My Dad is a CHP Officer. He responds to A LOT of fatal collisions. He bought this SUV not because of the status symbol because we are a very humble family, he bought it because he’s been amazed over and over again how many people driving X5’s walk away from MANY major collisions without major injuries. With so many crazy drivers in California we feel safer on the road with this SUV.

And suddenly I just got it yesterday and I'm so in love 💘 of my new X5 21!!! Thanks God!

This is the best X5 review I’ve ever seen.

Excellent review, many items SHOULD be STANDARD

I hated the lane assist on my X5 also, one thing worth mentioning is that you can turn that option off as I did. I kept the lane warning which makes the steering wheel vibrate but the lane assist had to go!

Great review! Would have been great if you could have gone more in-depth on things like the different wheel size options, colors, and trims. Can’t wait to take receipt of my X5.

Man I love these vehicles. I will own one, one day! 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Will you do a review of the Mercedes GLE? I’d be interested in seeing how you think it compares to the X5.

Your review of the 2021 BMW X5 was very good, thank you.
It would be interesting to see/hear your review of the 2021 BMW X5 M50i.

I just ordered mine, 2021 X5 XDrive40i, I hope I made the right choice! We'll see how it goes... :)

I wish they dint have really big grills but over all a LOVELY CAR

There is a P button for park since if you push the shifter forward you go into reverse and pull the shifter rearward you go into drive. Most cars forward is park and all the other functions including reverse and forward are by pulling the shifter rearward. BUT if you are in drive and press the power button the car automatically goes into park. So you really dont need the P button unless you want to put the car in park but leave the engine running. The tailgate can be selected by a menu to open both halves or just the top half by pressing the tailgate open button. Leather is optional because some people dont want to sit on dead animals skin. I have leather in mine. The steering correction intervention effect is variable (mild, med, more severe).

We bought theX5 (dealer loaner) with 3500 mi. on odo. Arctic Grey 20” wheels leather, conv., , premium packages. What an awesome SAV! Saved about $10, 000 off MSRP!
This is the best out there. German engineering just can’t be beat. INMHO it is a better
choice than Mercedes, which just seems to have “cheapened” there integrity in the last
10 years.

Felt the same with the standard brakes. The towing pkg uses Brembo fronts 18” rotors, and the m sport pkg also uses front brembos but with 19” rotors. Hopefully those stop better.

2:29 i believe you can change the vehicle settings to open the bottom portion automatically with the top portion

[PrashantKhanolkarUSA]

I love your reviews because they are super detailed.

[baldrelectronic]

Great video. What is the exterior color of your demo X5? Artic Grey Metallic?

[kubanskiloewe]

when i see these dgital clusters not readable depending on sunshine i always would stay with a nice huge analog gauge black and white like my Lexus. yeah i think i stay with the new RX....plenty of reliability and quality.

[johnj]

You forgot the big addition...the 40i now has 48V mild hybrid tech, makes start/stop smoother and adds HP at low rpm...watched to hopefully learn more about this feature.

[mkwalia]
