Meet the all-new BMW X5!
Mat’s got his hands on BMW’s latest family-friendly SUV to find out if it’s the perfect all-rounder, and to do that, he’s going to give it a proper Carwow reviewing! So let’s get into it…
Starting with the design, there are a couple of notable changes on the outside compared to the latest edition. Around the back, you’ve got new tail light designs and an updated bumper, while along the side there are new alloy wheel designs, and in the M Sport edition we have here you’ll also find black surrounds on the windows, coupled with black roof bars. Around the front, it’s similar to the rear, with new headlights and an updated front bumper. Couple these changes with the hard-edged creases along the side, and we think the X5 is a proper good-looking car!
Step inside and it’s a traditional BMW, with soft-touch materials found throughout the cabin. The X5 now comes with BMW’s latest curved infotainment screen and digital dial display, and there’s loads of storage to be found throughout the cabin. The seats are also pretty comfortable as well.
There are a couple of engines to choose from. Two 3-litre straight-six diesels deliver either 300hp or 350hp, while there’s also a 3-litre straight-six turbo petrol coupled with an electric motor, that can put down 490hp. However, the range-topper is the M60i, which has a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 that can deliver 530hp.
The new X5 starts from around £69,000, rising up to around £94,000 for the range-topping edition. So is it worth it? Or should you choose a GLE or Q7 instead? Stick with Mat and see for yourself!

Why not an SUV drag race between 2024 BMW X5 vs BMW X1 Rally Car vs Pajero Sport Dakar?
your bottle fetish confuses me always 😂
Hmm it's Elementary Watson ☺
Did they stop X7s production? Wanna see that compared with the X5 7seater, throw a gls while you at it 🤔
No one cares about the business of carwow, people only want to see the reviews.
One of the better looking new BMWs recently.
Agreed
better then all the others recently! 😅
Fairly low bar right now tbh and a shame about the stupid money price. Talk about gouging your customers.
Because it's not a new gen but LCI or else all the new gen looks awful.
No way 🙅
4:13 no way we just saw this...💀💀💀
😂Matt trying to breakdance was not something I'd ever thought I'd see him do
I had to pause and look for the video
@@user-lj2fj7un2ddid you find it? Title?
@@user-lj2fj7un2ddid you find it? What's the title?
Did you found the whole video?
4:13 my man got some moves 😂😂😂😂
i appreciatre it by the way
Its crazy that BMW stopped putting angel eye/halo headlights in. They are the founders of it and they look so good that tons of car manufacturers and after market manufacturers copy it
That's really dumb they did that
Yup them corona rings were the signature look
I think the issue is that they don't last that long compared to today's technology headlights, plus I think they are pretty expensive to replace them. At least, that's what the issues that a friend had with his BMW.
Cost cutting Iguess
Saw loads of bmw with burnt angel eyes since 2017, other brands also with led tech
4:13 damn Matt got some moves there ...
That touchscreen demo of things that used to be a flick of a switch is LITERALLY INSANE!!
Carmakers, please stop trying to reinvent the wheel.
you can configure the screen to show rev counter in all modes, also you can option rear reclining seats.
really will i get it convertable
Can you option the head lights without condensation?
@@jackdominiak445Thats an extra £5k
"Can option" 🤦
@@JRGionot everyone speaks english as their first language kid🤦♂️
Got mine about 4 months ago, and i'm loving it! i went with the Blue Ridge Mountain color for the exterior with some other options available in the US. Wonderful vehicle
RR 350D = avg 37 mpg, Touareg 282D = avg 38 mpg. Diesel has not been forgotten by some of us, the best for larger vehicles, long distance and fast journeys.
I don't know why people hate diesel.
And one big benefit of an “economical” luxury car is the big range.
My family still drives a BMW X6 35d from 2009
It can go 900 km full of people and luggage on one tank of fuel.
I live in Sofia Bulgaria.
I can go to Istanbul, to northern Greece, to Bucharest, to Belgrade and back and fuel in petrol stations in Bulgaria I am comfortable with and feel safe.
Matt can make any car look average with a few knocks and scratches.
Hey Mat! Love all your vids! What’s your opinion on this vs the facelifted Cayenne?
They’re on my shortlist currently and I can’t make up my mind 😅
I really like the iPad/cell phone attachment on the rear of the front seats. All cars should have them. As someone tall with long femurs, I can truly appreciate BMW's attention to a long seat cushion. What most car manufacturers (and people) take for granted
That brown leather though ❤
Agreed, my favorite interior colour
@@shane6115 Mine too, gonna buy an X6 next year with exact interior seats and color, looks amazing.
@@AdiiS your a lucky guy to be able to afford one, good luck with it fella
@@AdiiSwish the X6 and X5 has an engine swap option though.
@@shane6115 I worked hard AF bro the last 2 years I hadn't have a single day of vacation or sick leave. I invest also much of the capital which now grew a good amount, I could buy the car now but I don't want to sell my assets right away, I'll wait a little bit more. Anyway thank you and I wish you all the best my guy
I drive a BMW X3 with the Parking Assistant. I never had a problem with it and it also works in very small gaps. I love it in my opinion one if the best systems
When he tested that system, he tested it on a street where the sidewalk was at the same level as the street and without markings, it was expected to have problems.
Yeah, in that condition it was clear that the system would struggle. But normally my BMW mirrors the car in front. If it doesn‘t see a curb.
Even on my 2015 X5 diesel M sport the air suspension is amazing. Even when the airbags got worn out and I had to replace them, I was able to do it myself each side took 15 minutes to replace them
4:05 😂😂😂 gotta love a bit of comedy from Matt 🤣👌🏻
I’ve got mine already on order. Happier now after watching this. Thank you. 👍😎
Have had mine for a few months and it's a daily joy, youre gonna love it 🥳
What do you do for a living? Cars so expensive
@@zSilverWingz Expensive for who? This is super cheap for some that they wouldn’t bother with. I’ve actually purchased it for my wife as a family wagon. For me, I’m waiting for the new M5 competition and theirs plenty of people who wouldn’t even consider this one as it’s too cheap for them. So what actually determines “expensive”? 🤔
@@marcusgeorge1825but still, what do you do for a living? 😂 There are people working on minimum wage dreaming about buying something like this some day.
@@AsifAli-zf8bm It’s an irrelevant question. Let me just say I started on minimum wages and by hard work and dedication the results have paid off. Didn’t come from money, had to do it all the hard way.
watching on a Sunday morning with a coffee a car review of a car i will never be able to afford. but it's still a joy to watch.
The breakdance bit was glorious 🤣
The condensation in the headlights is now a normal thing for many newly designed cars. I come from the old school where that was a no-no because we all had sealed headlight units. But apparently many newly designed headlight units are not now sealed and therefore condensation does get in behind the front face. The reason I know this is that I have a new Audi Q8 and it " suffers " from the same thing. The car came with the new lazer lights which are superb. However on an Audi Q8 owners forum we all discovered that we had this condensation and when we queried this with Audi UK they said that it was a normal occurence and was not a problem as the units are designed in that way !
Bad design then
@@ukaszpaluch4950No. There are reasons why the headlamp units are not air sealed.
Why won't they (Audi UK)
accept it as a design/production flaw instead of defending it as if it's normal and okay for a headlight to behave that way. Condensation inside the headlight of $60k+ car is unacceptable
BMW says the same. Noticed it with the wife’s new X1 .. all good !
LED headlights don’t produce enough heat to dispel the fog, holes are there to allow air circulation inside
Will pick upmy X5 M60i tomorrow!! Love the car
4:13 matt dance💀
You can see the rev counter in comfort mode. Just press the three lines button on the right of the steering wheel, and swipe through and you will find the layout with the revs.
What a ridiculous faff - should be there in front of you!
i love this particular spec - any way to get hold of the configuration?
I've had one since May of last year. Its my second X5 (3rd BMW). Absolutely in love with it.
cauz its bmw
You must be rich
Got the X6M Competition myself. A Rocketship. There's no detriment to the car. Always those who whine about BMWs looks won't be able to afford a 30yo used car.
Obviously easy pleased and not bothered by dated looks.
@@aldcar Yes, you must have a very small sized doodle doo.
The break dancing was amazing. Do it again.
Owesome verdikt👍 I own the 45e hybrid. The non facelift version. What a machine❤️👌
German cars, appreciating diesel, this is why I've been a subscriber to Mat Watson since carbuyer.
The B57 engine is absolutely fantastic, rivalled only by its petrol B58 sibling, and it runs so effortlessly in my G31. I'm still really ticked off that BMW have decided not to bring it to the UK with the new G60 5 series, even though diesel is still far and away the best option for long distance family haulers/execu-mobiles.
Can you imagine when the screen fails? "That will be 14 320 eur, please"
Would love to see you do a test on the Alpina XD3/4,sadly not available in the UK with the 396ps engine
I assume that the guy who had the brilliant idea of removing the buttons of the cruise control from the steering wheel doesn’t have a driving license.
I was on a trip today and wanted to change the distance I just said "distance control" and the menu popped up so it wasn't too bad.
I believe BMW made it on purpose for safety reason - the biggest distance is default now and if you want it smaller/shorter, then you have to make the effort. Doesn't make sense for end-user, but makes sense for them
dark blue BMW X5 with a cognac interior
Matt , wich version of the diesel engine is this , the one with 300 hp or with 350 hp ?
300 hp
Nice to see they've gone back to the old school rear cup holders in the arm rest.
Mat, No mentioning of the actual physical unit for torque in newton-meters??
Best part about the car is the nice diesel engine, it just makes sense for big cars
You guys dont get the 3.0 i6 gas engine? That thing absolutely rips (0-60 in 4.7 seconds) and still gets over 30 mpg on the highway. Best thing about it is that it’s the base engine in the USA, no paying to upgrade.
Yes, we get that engine. It’s the 40i - which is a 3.0 litre.
1.9tdi would be better for this car
@@MKRM27 oh weird i didnt hear Mat mention it
I believe the 40i is now no more. The only option for a 3.0 litre petrol is the 50e hybrid
@@xTurtleOWyou meant the 3.0 twin or quad turbo diesel b57, right?😅
So nice to see a car review video again and not a drag race. Keep up the amazing content.
Can you get an x40i in US with air suspension? If I choose M sport package it comes with M sport suspension. Is it possible to get air suspension instead? Also how much of a difference there is between M sport and Air suspension in terms of comfort?
You are just so wrong about the self park function. It can struggle in areas where you tried (with unmarked bays) but overall it’s genuinely impressive
Used to work for a rental company and we put the auto park against each other from the x5 and the Citroen C8 (iirc) the Citroen didn’t know what to do with itself and couldn’t get anywhere near the space even when you made it really simple for the car. The X5 went straight into even quite complex situations. Weird as I would have imagined it’d be the same system sold by Bosch or whatever, maybe it is and the sensors are the problem idk but there’s a night and day difference. Wouldn’t ever use it in real life as I can drive but it was fun to pass the time in work😅
Just to correct you on the rear seat releases - you have handles at the back of the boot as well as those on top of the seats themselves so you don’t need to ‘go round’ to release them to flatten the - Also spec the electric load cover - best thing ever!
There used to be handles in the boot area to lower the rear seats, for some reason they chose to remove them. I was disappointed to discover this as was on my previous X5.
Matt, this is a great video! We also need the X5M Competition!!!
Great car. Only complaint with the LCI is the removal of buttons.
Mat Watson did find the way to do breakdance during car review, TOP!
I think i also noticed it as well.😂
Disagree about making air suspension the default. Its more weight and more to go wrong a few years down the line. Normal springs provide a good enough ride for most people.
Agree 100%✓
Most luxury SUVs these days have air suspension as default.
Although expensive they are easy to fix when they do go wrong it’s a relatively simple system and makes a lot of difference to how the car drives over rough terrain both offroad and in normal U.K. roads whilst maintaining the most control over body roll and turn in. I prefer it on suv for sure, and it makes the allroad models of Audi drive way better than the spring models for example. Think it’s a love hate thing, you’d never have it on a track car obviously but when are you going to track your x5?😅
@@manofsesame3024even also to Cadillac Escalade and Hummer H3 Patriot.
@@AI-Records24they also have 3 year warranty like the 2011 and 2013 Pagani Huayra.
The gas strut in the back has some nostalgic noises for anyone who has had older BMW's. They always sound like your opening some secret alien treasure chest when you pop the boot with those struts lol.
Condensation was smt you also noticed on the merc review the other day. Issue at supplier maybe?
Mat. You missed the 6 cyliner petrol twin turbo with 385 hp as well as the top of the line X5M engine with 625hp
They normally review the m's separately
Come on Matt. What about the rear seat belts getting trapped when you put the seats back up? Is it an issue?
Can you turn the headlights off when the car is on? A friend gets “function unavailable” in theirs.
Looks way better that the GLE
Miles better and better fit and finish that the GLE as well
Also surprisingly better than 1998 Starlet Glanza V.
This and the 3 Series are the only good looking BMW's left.
8 series, 8 series gran coupe and z4 look good too.
Without a doubt. Plus it drives a hell of alot better.
I think it's the best X5 ever. However it is very expensive. My money is 40 times less valuable than your country's money. And I have to pay 220% tax
It's even worse in Egypt 🙁
No you dont pay 220% tax. Thats obviously a lie.
@@wizzyno1566 it's not tax it's customs clearance
@@wizzyno1566 I live in Türkiye. 220% ÖTV Tax is collected for vehicles with an engine volume of 2 liters and above.
@@isimsiz220that’s shiiiiit
I've noticed several times that headlights on this BMW become amber color and start to blink. As a BMW owner myself I have never seen it. Is this a new BMW feature that is available on new BMW s only?
I have another dream car (also a BMW) but this X5 is just amazing for a family or just a daily driver. With all this, value and performance, this car has to be the best car in theo world for this. It also looks soo goood. And they brought back the seven seater! Had an E70 and it had seven seats but it was for people who didn't have legs (ok we fitted some people). This is the iconic BMW of the future!
£93K and the light has condensation in it. Quality 😂😂😂😂😂
So many expensive cars have it now, I don't know why.
Quite common on many cars, on cold days. LED lights often aren’t sealed units, so moist air will enter. The water in this air condenses when the temperature is cooler outside the lamp, than it is inside. Removes itself when it heats up.
modern headlights are not hermetically sealed and dry out over time
All headlights are not hermetically sealed, but LED is more effective that old lamps and don't radiate so much heat that's why these cars some times may have condensation in headlights. Also probably it's a presscar that was washed every time for new user and for filming, so it's not a quality issue
Just like any new vehicle for the last decade which has LED or laser headlights lol
I'll buy this over Mercedes Benz easily Mercedes Benz is UNNECESSARY WAY EXPENSIVE YES WAY TOO EXPENSIVE the facelift version of Mercedes Benz brought a VERY VERY HEFTY PRICE TAG across all their models so no can do not getting a Benz. BMWs are by the way nicer looking cars then Mercedes I dont think any Benz is even worth it's outrageously ridiculous price tag.
Fr and the reliability is down to
Superbbb review. thank you cant wait to get a 2019 -2021
model first
BMW should fix the fog issues with lights! What a emberasing for that brand ... I had same problem with Mini..
In my country if I add in the configurator the extras that I want the cars final price is almost the same for the 50e and 30d engine. Which engine would you recommend?
I don’t know if it’s going to be useful for you after one month but I’ll tell you something. It all comes down to your preferences
rear legroom isn't better than x3 and less than gle?😮
Please review cars with captain seats =) Maybe a comparison from videos already done?
Have the 50e, amazing car, but cockpit dials are all on the slant at an angle on the new dashboard. Once you see it you can’t unsee it and it becomes a frustration for what otherwise is a great car.
8:50 Rover 75 Tourer's floor also used a gas strut
I’ve been waiting for this review for almost a year now. Come on Matt!!🤣🤣
The condensation is natural due do holes in the headlight console. Its there so the headlights can breath. Once they are hot the condenstation is gone.
You'd have thought a professional motoring journalist would know that, but apparently not. It's not the first time it's been mentioned as a supposed "flaw".
I like that colour in the X1…not so much in this
Crazy, my 15 year old old merc doesn’t do this. That BMW must have a design defect 😮
@@rockino2562lol All New vehicles do it. Mercedes including.
@@dundee1080 Well in that case I guess all of them are defective from the beginning
I feel agree with you on your Vedic but my concern is the car would have space if I had more seats on it
Matt, it looks so good. It's a great interior, especially the brown leather 👌 🎉😊
Will you bring the new Cayenne for revieuw?
What is the thing with the condensation in the headlights? Is that normal??!?!
Glad you finally got a decent watch. Nice IWC.
Do a video on the camera car also
6:04 Mat's been to Liverpool... 😀
Apparently the sound of the BMW X5 2024 is like 2013 Pagani Huayra.
the rear wheel drive gasoline is the best trim
Do the x5m competition and x6m competition still exist he didn't mention them with these face-lift versions??
I’ve had an X5 for eight years and it does do everything, it handles quite well for such a big thing and fuel economy is pretty good for a 3ltr diesel, most of all it’s been ridiculously reliable. The 4WD might not be the best available but mine’s an older model.
XDrive IS the best available 4WD system. Check your tires. Everything else you said is right on point
@@alexandereydel No it isn’t, I’m a paraglider that takes the car seriously off road to places most cars wouldn’t dare to go. I’ve seen other cars in our group get up river beds, steep banking etc easier than me and over 8yrs I’ve changed the tyres quite a few times. Remember this is an older model, it’s not the worst but definitely not the best.
Most of the negatives are not X5 LCI but new idrive specific
Why are the sunblind hooks visible when the window opens?
Matt has some moves and the Star Wars bit was class 😂
Lovely car but I’ll be sticking with my 2021 version until they have an off button for safety features and get rid of the shiny black plastics 😊
Whats up with new cars and foggy headlights???
why did you guys change the filming style? it is dizzy now with all those camera movements and it is not even clear as the cam tries to find an autofocus point. why fix what is not broken
Can’t believe you didn't mention the naff illuminated x5 stripes above the glovebox - blocks the passenger window and mirror when driving at night too
Perfect car, great review as always.
I’ve rented a X5 45e for a week recently.
I was pleasantly surprised with the car, to the point I started to look for one to buy. I was shocked with the price, depreciation and cost of ownership…
Also worth mentioning that the charger standard isn’t the most readily available here in the US…
That charger will soon change to the tesla standard, called nacs.
How much range did you get on Electric mode? Is it really 66 miles?
Doesn’t It Come With The B58 Also? You Only Mentioned Turbo Diesel & Hybrid
Because it's new, I wonder if they have upgraded the security? I belive the key can't be read as easily ?
From a design stand point this is good magnefic. From a performance stand point super magnefic. Buy option not shortlist 😂. Matt what do you have on the Huracan STJ ?
I’ve got the same but in grey color and 7 seats,and as days goes by I’m discovering more and more interesting features. In my case there’s no condensation at all 😊. I’ve bought it in Spain thanks to carwow, I’ve got a great discount 👍
Did they costcut the automated Boot Cover? That was an amazing party trick
That water in the headlights... might that be on "purpose" today? Have seen way to many videos here where it was like that with premium brands to think it is just bad production quality all over all brands. Do they maybe not really seal the glas itself but just the LEDs? And probably the water will get out as soon as the car starts going/the LEDs produce some warmth?
Ayer congrats on 9mil
Town driving / real life driving is really nice to see , taking car to ikea or to the shop car park to see how easy it is to live with be really nice
I always loved the look and overall feeling of the X5. Definitely one of my favorites SUV‘s
I’ve got this and your so true about the x5 also don’t forget x7 is good aswell also the new x3 is also great
1) make your backseat space a little bigger and backseats declinable!
2) add new steering wheel like in new 5 series, the current one is 20 years old!
Why is the rearseat in the x5 so small. Ill never understand.
I used to have an x3 I liked it, wasn't the best on fuel though
Why is there a video view of the road ahead in the instrument cluster??
matt i have been watching ur channels for years i think this is the time you change or add to your review some techniques and layout i think u should focus more in engineering prespective of the car more. for example, try to add a segment in your videos about the reliability and toughness.
