More touch screen tomfoolery to distract you from the all important task of keeping the thing on the road and avoiding hitting the guy in front.

[Truthbomb]

I hate touch screen controls in cars. Bring back knobs and buttons that are easy to use while driving

[vp]

Love Vicki’s reviews and interesting points made that others don’t often pick up on

[alanwayte]

Rotary controls gone, touchscreen insanity..it’s so dangerous having to take your eyes of the road, and cost cutting is ridiculous..no wonder they are losing sales

[metalman]

Did you say electric ! No thanks especially a BMW.

[paulineknight]

I would not touch one with a barge pole if you brake down nothing works even warning lights won’t work

[PeterMossUkulele]

It sounded very noisy in the cabin against the volume of your voice. I'm interested where your microphone was placed? - it sounded like you had a window lowered.

[thesilverfox]

It’s just ugly. BMW in my opinion have lost their way on styling.

[dodgywheelsandropeywiring]

I can't stand SUV's (Stupid Ugly Vans) and the offerings from BMW are particularly hideous.🤮

[captainchaos]

Extreemly dark in the rear, just about enough leg room for a child. The paint finnish looks like its still not finnished the boot space is more like a glovebox. 300 miles of driving from a charge is only possible if you only ever travell downhill with the sails up. Cant adjust the headrest or the seatbelt. I personally rejected mine when it arrived.

[peterrose]

Ugly car, plus the hideous price and residual valve, not for me

[KillilaghChurch]

Range Rover diesel is 2 and half tons and the BMW x5 is just short of 3 tons 2.45

[WilliamLeeson]

Even if I had the money, would not waste £50, 000 on this vehicle.

[josephgittos]

This is why Tesla's sales are down its because other manufacturers have now caught up but make a better looking car inside and out, Tesla's are a very typical US looking cars were in Europe we have a very different taste. Yes other manufacturers haven't the charging points dotted around with the ease of use like teslas nut they are charging points around now they just need to make them better, to me these charging points need to be built in current petrol station more or build electric stations that also sell food and have a person in hand so any problems can then be reported asap and also someone there for any sillyness by other drivers to other peoples cars etc

[stanbewick]

Absolute load of rubbish. Steer well clear.

[philipclemoes]

Why do we need these horrible EV, s ?
We have plenty of oil at the moment and climate alarmism is a big scam.

[mackadresse]

The German car industry is doomed and this is another nail in the coffin...This car just make me vomit and after looking at the price list I am off for ever. Where is the elctricity coming from after we start the war with Russia and all our Young man are gone?

[redacted]

Thumbs down from me. Gadget filled, smart device that's like the rest, cost too much, too much dependency on electronics and ugly... unlike the ever so attractive VBH.

[brightymcbrightface]

A welcome surprise to see Vicki Butler-Henderson and a flash back reminder of a Fifth Gear and Tiff Needell.
I suggest all future videos, no matter the car, include VBH sideways and backing it in.

[ozbolli]

I haven’t seen this chick on screen for over a decade but she is like a fine wine ain’t she.
