I love how Kyle spent 3 weeks in Europe and now says “Something like This” in stead of “something like that” Funny how we as people pickup the mannerisms of others so quickly!
I’m so susceptible to speaking euro / German English when I spend enough time over there! Time to go back to North Carolina and knock some good ol USA back in me
That removable super lengthy foldable iPad on the dashboard is truly ingenious... so are the removable plastic neon belts, I have been searching high and low for such Christmas decoration for years! Every Modern Art Museum must have one of this in permanent play!
@@MadDaCube I meant it as a compliment. Not that Kyle has the same style, but he is so consistent with content like that other guy. I can imagine that's a lot of work.
Thanks Kyle. I feel like you, a nerdy kid in a candy store, when you review cars! I think if rich people get this car, then they should expect the rear tires to wear out by their chauffeurs off duty 🤣 Lotsa love to all ♥♥♥
I know who do you remind me... 😃 The chef on a cooking contest, who tastes a small amount of each part of the meal and knows exact to evaluate it... 😃 Same by you while you are driving the car and explore it and gives us your opinion. Great reviews! Thanx! 🙂
I was wondering why your launch control review was so subtle…….you too have a plaid. I have a model x plaid and I was only here for the acceleration. 😂😂😂
Now, BMW just needs to start getting digital mirror cameras. Especially for that theater screen and rear shade. The driver can't see a thing. Also, with that "look at the side mirror and the car changes lanes automatically" thing is dumb. Since you can't see with the center mirror, you'll constantly be looking at the side mirrors.
So glad someone else sees the Duracell battery in that paint scheme. Like old top gear used to say about the Porsche Panamera, it's a great car when you don't have to look at it.
Kyle, is it possible they left the transmission and drive shaft tunnel wasting considerable space. At the rear bumper, are we looking at holes for exhaust pipes. If yes, that’s horrible for $170K. I assume it has rear wheel steering. This EV has more luxury than my EQS 580. Handling is probably better in the M7, but I like interior & exterior of MB better.
I just can't get over the front end on that thing. Not attractive to me. I think The high point for the 7 series was the E38, even better an Alpina B12 6.0. But even the other new models are not great looking, and I'm no BMW hater, my last ice car was an E90 335d.
For those of us who don't need the M70/race car at the track but would appreciate the hands-down absolute BEST VALUE for everyday driving of the three i7 trims, WHEN IS SOMEBODY GOING TO REVIEW the 449HP i7 eDrive50?!? I'd love to hear how a professional compares it to the "mid-range" 536HP i7 xDrive60 experience. The only differences I'm aware of after my test drive (besides the unnecessary HP increase) are that the "x" is AWD (compared to the "e's" RWD -- which I don't need in CA anyway) and the LED roof is standard (compared to the "e's" glass roof which you can ADD the LED lights for an extra charge). Other than that, it's the EXACT same car in every way -- both even have the exact same 549 lb-ft. torque for the same acceleration from a standing stop or for entering freeways, etc., AND the eDrive50 has the LONGEST RANGE of all the i7s -- ALL for $20,000 less than the xDrive60 and $60,000 less than this M70, a STELLAR price!! Given this information, it seems this sleeper-of-a-deal vehicle SCREAMS for a review which I'm sure would be appreciated by many who -- based on all the voluminous RUclipss of the xD60 and M70 exclusively -- are probably largely unaware of it. BTW, putting my money where my mouth is, I DID factory order a loaded eDrive50 myself, for Dec/Jan delivery -- such a steal (even irrespective of my 7% off MSRP)!! Why in the world has a review of this amazingly-worthy eDrive50 escaped the attention of any competent reviewer? But hey, no problem, because I already got mine coming!! 🙂
Hi Kyle, Another great video! Speaking of driving you mentioned the Rivian. I wonder if you have driven your Rivian in All Purpose mode since the .34 software upgrade? I found it to be a smoother drive and wonder if you feel it as well or not?
@OutofSpecreviews, Can’t wait for your review on i5 M60. I am looking to either buy the new i5 or newly price dropped model S Plaid. Been a tesla owner for a while but I really miss the German quality every time i sit in one. Also, with Plaid’s rear inner tire wear I am bit confused to pay a bit more and go for the bimmer or take the bullet and put up with Tesla’s usual shortcomings with Plaid? Appreciate if you clarify this in your upcoming i5 video.
Interesting about the nausea factor in these isolated vehicles. Nothing similar but I once put on some noise cancelling headphones while coming into a city (stupid I know) and it was a very weird experience. Didn't last 5 minutes.
These cars have no soul. If at least the electric motors screamed as you pushed the accelerator. But it's just nothing. No sound, no feedback. I want 90s cars back again.
I don't understand the comparison with the Tesla Plaid. BMW, Mercedes and Audi are on a completely different level than Tesla Price is not the trigger to buy the M70. Quality and appearance is. Tesla just doesn't deliver the build quality.
BMW murdered the 7 series back in 2003 and never looked back. This new design's exterior is so hideous, especially the front end. They had near perfection with the E38 7 series. Why BMW, why?
Sorry BMW has it more longer then Tesla with elcetric doors. Rollys Royce .. and you please not compare that great luxus car with a tesla model s plaid sorry
Te engineering behind the current 7-Series is to say the least incredible but god damn it's easily one of the ugliest cars I've ever seen, and for sure one of the ugliest BMW have ever made, and I'm saying this when their X-models exist. This makes the Pontiac Aztek and the Chrysler PT Cruiser look normal.
Why would you even thinking in saving anything when you buy a car like this?Make it as expensiv as possible!For poor people like me there are nice E46 2003 BMW 330 convertibles for 10k
The auto doors is a nice feature but software, sensors and motors not in sync with real world usage. Thus, the auto door motors will likely prematurely fail and/or overheating fire risk as the functionality is not dialed in yet as it resists real world usage, constantly resisting user input. Hopefully they can be deactivated via the vehicles software settings until the technology improves to be congruent with real world usage.
Small youtubers like this are often overly positive to all the vehicles they are testing. They are afraid of not being invited to future press drives from the manufacturers. So take what he says with a grain of salt. Go for a test drive yourself instead.
Kyle . If someone gave me this car, it would be gone next day. I wouldnt get caught driving such a ugly car. Ill stick with my 22 model 3 LR. Thank you. Thanks for visiting my beautiful country of birth.
I wish the European standard of turning on the hazards on hard breaking would come to the US too.
USA Federal Government is completely dysfunctional and corrupt.
Agreed. I’ve never understood why it hasn’t.
I would also hope it comes to the world as well
I'm not sure which one is prettier, the car or the drive. Portugal is gorgeous.

Mr worldwide
The BMW 7 series is kicking ass and taking names 😂
BMW is Benchmark👍

Hey! you're finally here!! Great to see you here. The rear tv was designed in here by a portuguese company:)
I wish they could have removed the transmission tunnel to make a flat floor. Who am I kidding though, I am not the target demographic 😂
What's actually the problem with transmission tunnel!? I don't get why people get soooo upset!
@@KDR816I really love my flat floors in my cars. Makes the rear middle seat usable for a passenger and I use the flat floor for cargo often.
@@carholic-sz3qv nothing "wrong" with it. It's just nicer to have more space for your feet! Especially if you ever want to use the middle seat!
Fantastic Car
I can't get over how nice that paint color is!
Kyle is the Shmee150 of the EV world. I appreciate the content and the hustle.
That sounds like an insult 💀

The BMW EV with the "George Forman Grill"....Front Grill! LOL!
Thanks Kyle. I feel like you, a nerdy kid in a candy store, when you review cars! I think if rich people get this car, then they should expect the rear tires to wear out by their chauffeurs off duty 🤣 Lotsa love to all ♥♥♥
But this bmw is million times better than any tesla 😂😂😂

Nice to see a real review for the M70!
So I dont think the durcell will work right for more range. the Copper isn't on top. lmao
Now, BMW just needs to start getting digital mirror cameras. Especially for that theater screen and rear shade. The driver can't see a thing. Also, with that "look at the side mirror and the car changes lanes automatically" thing is dumb. Since you can't see with the center mirror, you'll constantly be looking at the side mirrors.
That,s the Future 👍
So what did you think of compared to the Tesla Model S, MB EQE, and other EV flagships?
So glad someone else sees the Duracell battery in that paint scheme. Like old top gear used to say about the Porsche Panamera, it's a great car when you don't have to look at it.
This car is amazing!

It's not terrible for $170k lol!!!!
Pls review the new i5
looks like a poor mans attempt at a Rolls Royce front end.
Nice haircut!

I rather a design update that’s the update I’m looking for
I really enjoy all you guys channels. This is cool info. I do wish the word “modern” was used instead of “Tesla” when talking about technologies.
Who was filming by the "coppertop" BMW. It was very elaborate.
Hi Kyle, Another great video! Speaking of driving you mentioned the Rivian. I wonder if you have driven your Rivian in All Purpose mode since the .34 software upgrade? I found it to be a smoother drive and wonder if you feel it as well or not?

Nicely explained why this beast is double the price of a boring Tesla.
Luxury that’s why
and exclusivity!
For a big car and it being fully electric, the floor should be flat for rear seating.
Awesome!!!
What color is it?
Interesting about the nausea factor in these isolated vehicles. Nothing similar but I once put on some noise cancelling headphones while coming into a city (stupid I know) and it was a very weird experience. Didn't last 5 minutes.
14:13 What is behind a BMW driver is of no interest to him. 😜
You still have the side mirrors and camera, though.
Newjeans?
Portugal, my country.
You try portuguese network charge and mobi.e?
And 2 Tesla Supercharger close almost 3 years? You must do a video about this...
But why is there a transmission tunnel?
Because thats very cool!
the non ev version still needs it, and they wont change the chassis for the ev for just that little extra space
These cars have no soul. If at least the electric motors screamed as you pushed the accelerator. But it's just nothing. No sound, no feedback. I want 90s cars back again.
Image Elon just add those Rear sunshield and add that 32 inch Big screen to Model S, then BMW and other Electric car like Lucid are all gone
Why?Teslas arent exclusiv!
Tesla already is going down!
My hometown of Setubal… that trash is really a shame. Horrible
i7 M70? WTF might as well name it as i7 M69 sounds way better
iPhone 15 Pro to SSD?

For the business and executive class that’s why.
This thing rivals the Aztek and the cyber truck for ugliest vehicle ever!
Sportier, faster… not spicy? 🤔
Sorry BMW has it more longer then Tesla with elcetric doors. Rollys Royce .. and you please not compare that great luxus car with a tesla model s plaid sorry
Exactly. Tesla good performance car but luxurious hell no
@@williamerazo3921 jup thats it i think

💙💛✨🤝✨
Extremely disappointed. I want 100" lcd screens in the front and back. I want permanent driver to come with it.

Certified Pre-owned is such complete BS. Seriously who needs certification that a second hand car is pre-owned?
You went to an industrial site, hence the trash...😅 No one really goes there, just some fishermen and most likely the trash is theirs 🙄
Tesla teaches us that you get what you pay for.
hi Kyle, love your videos. (8:20) I think the BMW uses a wound rotor synchronous motor and not an induction motor.
The whole front end isn't too great to me. WOuld love to see a simpler design rather than the weird grill not a grill.
First.
Niiiice 🚙💨
Forgo the luxury of spec'ing yourself, and save $30k Plus. Buy an almost new M70.
Why would you even thinking in saving anything when you buy a car like this?Make it as expensiv as possible!For poor people like me there are nice E46 2003 BMW 330 convertibles for 10k
Acceleration: 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds
Price: $170,000
Range: 274 - 291 miles
Good value for the money,and very exclusiv!

stupid ipad dashes.. cheap to the max
The trash is from turists 😩
That car looks so ugly, it really doesn't matter how fast it is, or how luxurious it is, or how nice the interior is. Just gross.
Why does it have to be so ugly!
made in china
The notion that any Tesla is a comparable for i7 (or Taycan, for that matter) is just silly.
Small youtubers like this are often overly positive to all the vehicles they are testing. They are afraid of not being invited to future press drives from the manufacturers. So take what he says with a grain of salt. Go for a test drive yourself instead.
Kyle . If someone gave me this car, it would be gone next day. I wouldnt get caught driving such a ugly car. Ill stick with my 22 model 3 LR. Thank you. Thanks for visiting my beautiful country of birth.
The model 3 isn’t a looker either
If only this car wasn’t so ugly in the front end…..
