2024 BMW X5 M60i VS Audi SQ8! What’s The Better V8 Luxury SUV?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 фев 2024
- 👋 In todays head to head comparison, we take a look at the 2024 BMW X5 M60i and the Audi SQ8! These are both luxury focused two row SUV's that have some performance and a lot of options!
The 2024 BMW X5 M60i is one trim level below the Competition and offers plenty! With the twin turbo V8, it can tow and is also a great daily driver! The BMW X5 is BMW's most popular vehicle! The exterior has a nice sporty look with some crisp lines and with the M Sport package, it blacks out a lot of the accents which I think looks great! The interior has nice materials, great technology and very user friendly.
The Audi SQ8 is also one trim level below the RSQ8 and still has plenty to offer! Also paired with a twin turbo engine, this can move! It has a great exhaust note to it as well! The exterior on the Audi is more slim and curved VS the BMW. It has that sportback design in the rear which just gives it a slightly different look! The rest of the exterior has nice lines and this model also has the black optics package to black out the emblems! The interior is also very nice with the materials, tech and ease of use!
The driving experience between both of these luxury focused SUV's was honestly very similar! Both of these models do offer the adaptive suspension to offer even more of a comfortable ride, but they are both quiet and great for daily driving! Driving them back to back, it's really hard to pick which one I would rather own (PS, I do own an X5 :)), but both are great options and it just depends on which exterior, interior and the comfort you have behind the wheel!
I do have full reviews of these models, so definitely check them out if you want to see even more details on the BMW X5 or the Audi SQ8!

BMW X5 M60i, Because it is my dream SUV.
You won’t be disappointed when you get it. It’s my wife’s and my dream SUV also. We got one five months ago and it is amazing. It’s perfect for us in every way. We upgraded from a 2019 X3 M40i that we loved and don’t regret it. Best of luck to you.
I have a 22 M50. Love it but can’t wait to upgrade next year
Q8 The best SUV ever
I will consider the BMW but am leaning to the SQ8
Audi all day
This is the comparison I needed for the future cars I cant afford. the Audi does have the red interior which I spec out from time to time.
Keep working hard towards your goals! Easy cars to afford one day!
I've had my '21 SQ8 for a couple of years now (it does have rear steering and the active suspension) - which replaced my '19 Q8 because I wanted a bit more poke (this offers quite a lot more than "a bit"). It's mostly been a good experience aside from some minor electronic gremlins here and there. X5 is a great car, I just see too many of them on the road where I live.
Did you ever have to replace the alternator and at how many miles if so?
I was driving on Highway with my m340i, and all of a sudden this x5 m60i came in guns blazing, we had a nice long drive, I was just following it for the fun, but man that car must have been doing 130 easy.
Oh cool! Yeah these things are fast!
The Audi has much better aero plus can slam down low to the ground with the bag suspension - feels very stable at 120+.
These price comparison vs vids awesome 🔥
Thanks! Glad you like them!
Very good comparison!!!
Thanks!
i thought q8 vs x6 and q7 vs x5 was the comp
@@piercex3834 it’s the same minus the body style, I didn’t have an X6 to look at. But same vehicle.
BMW X5 all time
Nice video buddy, I got facelift cayenne s, also v8, got comfort 14-way seats. Man, I am telling you, my back start hurting so bad with cayenne, just not a confrontable suv. I want to swap it with m60 or sq8. can you tell me which one is more comfortable daily driver?
Oh really? You'd think the Porsche would be the most comfortable. Both of these seems ultra comfortable. I think the X5 might be a bit more padded feeling. But no complaints on these
ive sat in both, their seats are equally as comfortable but it also depends on how tall you are, both come with massaging seats if needed. However the sq8 is known for their adaptive air suspension being the best balance between sport and comfort. Usually the bmw stays sporty and still very tolerable whereas the sq8 is sporty and stiff in dynamic but once you put it in comfort, it floats on the road thus getting the best of both worlds. If comfortability is a priority, i think the sq8 is the way to go especially since you get more room in the front and back.
I drove both. M60i has the same suspension as 40i/40d/30d/30i (if pneumo). For sure, on
That X5 looks sick!
Yeah the X5 is a cool looking SUV!
In this case, the BMW for sure
Good option for sure!
The exhaust and engine sound on the Audi add so much to the driving experience. The gurgles on the downshifts make you feel like your in a sports car. I look forward to getting into my SQ8 every time.
Yeah the SQ8 surprised me! Love the sound!
Did u ever have to replace the alternator and if so at how many miles?
@@GlizzysGalore not yet but it's coming, 4 year 50k warranty and it's a known issue so Audi has a replacement I'll get at some point before warranty is up. Same mild hybrid alt that all vw group vehicles use that have that. Designed for the auto start system to meet gas mileage requirements on anything with a big motor they make. Porsche, Lambo, etc. They had no choice but to offer replacement, too many use it.
@@rickeyrick1 it’s terrible that you have to look forward to your car just randomly breaking down being how expensive it is, but that’s great to hear that they’ve acknowledged the problem and are working on a fix because I was literally planning on getting one I just love how they look/hear man 🔥
@@GlizzysGalore I hear you, tough to swallow but I have a great relationship with a dealership close by so I feel like I'll be taken care of. If you get one fold the rear seats down for some extra sound when you're out for fun. You can really hear the exhaust that way.
They’re nice
I’d have them both
Audi in that bright orange paint
If you like the SQ8 grunt, you get the same in the "sleeper" SQ7...but with better cargo capacity to match the X5😊 Both makers V8s are true gems.
The SQ7 is larger than the X5, that’s not its competitor. But yeah the V8’s are nice on both!
@@BrosFOURRSpeedJust like the X6 is really the Audi Q8 competition.
@@LovelyLA100 X5 and X6 are the same vehicle, only difference is the rear glass. I didn’t have an X6 to use, so this worked as well.
X5 just looks so much better inside and out. The seats, carbon fiber trim, ambient lighting.. Even though i prefer the x6. BMW makes the best engaging drivers car for SUVs. Frozen black is my fav bmw color rn.
The X5 has a lot going for it for sure!
BMW X5 hands down.
That’s what I picked lol
I think the SQ8 vs X6 would be a better comparison if you are looking at the exterior but otherwise I love the X5.
SQ8 sure looks like a great competitor to Porsche, BMW, AMG
Yeah the X6 has the sloping rear end. But the X5 is the same vehicle. So the interior and driving is exactly the same. Plus I didn't have an X6 to film with this
For me the BMW because of the ride characteristics.
packaging and wheels tire options better on the Audi. On the X5 can only get air suspension if you forego dynamic handling and the active roll bars. Can only get non run flats in 22s with super low profile tires on the X5. Both excellent cars.
As a Bimmer boy and fanatic, I personally would go with the X5 😍 But the Audi is really nice don't get me wrong, I just haven't been drawn to Audi SUV's since they produced the Q7 V12 TDI. I liked that model A LOT 💘
Yeah the X5 is solid! Both are definitely great options! V12 would be cool!
I drive a Q7 and know how it rides. The Q8 is next on the docket lol but the BMW is awesome as well
Love our Q8 Prestige! It’s beautiful and drives very solid, sporting for a big girl. Would prefer the V8 in the SQ8 for extra pull, but that fuel consumption is terrible. The air bags and 4 wheel steer really help composure and handling in any conditions. We now have a second big dog so looking for a bigger 3 row, Q7, X7 or GLS; would be nice if Audi would come out with the Q9 soon.
Q8 feels more sporty and controllable compared to Q7. Q7 is a big behemoth. So, I think the comparison between Q8 and X5 is the best option here.
@@dmenshikov- Q8’s best comp is an X6.
@@LovelyLA100 maybe only because of design
I think the Audi Q7 or SQ7 competes more with the X5M 60. The SQ8 is In another class for sure. I would take the BMW because maintenance will cheaper and it’s larger and better reliability.
Not sure where you get your stats but I know for,a fact bmw isn’t giving you anything free, that extra maintenance you think your getting for free is built into the sticker
Well my stats came from my brother who own a RS7 and S8. When we compare bills from my M5 to the S8 it surely a 1k difference for the 60k service
@@beekaye1496I used to own a full optioned 2020 m5 comp (94k) matte black which I didn’t really like since it didnt do well in the snow cuz it was rear wheel drive. Then I got a 2022 m550i same colour also fully optioned which is 70k (the one in my profile) and I also got a Porsche cayenne s hybrid 2024. Both of my m5s costed less than the rs5 I wanted. I also bought a 2022 x3 m40 for my gf and a 2022 x3 phev for my aunt. Both of those are cheaper than the other car I was going to get for them the q4 etron. Some might say that the q4 is on a more luxury level compared to x3, but even the q3 is more expensive. BMW is a luxury car brand which sells cheaper luxury cars compared to Audi
I went to test drive a q8, x5, and x6 two weeks ago, and the x6 and x5 just felt smaller than the q8. The backseat in both bmw’s just felt so small.
@@brandonwilliams8479 well yeah. Audis are very luxurious and fast. However they do cost way more compared to a bmw. I would choose a x5 or x6 because it is way cheaper compared to q8. Q8 is for rich ppl to buy not me who can only afford a m5 lol
A Rhino and a Buffalo meet head to head, the grass will suffer here, great fight
Epic SUV's for sure!
Is this SQ8 2024? I thought 2024 received a facelift.
It did, I didn’t mean to mention that in the beginning. But they aren’t out yet!
BMW 💪💪
I went bmw too!
X5 is a classic but like you said, the sportback looks gorgeous, if i was to get suv, would go with x4 or x6 m series.
Yeah can't go wrong with the X5. The coupe style is very cool for sure. I think both brands have done well with these
I prefer the BMW, which I never thought I would say, not just for the price, but for the aesthetics.
Yeah it's a sweet looking SUV! Q8 is a bit odd looking. But the refreshed 2024 looks way better. Hopefully we can film one soon!
The Audi is nice but the X5 just looks so much better inside and out. Keyfob remote start should be standard on vehicles at this price point. Much cheaper vehicles from American automakers have had it for years. BMW finally added it in 2020 but I see Audi, Land Rover, and Lexus are still dragging their feet.
Q8 is from 2018
BMW is 2024
@@HarryH187what????!!!
Was in this vehicle 2 weeks ago and to be honest, I didn't get the wow feel. It looks like a regular vehicle. Compared to the first time I was in an X5. Everything was different and luxurious
within the first 2 mins: X5 is cheaper, bigger, faster, more efficient and more powerful...oh and looks better
X5 has a lot going for it! However Q8 has more roomy back seats and a better sounding V8 with a nicer interior. So very comparable, just depends on what you like
Audi Gang here I want the RS6 Avant ❤that will be my mom car 😂❤
Such a cool car! Would love one of those at some point!
X5😎
The X5 looks like Toyota from the back... like a land cruiser or highlander. Maybe with a few more bubbles.
Ehh, I don’t see that!
X5m60i is a let down compared to X5 M50i. I have the M50i. the exhaust is so much better. SQ8 has that grunt and that makes a huge difference
Bmw X5
Great SUV!
It should be a SQ8 vs X6, like for like
X5 and X6 are the same vehicle aside from the rear look. Didn't have an X6 to film for this video. Driving experience is all the same tho
Not sure if I’m a big enough jerk to drive a BMW, but it might be worth a look.
lol honestly I never see people in BMW's doing the stereotypical driving. It's always either a Honda, KIA or Subaru who drives the worst in my area.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Well, yes it is a stereotype. The younger kids who drive like idiots cannot afford a BMW (or the upkeep on a used one). BTW, you CAN get all wheel steering on the SQ8
@@your_royal_highness I own a bmw and I’m not a jerk 🙃
@@BrosFOURRSpeedI was more or less joking…..
Don’t sell yourself short. You’re a hell of a jerk, I’m told.
the Q8 is such a weird car, huge but not incredibly more practical than the same class, sporty but not as sporty as the others in the same class.
That Audi sound system is bar none
Very good audio for sure!
2024 I Take the BMW X5.
Both are great options.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Touche' (smile)
I’m sure the x5 puts out more power than that
I’m sure it does too, just stating what’s on bmws website.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed oh yeah. I was just saying if feels like more. Just wrote that poorly
@@drewyager4020 Ahh, most bmws are underrated! This is a quick suv!
You are wrong q8 is much better
Bmw oll day
Great option!
Incorrect info on the Audi. It does have 4 wheel steering as standard.
I tried it in the parking lot and it didn’t have it, must be on newer ones.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Nope, always been standard on SQ8 including the new ones. I have a 22 and love it in parking lots. Hard to notice unless you're squeezing into a tight spot but it's always there.
@@rickeyrick1 @brosFOURRSpeed I can also confirm it’s standard on SQ8. I have a 2023. It’s only 5 degrees so it’s not noticeable unless when you’re driving it.
I like don’t like the 2 screen in the Audi
It’s not a bad design!
BMW more lit 🔥 💯
Both are cool!
The SQ8 comes standard with 4 wheel steering whereas it comes as an option on the X5.
Nice to see that!
The M60i has 4-wheel steering. It's not a special option for it.
@@777triathlete yup I’ve already addressed that topic.
Yeah, my comment was addressed to the dude who made this comment.@@BrosFOURRSpeed
Better idea just to wait for the new X3/4 coming out later this year. They will be getting closer to X5/6 in size 😂 but as fast as X5M60i with 40i engine.
They won’t tow as much if that’s something the buyer wants. I went with the X5 because of that reason!
The luxury volkwagon .. It’s not that crazy to me
Both are great options!
I dont think thats a 2024 SQ8 because 2024 was a facelift for the Q8 series and that one is not it.
Yeah it was a 2023. Hopefully soon I can compare a 2024 with the facelift. But the interior is basically the same, as is the driving experience. So well see if we can check the new one
The sq8 is a lambo. The bmw is just a bmw. Sq8 wins😊
lol yeah it's cool what cars VW group makes from this platform!
SQ8
Great option!
I think the BMW looks better, but practically speaking (for my use, at least) the SQ8 because the interior is a bit more spacious. Also, the Audi does sound a lot better.
Yeah the Q8 is still a bit awkward in design. The facelift 2024 Q8 looks really good from the 2023 shown. Loved the sound of the SQ8!
Awesome Amazing Wonderfull 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍💯💯💯😱😱😱😱😱💪💪💪💪💪
Thanks 😆
Why so many want a remote start. I never need that and never remember to use it.
I have no clue. We've had it on press cars. But I really don't ever use it either. Cars like this are garage kept and really don't need it
@@BrosFOURRSpeed try living in a place where the temperature gets to -30 lol most people don't have a garage at work.
@@ethana763 lol, yea I’m sure that would be helpful then.
Bmw doesnt have a button for a heated side mirrors. They are turned on automatically based on the outside temperature
Did I say that?
BMW all the way for the simple fact that Audi does not include "auto-brake hold" on their U.S spec cars....A feature that i now use religiously. I mean Audi is just now starting to include remote start, but only through the phone app 😮
X5❤
Great SUV!
That’s a 2023 SQ8. Would of loved to see the 2024 face lifted version
Yeah, they aren’t in lots yet.
BMW overall is better and reliability ratings for BMW has been going up while Audi is at the near bottom.
I own an R8 and my brother has an RS3, just sold the S3 for it, zero complaints with any of them. Audis are reliable.
that's cause garbage can't break 😂
Awesome video. I’m getting an X3 m competition in a few weeks here I’m so excited. The side profile of the grill on the X5 looks so gross omg 🤢
X3 M is a beast! X5 pretty much looks the same tho.
There's an option in the X5 to increase the engine note. When you have the sound on it's loudest setting, it sounds phenomenal.
Where is that located?
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I own an X5 M50i and the engine sound settings in the car can be found under CAR/Settings/General Settings/Engine Sound. From there, you can choose between modes such as Driving Mode Dependent, Sporty, or Reduced. The same feature is available on the M60i, but it is called IconicSounds Sporty. While I am not entirely sure how to access it on the M60i, I suggest using your voice to navigate the settings.
As an SQ7 owner who previously had an X5 M50i I can tell you the Audi is far superior to drive. I also drove the M60i when I was looking and it was essentially the same as the M50 but with quieter exhaust. The X5 has better storage space, better nav and included scheduled maintenance. BMW comes with vinyl seats as standard, which is a joke at this price point. If you are in the market drive both and decide for yourself. BTW my SQ7 has 4 wheel steering, I am surprised the SQ8 does not.
Both are great, I bought the X5 over the Audi and haven’t look back.
The Q8 does as well, I misspoke on that.
No contest! Audi
The SQ8 is pretty sweet!
you are comparing full size SUV (BMW ) and coup SUV (Audi). Two different body types. It would be more relevant if you'd compare X6 for BMX vs SQ8.
It’s not that much of a difference, no X6’s available at that time.
I don't get it why sound is an important fact. That's probably not even on my list. Drivability, handle the road, performance and tech are way more important.
Reminds me those Honda civics with aftermarket muffler. Yeah very manly
Cool, just depends on what the buyer wants. I like performance cars to sound good, that’s my personal preference.
Not even close to a 4 banger..
I agree. After a while that sound thing might wear on you. I know it's a personal preference but for me I just like a little more quite.
Ez BMW.
Great option!
M Power!
Damn right about that M power…..I have seen the tears of chargers and mustangs alike 👍
take the audi ez....that porsche/lambo/audi 4.0l tt is the best engine available
BMW. 740 2090. For sale
Is not it wrong to compare X5 to SQ8? I would compare X60i to SQ8 as both are coupes
I did compare a 60i lol…the X6 is the coupe, but I didn’t have one available. The X5/X6 are identical, minus the rear.
I would like to try the audi but bmw leather quality has gotten way better than in the audi..even porche
They are about the same to be honest! Both are great!
@BrosFOURRSpeed nope....check out the drivers leather seating after say 30k miles.. you'll see the difference... the bmw holds up way better than even in a porche
@@gooden000 I have an R8 with 34K miles, looks brand new. I also have an X5 with the same mileage, both are great.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed lol.. I'm not talking about the supercars
@@gooden000 it’s the same leather..that doesn’t make a difference..
Why compare X5 and Q8, it’s coupe vehicle and Suv
They are both suv’s and competitors..
@@BrosFOURRSpeedwouldn’t the X6 be a competitor to the Q8?
@@sergiobanks274 as far as shape, yeah, but I didn’t have an X6 that day. The X5 is the same platform.
What about new cayenne S in poverty territory 😊
Not a bad option! But you are really getting a basic trim when these loaded cars are actually much better for similar money. If you go for a Cayenne, you really want at least a GTS to justify spending the money for the Porsche. Sub $100k Cayenne to me isn't worth it. Your just paying for the brand
i’m a BMW guy but i’d chose the Audi interior
Interesting! I own an Audi but like both, ended up with the bmw!
Dude you’re all confused. The SQ8 does have the 4 wheel steering - comes with the dynamic suspension pkg. Hell I have that on my Q8.
I’ve already addressed that..
This was not a good comparison. Perhaps the SQ7 and the M60, or the X6 M60 and SQ8.
The X5 and X6 are the same, just a different read end..
Sq8 is a direct competitor to X6 not X5
It’s the same car, just a different shape.
Audi 🏆 🥇
Awesome SUV for sure!
Only X5M!!!
VAG is a nightmare after 100k telling you from my experience
I own a 45e, zero issues with it.

@@Mr_Ali_G what’s it stand for?
@BrosFOURRSpeed Audi belongs to VAG, I just highlighted my issues...
@@Mr_Ali_G ahh, Volkswagen Audi group, that’s what I was asking for..I’ve owned two Audis so far with no problems. My brother is on his second Audi as well..
Uhm, you guys need to do your research. These 2 models are not in the same class. The Q8 should be compared to the X6. The X5 is comparable to the Q7. Also, you're wrong on rear wheel steering. Audi Q8 does have rear wheel steering. How the heck do you guys have a platform? 😂
The Q7 is a 3 row vehicle. And is larger than the Q8. X5 and X6 are the same vehicle just with the 'coupe' look for the X6. Yes the X6 looks more like the exact competitor to the Q8 given the Q8 has somewhat of the 'coupe' look. But fundamentally the X5 is the same thing. Didn't have a X6 to use. Q7 is more of an in between size vehicle compared to the X5 and X7, so it's not a competitor to the X5/6.
Yeah didn't know about the rear steering. Sorry I got one thing wrong. Could you please make a comparison of these two so I can see how it's done?
The X5 has an optional 3rd row, so yes you can compare it to the Q7. The X6 and Q8 shares the coupe like styling, sacrificing rear storage, which makes it a better comparison. The Q7 is only a few inches longer, not noticeable and the Q8 was wider, so they were similar in size. I compared the two when I was car shopping. After watching your video, maybe I should start doing comparisons. Apparently the bar doesn't need to be high to get views.
@hallmarcusj there’s no third row option for the X5 on bmws website, so where did you get that info from? Previous gens had it available. But its not anymore
Also if there was, I’d trade in my X5 for an X7, not enough space for a third row in my X5.
Try filming, it’s not as easy as you think..
The Audi def has rear wheel steering.
Yeah, I’ve addressed that..
Not a 24 sq8, that's a 23 model
Yeah, dealers don’t have the 24’s yet.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed they finally have and are arriving. I work at Audi Ft Lauderdale.
@@timsautovision6145 haven’t had any at this dealership.
Wrong comparison - X5 vs SQ7; X6 vs. SQ8
The X5 and Q7 are not competitors..the Q7 is a three row suv, it’s larger than the X5..
Cannot be similar if. Bimmer starts at 89k and the Audi at 96k, the rest is your opinion and that is one of an obvious non expert, your opinion nonetheless!
What? These are similarly specd models are vehicles that people cross shop, so it’s a fair comparison..I’m going over what the cars have to offer, that’s not an opinion.
Audi is more modern and fun to drive
Yeah it has a very nice interior and good exhaust sound to make it fun!
Not even more fun to drive. You start pushing both hard, and that X5 will leave the Audi way behind man. Go see all the test between the two. It’s why the BMW X5 is second only to the Porsche Cayenne, which is so much more cost wise! And the X5 still wins overall, even over the Porsche!
BMW X5 is really great with exterior and materials but Q8 and Audi in general is 1 step ahead. Among 3 German giants, Merc is the worse among 3.
Audi is the best! And Porsche is in WV group too so for me they both same.
As far as X5 vs Q8... well... Q8 is a style. Looks sexy and mean! Materials and build quality is a step ahead! Backseat space is so huge, in X5 you like in 5 series, in Q8 you even have more space than X7 lol. You may decline your backseats in Q8 as well.
I wouldn’t say Audi is a step ahead. I own an Audi and bmw, both are great depending on what works for the buyer.
100k car and can't remote start absolutely blasphemous
Both can, I talked about that..
@@BrosFOURRSpeed remote start with the key fob I mean .. the app is cool but a no key fob start
@@youngsouljag08 Yeah, I can see that.

@@isimonsez Yeah I don’t think a lot of higher end car buyers need remote start. A car like this will be garage kept

But audi holds it's value better than the BMW after 2 years
Modern BMW's hold value pretty well. A lot has changed since 2020
@rkkty6996, this must be an Audi fanboy who is delusional, say nothing about cars if you know nothing, you lose nothing, Audi is the bastard child of the German trio!!!!
The SQ8. The X5 doesn’t even have the ability to turn off the silly stop/start function.
You can turn it off by selecting sport mode.
BMW X5 has issues, complicated system and expensive repairs…I believe Audi is better deal..
I own an X5 currently and I would disagree with all that. I also own an Audi right now too. The X5 is the most popular and one of the most reliable BMW SUV's currently. I've had zero issues and maintenance isn't bad either.
