2017 BMW 535i Gran Turismo Unboxing - Is This The Smarter Choice Over An X5?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 ноя 2016
- For our latest unboxing review we bring you the 2017 BMW 535i xDrive Gran Turismo. What's "xDrive"? That's BMW-speak for all-wheel drive. Built on the same platform as the outgoing 5 Series sedan, the 535 GT is an enlarged, wagon-like version of the sedan that had a rough and wild night with the 5 Series wagon, which is still sold overseas. Standard power comes from BMW's excellent turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six with 300 hp and 300 lb-ft of torque. In this case, power is sent to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic transmission. But why should anyone consider the 5 GT over, say, an X3, X5, or any other premium crossover/SUV? Because unlike the X5, the 5 GT actually drives like a proper BMW, the "Ultimate Driving Machine." Yes, it's heavier than the regular 5 sedan, but the 5 GT still inherits its wonderful chassis and suspension.
Step inside and you'll find a very familiar interior, but with an awful lot more space. With the rear seats folded flat and which can move forward by four inches, owners will enjoy a grand total of 59.5 cubic feet of cargo room. Our tester also came equipped with the optional Driver Assistance Package, M Sport Package, and Premium Package, thus proving a true BMW experience. Our biggest complaint (and like yours, too)? That exterior design. Yeah, it's pretty damn ugly. Enjoy the review!

No way that car is ugly, imo it’s looks superb.
This car is not ugly. It's so pretty.
Yes sir, I love mine.
I have one also and I love it, the idiot is not realizing that it's a crossover. Period.
I love the back, looks futuristic
Also it’s built on the 7 series platform... hence the extra interior room.
Beautiful car. The slopping roof looks fantastic. I especially like the profile and back-end designs.
I love how it looks as well!! Not sure why the guy keeps saying it’s ugly??
Not ugly at all, I love it
I think the exterior design is nice, looks sleek and I think the design will make it look modern for a long time.
I don't think it's ugly but it looks okay.
Purchased this vehicle new about six weeks ago, just got around to putting two hundred miles on it. Came out of an X5 and definitely don’t regret the purchase. Yes it’s a strange looking vehicle but the functionality surpasses the looks.
Yeah you have to live with one to understand design choices BMW has made. Works well for a large family. I have an 30d.
I have a X5 and a Gt535i. The gt is great to Drive an travel
Great review. Different than those regular guys who gives reviews. Your true options are very realistic and helpful. Thanks
Nah I wouldn't call it ugly at all..more so a unique design with smashing interior 👌
I really think of this car as a bargain 7series rather than an expensive 5series and the style is something that stars growing in you.
Sebastian Guasque I used to pull up next these on the highway while in my X5 and think “God that car is ugly”, after driving one, experiencing the interior leg room and comforts I just bought one. Now I’m the guy in the ugly car but it’s so versatile I think I made the right decision.
I wd traded a 523i for the BMW 535 anytime. The GT has so much class and finesse.
Superb car. I love it more than my 525i

I have a 530d GT what i notice about models like the GT and the X4,X6 people love the looks or hate the looks I love it :)
I like the look of this car. It's like a high end Honda CrossTour at twice the cost. I'm looking at used models now but the cost of maintenance is high as this car ages. I'd love to own one.
Very informative - thanks for helping me make my decision!

Very good job, thanks
I purchased 30k driven 2015 530d gt for 13k only. Worth every penny.
Nice video! you show us much better than the others with video's about bmw! :D
Clicked on 'subscribers" !
My favorite car I have ever owned. 550i XDrive is the best in luxury and power. 400 HP w 450 torque. 💯
GT is a big boy car, it looks sexy... I had one... I will say from the front it didn’t look that good but the rest of it definitely
Really love your vids man. when the 2017 5 series comes plz do a review
Thank you! Absolutely, the new 5 Series is very much on the list.
This car is based on a 7 series F01. A G11 is already out which means the new model of a gran turismo is coming soon.
Adirian Mercedes no this is 5 platform with alot of parts from 7 series
Adirian Mercedes a
No this is a 7 series platform with 5 series interior@@zippodk
@@yogaexe You are wrong. F10 platform. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_5_Series_Gran_Turismo
@@zippodk The F07 uses the F01 platform and shares many components with the other 5 Series models.
Please read more accurately
This is not true it's much better in real life
I want to buy that BMW 5 series gran turismo!
I got the 2012 it looks the same as This
@@marcusdavisdavis8986how is the maintenance on that year & model ? Anything major ?
It’s a beast
It’s based on the seven series platform.
Can it have a remote start option
The car is beautiful comfortable nice the only problem is the problems with bmws not just this one
I just bought a 2010 everybody thinks it's 2020 or newer I love it previous owners did great
Dude, before we start calling anything ugly - get a shower, a haircut and a wardrobe to fit a premium car. Lots of love - a X6 owner.
Thats rude, especially from a gay like you
@@datboy4322 I just cannot stand seeing this cute guy like that 😪
I forgot to mention he should do the review shirtless 🤤
Its not based on a 5 series.. its based on a 7 series
The design concept is typically designated as a, 'Fast-back'. Also, you should be aware of the Audi A7. It is a direct competitor to the BMW Gran Turismo. I honestly love fast-back design, although I think A7 is a bit more refined. Ironically, I found this video, but I'm guessing you did this first, then the A7.

Honda does make something like this. Its called the Crosstour.
Do you think you'll be able to do a review of the 3 Series Gran Turismo? I think it's more proportional and generally better looking.
Good idea! But I'll have a regular 3 Series sedan review up first. Stay tuned...
Looks nicer in black
u sure this is the 2017 model?
It’s 2016 I guess looking at the rear light. The 2010-2013 has flat rear light.
Doesn't this compete with the Audi A7? You said there's nothing like it out there.
bmw has an issue with allowing passengers to recline the rear seats as much as they want . 🤦🏾♂️
That is my only problem
This car hve Bluetooth or not
It Has Bluetooth
Yes and it works well.
$70K for 300HR engine? I ll skip.
Enter the gran'pa of the 5 series
You sound 14
Its based on 7 series, do your homework please.
There is no “D” in Gran Turismo... never was and never will be. People should read something before making statements like that smh.
I saw Lot of D on auctions
You talk too nice and... too much :)))
But thanks for the review.
He looks like one of those young homeless white guy walking around in Sacramento....
😩😩😩😂
