The first ever #BMW SUV was boldly called an SAV back in 2000 when it was introduced as a taller version of the BMW 5-series. Over the years, the #BMWX5 has grown larger and even lost sight of the original mission of being a sports activity vehicle. For 2019, the all-new version of the #X5 is finally here and it finally looks new, drives well, is comfortable and spacious, and has the latest in BMW tech on the inside. Initially available in two flavors, shown here in #X5xDrive40i with a 335 HP #turbocharged straight 6-cylinder engine. It should continue to impress SUV buyers looking for a midsize offering that drives like a sport sedan.
Happy Monday guys! We're still tweaking and perfecting this new style intro. Hopefully you guys saw it in our last upload on the 2019 NSX but we think it turned out great on this new X5 video. Just wanted to make a quick clarification, BMW still does not offer Android Auto in their vehicles so ignore when Sofyan says it has it. Currently, they only have the wireless Apple CarPlay which we demonstrate in the interior portion of the video. Rumors are saying they will add Android Auto soon but we're not sure when. We apologize for that mistake and thank you all so much for watching!
Redline Reviews this now looks like a weak attempt to be like savagegeese. Just keep your content original and stop copying Andie the Lab and SavageGeese styles. Or don’t post live videos of these attempts, don’t you have an internal team to get good at it before you splatter your subs with subpar cinematics? Completely tone deaf
@Ken Shapiro really? what was great about this? why am I cocking my head to look at some of this footage? 626K subscribers and you can't afford to make the content better? Either stop pretending to be Savage Geese or Andie the Lab and just stick to what you know or actually get better. This is what pisses me off about this channel.
Robert Moses oh please, why don’t you go to savagegeese’s channel and yell at him for copying other creators anytime he speaks a full sentence without awkward pausing? His videos are as long as they are because dude can’t talk LOL
Great work.
@@devongee1776 and this 23 minutes of shit audio is better? LOL fanb0i it up
Have you guys ever considered adding nighttime footage to the full reviews? Just to give the perspective of what the vehicles look like at night, especially the head/tail lights etc. and interior lights and those kinds of details... just would be a really nice touch to your already stellar vids.
Agree
Agreeee 100%
Hey that's a good idea, I like that Sofyan within the last year has incorporated his own 0 to 60 times in his videos, like Alex on autos. It's always nice to get a real-world 0 to 60 time👌
The music is getting out of hand. At the very least, turn down the music while you are speaking.
I could hear him 🤷🏿♂️🤷🏿♂️ I thought it was cool
@@ajanimandara9137 most likely he whines a lot.
I've been complaining about this every video. At least it's not a dance track this time but I still can't hear what he's saying if he chooses to speak at the same time as the music is blasting. Does no one watch these videos back before they post them?
@@CalvinHikes right?
It’s like we’re watching some cinematic in the intro LOL
Please stop with the dramatic music 🙄
BMW sponsored
These American built X5s had lousy reliability. I had two of them. All kinds of leaks started right after the basic warranties expire. BMW expects everyone to lease their cars, pay huge amounts of interest on the leases and turn them in after 3 years with no equity. They then CPO
them and make another round of money on them. Interesting business model. Don’t be fooled
By nice interiors. They are of no use when there are expensive maintenance issues.
Maybe some American built "monday cars"... or "lemons", like you say in the USA. But I can tell you, that I have completely different experiences with the X5 here in Germany. The X5 is as reliable as every other premium BMW car. I really don't know what you are talking from. There is only one BMW quality control, which has the same level in every production facility. No matter if it's in Regensburg, Dingolfing, München/Germany, or in Spartanburg/South Carolina.
Reply to SJW Maniac. I appreciate your comments about how well your BMW X5 has worked out for you. My experience with US built X5 spans 10 years of ownership and I am sorry to say I do NOT share your experience and we just agree to disagree. Also, I want to acknowledge the great videos that Redline Reviews has always done for the benefit of the US automotive community.
It's no secret that German built BMWs are more reliable than US built ones.
I have a 2016 X5 MSport Not one problem. Ever. Very reliable.
@@Porsche1969 we found a fan/sheep it is known bmw has problems as soon as warranty expires compares to many other brands.
Have to agree with what others have said. The intro music is over the top and it's distracting to what you're trying to communicate. I always skip the intro music and get to the review. All the camera work is wasted IMO.
This is the new 5 series. Even base engine is a straight six and luxurious and fast. Best midsize luxury entry from a German company.
People overexaggerrate BMW's "unreliability" so much it's horrible. This is crazy...If you're so worried about reliability some much, get a Toyota..
Toyota land cruiser V8 n then make fun of these bmw fanboys when they get broke after paying for the maintenance
South Carolina Dashxam yes BMW suck when it comes to reliability 🤨🤨🤨you stupid to think otherwise
Moe Moe you clearly didn’t understand what he said
@@tahaimran5176 nobody laughs at Toyota owners... but nobody cares either as they are boring.
@@tahaimran5176 land cruiser? The most outdated car in the world? ok
Once again love the narration at the beginning. But once again if you're talking at the same time as the music is playing I really can't hear what you're saying.
Love these BMW suv’s but the reliability kills me! The BMW’s built for us Americans are crap compared to the ones built in Germany. They last so much longer and have very few issues over there. Something we’ve never had.
Garrett Brainis nah I had a 3 series built in Germany and it was shit everything broke apart it doesn’t matter where it’s built
Agreed - just not worth the headache at this price point - even basic maintenance after their plan is ridiculous. However, if you can afford these ya just don't care - it's about the badge and performance.
Edward Brinson I have a friend that had an X3 that was about two years old and it was burning all of its oil as if it was gas. Had to come in every 2,000 miles for new oil because the car would run out. The dealership always gave it to him for free instead of dealing with the issue. It’s almost as if they knew the car was done for but didn’t want to take care of it. It was still under warranty, thank god, but ended up replacing the entire engine at 19,000 miles.
I believe all X5s are built here in South Carolina
It's the same BMW, different drivers and different roads . Germany and Europe roads in generally smoother, and people drive in civilized manner
Why does the music sound like something from transformers
The music in the background while you talk doesn't sound right. Good job for trying something new but it isnt working.
Yeah, it sounds more like a motivational video...
BMW, best technology ever; until your warranty expires, that is.
that should be their slogan. unfortunately, it's a lease on car.
FACTS
Don't keep it after warranty
I bet you never had a new BMW, ohh and what else your mechanic that only workS on Toyota says BMW are not reliable and parts are expensive? Lol
@@romarioslewa9598 Oh I did, so I know exactly what Im talking about
I have to disagree on self-closing doors for $350 being a steal. It's a completely useless feature - everyone can close a car door.
It breaks anyway
Sofyan is probably so rich that it don’t even matter to him
I thought you mentioned the self driving function worked at speeds under 40 mph. But your doing 40+
bmw makes u pay extra for “missing options” because they want money and 5 years later they become endless money pits
Yeah but those will be an amazing 5 years! Then, get a new one.
Still wondering why BMW would charger for Apple Car Play... WHY THO!??!?
like apple. so many suckers. just reading the comments. every bmw video comments you see you would think they want to make out with the car
The amount of times he said “ this is missing an option package” just tells you BMW is a rip-off
True
nowadays I find bmw is like apple. its really still surviving due to status. just look at the ppl who buy them
This car is not expensive. Relax.
why are there so many german car haters? They are way better than Japanese and American cars
the overstyling of BMW bumpers is out of control, this car looks awkward but the new X7 is just hideous. Style is subjective but with cheapness of their latest models some heads should roll over at BMW’s design department. Mercedes benz, Alfa Romeo and Volvo are now all producing much more stylish SUVs and BMW look strange or aftermarket by comparison
It’s still a bmw to me which says enough I’ll never buy a bmw horrible cars very unreliable
BMW needs another complete styling overhaul.
@@gsjourney3054 BMW are great cars if you buy them new
My advice to you is to let the music play and show off the vehicle before before you speak.
X5 came a long way. Still see many 1st generations on the road. They used to be slow gas guzzlers now they're the opposite.
I'm very impressed by the new generation of BMW cars and SUVs
Their interiors are finally matching their price tags. And watch out for the 2020 M3!
Meanwhile, Mercedes newest stuff, just went to see the GL350......not impressing me.
Looks like BMW has "it" right now.
Bruh have you seen the new s class and the e class even the glc has such a nice interior and the MBUX system is fantastic...
I like both BMW and Mercedes Benz
It's the same boring layout
Bob Bowie
It’s a personal preference and I respect that
Interior wise Merc over BMW
@@bluearmy7690 The MBUX interior over the BMW. The Comand system was o-kay during it's day, but Volvo pretty much won that battle. I would say the only real competition would be the Audi interiors, but it's all digital so there's a learning curve there.
@12:45 Once the X7 was released, BMW discontinued the 3rd row option on the X5. If you want a 3rd row, you’ll have to find a X5 that was built before 3/1/19.
Also @13:26 that’s not a “rear seat entertainment prep package” (Audi Q7 offers that), instead it’s where you can attach things like an iPAD, laptop, or even hang up a coat.
AJ Lee yup
I don’t know what you’re talking about. I just got my 2019 X5 with 3rd row delivered this week as of Aug. 15th. I have no problem getting the 3rd row with all the extras that I wanted. As a side note for those who don’t know, if you get the 3rd row, the second row will be equipped with motorized reclining and sliding function. Also the 2nd row can be automatically fold down or retracted with a push button on the seat itself and inside the trunk. Hope this help you decide.
Peter T, that’s because your X5 was built before 3-1-19. Take a look at the sticker when you open your drivers door. It’ll give you the date there.
AJ Lee I hate to say this to you but mine was ordered late June. It was put into production mid July and I received it Aug. 15th. The sticker on the car said 07/19 I guess that’s what you’re referring to. 😬
Peter T, once again. The X5 is no longer available with a 3rd row. I work for BMW. You cant configure a 3rd row anymore. Trying building one on the BMWs website. It’s not an option.
Way toooo much sun and smudge reflecting plastic on dash.
BMW = Break My Wallet
they’re still better than any Japanese or American luxury brand
Most of time Sofyan test out the infotainment, my favorite part is the radio, its always a edm track current playing. Nicely done as usual
Gpp re lavdy
$72,000. No wonder there are record car loan defaults right now. Between the BMW ya gotta have and your student loans....well there is nothing left.... is there.
LOL
Depends on your Income but yeah cars are pricey.
Proud owner of a 2012 Camry le
Believe it or not, there are people who can afford this without an issue.
2007 Ford Fusion here since new, I’m gonna ride it til the wheels fall off. Otherwise, I enjoy looking at these fancy cars 😍
I am not buying that shit 72000, unless it have more tech other cars don't have
Long live the X5
Lol this actually gets better gas mileage than most 3 row passenger SUVs and it’s turbocharged with over 300hp
It also has the same towing capacity of the X7 in a slightly smaller package.
I really enjoying watching your reviews Sofyan! You go into great details and give very honest opinions. I don’t always agree with them, however each of us have our own thoughts. I know you review all these great new vehicles that come out, from low end to high end models. The high prices they are asking for these newest editions with all the added features is unreal, but everything goes up. What I’m really interested in is the actual value ( depreciation ) of these vehicles after 3-4 years. And cost of repairs etc. Have you given any thought to doing periodic reviews of some of the vehicles after 5 years ownership, to really give consumers an idea of just how badly they depreciated and their high repair bills? Just a thought! Keep up the great work Sofyan!
I totally agree, he has always given his subjective opinion, and it's just that an opinion. Just because you don't agree with him you don't have to write a mean comment saying that he's a crappy reviewer, it's actually very respectful that he goes against the grain sometimes he's come a long way👌
hello Redline. you mentioned in your review that this has got android auto. Is it really true given that I 'hear' BMW discontinued android car play support?
Intro music with the voice over is too loud, thank you!
Subscription for Carplay?
When lessor brands give it away?
What an insult! I don't even care for Apple products but that's offensive.
I fell asleep... not because it was boring lol. Seriously though, out of all the reviewers I listen to, if I only could listen to one, it would be you. Keep it up.
Dude, the first X5 was not a lifted 5 series sedan, not ever the 5 series wagon.
Take a tequila shot every time he says "option"
Don’t like the new intro....there’s too much going on....voice....epic music (poorly mixed with dubstep)...and weird reveal shots....it isn’t good. Not trying to shit on it...but this is not a good attempt at a new style. Ditch the monologue, let the music speak to the audience...and get your self some sliders.....the camera work doesn’t meet the standards that kind of music deserves
I really wish the German brands would use the Amber turn signals in the rear. All that red bugs me.
Just remember, don't buy any X5 and hold it past the warranty period. Starting at 60k miles, these things becomes a congo line of repair after repair. BMW doesn't take care of it's customers the way they used to, so if you do buy, just know you're going to be on your own and will absolutely need to find an independent mechanic unless you are an awfully good wrencher.
Half the shit in those cars you can't even fix yourself or with just any mechanic. They have so many things locked down with software that you have no choice but to bring it into the dealer.
2019 x5 comes with Apple CarPlay on every trim, and can access it as long as subscription paid, am I understanding right ?
Jason Li yes. $80 a year
Incorrect. It is now free. Just bought BMW x5 last week. Android auto upgrade coming in July as well and it will be a wireless connection.
@@talhaahmed1953 damn, that's awesome !
You are misinforming people. The car does offer a rear well drive option as x5 s40i
Nice car to flex and feel like that you're european...but you now the drill "endless money pit".
PS: Soyfan you should put your staff working to find a nice sponsors to bring you to Europe so you can review more cars that we have here or even in some Asian countries,cause cars in US are becoming sooooooo.......feel like you guys only have 2 options now (SUV's and Trucks)
xudyline Right? Carwow is always reviewing hatches, coupes, sedans, SUVs, convertibles, sport sedans, extreme luxury cars, meanwhile in America... SUV, SUV, SUV, SUV, SUV lmao
@@LaSombraa exactly even tho i don't watch that much their channel.
In my opinion i think they need to boost their brand higher, make some phone calls to europeans motor companies(Seat/Peugeot etc etc),because is not just US folks that watch this channel.
Man... X3 is equipped with reclining seats, but is a cheaper vehicle.. x7 is a huge vehicle but obviously most people won't need it... Why did they leave the reclining seats out..? I have zero understanding..
They quarter and full dollar you for features. Couldn't go with nickel and dime you being a BMW. Cooled and heated seats should be at the base price for all their vehicles. You can keep your drink cool though. Nice of them. Nevermind the Apple Carplay charge. Nice work Apple and BMW. Both must need the extra money. 😕
Piano black all over that interior. You’ll need to have a microfiber cloth in the center console at all time to wipe it down every 3 minutes. Mazda’s interior isn’t too far off BMWs. Once again BMW fails to make an interior that is compatible with its price range.
As soon as you said they charge for apple car play I can immediately scratch this car off the list
I recently requested a mid-size sedan from a rental agency. They were out, but they gave me a nice upgrade for the same price: a BMW X7 i40! It was awesome! It’s now making me wonder how I might afford one. I would probably opt for this X5 for the modest boost in mileage and slightly better feel, since I would be the lone occupant 90% of the time, while retaining the towing capacity of the X7.
People are complaining about BMW unreliability. If you want a sports SUV, your only option is either the Audi Q7 or the BMW X5
I like how you exaggerate the initial launch. It's a car not space rocket.
This Music THO?! Dayum!
That music during the intro was a bit much. Love the review itself though!
Sweet ride and now that BMW is not charging for Apple carplay anymore makes it sweeter.
The good thing about the apple carplay they going to start giving it for free instead of charging you soon. I think it started or next year. 🤔
Excellent Review Of 2019 BMW X5. 😁
If you have Apple one, you don’t have to pay anything for Apple CarPlay. With Apple one you get CarPlay, Apple Music, News, plus Apple TV, etc. It certainly wouldn’t be $100 a month if you subscribed just for Apple CarPlay.
It’s still a jacked up 5 series hence the reason BMW calls it an SAV and not an SUV. It’s a 5 series wagon but Americans won’t buy it if you call it a station wagon so they call it an SAV because Americans will never figure it out lol.
Does anyone else have a feeling that these cars use tactics to hide how cheap they are?
You know when Sofyan laughs as he accelerates it’s a great engine lol
Car play, wow BMW gets away with anything they want lol. Japanese luxury for me even though its second class....
BBB T Lol Lexus doesn’t offer Either CarPlay or Android Auto on the cars
f181234 they will soon I rather relatability than Tech once I have Bluetooth I am fine
@@f181234 their latest vehicles offer CarPlay. The new RX has both
Lease. Never buy.
Nice review Sofian as always.
the steering is tight. its because that x5 u drove have 20 inch wheels and tires are poop. I got 21 inch wheels and P zero summer tires makes it stiffer cus they are bigger and wider
Tone down the music at the beginning please. Feels like I'm inside the mummy ride at universal
After 50k miles you get rid of these FAST. Endless $ pits !!
scotty kilmer fan. This is the best midsized suv you can buy. Reliability doesn't matter on new cars
It’s still a bmw which isn’t saying much
What are you driving?
Exactly I hateBMW
Darkivaz - AAA VERY i was there today. Everything is hard touch plastic in every car. Eww
10:00 Did the reviewer say BMW is charging $100 a month for Carplay?
Hey guys! Which one would you choose? This X5 or the 540i?
Wait if you can get 3 rows in the x5 why would anybody buy the 7? For more features that are really just gimmicks?
The X7 is much bigger, you idiot. If you want to carry kids only, the X5 is fine. If you want to carry adults and have the captain seats and many other features, the X7 is good. But aren't you too poor to even get any of those, let alone a wheel?
The backseat is my Only negative it looks small. But I still want this car lol
You are so kind when reviewing the second row space, new GLE offers much more leg room space than X5, and RX can move and recline the second row seat.....the new X5 should do better job！
The vacuum style exhaust is a big turn off, worst they are fake.
everything is an option
The new MB GLE makes this beautiful X5 look like a bargain.
The new GLE also makes this X5 look like a car from a class below
chrisak49 I think that it is a matter of taste - it’s subjective. But price comparison is a matter of fact - it’s objective. I like them both really, but the X5 is a bargain.
@@golfbuddy1969 Not really a bargain. BMW stopped doing good lease programs. A majority of people will lease BMWs and BMW has increased the interest rates to the point where its no longer a good deal.
chrisak49 yes I gotcha...I’m not really looking from a lease perspective at all. So much of that is manipulated with promotions, packages, residuals and rates.
Subjective. 🙄
I am loving these new voiceover intros!
I like that New BMW X5👍👍
Hey , who doesnt ?
I love your videos but the intros are too long and loud, trim em down.
Right? And they need to find better music for B Roll shots and use a better aspect ratio, I’m not watching a movie smh
Too expensive for me. Will buy a used one in two years.
You are smart, that's how I buy all of my vehicles now.
Buy a used something else though
haha.. make sure you have enough saved up for all the maintenance cost it will require at that time.
Don't own one out of warranty.
Jay G. Ok
Would definitely pick a range rover over this.
Is it smoother and quieter than the Lexus?
can everyone stop complaining about it?
ThE ApPle CaR pLaY iS eXpenSivE
So UnRelIaBle
This car is meant for the people who buy it new. It means the owners will cater it problems and they will probably have enough money for it problems. This car was never meant for the second hand buyers who buy it at 40k miles + since the first owners would be families with kids who would break the things and mess up the car. Luxury and power can't be in the same sentence with reliability since the base car offers 340 HP , so can everyone stop bitching about this and actually be happy for once of a car from a german brand. I am pretty sure anyone will have enough money for apple car play if they can buy this car. So people who can't afford the car new shouldn't bitch about it unless they have the car or can buy it, end of discussion. Anyways if anyone wants to buy a cheapest 40i and cheapest 50i

Seems like almost everything in this vehicle is optional, crazy.
Just imagine you didn't buy any. Crazy!
Yea, without those options you'll end up with the equivalent of a Ford or Chevy, come on BMW throw us a bone.
lahzx10 Yes, nothing inside!
BMW charging for Apple Carplay is just another way for them to nickel and dime the buyers. Sadly, this is very difficult for the consumer to avoid when the dealers order the cars with Carplay. This limits the buyers options unless they don't mind custom ordering their bmw without carplay and ultimately waiting for their car to be built and shipped. Either way, the buyer will pay in cost or time. Dam you BMW for doing this.
I’m kind of disappointed. The x5 is just a small repeat of the x7. This is how cars are supposed to be, but people want something different. That interior with its materials is going to get dirty on seconds.
Very nice review! I gain a lot knowledge about this SUV. Only, question,…. What does a New Jersey license plates in Seattle, WA?
Previous generation looks so much more aggressive
$73k for this and it doesn’t have ventilated or massaging seats - not to mention you have to pay monthly for Apple CarPlay??? Better options for sure to choose from.
I wonder what would happen if BMW redesigned their seats with Adidas Boost technology for cushion and added a plush ribbed “pillow-like” front half of their head-rest.
Is there any one guess why bmw don't want to make middle seat reclining seat back??? I regreted about this feature with this expensive sucker not recline
Wait, Sport Activity Vehicle? Does this mean the Santa Cruz SAV was created by the same team that says they created the segment? Most be.
bruh apple car play is like $70 a year
Everyone else has it free...
$80/yr for CarPlay
Apple owners and BMW owners coming together to spend random money on products others offer for free. BMW knows its market.
@@CalvinHikes it's crazy as fuck
The b roll is a little cheesy
jhorne4 A little.....??????
If you want one vehicle that does everything well, luxury, performance, family car, tech, this is a fine choice.
Enjoy your $1,000 a month car payment.
@@RLTtizME Better than two or three payments, getting multiple cars to do what one can.
You get what you pay for in this life.
@@RLTtizME u can lease these for under $600 a month with about 2k down. $1000 a month can get u a x7.

When is Redline Review dropping their Mazda 3 review?
It'll probably be posted next week or so. We had some other videos that we filmed from over a month ago that needed to go up first :)
did I hear it correct? 9:35 Android auto? i thought BMW doesn't support android auto...unless i'm not informed yet.....
Honestly your BMW X5 will feel like a KIA if you choose that inline 6 for a power plant
since BMW is charging for Apple Carplay, im not going to go get it, Volvo 60 is a better option for me....
