We're out of the Electrifying studio and back on the road with Nicki Shields and an in-depth road test of the tax efficient 2020 BMW 45e xDrive plug-in hybrid.
BMW was a trailblazer with its electric cars. The i3 and the i8 were amazing-looking and really clever. And then it all went a bit...quiet. But now BMW is back… with a range of hybrids, called iPerformance, which includes a version of the X5 that can work wonders when it comes to reducing your tax bill.
Nicki Shields finds out if you will love the X5 as much as your accountant.

Harry Garage just did a fairly long term review/update on this, on 1000 something miles, with short and long trips more than 60% was run on electric. Tremendous car.
Good review, thanks. I believe you can think about all the efficiency you want - Modern Diesels, Old time Gas or "who knows" gas/battery hybrid system like this 45e (soon outdated I guess...) BUT the X5 as a car model is still an extremely good car to drive generally. We plan to keep our X5 for a very long time now - repairs, tires etc, all included. It's just a too good car to sell after 5 years...even a new car got every new fancy tech you'd dream off. Our experience...the X5 got everything you need for a LOOOg time -just grab one and enjoy :-))
Great video! Won't be long before all SUVs are hybrid!
The battery at 24kwh is bigger than our first Renault Zoe was (20kwh). Things are moving on.
I wish mine would do the miles claimed. The most I get from the battery is 38.
What sort of mpg are you chaps getting when the battery is dead?
02:54 units of torque is 'pound foot', as pounds force times the distance in feet not 'pounds per foot' as in pounds divided by feet. If people are buying stuff based on those numbers then yes, getting it right does matter.
Strictly it ought to be Nm, Newton metres, in metric but hey...
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWNNNNNNNNN :)
Did she just make a big deal about keyless entry? 🤦🏻♂️
I had keyless entry on my 2004 Megane.
That's nice.
Should get delivery of mine in 3 weeks! Can’t wait.
👍 would be great to hear what real world range you get in pure EV. I’m considering one myself and have a 45 mile commute with charger at the office.
nice job man I’m getting mine in a week
@@IDBuzzSteve I have the same commute and am managing to get to and from work on electric only - great vehicle!
Did you get it? Thoughts?
Very informative
Top notch review Electrifying beauty & brain of the lady reviewer Subscribed
can I ask, has what has been the range if run on just purely hybrid? - real world data?
Hi Please can you review the LR - Evoke/DS/RRS
Thanks
See her with Baron Von Grumble here on YT, very funny they are too.
I'm always baffled by how people still get excited about keyless entry. I've got ten year old and fifteen year old Renaults with keyless entry on both of them... And it doesn't matter how much stuff you're carrying you still have to put it down to open the door! 😂
HAHA.. very true!!!!!.... Although faffing around trying to find it in an overloaded handbag = massive pain! And yes they have been around awhile - but it still gets me excited!
totally agree.. had it in my 2014 Audi...
She should have mentioned that you can set the car to lock and unlock when you approach the vehicle with the key in your pocket, you don't have to touch the handle to unlock it.
Thank you
Great car
Mmm 282 + 111 = 389, didn't when I went to school!
I'm reading that there is a recall already on this car. Has anyone been experiencing issues?
There has been a recall to change the label on the charging device the car comes with.
Excuse me, but didn't they have keyless car entry 10 years ago? I had mine in my 2009 Toyota Auris.
I had a 24kwh battery in my 2014 Leaf, it was good for 90 miles real world, but BMW only manage 50 at best, is that progress?
Riddle me this...which one's heavier...a nissan leaf or a bmw x5 suv...the answer's in the name?!?!
Well, once that Leaf ran out of charge...you were out of luck. Meanwhile, the X5 will keep rolling for another 250+mi on gas and then will keep doing that the rest of the day after a quick 10min fuel stop.
Plus it can tow 7200lbs, go through mild off road terrain, massage your bum, and carry 4 people in total comfort with individual climate zones and a wonderful panorama roof.
So I’d say, yes - it is absolutely progress.
90 miles? How long can last? An hour? 2? The battery in phone isn’t even measured in those units and lasts all day!
In other news, make comparisons that make sense.
@@shentzu That was six years ago, when 25 kwh achieved 90 miles, but today it only gives you 50!
Well the X5 does weigh 60% more, plus is larger/less aerodynamic (more drag), plus bigger wheels/tires (more drag), plus a 4wd drivetrain (less efficient).
Completely different car in all aspects. You’re comparing apples to oranges mate.
There is "Dynamics Kids Control" - it's called "education".
Why not choose a pure electric like Tesla model Y or Id.4 or Skoda Enyaq instead (all will soon be available). Then you can go far on pure electric, and do something good by emitting a lot less CO2 and not pollute the air locally sometimes. For instance if you drive on gasoline/diesel in citys, people in the citys being next to you when driving, has to breathe the harmful exhaust smoke from your car. Plus the BMW X5 Hybrid 45e weighs 2,435 kg, Tesla model Y Long range weighs 2,003 kg, which is helping the model Y be more environmental friendly.
Because the load capability of the Tesla’s is not as good and the Tesla costs a lot more to buy.
Price
Teslas no longer qualify for tax credit. The BMW has arguably better build quality and interior, although this is somewhat subjective. Some areas of the country do not have robust charging networks to support full electric vehicles for long distances. Thus hybrids allow more flexibility.
@@RedCandleWax24 Yes, but I think that now the iX seems like a really good option compared to X5 Hybrid 45e
Tesla is just ugly, rides is so harsh and interior is cheap and naff looking . Good electrical motor and range but its not a BMW dude. Skoda is ok. Full ev is not for everyone and waiting st charge stations is not good.
Ding dong....the car is not bad either...
What is the environmental and health impact of producing the battery and disposing of it at the end of its useful life? We need regs for this (and batteries of all kinds), as I suspect the environmental benefit marketing is pure nonsense.
You have a point... But overall battery will probably still be better than gasoline + making all these complex modern ICEs + maintenance waste, etc.
@@kevinmsft Hydrogen would be, but of course the mining industry has no interest in that because there is no money in it for them. So we’ve allowed the finite fossil fuel problem to be shifted to the finite precious metals problem and fallen for the feel good marketing nonsense of the EV industry. We did the same thing with cigarettes about a 100 years ago. Stupid humans.
24kwh 50m range in 2020 is a big deal? Seriously? BMW is years behind on battery technology

@@Jacob-uk4kl you do realise you're comparing a Skoda, a VW and a Tesla to a BMW X5, right?
@@eddie8742 I´m just saying if you want to help do something more for the global warming change and not have a car that pollutes the air when you drive on diesel/gasoline, there´s alternatives.
Do you think a BMW is a better car than a Tesla all in all?
@@Jacob-uk4kl Well, regarding choosing greener, I guess it's a personal decision. Totally respectable. From my side, I have yet to see a production-to-disposal analysis of the impact of batteries, not to mention the other human-rights related issues with lithium. I'm not saying it's not greener, but I'm yet to see end-to-end evidence. At least at a level that significantly contributes to saving the planet. If the issue is in-city pollution, then plug-in hybrids can achieve the same. BMWs even change to electric automatically when you enter a city zone.
Regarding whether a BMW is a better car than a Tesla, I think hands down yes. Whether the X5 is a better car, I'd say yes^2. Teslas are nice gadgets, BMWs are nice allround cars.
It all boils down to personal preference though.
@@Jacob-uk4kl Look, I've just seen this news on an analysis made by Polestar (GTranslate from Norwegian): translate.google.com/translate?sl=no&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tu.no%2Fartikler%2Fmener-polestars-egen-analyse-stiller-bensinbilen-i-et-bedre-lys-enn-den-fortjener%2F499472
Quality of ride is Sooo important..just gloss over it nonsense. Everyone's got broken backs but ooohh the build quality....silly
This is called "in depth" !!! and there was not a single shot of the dashboard or middle console!!! Disliked :( really? "in depth" ?
Good point Shervin - we'll make sure we have full interior shots on all reviews in future. In the mean time, have a look at the review on our website - there are plenty of interior shots there: www.electrifying.com/reviews/bmw/x5-45e/review
Man not happy with free content shocker!!
@@HarrySchilbach I pay for RUclips Premium and I believe watch time "incl ads" doesn't mean free at all... so if you are a free watcher that's your own decision but do not compare yourself to others, therefore you don't get shocked :)
@@Electrifyingcom Thank you will check it out now...
Unreliable, engine failed twice in 3 months. Had to give it back. Terrible handling if you have to brake hard on a curve as the weight tries to turn the car around.
Interesting! Tell me more. I always like to hear both Negative and positive reviews. That 300kg battery weight must affect handling..? Even if they're down low. And is it much faster than my 730d to justify getting the 45e over the x5 30d..? I'd love a real world long term test between a 45e & 30d. Purchase price, acceleration, economy (including charging cost)... Still can't decide 🤔😬
@@barrymorkan2383 Hey there. Did you managed to make any decission? I am right now stating in the same shoes: can't decide if it's a 45e or a 30d.
@alexandruflorinpuha7365 - I'm afraid I can't help you decide. I never changed my car. Decided to buy a house in Switzerland instead. Playing with the idea of an F10 M5 this year, because why not 😎😃
Nicki you’re one beautiful looking woman 😍
