Nice ride to take it for a ride to Eastern Cape from Johannesburg via N3 and take it for an awesome gravel road experience and see how it can handle the Mud with that V8 engine
At this point, any aftermarket parts needed to enhance the exhaust note of the car should not void the warranty. They’re making it hard to pick a V8 when that B58 can make the same power. Worse getting the new cars make less and less sense too.
Agree on the exhaust notes but on the B58 making the same power 😂😂😂. Bolt on for bolt on or exhaust mod on any S65 will make any B58 in an X5 stay in its lane very quickly. You need to see a rolling run between them, it’s a joke how the V8 walks away.
@@Gokrin that’s your issue assuming I said mod for mod. I said it CAN make the same power not that it COME out the factory making 600hp. These engines are making 400, 500 and 600hp with mods. 700, 800 if you really want to splash the cash. The point is with a quiet V8 and pumped in audio the appeal is fading. Especially knowing the potential to void warranty with exhaust modification.
You are so right about the sound! It`s allready the same with my 2019 330i. With my 330i at the Autobahn you can only use the comfort-setting for the engine to get rid of the fake sound!
This engine seems to struggle past 250kph compared to the pre lci. I think an rsq8 would be faster past 200kmh which definitely wasn’t the case with the pre facelift one.
Hi Max. Many people like your watches too, not only those beautiful cars you are testing . Can you please present those timepieces in your videos too? It will complement your videos for sure. 😎
It’s still an annoying sound but at least it is the “real” sound amplified through the speakers. There are some other cars like the Cupra Formentor that simply pump a made-up sound through the speakers
@@RiasGremoryS54 did you read my comment? Some reading comprehension would be good for you. I’m talking about the sound whether you can turn it off or not
@@nozopoke1782 And that's exactly what I meant. I just said that as you can see in the video (if you watched it), the X5 can also turn off the fake sound. So the Cupra is not the only one.
My guy, you seem to complain about many things with this M. You are complaining about an exhaust being loud on a 629 HP, V8, 4.4L, M performance car. It’s not fake at all, if you know anything about cars. When you close the exhaust, you are just doing that, then when you shut the flaps, you say “well then this sounds way better, but it doesn’t outside”. Like WTF? You want to go 0-60 mph in 3.5 seconds, but want it to sound like a Buick. You better not test the Urus or Cayenne GT then, they may hurt your little ears. Hilarious would only be this review, not the X5M competition, which is a hell of a machine.
Test drove one and found that my 2023 GLA45 AMG felt roomier than this X5. How is it possible. I guess the interior design seats and all....strange. Not selling the AMG that is for sure, I bought it new 8 days ago. :), but looking for my Tiguan replacement for my wife.
Jesus Chris this guy complaint over everything, that's the whole purpose of these type of cars is to make sound. If you don't want a sound buy a Tesla.
why no ceramic brakes? or rear steer? its an x5m it should have the best tech...and ditch the GPFs they dont do anything except kill sound...we dont have them in the US thankfully...
When you compare X5M and X5 m60i in terms of suspension, do you mean that the m60i is more civilized when it has the msport adaptive suspension or the air suspension available? Thanks.
Once I made a reservation at Sixt for an M5 for a trip from Düsseldorf to Rome. The guy before me messed up the M5 so I had to settle for an X5M. At the time that was absolutely not what I wanted. I was wrong. The X5M is a perfect high speed cruiser. For long trips it beats any other M or 7 in my experience. For daily use however it doesn’t make much sense.
The high seating position is what makes this so enjoyable and easy to drive on the highway! Gets you to your location less tired than a low seating position I feel like.
I was heavily considering getting this suv, what a disappointment that it's a fake exhaust noise in the cabin. Please tell me the US models are legit exhaust noise out of the back and not from the speakers
Dont like the newer X5 beamer look. The older generation of the X5 was waay better i.m.o. I personally would prefer the GLE 63. You just get more of a "car" in the merc in my opinion. Interior Engine and Sound.. And you dont have the Mild-Hybrid-Support and the "fake" Sound. In the merc, you get the 100% V8
@@PalmaladeFPS For sure but perhaps as he said himself, a tad bit tacky aswell. Maybe a bit too much technology? Anyways I like the interior, only thing im not a fan of is the front, tech/tackyness and fake stuff
These SUV Ms alway felt awkward to me. The sole purpose of their existence is to flex your money. From the performance perspective: these cars are jokes, you never see anyone actually take them to the track. Because if you are a serious or professional race driver, you would just drive the coupe/sedan M car. From the comfort/daily perspective: like you mentioned in the video, it obviously has less comfortable ride and worse fuel economy. Besides, the M Lite version of these SUVs are already pretty good for the road. To me, these M SUVs exist solely for marketing purposes. If I have the same budget, I would go for a much less expensive but comfortable SUV, and use the rest of that budget to get a proper sports car.
It's not ment to be a track car? It's purely for those who are diehard M fans and need the practicality that an SUV offers, while maintaining the fun aspect. It's really not that deep lil bro

A silent v8 what a time to be alive

I think so
In America they're a lot louder. The stricter exhaust laws in Europe ruin the sound.
europe has quieter cars and soft limiters in America they don't plus the lci is fucking sick
A car with a silent V8 may as well be an electric car with fake V8 noises for the exterior.
