Great review. Had all the details I wanted. In particular the driving modes. Thanks.

Perfect execution of a PHEV! I think this X5 50e is a solid choice for those who don’t want an EV especially with the B58

Thank you, the air suspension section is extremely helpful, love it!

Love mine. Mid April build. May 3, 2023 delivery. Almost 9000 miles now. Great drivers car. Dealers are still learning about this car. For the price of just the Level 2 pigtail for the included BMW EVSE, I was able to get an entire EVSE (charging cable) that I’ve permanently mounted in my garage for just a little bit more than just the price of the pigtail.

I haven't finished the video yet, but have to correct a few things regarding the charging -- as someone who has owned a 50e since mid-June.

1. On level 2 chasing, the car charges from "empty" (or whatever minimum buffer it lets you get to) in just over 3 hours, not 7. I used either the included BMW flexible fast charger connected to a 240V outlet using the Level 2 pigtail OR I use a 48 Amp Juicebox. In both cases, it's just over three hours and the charging rate is pretty consistently at about 7 kWh. This is a critical point that should be corrected as it may affect someone's view of whether they will be able to get nearly all-electric use out of this (as we have).

2. BMW should include the Level 2 pigtail rather than charging you $200+ for it. He is right, that it is NOT standard, however a number of dealers are including it as a goodwill gesture as it greatly enhances the ability to juice up and go if you are, for instance, doing multiple drives in a day that would exceed the electric-only range. My dealer included it. BMW of Morristown should too (for a car that's likely going to sell at >$80K. They were difficult to source for a while, but I believe they have been stocked more regularly by BMW in the U.S.

3. Not sure where the get the electric-only range as 39 miles. Not a big deal, but everywhere else I've seen 40 miles as the projected range. More importantly, we are generally getting closer to 45 in our actual usage -- including in the summertime here in the US where the AC is being run regularly. In the US, due to required warranty coverage for, I believe, 8 years, BMW includes a very large buffer of unusable capacity. Theoretically, were that buffer not employed, range would be quite a bit longer, as I believe is the case in some European locations.

This engine needs to be installed in the 3 series lineup !

Informative insightfully commented well descripted presentation. Thank you! One question: Does the PHEV include rear-wheel steer?

Charging time in my 50e from o% to 100% is 3.5 hrs with a level 2 36amp house charger . Real life electric only range 44miles

I have this vehicle, it's phenomenol.

I wish the X6 had the 50e as an option. It's kind of dumb it doesn't since the shape is more conducive for the EV aspect of it.
I wish the 50e could have the B&W stereo system.

I am on verge of buying a fully specced one. Test drove today. Seamless between power trains. Can you help. I put it in electric only but if I fully planted my foot the motor fired up. I thought it was meant to just stay in electric. I double checked it twice but motor still cut in even when I pressed electric. ? Was I missing something

Does this come with Air Suspension as standard or is it part of the M Package?

bufalobilbo

Can you get the m sport on the x5 40i with blue calipers and air suspension but without the msport professional ?

1) Approximately, how much charge the battery must have in order to be able to pre-cool the vehicle for 5 mins with MAX A/C?.

2) Are the full 483hp only available when the battery is charged?. When the battery is depleted, is the vehicle slower?.

3) In order to get the 58mpg, does the battery has to be charged?.

4) Let’s say you leave home with a 100% charged battery for a long road trip and you drive in the most efficient mode always (hybrid I assume). At some point, will the battery go down to 0% and then you will have a much lower efficiency than the 58mpg?.

Thanks!.

tatoweb

If you set it to "Electric" mode, when the battery is almost exhausted, does it automatically switch itself back to "Hybrid" mode?

When are the hydrogen fuel cell cars coming out? My understanding is part of the reason BMW worked with Toyota on the Supra is so that they would share tech from their hydrogen car the Mirai. Great video btw, I just thought BMW was gonna release a hydrogen car soon.

evanz

Does this car have a spare wheel? I know some hybrid cars have no room for a spare wheel.

yudel

Does the battery charge from the gas engine while driving or you have to charge by plug in
