet6316]

X3 is much nicer, especially m40i way better looking. Its not a soccer mobile.

[@TheTestDrive]

I personally still prefer the bigger size of the X5 but the X3 m40i is really awesome!!

[@ryanshen767]

Don't buy X5 at this time, it's already a 5 years model. Wait for new model!

[@aidenp5768]

It's 3 and a half after the summer it's 4 years old they will depreciate too.

[@Agent77X]

This current F15 is the best X5 that BMW will ever produced! Nothing in the future will be better then this generation. For only $77K you get a SAV!

[@Sica1000]

you are just driving and talking, no siting on the backchairs etc. poor review.

[@ms.andrea172]

3rd world problems! Lol

[@takuan650]

What is so exciting here? It's just another boring looking SUV handled by a fan boy.

[@dont331]

Boring is an understatement. Side profile looks like a bumped up minivan. Personally, I choose not to drink the Kool-Aid.

[@dlhussain81]
