2024 BMW X5 xDrive40i - The BEST SUV For The Money? 

Considering this SUV and your video was SO helpful! Thanks for the comprehensive review.

Everything is an option package to get it right. Love the look not a fan of the price. Most detailed video I have seen. You really know this vehicle

Great review bro!! I mean it one of the best 💪💪

Thank you Nice video...informative..

You are able to use your two fingers gesture and pause the music. I also think you are able to pause it with the button on the wheel or the center console, you can pause the music there also.

The King of midsized SUVs. It outruns, outdrives, and outclasses anything else.

I really like looking at cars and like watching your videos, the material content and images are very good, I'm trying to learn from you to beautify the cars I have, you can refer to it, thanks for the idea. your videos

Love the color and this BMW X5 is my dream.

Do these come with the spare tire as standard now? I had a 2016 model X5 but it was only an option so I had to order it. I hope the spare comes standard now.

Picked mine up Monday night and absolutely love it!

Great review Kenny! That is a ton of horsepower! I drove an X5 for .10 years and loved it was a tank..super solid. Hope you are doing great!

How are thos 22’s? Wonder if 21 would be better from a comfort perspective

you can use gesture to control screen.

Awesome job Kenny.

Great sounding and powerful engine. In daily driving it's even too fast. Great review as always. Greetings

Got this spec but with 22 inch wheels, carbon black. Perfect car.

The 48V hybrid came out in 2021, my 2022 X5 has it. The LCI for 24 did get a HP bump.

What do you think of the AC? We test drove one over the weekend (it didn't have the climate package) and I felt like it was just sub par. Salesperson said just keep it on max. I felt like my Mercedes GLE was better

Very thoroughly, thanks for the review

Hand gesture for pause. Forest Reviews does an excellent job of executing the hand gestures.

I agree I have the same exact spec in Manhattan green but 23. Honestly I’m not mad I missed most of these updates especially that screen all the way across looks cheap and no button option to override the screen. My dash is all a digital screen but there is a separation between cockpit and infotainment. 23 interior feels more personalized. Also I hate the new shifter I like having a real shift knob. Just my opinion.

This is a very cool vehicle. Looks very fun to drive.

I am in the like buttons camp! I am thinking about trading in my 2017 X5 35I AWD but hate the all touch screen controls! I may purchase a 2023 that has the buttons instead. I hate the button shifter and prefer the older style shift control.

I have this Tanzanite color with MSport Pro, but I added the 22 inch all-black wheels, so there is virtually no chrome on the car except for the appliqués on the back. Looks amazing; I have the ivory white leather interior. I did test drive an M60 and the engine is a beast, but IMO unnecessary. The six is a great engine and sounds incredible. Sweet spot of power and decent mileage. Fantastic car.

And YES, PHYSICAL CONTROL BUTTONS! PLEEEAASSEEEEE, BMW!!!

That is a nice looking car but I don't like the infortaincenter being on a screen. I've had a couple of cars as loaners with screen controls and you wind out taking your eyes off the road just to adjust the heat or radio.

Do Apple CarPlay direction show up on HUD or just the BMW nav?

33:42 I need to know what was going on with the person playing golf on the side of the highway.

Could you tell if there was any "added" engine sound through the speakers ?

Great review.

How does the suspension in comfort compare to comfort mode in the X5 M60i??

I never use my key fob. They are in my safe. My phone is set up to automatically unlock when I go near, lock when I walk away and of course start the car. One less thing to carry around.

Heated arm rests very nice

Is the fuel consumption on the m60i significantly higher than this???

The seat and steering heating is very weak . They hardly heat up ? Is there any fix . ? I did try thru the climate thingy , but nothing . Is anyone having a similar problem?

Can you get the Bowers and Wilkins on the 40i??

Which option package does the steering wheel come with. So I can be sure to get that one?

All car makers have made the same mistake of taking away to many buttons that you need for quick settings.

You can just about get the M60i X5 for this money. I’d trade the the extraneous appearance stuff for more giddy-up, thanks

Back to buttons please. Way safer and easier to access.

my X5 has 381HP and 4 exhaust pipes

push the unlock button before get out the car???Lol

I’m tossing up between the m60i and xdrive40i. The hardest decision ever. Help?

Review the new Santa Fe! Maeve and I are seriously thinking of going with it!

Nice color, but hate the LCI. That interior is worse than the pre LCI, and all that black area around the front looks hideous. Would much rather go with the chrome trim

I fuking hate doing all the controls through the screen, this is the perfect scenario whoever approved the design didn't even bother to test it himselves and have no idea what practicality means

The dirty floor and no car mats in this nice car makes me cry.

Everything is an option. For 50k, you can buy this BMW. But wait! you can now add these 4 options for the low price of 40k. The cost to you is now a very low 90k. I really can't believe all of the options you need to add just to get what is really needed for the vehicle to look great and have fun with. Hey BMW, why don't you simply make 3 versions of this vehicle? Base, limited, platinum? Make things easier for the buyer instead of teasing them with better materials and better exterior looks if they added 30k in option packages. P.S. I appreciate how thorough your vehicle detail info is. Thank you!! 👍

I have a chance to get a good buy on a 2023. To everyone: would you pay extra for the 2024 new items?

Sounding sound system...lol

2024, we shouldn't even be able to see that rear wiper 😐

I like the X5 but I prefer the Jaguar F-Pace.

But why buy a vehicle that can’t turn off the stop/start system?!!

Hope I never get so old and boring that I think a station wagon (yes, that is what they are) seem exciting.

Top 10 fastest depreciating vehicle out there. Way over priced

Great review. I just bought a 2024 X5 and I absolutely love it. I’m in Northern Virginia as well.

How are thos 22’s? Wonder if 21 would be better from a comfort perspective
