I love everything with the new BMW X5, I would never hesitate to buy the one you test drive in the video I love it already.
Hi Thomas! Another excellent review - thanks. I’ve had 2 X5s in the past and really loved them. Hybrid is definitely a must for my next car.
This X5 PHEV is the best X5 on offer from BMW - practical and economical and a great driving experience
Thanks Thomas. Your thorough review was pivotal in our decision to order a fully loaded 2022 X5 45e last month. It should arrive in a few weeks. Thanks again!
I have the predecessor X5 F15 and already ordered this new G05. Main reason for loving this power train is the majestical drive in the city with eDrive. Not only very silent but also very responsive. I actually come to see the combustion engine as the helper for the electric motor for higher speeds. All in all a very sophisticated car. - Thanks for your videos!
Excellent review. The hybrid system works very well with the 6 cylinder engine, without strain, offering seamless power delivery motoring.

Autogefühl then I can ask without the risk of a biased answer, this or the GLEde ?
Great overview! always grateful for another video, God bless!
Excellent review 👏🏼👏🏼 love the jacket 😁
Great review as always.
Thanks for this review. Waiting till January !
Thank you, you did a great job on this in-depth review. I really like this new X5 with electric range. I can't wait to test drive it.
thanks keep tuning in =)
Another informative and very good review Thomas!
Sound quality video quality it is mind blowing..... Thank you so much for this stunning video content
Thanks! Please recommend =)
Thank you Thomas for the review! This car becomes interesting for US city markets because the large battery. In theory a short commute to work can be done in full electric. Charge at home morning then at work during day and you could be using only electric. Plus having the V6 decreases the range anxiety for the long US type road trips a lot of people do for holidays.
I love this new X5 , The new design is beautiful , also to drive is quite a special feeling too . I think with the larger battery might just do it justice Thomas .
for a hybird, I think the battery size makes sense. ~40miles of range is enough for most city trips if you want to go all electric. More adds additional weight and cost
"Some things tend to get a little bit longer when they're hot" 👀
Car reviews just got sexier 😄
😂
Hehehe! The ambiguity even!
I caught that!! LOL
Thomas!!! lol (I saw that smirk on you face just before you dropped that one, lol).
Excellent review Thomas, probably the best. Have seen you other BMW exclusive channel also.
Cool 😎
Excellent review, thank you.
Great review as ever, thank you! I am excited about my new 45e arriving soon. Had been contemplating my decision to swap my 8 months old 40i with the hybrid...I drive approx 70kms daily, mostly through city and urban roads. I’m now feeling more confident that I can cover most of it in pure electric mode alone and can justify the cost of the swap.
cool enjoy =)
I wouldn’t buy a car now until I see the Thomas review. Excellent as always.
thanks Steven, good to have u here :)
My X5 40e 2017 model averages at 2,5 liter/100 km on a daily basis, and is charged only at home. Yearly average is 4 litre/100 km which includes autobahn long distance driving on holidays without charging. 13000km driven per year! Long distance driving in Norway gives 1100km range per tank. Warm interior while waiting or being on the ferry, without any exhaust! Very flexible and comfortable!
👌
X5 45e PHEV is very convincing. I like it. The vid was really very good and informative as always.
I've waited to see this particular model @ my local BMW dealership. It has finially arrived! Must check it out soon, very soon!
This would be the right X5 to buy, electric only for errands and then full power for the long relaxing drives.
Good review; best car on market
Great Review 🙏🏾💙🙋🏾♂️. I like the higher battery usage for daily driving and gas engine for longer distances.
Thanks 😊
as always great and full depth reviews. any info from bmw engineers, when can we expect the edrive 5th generation technology in BMW X5 PHEV ?
Hello, I am very impressed new BMW 5 PHEV 45e Very much.
I was kinda wondering when BMW's X5 would be "enhancing" this model. It's good to see them take the rational road of this application.
Please do the X3 PHEV. Been waiting so long!! Thank you!
Trying to get one!!
@@autogefuehl Thanks a million!
Will the driving mode stay on the setting selected or does it default to Hybrid each time you restart? So if Electric is preferred do you have to remember each time to set it? I have a 535e that rather annoyingly defaults to Hybrid every time. Not a deal breaker but looking to upgrade and this will be the icing on the cake.
Wonderful Review! It's the one I was really looking for. I am probably going to purchase one within the next few months. :)
Cool ! Remember to stick with the sensatec seats ☺️
Excellent work!
Will get my new X5-45e soon
Congrats. Same here. We ordered ours last month.
Great review. Your detailed reviews of the EQC, all the e-trons and this X5 PHEV have been super helpful. We have an X5 diesel now, and it has been our favorite of all time. I have test drove the e-tron and the non-PHEV X5 and your comparison to the 40i was super useful, as I will have to order it sight unseen where I am in Canada if I want to get one. In Canada they are quoting only 30 miles on electric and not the 50 miles you note in the video. I hope it is closer to the 50 you quote...
Cool good luck! Remember to stick with the sensatec seats!
@@autogefuehl Thanks for the tip _ I just watched a couple of your videos on that subject, and then tried to pick Sensatec in the configuration tool and the only choices are Vernasca or Merino leather. I completely agree with your viewpoint though so will see if I can custom order.
Great thanks! Usually sensatec should be available, try to check with dealer
@@autogefuehl As an update, we've had our X4 45e for almost two months now in the middle of the Canadian winter with temperatures that have reached -40C or worse when the wind chill is considered. This severe temperature reduced our all-electric mileage to around 30-35 km. Also, the electric-only driving mode is not available below about -20C, but it becomes available again in 10 minutes of driving. As another reviewer noted, the US X5's are inexplicably configured to use much less of the battery than the X5's in Europe. I could never figure out why the same vehicle was getting 70-80 km of range in the European videos but was only quoted as 50km in US/Canada. All that considered, the X5 is wonderful and I would buy it again and I love the electric range which is still perfect for most daily commutes. We live out of town and even with a 22 km commute to reach civilization (one direction), we are still averaging l/100km overall in the super compact / Smart Car range (4.7-6) - with a huge luxury SUV! That is in the middle of winter - as it warms up, it will get even better.
Excellent presentation, I like very much the easy to understand relevant technical applications in various practical driving conditions. You are very cool and should be a presenter on our UK Top Gear show! 🌈😎
thanks kevin =)
Hi Thomas, what are those infrared lights at 15:36 used for?
Great review as always, Thomas! I too think the PHEV would be my preferred choice in an X5, but I haven’t seen any word from BMW that they plan on selling them where I live in the U.S. I saw some word in the automotive press earlier in 2019 that it was in the works, but nothing further. Do you know more on that score? Thanks for all of the info and analysis!
Thanks! US will be main market for this imho. It should come
Hi Tomas, can you give me your comparison between these X5 and Cayenne coupe hybrid? Thank you!!
TH-cam search autogefuehl Cayenne hybrid to see!
Hoping to see the X3 PHEV soon.
We ll work on that!
I love everything with the new BMW X5, I would never hesitate to buy the one you test drive in the video I love it already, I just have to buy one.
4:35 😂😂😂
I was about to ask too 😂😂
Thomas made the look...hahaha
So Thomas, I searched your channel for comparison of BMW X5 vs. Volvo XC90 PHEV but couldn’t find one. Thoughts? Btw, 👍🏻 on your choice of music selection ... progressive trance ... 2019 and it still is relevant 😉
Thx pal :) we do have some other xc90 videos though. X5 more range and more refined though
love your review of the 45e, i charge from green energi, so even better, one quistion: why don't they drive the aircon electric with a motor instead of vwith a fan belt, then you could also have aircon in el -mode, there must be enough batteri capacity ? !!
thanks! probably to keep up higher EV range
Do you know if the drive mode default is user settable? I have a 535e and it defaults to Hybrid mode on each re-start which is rather annoying and I would like to have had the ability to set the default to electric mode. Not a deal breaker but looking to upgrade in August and this would be a nice feature.
Not sure, gotta try at a dealer again
hi thanks for the in-depth review I already have an e40 , I am planning on buying the new e45 regardless of price , concentrating only on power deliver and acceleration + handling between the e45 vs 40i?? since you have driven both.
thank you
thanks! I also did some remarks specific to that question in this driving part
Since the GLE 350de will not be coming to the US---this is the perfect combination of PHEV tech in an SUV. I can live with the charge rate as we plug in at home. With over 100,000 miles in PHEV vehicles, they are the right combination of EV /ICE for my lifestyle.
Guess you ll get the GLE petrol PHEV ?
@@autogefuehl - still not here
Great review as usual - huge kudos to the team. Quick question to the community: I plan to replace my Discovery 4... will you go for the Q7 hybrid or X5 hybrid (or any other suggestion)?
Thanks 🙏
Compare the q7 phev here: th-cam.com/video/p99OzYxI9KY/w-d-xo.html
Vibe check: passed 04:34
Doesn't the X5 have eye recognition so you don't need to have your hands on the wheel?
How is the suspension especially when you take corners in higher speed compared to F15? I drive the F15 and I find the setup a bit soft and the car do roll quite a bit when cornering at higher speed. Has the G05 suspension improved?
definitely stiffer now
I have the standard G05 and I cant be me more happy. Switched from a Mercedes Benz C63 ( I needed a SUV) and I was skeptical because of its power; coming from a real AMG is serious shit. But once I drove it, fuck!!, it was beyond my spectations. Its got all and more power than I would problably need. Its an amazing vehicle.
32:12 Nice, the new CLA SB😍👌🏼😂
Q5 PHEV as well please.
Outstanding review!! Well done
Thanks!!
Hi, Thomas , id like to see , digithal instrument will driving .
“Hey....I’m an SUV! “ funny stuff
Thanks for the comparison.
How about a comparison between the phev suvs q7, x5, gle, range rover sport? I think it will be cool!
Oh and i could not find a review from you for the new range rover! You mind doing a full size Range Rover? Thanks
Thanks! See our RR reviews here:

Does it have the option of self charging, or the normal hybrid mood when it charge itself, without the need to plug it in ?
Its called regenerative braking, Toyota (Lexus)has just a lot of people fooled.
Yes. In addition to the regen braking, there's also two modes where it uses the engine to charge the battery.
What is the fuel economy compared to the GLE350 de? Especially When only using the ICE engine for long journeys.
Lower
Autogefühl : Surprising for a 6 cyl petrol engine 😳
The BMW 6-cylinder is quite efficient. The new Diesels somehow consume more than before, might be that they now fulfill emission levels whereas they didnt do before... was quite surprised that I had some 10 l / 100 km Diesel with the pure GLE 350 Diesel
As you say Thomas, each to their own. A PHEV with a decent electric range (a bit more than the GLEde PHEV preferably!) would suit us. We like electric drive. We'd charge at home overnight, always avoid horrid charging stations like the plague, and not worry about ironically carrying around our own generator - the engine! I prefer this type of integrated electric drive train PHEV system, not the Toyota & CVT type model. Interesting engineer's info about cold engines in PHEVs. This car (and all PHEV's!) are too expensive! Many thanks, once again, Team.
👌
Great as always! :)
Can the engine charge the batteries in the same way a Porsche hybrid can?
Hm not sure if there was a battery hold function, but it doesnt make much sense anyway
@@autogefuehl Yeah it has the option of Battery Hold, so you can choose between 30%-100% and if the Battery is lower, the engine will charge it
X7 45e, 390cp total power output, 3L petrol engine, 24 kWh battery, 3.7 kW maximum charging speed, 4 wheel drive, 5.5s/100 km/h, 500L of trunk space, you can option 4 wheel steering.
24 kWh is awesome, but the 3,7 kW charging speed is rather low for such a big battery. 7,4 kW would have been much better.
I would have appreciated if the Electric/Hybrid/Sport buttons were placed on the steering wheel instead of the center console which requires that you lower your eyesight away from the road and take the right hand away from the steering wheel.
A question for the presenter: does the car make any exterior sounds at slow speed to alert the pedestrians that the car is approaching?
I consider buying this car or Jaguar F-Pace PHEV. Any chance you could do a review of that Jaguar? I'm very curious of your opinion about it.
Got an pre facelift review: th-cam.com/video/G6swJCu1byY/w-d-xo.html
@@autogefuehl Thanks. I've seen it. I will soon have a test drive of new F-Pace and will pay attention to things you mentioned. The thing is that I'm really interested in PHEV (version P400) and no local dealer has it so I can only test petrol engine version. I thought it could help other people too if you had a review of F-Pace PHEV in your hybrid cars portfolio. Do you think it would be possible to do it?
Is the PHEV X5 coming to the states? I certainly hope so!
I think so!
It's been in the US since 2016.
We just ordered a fully loaded 2022 X5 45e last month and should get it in a few weeks.
X-Line with M-Sport Steering Wheel? Don't think that's possible in the US
Neither is possible to buy x5 for 60k usd/55k eur in Europe as it is in US.
Which Hybrid would you choose? BMX X5 Hybrid or Porcsche Cayenne Hybrid? Thanks
Compare it here: th-cam.com/video/ZsvaLS8dFtQ/w-d-xo.html
X5 has more range and offers sensatec seats thats good
Which one is the better car do u think,RRS p400e or the X5 45e???
RRS phev review here: th-cam.com/video/3rW8rL_1EMo/w-d-xo.html
Always great reviews, with the straight scoop of pluses and minuses, no matter which vehicle or company......I realize this review is 8 months old, but the 2021 X5 xDrive 45e is just starting to arrive here in the US. The US BMW website shows a full charge will get 30 miles. All the European TH-cam videos give an estimate of 50-55 miles. The UK BMW website gives 54 miles for a full charge. Why does the European BMW's get 20-25 more miles on a full charge? Is this some kind of restriction put on the vehicle in the US? Is the battery smaller (US safety issue)? I can't find any answers. Thanks.
different official testing cycle
@@autogefuehl Finally found why All Electric Milage is lower in US. All 45e's have a 24kWh capacity. Europe allows 21.6kWh usable capacity, while the USA allows only 17.6kWh usable capacity. That's 17% less capacity than Europe or 20/25 miles less travel on 1 full charge. I can't find an answer. Big Oil??? www.electrive.com/2020/06/14/bmw-ready-to-sell-x5-xdrive45e-phev-in-the-states/
The camera exposure after the tunnel was a bit too much.
Jacket and shoes?

Thanks for great reviews, Thomas! Whic one would you advise GLE phev or X5 phev?
Silent big ⚡
Ok, there should have been a dream sequence cut into this at 19:06..... Thomas having a picnic with his cat and his cat gets flipped into the car by the tailgate! haha Obviously his cat dish lands on his head.
I am seriously considering the X3 30e PHEV. I'd love to see a review of that! People who do a lot of short city driving could use the electric only for 90% of their trips. Depending on the cost differential to the regular X3 30i xdrive, this would make sense. Do you know the difference Thomas?
We ll try to get that one as well!
@@autogefuehl what's the price difference between the regular 30i xdrive & the 30e xdrive?
@kevin n - agree. But the UK configurator says the X3 30e only has a range of "up to 31 miles of pure electric range" - similar to the old Golf & Passat GTE's - which isn't much and will reduce with air-conditioning on etc, or in cold weather. I'd hope for a longer pure electric range from future PHEVs... Cheers.
Can also be driven in "Battery Save Mode" , ie. the state of charge can be saved and to change to combustion engine to also re-charge the battery as you drive .. A peace of mind that you have a choice with this PHEV .. Great Video Thomas ..
👌
A nice assurance, but if used with abandon that would may be defeating the purpose of the X5 45e phev.

32:39 Driving past the Allianz Arena Thomas?
Aye
Hi there, hope u doin well, I love watching your reviews. My name is Abdul n I'm from Cape Town South Africa. Just a question. In your professional opinion. I'm considering purchasing X5 M50d, but I do go off road, not heavy heavy offloading though, more like driving on sand cos I'm an ardent fisherman so I drive on the beach. So I heard that u can spec your M50d with the air suspension instead of what it comes with as standard equipment, so how does the X5 M50d with air suspension compare to the M50d with the standard suspension that it comes with from the factory?
Thanks! That’s a good question, I’m not sure if they make it sportier then or if it is just the very same
Naughty naughty Thomas. Hot things getting longer :)
That is so true though.
=)
HAHAHA The evil laughter after asking the GPS for Audis address xD
=)
When is the x3 30e test?
I ll ask for it when available
might be a big seller in norway:) norw tax sets the prica as 30% lower than 40i But me travels a lot in countryside wou»d def got an diesel version
Can you get an M sport trim?
I think so
Yes. I just ordered a loaded 2022 X5 45e with M-Sport trim.
"Some things get longer when they're hot" HAHAHAHA
=)
It’s like steak taste, soft and tasty
Full HD, full screen, and full length.... especially when it's hot... ;)
Another great review from Thomas & Co 👍😎
About the car.
It looks like BMW did again a very good job, but i have to say that i am also disappointed that the touch screen is not fully integrated in the dash board as it is on much cheaper cars😏
Cheers!
I had the same disappointment, but when I saw it, it is a much more integrated look than the old 'pop-up afterthought' that had been common in cars like Mercedes. It angles to the driver and actually looks like it should be that way. If feels 'mostly' in the dashboard.
PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN SOONER IN THE USA MARKET!!
It's been available in the US for years. We just ordered a loaded 2022 X5 45e. ;)
How is this cars noise level on the highway?
When cruising at highway speeds in EV mode, it's under 60db, which is whisper quiet. The only noise is from the run-flat tires.
An X5 plug in hybrid? I'm super interested. It's not a Taycan but still...i'm very interested
Btw... you're one funny dude
On 23 September, BMW decided to conduct a voluntary safety recall. According to the NHTSA report, there are some 4,509 recalled PHEVs in the US, including 2,441 X3 xDrive30e (2020-2021), 1,228 X5 xDrive 45e (2021), and 33 Mini Cooper Countryman All4 SE (2020-2021). BMW is currently working on a solution to the fault. Until a remedy is available, drivers will be instructed to not charge their vehicle, not to drive in manual or sport mode, and to not use the shift paddles.
@@azbuher
Yes. That's due to "debris in the Samsung battery cells that can possibly cause a short and result in a thermal event (fire)".
We just ordered a 2022 X5 45e and were told that BMW switched to Panasonic and LG battery cells instead of the garbage ones from Samsung.
@@RobertLeBlancPhoto - Panasonic is best and LG not bad.
There should be a law against Hybrids charging at >50kW chargers, it's like filling up you lawn mower at the gas station, with a really small funnel.
there should be a law against hybrids period. make a proper electric or gtfo
Yes bloody Mitsubishi Outlanders always blocking the chargers
It's a Hybrid, so I'd be happy with about 20kw/hr.
“Yeah some things get longer when they are hot” lmao
BMW 대한민국에도 출시해달라!
Excellent review as always Thomas, but i would like to know what's your preference betwen the X5, the Gle and the Q7 PHEV. I am interesting in buying one of those and despite that the Gle makes more sense to me due to lower tax in my country than the other two, financially they are almost the same.
Thanks! TH-cam search autogefuehl suv comparison
Thomas ¨ also ¨ autogefuhl
According to the real world more stringent EPA rating when battery depleted the fuel economy in MPG gets worse from model year 2018
( 4 cylinder ) to 2021 (6 cylinder )- from 24 MPG to 20 MPG average which translates as a change from 9.8 to 11.78 liters per 100 km. Yes pure EV range increased from 14 to 31 miles which translates as an increase from 22.4 to 49.6 km in real world terms. So it cannot be stated that older and newer cars have the same efficiency. It depends. Older vehicle was more efficient on motorways using petrol, newer one is geared toward city EV use and performance. I would prefer older engine and newer battery together since both versions are less efficient than competition - Mercedes Benz and Volvo comparable PHEVs.
Does it have a spare tire?
No. It has run-flat tires instead. BMW does this to keep weight down.
@@RobertLeBlancPhoto Thanks. Lol....to keep eight down on a SUV. If you are doing light off-roading as one should be able to do, occasionally a tire gets damaged beyond repair. Not having a spare makes this vehicle completely useless.
This B.M.W Is so advanced when so many other brands are struggling to keep up or develop equal or better cars ( X5 PHEV45e) I hope B.M.W Can develop the all
Battery X5.
YES (PHEVs) are and will be very expensive, then again would most cars have the advanced Tech. and continue to have the emotional attraction B.M.Ws give out yes you do feel safe when B.M.Ws are around you, and other cars in the same price tag try to copy but don`t make the grade. I had a 2002 B.M.W. a long time ago it was old. the straight 6 purred as if it was new, no one can fault them.
Do you prefer it to the X3 PHEV?
havent driven the X3 PHEV. Depends on the size u need!
Will we get a review on mercedes C 300 T DE ?
