Backup assistant isn't a parking assistant, it's a way for the car to reverse a pre-driven route to get out of a tight situation where you can't do a u-turn. It's pretty neat but it's not meant to be used to re-park the car!! Lucky you had the PDC emergency braking on, otherwise it would have hit that sign!!
You'd be surprised. With Smart Cruise these days, it's kindof a crapshoot if it'll activate at your current speed, or activate at what the car considers to be the current speed limit. And some systems even let you say "Activate at X over the current speed limit, regardless of my current speed", with a customizable X.
You mixed up parking assistant with back up assistant. Backup assistant has nothing to do with parking assistant. The first is about backing up 50 meters following the path you used to move forward, it can be used for anything and is not part of the parking features, that's why it didn't stop by itself until the emergency break kicked in. Parking assistant, on the other hand, is about helping you park, including the 360 cameras, the sensors, and auto parking in parallel and perpendicular to the parking spot with automatic acceleration and breaking. Two different features for two different purposes. I appreciate your tests, but please try to get some info before you go out and make assumptions, not only about this, but also about materials, features, etc. Many of the features in a German car are options, and there are several of them people can choose from. Personally, I'd appreciate a mention to that fact at least, since the cars you receive have one specific configuration, but that doesn't mean that it is THE configuration you can have. The same issue happened when you reviewed the i4. Just take a quick look at the European configurators and you'll quickly see all the options available, which can make the car look and feel completely different.

Tesla promised full self driving coast to coast to happen in 2017, when it was 2017 already. Other brands didn't promise anything, just caught up. Less ghost braking.
Hi team Munro. Super interesting series about this BMW. I am just wondering if you can rate / have a look at the LightYear One and share your thoughts on that car :)
The one thing that VW and other automakers got right was putting cameras on the front grill. It makes pulling forward into tight spots so much better feeling. Imagine the current Tesla backup setup but also with a small picture showing the front. I would imagine front cameras are also really useful for self-driving in terms of avoiding small objects in front or ahead of the vehicle. 15:40 Seems like everyone struggles with autopark LOL. Why is it such a difficult task for vehicles?
Its more complicated, and also model dependent. I saw comparison where 3 brands all did perfect self park and 2/3 teslas either did terribly (only 2017 version with old hardware did comparably) or 3/3 couldn't even see the spot as valid in a garage where the other brands all parked no problem.
i4 and iX do not have the Same Adas System. i4 has old System Form 2018, where the tricam is indeed the Full fletched System. Based on Mobileye EQ4 Processor. iX is based on newer Mobileye EQ5 processor. The Adas is only One 8Mp Imager. There is yet another safety Domain ECU (Asil D) based on Intel SOC Denverton. In combination with Radars (Front and 4x corner) this the Full Adas System. Certainly better compared to the i4 System.
There is a great faupax that none BMW driver will accept! You do not ever use signal on Autobahn when you drive a BMW. the only reason to use left signal is to show the car on front your dominance and will to overtake.
I know it's a running joke about BMW/Audi drivers, and I don't know if you are German, but in my experience it's mostly non-German BMW/Audi drivers that are the bad apples. Although I am not from Germany, I drive regularly on the Autobahn and the Germans are generally very behaved and excellent drivers. When there is a speed limit drivers slow down immediately and there is a good understanding between people who want to drive fast and those who want to drive regular speeds. It's the non-Germans on the Autobahn that behave like **** (because they are of the leash for once perhaps?). 😄
As a long time German car owner, let’s tell it like it is, the German OEM’s are not good at software, hence their interfaces are clunky and not intuitive for consumers to use. No Bueno and they will be left behind if they cannot adapt to the modern EV manufactures like Tesla. 🧐😕🤠💪☕️🚀🚀

i have no idea who is buying a car that has an ass cheeks instead of a bmw grill please stop buying this trash so that they fix the design even if bmw made best car that is better than tesla in every goddamn aspect i'd never consider buying one of their cars if the look is this garbage
BMW wishes it was better than Tesla, but wishes mean little to an engineer. There is presently nothing in the consumer market that even approaches the perfection of a Tesla. And none of them will ever catch up to Tesla, the best they can do is to copy Tesla five years after the fact. Tesla is innovating faster than any other OEM, now or in history, that means that people who are waiting for a Tesla Killer are delusional, it will never happen. There have been over fifty EVs hailed by the automotive press as "Tesla Killer", it is now just a joke, as is the automotive press opinions and vastly crooked reviews. Just look at Munro's engineering reviews of Tesla compared to any of the others, nothing comes close.
I wouldn't take it.. lane keep assist/Lane centering that requires me to keep my hand on the steering wheel? might as well steer it myself..and parking assist that cannot recognize parking lot signs? Seems like too much testing in Bavaria, and not enough in the rest of the world. The surround view seems decent. I wonder how lane keep assist works on snow covered roads..
Spoken like the anti Tesla troll you are. There is nothing about this car that even approaches the engineering of a Tesla, even though you will never admit it.
Again, you have volume controls on the steering wheel. Why do you need it on the console along with the gear selector and other stupid knobs. Now you have no usable console and cupholders that are impossible to use. Put the shifter on the stalk, and additional volume controls and other controls also on the screen for the passenger like in the teslas, and give people back their console. So this big car has less storage in the console than a model 3, and less storage overall without a frunk. Some SUV....... Less storage and space than a sedan. LOL.

Thanks for reviewing the iX. I have one on order, a 2023 model that should be here in early October. Can't wait to get it. I need to sell my E90 M3 before it arrives so I can park it in the garage.
One thing that confuses me is that Tesla had to remove the ability to drive around sounding like an ice cream truck, but this vehicle is allowed to make riduculously fake noises as it drives. No disrespect to Zimmer as he hopefully got paid for his work at least.
You are not alone. My cousin became a multimillionaire in a year, when I questioned him about the changes in his life, he said the only thing he regrets is buying a BMW. His quote is that every time you pass the dealership you may as well just throw hundred dollar bills out the window.
That fake motor noise is dumb. I would rather hear the whine of a gear train then some fake sound played over speakers. Hopefully that's an option that can be turned off.
@@djprojectus No, I don’t get it. Did you instead mean “it’s” an option, which is a contraction of “it is” and has an apostrophe, or did you actually mean to use your “its,” which implies possession, although I’m not sure what “it” possesses here? So, no, I still don’t get it. Please clarify.
@@paulvanderveen1986 Since when is a Tesla a smart car?Dose the car drives itself?Tesla has no FSD and even if it would have FSD it has nothing to do with smart or AI because its not Intelligents its like all allogaritmen stupid without any humanlike intelligents in any way!
You are kidding right? How old of a tesla are you comparing. You might want to update your facts because you look foolish. We drive with our eyes. We need to read signs, interpret what things are, road markings, and gestures and motions from other drivers. The only thing that is going to do all of that is AI and vision. Actual artificial intelligence. That is what tesla is doing where nobody else is. Radar and lidar can not read signs, road markings, or interpret gestures and facial expressions from others and lidar is affected by rain and snow worse than our vision. They also can provide conflicting information. Radar and lidar can not tell the difference between a boulder and a blanket, nor a person and a piece of cardboard shaped like one. Just like you can, a car with vision and AI can be trained to. The only way to truly solve driving is how we drive. Vision and intelligence with more eyes, with diligence and without distraction, becoming tire or making bad decisions and human error.
@@ariip Do people really drive very good? Amount of accidents is huge - currently car accidents are main reason of death. Our vision still can be mistaken - we can wrongly estimate a distance for example. Radar is much more stable - it gives you 3D data. Camera gives 2D. Camera depends on the light - it is impossible to test it with all the possible lights directions and configurations. That's why Teslas sometimes are trying to go through walls:). Modern AI computer vision is even less stable than our vision. Therefore Tesla still has a lot of trouble with the accidents and I think the camera-based full self-driving will be possible for Tesla after the AGI creation only. Radars give some additional information which can augment the cameras data. But the really stable autonomous driving is only possible with LIDAR for now.
Typical BMW's over complicated and difficult to use everything, I prefer the BMW of olden days when they truly were ultimate driving machine. Now they are just complicated big grill machine.
There is so much miss information in this video its depressing. The reverse assistant is not for parking its for reversing out of tricky situation such as a narrow lane. Its in the name park assist for parking, reverse assistant for back up assistant . Then there is the distant control... its distant control in the menu the toggle on the steering wheel is simply to switch the mode between adaptive cruise only or full assistance and to adjust your set speed nothing more. Also while testing the ADAS systems why not bring up the ADAS display on the cluster for better information on what the car is doing ? This system is rather solid overall and if you do a search for some other videos such as ruclips.net/video/xN-0UvhJpLs/видео.html to see what the system can do. Yes I get it this is not a review but at least learn what the system does before demoing it. This type of content and its bad information is misleading, you can see it in the comments people now think the park assistance just drives off into parking signs.. there is more time spent on subjective dribble about a crystal and styling than there is on what the ADAS systems in the car can and cant do.
I remember the time Mercedes had little wipers for the headlights. 😂 But the BMW grill is genius, it melts ice and snow away so the cam and radar are not disturbed.
Another BEV for the wealthy full of tech gimmicks. Some reviews of real affordable BEVs as the Nissan Leaf and from the Renault group would be interesting.

Yes, absolutely not intended as a parking system but worked surprisingly well anyways
Backup Assistent is intended if you end up in a dead end and you can let the car reverse out. Parking is sth else
The speed can be set at the speed that you’re traveling. That’s every cruise control since 1990.

I can’t get over the faux engine noise. So not needed or necessary in an EV.

i have no idea who is buying a car that has an ass cheeks instead of a bmw grill
please stop buying this trash so that they fix the design
even if bmw made best car that is better than tesla in every goddamn aspect i'd never consider buying one of their cars if the look is this garbage
Exactly. Why put a butt on the nose of the vehicle.
Yea
Fire the designer
You are mistaken, it shows the giant balls of the owner in the front so everyone becomes intimidated. 😁
@@abraxastulammo9940 LOL
BMW wishes it was better than Tesla, but wishes mean little to an engineer. There is presently nothing in the consumer market that even approaches the perfection of a Tesla. And none of them will ever catch up to Tesla, the best they can do is to copy Tesla five years after the fact. Tesla is innovating faster than any other OEM, now or in history, that means that people who are waiting for a Tesla Killer are delusional, it will never happen. There have been over fifty EVs hailed by the automotive press as "Tesla Killer", it is now just a joke, as is the automotive press opinions and vastly crooked reviews. Just look at Munro's engineering reviews of Tesla compared to any of the others, nothing comes close.
I wouldn't take it.. lane keep assist/Lane centering that requires me to keep my hand on the steering wheel? might as well steer it myself..and parking assist that cannot recognize parking lot signs? Seems like too much testing in Bavaria, and not enough in the rest of the world. The surround view seems decent. I wonder how lane keep assist works on snow covered roads..
This ADAS should have a high level of ASIL? Security of the platform is paramount.
4.4s ? Everybody else does it in 3.9!! It must be them crystal stickers....
still cant get over how stupid fast it was !
You should prepare and know about the equipment you review. Why insult your viewership by deploying sloppy and shoddy work.

He explained that this is deliberately a first impression.
He should have read the owner's manual to learn about the backing assist
This BMW is just mindblowing gamechanging and revolutionary!
Spoken like the anti Tesla troll you are. There is nothing about this car that even approaches the engineering of a Tesla, even though you will never admit it.
Can you turn off that fake, crappy acceleration and deceleration noise. That is really annoying. Fake noise, is fake noise.
You dont have to buy it
Again, you have volume controls on the steering wheel. Why do you need it on the console along with the gear selector and other stupid knobs. Now you have no usable console and cupholders that are impossible to use. Put the shifter on the stalk, and additional volume controls and other controls also on the screen for the passenger like in the teslas, and give people back their console. So this big car has less storage in the console than a model 3, and less storage overall without a frunk. Some SUV....... Less storage and space than a sedan. LOL.
Another Tesla fanboy complaining just to complain.
@@RogerM88 No, those were actually really good points. You'll get a lot further in life if you stop dismissing people and start considering whether what they say makes sense or not. Life is hard. It's a lot harder when you're an idiot.
sort of surprised, with the auto-park features, the vehicle doesn't leave the steering wheel aligned straight ahead
EDIT: Other people are saying the backup assistant option they chose is for backing up, not for parking.

Looks like a very nice EV although the fake sound is horrible. ;)
Some viewers just can't accept a good BEV without bashing it to then praise Tesla. For more BEV development and improvement, more competition the better.
BMW iX is a CRAP compliance car.
Tesla has superior handling.
2 grills in front are ugly and no frunk.
Why there is no video on Rivian R1T ?
We have multiple videos on the R1T on our channel.
Thank you Sir! I watched all of them but I don’t see details analysis on battery and electric motor.
He kept saying that ultrasonic sensors were radar
Thanks for reviewing the iX. I have one on order, a 2023 model that should be here in early October. Can't wait to get it. I need to sell my E90 M3 before it arrives so I can park it in the garage.
This video inspired me to buy more Tesla stock
Mike Lane? Is this the real name? 🤣
its a little bit sad that a person reviewing the car has so little knowledge about it. I need info, not someone exploring it
16:40 Sketchy Parking there,
The isn’t any fake exhaust ports.
One thing that confuses me is that Tesla had to remove the ability to drive around sounding like an ice cream truck, but this vehicle is allowed to make riduculously fake noises as it drives. No disrespect to Zimmer as he hopefully got paid for his work at least.
Internal vs external noises
Yea the noise is only pipped into the car
@@jamesengland7461 seriously? somehow that makes it even sadder.
@@Frosticus453 🤣
Highest owner sanctification: it ain't BMW.
I will never own a car this expensive. Even if money was no object, I would not buy a Beemer. I wonder if I am alone in this opinion.
You are not alone. My cousin became a multimillionaire in a year, when I questioned him about the changes in his life, he said the only thing he regrets is buying a BMW. His quote is that every time you pass the dealership you may as well just throw hundred dollar bills out the window.
That fake motor noise is dumb. I would rather hear the whine of a gear train then some fake sound played over speakers. Hopefully that's an option that can be turned off.
This guy is flipping signs behind the dish?
the interior is absolutely vile, why is it microfibre panelling? And dont even get me started on the gems
The noise is really weird
Nice, quick summary Mike. Would I ever purchase a 500kG vehicle? Nope.
500?
I really like that self cleaning camera feature! I wish the Tesla had that on the rear. Does anyone make an after market device?
not needed, just wipe with water & microfiber cloth.
how, LAZY are you?
@@markplott4820 my concern is that when FSD goes live, capabilities will be reduced in wet salt covered road conditions while driving.
Гул моторов жесть 😃
The door crystals annoyingly refract light this is a stupid design
Yeah, I noticed that, too. “Too much bling is not a good thing.”
@@djprojectus No, I don’t get it. Did you instead mean “it’s” an option, which is a contraction of “it is” and has an apostrophe, or did you actually mean to use your “its,” which implies possession, although I’m not sure what “it” possesses here? So, no, I still don’t get it. Please clarify.
People used to hang CD's from their mirror to refract light all over the place as they drive. Maybe the designer thought that was cool.
I think this option appeals to the ladies more, don’t mind it in my xDrive 50
It's be nice if Tesla copied this parking software.
O Man....BMW, Tesla is years ahead with fsd
So what?Most people dont need it anyway,and Tesla still dosent have real FSD

The camera washing is pretty neat. Tesla has self driving ambitions, but on a misty morning the cars cannot see anything.
This is absolutely not true lol
My tesla can drive even when the cameras are fairly dirty...
dont die like the guys in germany on the ix adas
Wow! that was awesome. So much better than Tesla ADAS /s.
You are kidding right? How old of a tesla are you comparing. You might want to update your facts because you look foolish. We drive with our eyes. We need to read signs, interpret what things are, road markings, and gestures and motions from other drivers. The only thing that is going to do all of that is AI and vision. Actual artificial intelligence. That is what tesla is doing where nobody else is. Radar and lidar can not read signs, road markings, or interpret gestures and facial expressions from others and lidar is affected by rain and snow worse than our vision. They also can provide conflicting information. Radar and lidar can not tell the difference between a boulder and a blanket, nor a person and a piece of cardboard shaped like one. Just like you can, a car with vision and AI can be trained to. The only way to truly solve driving is how we drive. Vision and intelligence with more eyes, with diligence and without distraction, becoming tire or making bad decisions and human error.
Who do you work for or who pays you. Maybe you should refrain from commenting. You look foolish.
/s = sarcasm. Who looks foolish now?
@@ariip Yes I am kidding. /s = sarcasm.
@@ariip Do people really drive very good? Amount of accidents is huge - currently car accidents are main reason of death. Our vision still can be mistaken - we can wrongly estimate a distance for example. Radar is much more stable - it gives you 3D data. Camera gives 2D. Camera depends on the light - it is impossible to test it with all the possible lights directions and configurations. That's why Teslas sometimes are trying to go through walls:). Modern AI computer vision is even less stable than our vision. Therefore Tesla still has a lot of trouble with the accidents and I think the camera-based full self-driving will be possible for Tesla after the AGI creation only. Radars give some additional information which can augment the cameras data. But the really stable autonomous driving is only possible with LIDAR for now.
if you wear exciting underwear would you bring that up too? No one cares about fingernail paint, just the car's ADAS systems :)
Typical BMW's over complicated and difficult to use everything, I prefer the BMW of olden days when they truly were ultimate driving machine. Now they are just complicated big grill machine.
Too many inconsistencies with the design inside and out so if you gave me one for free I'd get rid of it, it's too phoney for my taste.
There is so much miss information in this video its depressing. The reverse assistant is not for parking its for reversing out of tricky situation such as a narrow lane. Its in the name park assist for parking, reverse assistant for back up assistant . Then there is the distant control... its distant control in the menu the toggle on the steering wheel is simply to switch the mode between adaptive cruise only or full assistance and to adjust your set speed nothing more.
Also while testing the ADAS systems why not bring up the ADAS display on the cluster for better information on what the car is doing ? This system is rather solid overall and if you do a search for some other videos such as ruclips.net/video/xN-0UvhJpLs/видео.html to see what the system can do. Yes I get it this is not a review but at least learn what the system does before demoing it.
This type of content and its bad information is misleading, you can see it in the comments people now think the park assistance just drives off into parking signs.. there is more time spent on subjective dribble about a crystal and styling than there is on what the ADAS systems in the car can and cant do.
It's nowadays a Tesla cheering channel, what you would except?
@@RogerM88 For good reason. They just tell it like it is.
Well said!!! 👏👏👏
@MunroLive
Does the self cleaning spayer actually work as intended? 🤔 looks like a waist of engineering and cost.
I remember the time Mercedes had little wipers for the headlights. 😂
But the BMW grill is genius, it melts ice and snow away so the cam and radar are not disturbed.
Another BEV for the wealthy full of tech gimmicks. Some reviews of real affordable BEVs as the Nissan Leaf and from the Renault group would be interesting.
Check out the Bolt reviews.
