BEAST! A car that combines supercar level brutal performance, super SUV quality and luxury and top-notch technology and killer looks in one package.... I own the pre-LCI X6 entry level 30d M Sport and its 650Nm torque and the stunning ZF8 gearbox are super...
The X6 M60i with dynamic handling package is the sweet spot and it's $30K less than X6M. M60i has rear wheel steering and is more comfortable for daily driving, but still has a lot of performance from the same S68 motor. The X6M would be my choice if I wasn't going to daily drive it, but just something to driving around for fun. Drive the M60i and X6M back to back and see which you like better.
@@racebannon2332 The GLE AMG 63s is nice, but it's priced similar to the X6M. The GLE is like a more luxurious and street friendly X6M, but not as fast or as capable. The M60i is $30k cheaper and is more street oriented with plenty of performance for most. That's why I consider the M60i to be the sweet spot because for the price it offers the best blend of performance and comfort. Can't really go wrong with any of them, I think they're all very good SUVs.
@@monstamike79 considering price, you’re probably correct. I drove all three plus the Audi RSQ8 and the difference in power between the X5M Comp and 63s was indiscernible/insignificant. The Mercedes has a much better interior, more luxury albeit a premium price 😉
@@jamesblond1100 I just bought the new x6 30d m package pro, it’s not fast like your x6M but it looks and feels very luxurious and it needs only 5-7 Liter Diesel/100km, i am so happy, drive safely my friend
12:04 The transition between the different modes exudes attention to detail…you can just tell that someone applied their mind and then delivered on the execution of said application of mind
The high clearance between the Tyre and the chassis, is for more stability control when you are maneuvering curved roads or sharp turns. That way the car leans easily to the direction of turning and still maintain balance at the Same time
Finally someone who comments on the wheel gap on these. If it had a lower stance it would look even better. BMW is killing it in the wheel design department to the GLE. And X6M- Comp has Digital Key and a better audio system than the GLE. Mercedes wins that you get Active Ride Control (ARC) AND an air suspension.
Is there a reason why the lci X5M and X6M lack the same lane assist and dash cam recorder buttons from the pre lci cars, despite the fact the same technology is available in the lesser models, in terms of price, on the M3 and M4.
You'll have to review the 2025 gle63s coupe now! The two suvs are so similar, x6 is so much fun to throw through corners, but it is so hard a ride with its suspension. Gle63 coupe may be a fraction slower, but sounds better and a lot smoother.
What is really crazy is that the 2025 M5 weighs the same or maybe a little heavier than the X6M. Currently, I have a LCI M5 Comp and I really like buying new cars but I can't get over with the weigh of the new M5. Also, I am not quite feeling the new look especially the back with the huge split diffuser. Actually, I like the back to the M% touring better; however, I am not a touring or SUV guy. I saw both M5 and M5 touring in person and maybe the new look will grow on me.
Both my new cars are mild hybrids and I think they are great. The family Volvo is the same engine as my last one but now mild hybrid, you can really feel that low down torque kick in early which is great for overtaking or nipping through traffic (yes, in a Volvo!).
Keep up the good work, I love how you dive into a lot of specs of different models and talk so much about the research and development as well. I love the non American cars as well, keep up the amazing work!
I have a pre-LCI X6MC, it's fantastic and the points he makes in this video are accurate, especially re: being familiar with other M cars, and being an SUV M5. It feels like the big brother to the G80 I also own. Can't help but think the pre-LCI without the hybrid complexity, coming off lease now and over next couple of years, will be a great buy for enthusiasts. Still expensive to maintain, but prices should fall into the $80s-90s for a well-equipped and cared-for model, that is a LOT of car for that money. And the lack of hybrid is a plus in terms of maintenance. I'm probably keeping mine at end of lease, I think the payoff is something like $78K LOL. Gas mileage isn't great, over 15K miles I'm at 15mpg average, mixed highway and in town. This car RIPS.
Between my friends one has an X6M, it uses the same brakes as the M5 F90 and has no carbon ceramic option, he drives..... Actively... Never within speed limit, he changes his brake discs every 3 months, when usually you would change your brake discs/pads once a year with enthusiastic driving, and if you brake hard with it they overheat very fast... So the brakes on this car are very underpowered, they can stop you few times, but that's it... Though looks cool for slow-mo driving 😴😴😬
It's def a thicc SUV haha. My X6 story relates to my friend / colleague, he had a 2nd gen and then he finally traded it in....for the current X4...but after about 3-4 months...(after he kept saying, ugh, I should have gotten the new X6, X4 is too small)...I realized I didn't see the X4 in te parking lot and then I did notice an X6 and i was like, OMG he did it! Yup, he traded the X4 in for the X6. The end. Unrelated: Raz, when I first started watching your channel and heard the intro music, it brought back memories as it used to the be the intro for NBA games on NBC in the 90s....but after this upcoming season, the NBA is returning to NBC and that theme music will be used again. Just a fun fact for ya here from the States.

Loves the review. I own a 2024 X6 Comp. and it is surly like what he said. Very well done review. I just wished to delay the purchase of Racechip and used his code!
Question: we all know that best acceleration is with LC. In real life you don’t use LC at traffic light etc. Could it be that with the mild hybrid, the 0-60 time without LC is now faster?
I love your work, you drive and feel about cars much as I do. I have a g80 M4 comp and a LCI X5 M60i. I am looking at selling both and getting either the LCI X5 M or the 2025 cayenne GTS, your thoughts??
Why are you get rid of 60i out of curiosity. X5M will get your better performance than GTS. If you want similar/better performance, you’re going to have to pony up for that turbo GT. Drool.
@@bluestfalcon419 for me the M60 is great, I just did 1000 mile road trip and got 24 MPG at 80 MPH on free way, used it on steep gravel roads and is fast. The M comp will handle better but MPG so bad. The GTS handles the best and great for road trips and probably better off road (yes I go off road some with light trails). I drive my SUV hard on back roads for work commutes and want to have SUV utility with as close as I can to M4 performance.. of course all of this is a sickness of mine I acknowledge..
The X6 M is great, so versatile( for sport car ) , very driver oriented car ,very sporty, it has enough space for my dog or for girls and girls love it , . What we can ask more. Its not family car, and never been that...thx God
BMWs are currently doing very well compared to their competitors Mercedes. When I was a little boy I use to like Mercedes but since I have grown into man now I love BMWs more than Mercedes... Sorry Mercedes but sometimes it's good to be honest
I think you're looking at them the wrong way. The "coupe" SUVs do have many of the benefits of a "regular" SUV (same ride height for visibility and easier to enter/exit the vehicle, ground clearance for snow, etc) while gaining a more sporty appearance and ride. They only sacrifice a little bit of cargo room, but that's not a big deal for many people because they still provide much more cargo capacity than a regular sedan. The X5M is nice, but if you don't need the space there's not point in getting one and if you DO need the space perhaps the X7 or XM is a better choice.
Car is heavier with the mild hybrid. Output it the same as the normal combustion (2020-2023 X5M comp). BMW had to change the gear ratios in order to keep the same performance as the 2021 -2023 model. Car is a twin turbo does not suffer from much lag, therefore the mild hybrid excuse for tweaking the peaks, is rather lame… Should have kept the same engine (no hybrid) for the M car. Good Riddance.
Yeah, the pops and bangs have overstayed their welcome…if only M could get their V8’s to sound like AMG, or if one could get an after market exhaust that will achieve the same audiogasm. I think the X5M, due to its better looks and practicality advantage over the X6M, is my next impulsive buy
RBR don't hesitate to mention who made if first (MHEV) Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicles....Mercedes Benz /////AMG 😅 Everybody hating /////AMG because they were heavier (V8 Biturbo + electric motor tech on) and now what???BMW /M copying interior and engines tech from Mercedes Benz /////AMG 😅
Of course BMW sells more X5 than the X6, the X5 comes in more trims and appeals to everyday people that just want to haul people or things around in a short school bus looking vehicle. The X6 is more of a niche vehicle, but has a market which is why the formula has been copied by almost every manufacturer.
Yea since amgs are slacking lately in quality and over exaggerated price tags…hence bmws are ranked 9th place in jd power and benz is on 22nd while audi on 28th…
These are excellent cars of course Raz but my goodness they remain ugly beasts and will never win any friend…parking them safely needs care and consideration!🤔😱😃😃
