Apparently it now has the S68 and not the older S63! Apologies about that, I should have researched that better!!! Thanks for those who have pointed out my misinformation 👊🏽
I thought that was just a rumour from a forum and that only 60e models currently use the S68
@@carmadnabohh 😂 I will ask BMW M next week and get the correct info. It did sound slightly different compared to the pre LCI...
Per the BMW press release, it is indeed the S68
The S68 is the only V8 BMW makes any more.
Also my LCI has the electric parcel shelf
The most beautiful suv I have ever seen . I want one so much
Im a simple man, I see a new Joe Achilles video, I like it and then I enjoy it
Thank you 🙏🏽
Compared to so many other car reviewers on TH-cam, your commentary and dialog is always interesting and unique! Keep up the great work...
I appreciate that!
One of the few new BMW's that doesn't have a weird looking exterior 👌
You lost me at 128 before extras😂😂😂
Outrageous pricing.
Mine was 120k loaded
I was so used to your daily videos in Australia that now it feels like ages between videos now. Joe, I like your work a lot. Keep it up.
Haha, unfortunately couldn't keep that up 🫣 Appreciate the support 👊🏽👊🏽
The circular headlights on the previous one look so much better.
I have an x6m for 4 years now (100k km) and it's incredible.
People who haven't driven cars like this think you lose performance when you go for an suv that isn't even very capable off road.
But in reality you still get more performance than you'll ever need, and the extra added clearance and practicality make a gigantic difference for feeling comfortable on all road surfaces. You bascially get an m5 than doesnt have any drawbacks of a lowered sedan. The x5m imo is even better, that for me is as perfect at is gets in a car.
I think people want everything of something. For me it's handling and speed. If I want comfort I get a x5 30d, sporty things g80, m5 cs, m2cs, that area.
I've come to a realization a long time ago that a good car is one where you don't wish it was better in some way.
I've driven a few cars and in all of the sedans I wished they were slightly higher. Not a g wagon high but slightly. When I drove cars like the g wagon I wished they handled better. Not like a porsche gt3 but just better.
When I drive my x6m I don't wish it could handle better or be faster or be better off road. It just comfortably handles all the situations that I put it in. Whether it's throwing it around some canyon road or driving around a construction site. Never any issue.
I just think people miss the point when they say "the m5 handles better and the g class is better off road so the x6 is pointless". The point is you compromise a huge chunk of practicality and comfort in the m5 to be 5% faster. And you comprosme a huge chunk of handling and speed in the g class to be a little be better off road. (When most people don't drive these cars in forests anyway). The x5m doesn't compromise anything it gets the best of both worlds.
i used to have X5m G05 and new X5m is a peace of shit! It is slower then G05 X5m.
How much slower?@@rootready
@zhar9393 I love the x6 series and the X6M look great. I have an e70 x5 40d which is more than enough performance, comfort and economy and I love it, couldn't ask for anything more even though its not cheap to maintain. Would love an M car but couldn't justify the maintainence and servicing costs, maybe a 50d msport x6 could be my next car if i can find a nice one, then the misses can drive the x5.
Looks better. Now, that is surprise nowdays😂
this beast looks actually amazing!
Another great review. Keep up the good work Joe.
Thank you for this review! Beautiful car
21:04 "..I think we're really going to miss this internal combustion only set up, when the next generation comes in, which will almost definitely be a hybrid set up..."! Amen, Joe. Loving the content as always. 👍
Great point!
ICE will always be around.
Car manufacturers are running back to normality because they've been sold a pup regarding ev BS.
Great video like always !! Thanks
Great video Joe 👏
This frozen black looks mega
Been waiting on this one. Thank you!
Hope you like it!
Always great content, Joe. The more and more I think about it - this is probably my favorite SUV on the planet (along with the Durango Hellcat and Escalade V) haha!
Great video Joe 🤙🏻
I love my X5M Comp the more I drive it, especially now it’s passed the breaking in stage 😂🏎
Am into the very standard looking wheels and a great vid Joe as always 👍
unique explained , bravo both
Great video Joe and a great car…. I would buy one.
Awesome review as always Joe!! Can’t wait to get mine delivered that I’ve ordered a few weeks ago.
Hope you enjoy it!
I love the new X5. You mentioned that one advantage of the XM is that is a full hybrid; so to me the perfect model exists and it’s the X5 50e, which has 500hp and a quite a high autonomy in full electric! (Real autonomy or around 80km)
Great video!
Hybrids are dumb.
Either fossil or full electric.
@@hexagonosaurus5848 That in fact is a dumb statement. In my particular case the X5 50e suits my needs perfectly. Firstly solar panels on the roof of my house supply the car from March to September with "fuel" for free! Secondly the car acts as an additional battery for our System so we can use 25 kw/h on top of our 13 kw/h battery system. That statement is just wrong - I still run the car with a 3l inline 6 325 hp engine in case we're going on a longer journey.
The 50e and M60i are great cars and can do so much. But in reality the driving experience and even seat feel is very different than the full M version. Went from an F85 to the LCI and driven bunch of other X5 in between and it’s a very different experience. I do like the daily convenience of the hybrid but I enjoy the 2 mile trip to drop the kids to school with a nice rumble much more
Nice video with excellent commentary/content. @3:35: the parcel shelf hasn't been removed, it comes with an extra package (at least for the German market).
Thanks for the info!
Waited for this long time 🎉
Excellent video
Excellent video Joe! I have a 2018 X5M Competition and I love it! This is one of BMW's best vehicles...EVER. I have a 14 Alpina as well, and I literally stand in my garage and make emotional decisions as to which one to drive! 😂
Now this is THE Car
Very nice Mpower💪
Great video Joe. I love my X3 M40i LCI that does everything I want in a car. I can only imagine what a beast an X5M is to drive.
Thank you! Arguably your package is even better, especially when you look at their prices! But yeah, this is an absolute rocketship 🚀
@SB all you want in a car, with the exception of being a driver's car. 😉
effin SUVs, we should over-taxate and, at the same time, ban them from our cities. 99.99% never see an effin piece of dirt under the wheels in their lives.. but, yeah, everything you want.. in a car, that you probably drive alone in it 90% of the time. Ppl like you should have their driver's license removed. Knob!
Are you talking about the 2020 facelift on X3? Otherwise X3 doesn’t have an LCI yet. There will be a new gen of X3 coming later 2024 as 2025 model tho
@@manofsesame3024I have a 22 X3 which is an LCI
you deserve a TV show and sponsors
Great video thanks for sharing 👍.
Thanks for watching!
My favourite car reviewer
One of my good friend has one and I had a chance to drive it a few times and its mental!
I think I much prefer the pre refresh gauge and center console. At least that looked like it was built and designed for it, instead of these afterthought tacked on screens on all current ones.
It will suit you perfect, Joe!
Massive beast and beautiful ❤️ it
Frozen black is the BEST color BMW offers by a mile. This thing looks so fn good 🔥 the interior is insane aswell
Agree, it looks stunning!
Isle of Man Green is superior
Toooooop Choice 🤙⭐️
I'm glad they're still making them with a gear selector knob. I know a lot of newer cars have a small button or have just completely removed it but I like that the X5 still has it.
Love to see your take on the m60i Joe
That’s mega. That’s the new front runner for the inheritance money when I get it lol
Thanks for another enjoyable video. I know you have driven the new 7 Series, but it would be nice to see what you think of the hybrid version as in the UK we can't get a pure petrol/diesel engined car.
You are a brilliant presenter Joe... 🎉
Thank you!
This is insane. Used to work for BMW and saw this one in frost-gray with black on black fully loaded. Unreal.
Great review, bless Lou! Haha what a car, just a great all rounder
Haha thanks bro! Lou was amazing, it was a long couple hours for her, my stress levels (due to weather) wouldn't have been much fun 🫣
@@JoeAchilles1 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻
Hi Joe, I’m a fan of yours. I think you offer a real and clear and concise verdict and judgement on the cars you review…. no bullshit or hype so well done. As a former X5 owner and a Lotto-wishing X5M or Alpina B7 buyer, in relation to the XM what would you think of a “Goldilocks” X7M if there was such a thing for getting the family and stuff to the Snow or to the racetrack with the Superbike in the trailer behind …. Discuss . Also glad you liked our Victorian Racer roads recently 😆…Cheers
I love this car. My cousin has the X5M Comp pre facelift; its wonderful. I am personally a Mercedes fan, I have a c63 and GLE but i love BMW and Audi. But Mercedes for me is what i go for, this is not worse. I love your videos Joe by the way. Been watching a LONG time. Cheers!
The thing Mercedes going with 4 cylinder amgs make it worse than audi and bmw nowdays
The pre LCI still looks amazing. Those BMW signature lights will forever catch my attention ❤
I saw a 24 X5 LCI for the first time today and the rear indicators caught my eye from a few cars ahead. The rear indicators fade on and off. I’m so glad they don’t scroll (hate the scrolling indicators now as every car is getting them) Mazda have had single bulb looking led indicators that fade on and off for a couple of years now it is something a little different.
Nice beard and brilliant content, as usual!!
🤣👌🏽
Thanks
Thank you 🙏🏽👊🏽❤️
Excellent video Joe!! It’s sad.. that BMW using these screens hanging off dash… 😢
Nice colour👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Stealth🔥
@@JoeAchilles1 ... Like my high IQ😋👍🏻
Hey Joe, does the new X5 have the ability to drop the height when it is parked, we have a 2022 X5 M30d and wife has issues getting in and our, seems crazy that Landrover and the likes of Volvo have the facility but I can't it on our 2022 model. Like you I do love those seats although better in Orange, keep up the great content 👍
My white ‘19 X3 xDrive has the Pilot Alpin 5 ZP Michelin winter tires on for the past 3 winter seasons.
Just love the confidence these Michelins offer.
Fantastic aren't they, I have just received some for my Touring too 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
@@JoeAchilles1, totally, there’s nothing not to love about these (or any!) Michelins!
(Although for my black ‘11 TTS I went with the factory recommended Continental ExtremeContacts when I replaced them in the spring of ‘22.)
Alpins are great but I think x-ice do even better overall. Alpines are more performance oriented over snow. Still great.
I just bought some for my GLE on sale buy 3 get 4th for $1. Storing them for next winter.
I like the x6 rear end more. Looks more futurstic like a spaceship. Idk about the newer model refreshs but the x6m use to be slightly faster aswell then the x5m
Of all the big performance SUVs from all other big German hitters, on looks alone none of them even come close to this - if I had the cash I’d buy one exactly like that in a heart beat 😍😍
Now that’s more BMW I can get on board with compared to whatever the hell else they are offering. How cheesed off would you be if a stone took out one of those rads 😳😳 top video Joe as always
Brownie points in the bag with Lou mate 😂 happy wife, happy life
This will be a classic one day, last of the proper v8 wagons
Great video Joe, question for you, the BMW X5M or the Cayenne Turbo E Hybrid with GT package? Which has the edge ?
I’d like to know the same! I have the x5M but am about to place the order on the Porsche!
Does the interior spec have an option for non honeycomb finish on the leather?
Another pro level review Joe, great stuff! I do wish BMW and others would drop the horrible, gawdy piano black plastic, it looks so cheap and is a real pain to live with! Impressive car none the less!
I'm interested to know how they enforce the winter tire law? Are there random tire inspections?
I want this
Always looking forward to your vids Joe (big fan from the beginning) top notch reviews everytime 👌 I really wish BMW could stop forcing us to drive auto transmissions ,,, as a proper manual enthusiasts i cannot consider any of these new SUVs and EV simply because of that auto gearbox,,, for some of us, before anything else, we want that 3rd pedal and 6 gear stick ,,no negotiations. I dont know who at BMW decided that we will not produce manual in many of these segments even the M3 in UK😤 why? Its ridiculous to be honest
So Joe. X5M or M3T as your best daily?
So Joe, would you take this over the M3 Touring?
It losing the mechanically retracting and disappearing parcel shelf is such a shame. Hate it when cars take a step backwards when they get update. Also for my taste, the new front is overly aggressive, think pre-LCI was a bit more tasteful.
Great review as always Joe. I completely agree, the XM still doesn't make sense to me. I've test driven one, albeit for less than an hour, and it just didn't feel great. I have an X7 M60i and honestly I preferred how it drives. If I didn't have kids, I'd have bought the X5M all day, but it's great to see that BMW are still offering these high performance vehicles when so many manufacturers seem to be pushing 4 Cylinder engines or EV's.
To be honest,the XM is the BMW no one asked for..too big,too heavy,too expensive,powerful but because of the weight,its slower than the X5M,so why get it?! Great hob with the X7 though.. what a car that must be😭😭
Totally agree
Who is pushing the four cylinders, really? Are you mentioning the new C 63 AMG? That is a D segment car, and this one is an E segment car, a direct competitor to the GLE 63 AMG. So, even Mercedes is still offering a V8. Actually, you know what, all of the manufacturers are still offering V8s in this segment. So, no one has switched to four cylinders. That is false. The truth is, though, you're looking at one of the cars at this price category and segment, this particular one is the only one without air suspension. So, we can easily say they cheaped out on building a sporty air suspension for F95/F96, which was one of the things they should have taken from Bimmerpost forums. Everyone, literally, said this car lacked the comfort it should have from the beginning, plus the weird tyre/wheel sizings (ETs and geometry). I'd definitely get an X5M if it had a proper air suspension, carbon ceramics as an option, a better steering feel, and quicker transmission.
I have this and a F90 Comp. Its good but it feels like an SUV after driving the M5 but it's an amazing truck. I had the F85 before this and the E70 X5M before that so I think ill always have one.
Joe - Do you have a video content of the new X3 M Competition?
Blimmey a new BMW that looks nice, makes a change.
Joe brother it has the S68 engine which is refreshed s63 I guess was made just to pass emissions cause it has the same HP and torque
Yes found that out tonight 🫣 My bad 👊🏽
Nice car, only thing I would opt for is slight larger alloy, plus not a fan of leather seats
I just brought an X6M, the problem is not ride quality, its tire noise.....on the highway its SOOO loud...apart from that, its so fun to drive, its like an M4 only louder.
So Joe, this X5 or a RSQ8??
Two of the best cars I ever owned were a 2018 M5 Comp and a 2016 X5 40d. The X5M comp is pinnacle. Who wants or needs a Range Rover dubious build quality. This is the only way to go…
Joe, love the vids. But can you explain the jargon a bit more for those of us (maybe it’s just me! 😅) who don’t know what things like ‘LTI’ stand for?? Thanks! 😬
Sure, LCI stands for LIfe Cycle Impulse, BMW's term for facelift basically 👌🏽
Very good

원합니다 ❤
My girlfriend ordered the X5 50e, arriving this month I hope. I drive the M2 F87 LCI. Curious how the 50e drives compared to the M2😉
Your two-tone beard looks sportier too😊
Thanks Jo for confirmingwhat i already new.
It is a legal requirement to fit winter tyre in countries that get a lot of snow.
So many people banging on about Audi's Quattro system being the best thing ever. Yes they are good but if you put summer tyres on any four wheel drive car including the Quattro system in snow, it'll go nowhere!
Sorry for ranting, just drives me nuts
What do you honestly think of the gigantic screens inside?
Great car, but will stick with my wonderful everyday brilliant X3 M40d - car for all occasions
Good choice!
Are you not mistaken with the engine code? Is it not an S68 not S63?
Ohh now you have me worried.... You could be right as I stupidly assumed it was still the S63 🫣
I also know that is S68, because this one is mild hybrid 🫣
0:45 I love the overall LCI improvement. The only thing I don't like is that there is basically no difference between the ///M car and the M Sport (FRONT). I think they should have made the front more aggressive, screaming, 'Look at me, I am an ///M car.'
Тачка, цвет-огонь❤❤❤❤❤❤❤!!!!
still waiting for mine
I drive the ore LCI model and it’s simply amazing, drive it sensibly on the motorway and you will get 28mpg. However the down side is crabbing in cold weather it’s so bad I’m considering selling the car.
I wonder if the BMW X5M competition is also available in Qatar? I love this latest 2024 Edition. I want one as well if given a chance to own it.
Another great video Joe. How does this compare to the RSQ8 ?
It doesnt
? @@hexagonosaurus5848
Analogue v digital guages. My Jaguar XF has both for the speed. I find I never look at the analogue speedo. It is completely redundant for me. Driving in France, the ability to switch to km/hr is fantastically useful. The speed camera recognises the speed limit signs and I don't have to try to read the small km/hr on the analogue speedo.
Revs , on the other hand, I prefer the analogue dial as I can see the red line and get a better feel for where I am in the range.
As for climate control dials or screen - once set, how often do you need to change anything? Not an issue for me.
Honestly i feel like the exterirror on the pre lci looks nicer but the interrrior is nicer on the lci
I really haven't liked the designs of the majority of the more recent BMWs - in fact as a fan boy I've actually felt a bit broken hearted by their designs. I'm also not an SUV fan. All of that said - this is a really good looking car. I think they've really achieved tasteful aggression wonderfully. It's really well balanced. To all those people saying "people always hate new BMWs and grow to love them" - we don't all do that - the majority of BMW cars are gorgeous!
I agree with you - the new grills on many are awful. This car is great looking IMO.
Very cool. Love that car. Also the front angle is stunning. Great colour too. Couldn’t pay me to have an XM - awful looking vehicle. Nice video Joe.
18:21, 21 MPG? Really? How did you manage that? I think mine parks at 14 MPG...
Great vid as always Joe.
Word of caution: I was going to buy and X5 for the family car. The insurance was higher than for my M5, and that was for a non-M version. Bonkers. Probably going to go electric company car now, maybe A6 etron when it finally arrives. Or Lotus Eletre if I can convince the missus 😂
What country? I think it is dependent to where you live most likely
@@TK-lr8tz UK. At least it’s not a Range Rover - people are being quoted literally £10k’s to insure one in London.
