I feel like if Charlie has his way, he would forego all the review for the interior and exterior and head straight to the driving. You can tell from his facial expression. That's living life, my friend.
With the news that bmw is discontinuing its 540 series, 2021MY BMW 540 will remain the most dynamic and comfortable driving in the history of 5 series, other than its M line ups. The video really helped me learn about the vehicle. Very detailed and Korean-style review! Appreciated it
I think there is a very simple way you can deactivate the fake engine sound forever. If I'm not mistaken, the sound generator is in the rear left corner of the trunk, behind the amplifier. What you need to do is undo the car's trunk lining in the rear left corner, which isn't that difficult, you only need to remove a few screws and plastic protection pieces. The module you are supposed to disconnect should be in the bottom corner. It is connected to the amplifier with a cable and all you need to do is unplug it. There's a black lever on the plug and a little tab holding it locked. Reach in, push the tab, lift the lever and unplug the connection cable. After that just put everything else back where it belongs and the fake engine sound should be gone.

Awesome review. I'm 95% sure I'm getting a 540i for my next (and, hopefully, last) car. The other 5% is the Mercedes E Class. I would love for you to review a 2021 E Class to see how you compare them. Pretty please? 😉
I too considered an E Class (the E450 and the AMG E53) but I am so glad I chose the 540I Msport. It has the best combination of ride and performance, and has world-beating looks - the E Class just looks stogy.
I like your style. This was an entertaining review. I have the 530e with a remap. Similar HP (388) now and now after 5 years except for the i6 e 45 I don't know what comes close as a complete package for the price. Imagine this thing with a remap but without the taxes in Europe... This car is a great value!
Did you find that the display reflects in the driver window at night to the point of horrible distraction? Major design flaw!!!! Any suggestions to solve for this?
I’ve loved 5 series for years since I was stationed in Germany!! They are great cars!!! I own a 2009 328i sedan, and it is a very fast moving car!! It lacks all the great amenities of the new 5, but I still love it!!!! I wish all Korean cars were like the 5 series!!! Especially the G90 sedans!!

Thinking of getting this or E Class next. What do you all recommend or prefer? I’ve had Mercedes and BMW’s before but always lean more to BMW because of their performance but LOVE the Mercedes interior.
E-class is very nice car. If you want something more elegant get E-class. But if you want better performing car definitely get BMW 5 series. Thanks BBT2K
Well. i think they are comfort seats package? I really didn't look at it carefully. But it felt comfortable. Thank you for enjoying our BMW 540i xDrive review.
Well, John. I just fell in love with this bmw 540i xDrive after driving heck out of it in the snow. But Genesis G80 feels more spacious and luxurious. So, it's a bit different category. Thanks.
Hello Charlie👋! I love Genesis cars and BMW as well & I want to ask who will win if we gonna compare the BMW 5 series 540i with the Genesis G80? You tried & drove them both so I just would like to know which one is better... hot greetings from Algeria 👍👋
Yes, this seems to be the one question i get from this video. Well, this BMW 540i xDrive certainly handles better and sounds better and is faster. But Genesis G80 feels more spacious inside and it just feels more luxurious inside. So, they are just a bit different. Thanks Djamel.
BMW still makes the best engines and the very best inline 6. I only wish they still made a naturally aspirated straight 6. Hyundai/Genesis could learn a thing or two about engines from BMW and even though they make their own transmission, it's not as good as ones that are supplied to the Germans either in performance or fuel efficiency. The BMW twin turbo straight six, is smaller and on paper it has less power and torque than the twin turbo V6 in the Genesis, but it is clearly faster and more fuel efficient than the V6, and it's more balanced and smoother too. You just can't argue about it. The only question mark is reliability, but most BMWs are leased in the US, so most customers don't care about the reliability. Also the Genesis G80 (and the GV80) has become very expensive. When the Hyundai Genesis was first released it started at less than $35k and topped off at less than $50k for a fully loaded V8. 12 years later, the G80 starts around $48k for a 4 cylinder and tops off at almost $68k for the V6 with AWD. The BMW 540i with xDrive starts around $62k. The Genesis G80 with the twin turbo and AWD actually starts at $63k, so now it makes no sense. The Prestige package will add another $5,400 to the G80. Yes, you can add almost $20k in options to the 540i, but remember that a lot of those options are not even available on the G80, like massaging seats, the M Sport Package and the Dynamic Handling Package. Those three things add around $8k. But even if you add those and every other package and option the BMW 540i tops out around $80k in the US, but since it's an old model and not a desirable SUV, dealers are taking off about $7k, so a fully loaded 540i with xDrive is only about $5k more ($73k) than a fully loaded G80. But the 540i will have more equipment and performance features. The 540i will have better performance and fuel economy so after 3 years, the price difference will be even less. They both offer free maintenance for 3 years, but you have to get the G80 serviced at a Hyundai dealer so you get a better service experience with the BMW as well. The G80 wasn't selling well during the last generation, but adding $6-10k to the price isn't going to help them gain market share in a competitive but shrinking market segment...
Well, Genesis G80 has more interior space and more features than this BMW 540i xdrive. But this BMW 540i xdrive certainly has more sweet sounding in-line 6 turbo and handling capability. Thank you anfahrt.
Many years ago the BMW 540I XDrive had a V8 engine under the hood but now it only has an Engine of, 3.0 l 6-cylinder straight engine and Battery: 48 V lithiumion Service weight: 1,735 kg Acceleration: 0-100 km / h: 4.8 seconds.
But it has an Opf thats sad, otherwise the Sound would be on a different Level, i got an 540i g30 m performance with the mppsk from 2018 april, different sound different experience.
I literally just watched about the car on "carwow" there new video was out today although it was a M5 but i dont find much difference in it leaving the engine, and in terms of design and features it was the same..
hi, charlie, i like your video, i saw the back seat is not spacious when you sit in, due to your height, I guess, may I know your height? 6 feet? thank you
@@AsianPetrolhead woo no wonder you need to raise your head rest height....ha thank you for the reply.. i enjoyed my 540i very much, it is not x drive though, I liked it very much and am still learning all the capabilities and limits, am having fun every day
Yes, true. But this BMW 540i xDrive really handles exceptionally and in-line 6 turbo sounds great, too. Thanks for tuning in. And please do support us by subscribing. Thank you.
The G80 isn't that much cheaper. At least not in the US. If you remove the M Sport Package and the Dynamic Handling Package, which aren't even available on the G80, then the 540i with xDrive is only about US $73k. But that's sticker price, and currently BMW dealers are offering the 540i at $2k below invoice pricing, so more like $65k. The Genesis G80 twin turbo with AWD and Prestige Package costs $68k. I mean that's also sticker price, but the G80 is brand new and i don't expect Hyundai dealers to take too much off, so comparatively equipped, the G80 might cost MORE than the 540i. Unbelievable...
@@OlJackBurton I didn't realize a Genesis G80 could push 70k, I thought the G90 was priced like that. Don't get me wrong this 5 series is really nice, i'd just be worried about it outside of warranty. Going to miss the Lexus GS, though.
@@andrewmeehan6151 Hyundai has effectively raised the prices of the G80 by $6k to $10k from the last generation, which is unacceptable IMO. They've essentially killed the biggest advantage they have over the other luxury makes. Other brands don't jack up the price of their models after every redesign despite making profound improvements either in performance or features. But Hyundai already feels that they can charge the same or even more than established Japanese luxury and pseudo luxury brands and challenge the German luxury brands almost straight up. Good luck with that. The Japanese have never been able to do that, and even Lexus, Audi and Cadillac, despite having much more prestige than Hyundai/Genesis can not command prices on the level of MB and BMW. They might be able to get away with it on the GV80 and the GV70 and the upcoming GV90 because SUVS are already quite overpriced relative to the sedans their based on, despite not costing much more to produce. And there is no precedent for potential Genesis buyers to compare the SUV pricing to unlike the Hyundai/Kia SUVs, which haven't seen as large a price jump, despite still being quite expensive. The average new vehicle price in the US has gone up about 20% in 10 years largely because of SUVs and light trucks...
japanwatchconnection good to hear. Won't be worth keeping beyond the warranty tenure. Cost of components only increases as time goes on as they update the 5 series very frequently
I love the 5 series it’s my favourite executive sporty sedan ever made
Yes, george. This BMW 540i xDrive seems to be very nice one out of the new BMW 5 series. thanks.

If you remove the M Sport Package and the Dynamic Handling Package, which aren't even available on the G80, then the 540i with xDrive is only about US $73k. But that's sticker price, and currently BMW dealers are offering the 540i at $2k below invoice pricing, so more like $65k. The Genesis G80 twin turbo with AWD and Prestige Package costs $68k. I mean that's also sticker price, but the G80 is brand new and i don't expect Hyundai dealers to take too much off, so comparatively equipped, the G80 might cost MORE than the 540i. Unbelievable...
@@OlJackBurton I didn't realize a Genesis G80 could push 70k, I thought the G90 was priced like that. Don't get me wrong this 5 series is really nice, i'd just be worried about it outside of warranty. Going to miss the Lexus GS, though.
@@andrewmeehan6151 Hyundai has effectively raised the prices of the G80 by $6k to $10k from the last generation, which is unacceptable IMO. They've essentially killed the biggest advantage they have over the other luxury makes. Other brands don't jack up the price of their models after every redesign despite making profound improvements either in performance or features. But Hyundai already feels that they can charge the same or even more than established Japanese luxury and pseudo luxury brands and challenge the German luxury brands almost straight up. Good luck with that. The Japanese have never been able to do that, and even Lexus, Audi and Cadillac, despite having much more prestige than Hyundai/Genesis can not command prices on the level of MB and BMW.
They might be able to get away with it on the GV80 and the GV70 and the upcoming GV90 because SUVS are already quite overpriced relative to the sedans their based on, despite not costing much more to produce. And there is no precedent for potential Genesis buyers to compare the SUV pricing to unlike the Hyundai/Kia SUVs, which haven't seen as large a price jump, despite still being quite expensive. The average new vehicle price in the US has gone up about 20% in 10 years largely because of SUVs and light trucks...

@@AsianPetrolhead You're Welcome
BMW 4 cylinders are rubbish. But their inline 6s and recently their V8s are phenomenal
are they more reliable...? no more cracked engine blocks...? because this refreshed 5 series looks amazing...
R1S0 they are still god awfully unreliable. Never buy them unless you intend to flush money down the pipe
Yes, this in-line 6 turbo just singles all the way up to the redline. Loved driving this BMW 540i xDrive every bit. Thanks.
japanwatchconnection good to hear. Won't be worth keeping beyond the warranty tenure. Cost of components only increases as time goes on as they update the 5 series very frequently
If the headlights don't have sharks then they shouldn't have laser beams. But that's just my morals I guess.
Well, this BMW 540i xDrive had laser light. Thanks Cee.
Genesis g80 looks better.... but 5 series is a sports car 🚗
Yes, this bmw 540i xDrive really handles nicely. Thanks.
Finally,BMW started giving Android auto and its time.
Yes, it's nice to have Android Auto. Thank you for watching our BMW 540i Xdrive review.
뭐야 자유로였자너ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
네, 파주입니다. ㅋㅋ
Stupid tires! One pothole would blow the tire and bend the rim. I would rather have a Kia K5 GT and $50k in my pocket.
Kia K5 is a lovely car. But the low profile tires are also contributing very sporty driving dynamic of this BMW 540i xDrive. Thanks Roy for tuning in.
