Honestly, I really like how the way u guys do comparison reviews. Put out personal feeling, unbiased (I think) thoughts, kutuk n praise at the same time. Please come out more review like this. Other note, Matt has improved! Great job!
one big consideration when buying these hybrid suvs is the battery cost and placement. if im not mistaken the x5's battery is placed in the trunk and costs about ~10k so it is easy to replace and not that costly, whilst the xc90's battery is in the transmission tunnel so most likely difficult to replace and im not sure about the cost of battery
Previously I was a volvo sedan owner & it was a fine good car. Just for a change of air, I now own the x5 and its brilliant too. Both brand are doing very well for the future nevertheless. Good video comparison guys! keep it up!
Conclusion didn't sound consistent with the earlier parts of the review... the conclusion could have been clearer and therefore, more helpful. Other than that, great review guys! Interesting, refined and thorough. Proud of AutoBuzz!
for the record, it would be more than 15k price difference. the x5 come with 5 year or 100k km free scheduled service. that alone is approx RM 5k to RM 10k depending on the km you drive. But I do agree that xc has crazy torque.
Good review guys! Just a reminder, since you demonstrated child seat attachment - the seat should be placed opposite direction up til the child is about 3 years old. Sudden impact may risk the child's neck to break if facing forward because of the whiplash effect.
Thanks for this brilliant yet informative review guys! I've viewed this video for few times (not less than 10 views for sure hehe) After all and after few times of testdriven as well on both cars, i've made up my mind and made a toughful desicion, I opted to settle with the X5 😅 Just got my car in last 2 weeks.. Even your review can be tought more bias to XC90, to me personally, BMW has an 'X Factor' which couldn't be found in any other brands 😜 or perhaps I'm a die-hard fan of Bimmer? haha Anyway, thanks again and keep up a good job!
GC & Matt, glad u guys the first Malaysian automotive team to come up with this comparison as before i only review on foreign channel.. please can u guys campare BMW f30 320d vs 330e interm of power delivery and economical? Yea i know 330e is mean to replace the the lovely torque thruster 320d.. but how does 330e better than 320d? It sad though no more 320d on sale
Thanks for the support Haikal. Well, technically the 330e is not replacing the 320d. BMW Malaysia stopped selling the diesel because there is very little demand for it. What more with the tax incentive for CKD hybrid cars, it's more feasible to focus on 330e.
AutoBuzz.my i see, though its as replacement... still, can u guys compare both of them on term of Fuel economy and power delivery... does bmw hybrid electric motor supply the power simultaneously with combustion engine or it alternately between each other?
Good to have you both in action again. Good job on the review. Length of video is good too, not too short unlike most of your videos. Keep up the good work.
Wow. I must say this comparison video is very informative. When you compare this to Paul Tan and Roda Pusing, I would say your videos are more straight to the point and its the flow is so smooth and fast. Please make MORE COMPARISON videos with cars like proton and perodua(more affordable).(Also, you two make a good duo. Please consider my suggestion!)
Try and review the BMW X1 or any other BMW that has an X 😂 Tentu vidio yang terbaik saya telah menonton. Nice camera angles though! From your neighbouring country, Singapore.
Excellent review on both car. My personal input will be the long term total-cost-of-ownership (TCO), i.e. maintenance. Volvo's transmission has been well known for short transmission life in last 20 years (but could be longer). In other word, the transmission break down in about 10 years, and as early as 7 yr. It is a RM$2k-5k to fix the existing transmission, or replace it (higher cost) with a used one, but the 1 yr warranty is useless, as it will fail again in 3-5 yr time. It has happened to 2-3 people that I known Therefore, BMW has a lower TCO. Transmission is as solid as Honda/Toyota (famous ZF transmission) after year 2007, and never heard any issue for any model after year 2011. As a owner + DIY for year 2000 BMW, this car is easy to repair yourself, low maintenance (higher TCO than Honda) among German car. Both depreciate much faster than Japanese car, e.g. Lexus, but that is expected, and normal for all luxury German car
one thing i dont really like about this volvo model. it's the screen. actually i really dont like all instrument are integrated inside the screen. for example aircond. come on. it make it is hard to used and it will be slight delayed to changed from one setting to the another. can they just used the screen for radio, gps and entertainment system only..haish..it is not bad to add more switch inside the cabin...see the peugeout 3008 interior design. it is brilliant. that piano alluminium switch like lambo style.
Hi guys, very good comparison well presented, I have few issues with xc90 in hot climate especially when the temperature reach 45 + degrees Celsius, the car tends to be suffocating.
I love both vehicles, but I chose the BMW X5 xDruve49e just recently. This video was terribly biased toward the Volvo. There was nothing impartial about it. I was reluctant to buy a Volvo, in as much as that company is transitioning completely away from internal combustion motors. I know, however, I would have been happy with either vehicle.
nice review, could of done a drag race to see which one accelerates better haha. heard the hybrid xc90 is all big on paper but not so much on the road whilst the x5 might have lower figures on paper but bmw always downplays their specs, lets not forget the n20 engine on the x5 is actually 240 hp on the wheels (whp) as tested by motortrend so its engine is actually producing close to 280Bhp.
Guys...well done...I've always wanted to do a comparison on my car against the BMW X5 40e. I'm glad I didn't make that mistake. How about a rematch. Volvo against the MB GLE 500e.
Why did you review an outdated and standard X5, My BMW F15 X5 40e is with mamy things what you say you a X5 don't have like 20''rims with in the front 275 and rear 315 tires, touchscreen, comfort seats with very soft leather, active cruise control, nightvision with blind spot etc etc etc.

The reason why i love the volvo xc90 a lot..
1 It's sexy n gorgeous ( 4 an SUV )
2 The interior is the next level
3 It's got the best touchscreen in a car
4 It got me excited about packaging
5 And it has a crystal shift knob
6 Attention to detail
7 So much safety tecnologies in this car
8 Thors hammer headlights etc...
#Volvoselamanya..
Moon Light I wouldn't say Volvo have the best touchscreen, it's Tesla that has the best in the industry.
Zoki T but is Tesla available in Malaysia?
hahahaha is what is that shit?
no. 3 are you serious? its one of bader touchscreens...
I have a XC90
Wow, thank you for doing english reviews! It is very refreshing and interesting to hear your perspective AutoBuzz. Great review!
This Volvo is a game changer!!
Honestly, I really like how the way u guys do comparison reviews. Put out personal feeling, unbiased (I think) thoughts, kutuk n praise at the same time. Please come out more review like this. Other note, Matt has improved! Great job!

The quality of this video is off the charts. Nice work guys.

good comparison guys, gonna get my xc90 soon
Enjoy your new ride! PM us on FB when you get your ride, we will send you a car sticker to go with it :)
AutoBuzz.my sure will do can't wait
Great video. Lobe the XC90, BTW, it does say that no one over 160CM should sit in the 3rd row of the Volvo
Great review, a tad too long, but the scenes where you two bicker back and forth are precious! Keep up the good work.
Thanks! We will try to keep it short and sweet next time :)
VOLVO ALL THE WAY !!!
Terbaik perbezaan yg diberi, setuju dgn Kerusi belakang x5 tak berapa Selesa Kalau nak dibanding kan dgn xc90
the long awaited video along with GC Mah.Great comeback.
very very good... I am impressed by your video production quality.. Enjoying the Torque Show too
Thanks for your support! we will continue to improve ourselves along the way :)
complete review bros. Keep it up!

To me XC90 is far more beautiful and interior very elegant and solid .Any angle view for XC90 is beautiful.
like this comparison......nice guys...
Thanks you Sir!
omg....gc mah reply my comment.....u guys did great job,....plz make more video.....wc.
Sure! More videos to come! :D
Look like the new XC60 would be a steal.
We cant wait for that to arrive!
xc60 R- designe T8 + polestar.
Great comparison video guys. Very informative. Well done!

Thanks bro!
volvo xc90 is the best suv 2016
the volvo just looks so good and so premium
Nice one Mah. T8 all the way !
Thanks!
I bought the BMW x5 with balloon financing, after 3 years i can trade in, get brand new 5 series or new x5. But the xc90 looks so good.
hey! join us on fb bmw 330e club malaysia..x5 owner here too!
thanks for the video, I did enjoy it. Thinking of buying the XC90, you two lovely guys are so much helpful. Cheers!
more videos like these please ! 😀
Keep up the good work guys 👌 volvo for life! 🤣
Love the comparison, but not the background music I am afraid, it was quite annoying :/ But keep up the good work :)
Cool stuff... How about a video between BMW 330e vs Merc C350e as well... since both locally assembled here as well. Great job guys...
Thanks! Hmm.. maybe we should!
Try and review the BMW X1 or any other BMW that has an X 😂 Tentu vidio yang terbaik saya telah menonton. Nice camera angles though! From your neighbouring country, Singapore.
Hello Singapura!

Do you hv problem or feeling not comfortable with T8 braking?. Just some opinion
Amazing video, much better than Paul Tan or Bobby! Good job keep it on!
Thank you!
this is nice, keep up the comparison series
Sat in the BMW today it is very nice
This video is awesome. Will proceed with volvo! U guys awesome!
Nice video! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! NEED MORE OF THIS :)
Hi guys
Well done
thanks from India !!!!
Very good review! Nice little jokes and music.
Volvo : I have 2 inches
BMW : I have 5 inches
RangeRover : Hides in shame
when it gets out, barely to hold
Well not the range rover sport
Love the way two talk hahaha (Nothing against you! but really reminds me on those highschool south-Asian buddies.)
Just got the bmw x5. Feels amazing to drive
Damn that Volvo looks sexy, the X5 showing its age. They need to step up the X5 interior and exterior design.
the paddles are optional on volvos, but THEY DO EXIST, if you want them
Very helpful thank you, i m full bmw guy but i have to say X5 wasent at all that good as xc90 so i keep driving with my T8 XC90 😁
one thing i dont really like about this volvo model. it's the screen. actually i really dont like all instrument are integrated inside the screen. for example aircond. come on. it make it is hard to used and it will be slight delayed to changed from one setting to the another. can they just used the screen for radio, gps and entertainment system only..haish..it is not bad to add more switch inside the cabin...see the peugeout 3008 interior design. it is brilliant. that piano alluminium switch like lambo style.
Great review! Have a BMW X5 lease which is up in 3 months. Trying to decide what to get next; XC90, Jeep, 540i or another X5. This video helps...
Lil Riggs Xc90 or Jeep
Awesome collaboration you two! Just can't stop laughing when u guys trying to trash each other. :D
Thanks for the review.I like it!
I believe they have updated the BMW X5 i drive interface similar to the new 5 series now
Hi guys, very good comparison well presented, I have few issues with xc90 in hot climate especially when the temperature reach 45 + degrees Celsius, the car tends to be suffocating.

Guys would you mind making a review about Chevrolet cruze.
and the differences between the old and new.
i'm really looking into 2014 and 2016 model.
Can you explain what happens to the power and torque when batteries aren’t charged in plug in hybrids?would it be sluggish?
thanks for the video.
Good review guys
The X5 rear entertainment unit has a remote control (like a TV remote)
nice review, could of done a drag race to see which one accelerates better haha. heard the hybrid xc90 is all big on paper but not so much on the road whilst the x5 might have lower figures on paper but bmw always downplays their specs, lets not forget the n20 engine on the x5 is actually 240 hp on the wheels (whp) as tested by motortrend so its engine is actually producing close to 280Bhp.
Drag race.... hmmm...
I love the review and music! How can I find the music?
lol mah is back😚😆
The man himself is back!! Are you guys happy now?
yes i'm back! but wait.. i've always been around!
which one has the better hifi system
The BMW
the dont sell it with B&O here. so BMW wins
julianlee2 volvo with bowers and wilkins ... is just wonderful especially for hip hop and trap music
BMW
Thanks, guys!
Guys...well done...I've always wanted to do a comparison on my car against the BMW X5 40e. I'm glad I didn't make that mistake. How about a rematch. Volvo against the MB GLE 500e.
volvo has just 100 horse extra power ?thats corect?
I am a big fan of both cars but my all time favorite the Volvo XC90
GC is back!!!!!
i've always been around! :P
review the bmw m6 grand coupe
GC would love to to review the M6 GC!
Ah.. my car!
My X5 40e has touch screen (did you try it?)
Hey! join us on fb bmw 330e club malaysia..x5 owner here too!
SAM ZZ hi, is X5 oso get a group? wanna join as well
Shamsul Sulaiman yup it does. I don't know why the chap stressed twice that it doesn't have one.
Please do merc glc 250 amg line
You guys are doing a great job!
very nice comparison!
Very good review ..
volvo !!!!
XC90 all the way!!!
In indonesia the T6 cost rm 550k , in malay 403k can get T8, far cheaper
Definitely volvo. It is a no brainer
The x5 is just base on the lowest specific in the line up with added hybrid electric motor only
Very good video, thanks
Is this X5 hybrid a 5 seater or 7 seater?
You can change the air conditioning via he voice control !! so easy, why did you ignore this ?
Don't mind if u guys review the bmw i8?
You can slide the 2nd row so you have more kneeroom in the 3rd row.
You're right! Provided they are nice people seated on the 2nd row
Volvo for tech / BMW for driving.. Can get the R-design which looks more aggressive next to the M-sport But Volvos are still FWD biased unf.
I wanna volvo xc90... where buy it... im indonesian....
XC90 hands down
X5....different class...build quality...engineering...ahead of volvo...
I go for XC90
The BMW really looks really dated when you guys showed XC90. Damn that interior is gorgeous
Where's the GLC?
Why did you review an outdated and standard X5, My BMW F15 X5 40e is with mamy things what you say you a X5 don't have like 20''rims with in the front 275 and rear 315 tires, touchscreen, comfort seats with very soft leather, active cruise control, nightvision with blind spot etc etc etc.
Volvo looks much more plush and elegant
