I have a 2023 GV80 prestige version with 10Kmi. Couldnt be happier. To me it is elegant, slick and very quick for an SUV. Great bang for the buck relative to the comp at this level.

Adding the third row in the GV80 does not remove second row space and the third row can be folded, so get it if you need it from time to time.

Just brought mine 3 months ago in this exact interior and exterior color and I love it.

[kathie]

I’m looking at getting the gv80 this year. I need to drive it. It’s a beautiful car❤❤

[brandonlange]

And another feature of the bmw is it’s always in the shop.

[SHHS]

Bought this instead of GLE and X5 and it has more features in lesser money.

[rh]

Not having Ergo Motion Seats for both Driver and Passenger is a deal breaker on a 80, 000 vehicle.

[ADOS_DSGB]

So clean and minimal, beautiful, I love it! I want one!

[TheThannis]

We have wireless carplay now, even on older models, I have a 2023 3.5 prestige

[ShowMeWhatINeedToKnow]

THEY KEEP REMOVING PHYISCAL BUTTONS -- It's terrible for distractions, usability, and safety. Tired of this crap.

[CarsandTechInfo]

2:43 The GLE & X5 don't offer ventilated rear seats, manual or power reclining rear seats (except for the GLE with the 3rd row seat package), rear view mirrors for outer passengers, or power rear shades so it's not really a big deal if it has a 3-zone instead of a 4-zone climate system

Special thanks to our Patreons for their support of the channel! GV80 or X5?

[timmyg]

I like the windshield effect for speed and other feedback on the windshield without having to look down to the dashboard. Seems odd that they removed this feature.

Thank you so much for the update information on the carplay

[tonywong]

Look forward to seeing a more efficient powertrain...I will take either a hybrid or PHEV and ready to upgrade from my current Kia Sorento PHEV which I quite enjoy

[genxtechguy]

I think the interior styling and features for your buck really outdoes the x5.

[tyreevans]

That’s better than Lexus interiors 😂😂what are you saying?

[welbyroberto]

Anything is better than my model Y in interior and exterior finish, built quality. The only thing Elon beats the other brands is the battery range

[dasteufelhund]

BMW on its way to its nearest repair shop whereas GV80 to its nearest charging/gas station. Which one would you pick?

[alengreen]

a big comfy luxury SUV with a big present and with a fair price.
