Yes diesel fuel is typically higher priced than gas, BUT you calculate the cost per mile, NOT the cost per gallon. Example: If diesel is $3.00 per gallon and your vehicle gets 30 mpg, your cost-per-mile is $0.10. If gas is $2.70 per gallon and your vehicle gets 18 mpg, your cost-per-mile is $0.15. Simple math.

You can adjust the volume of those backup sensor alerts or mute them all together you know. That kind of makes your rant irrelevant. Also, if you're turning while backing up it's possible to hit something in the front with your quarter panel.

When you do parallel parking it is very possible to hit something in front while being in reverse. This is most common way of parking here in EU. So it is quite handy feature.

This guy is only good for reviewing cabrio mini coopers and pink Barbie bicycles. Not BMWs.

You say you ACCIDENTALLY shift to neutral when you need to simultaneously press the unlock button? I think you need to be checked by a doctor for suspected bipolar disorder. You might have another self that changes gears without your knowledge.

I actually think both parking distance warnings being active isn't such a bad thing..helps me from curving my wheels..and there is a significant fuel savings actually diesel vs petrol...

So if it doesn’t have glow plugs what does it have ?

3:48. Can you imagine driving by and seeing that?

when reversing from parking spot you absolutely want the front sensors to be on! prevents one from hitting a vehicle beside you as you crank the steering wheel to pull out at an angle because many parking lots won't let you pull out straight back why are you even reviewing cars??

This guy needs something simpler to review, like a pair of shoes, he reminds me of the pretty Asian girls reviewing cars in the sense he is clueless about technology and cars and anything that is more complicated than an on off switch, except he's not a pretty Asian girl.

Well then don't rest your fucking hand on the gear shifter. SMDH.

Hey Man! Nice review u got there! Very informative! Oh and btw I did a review of the X5 and I was wondering if you could give me ur advice on my review! Thanks in advance and great continuation.

I drive one. This is a European car. In Europe we have narrow parking spaces and high curbs, and we also have to park in parking garages, where there are many poles for structural rigidity. The beep upfront is a different one than in the rear, so you can differentiate. We also have the option for 360° Brids Eye view which helps a lot, since this is one of the biggest cars available, having to park on parking space of a Golf. The front sensor saved my ass many times from hitting an object with the front of the car when reversing and turning at the same time. There is also a wide view camera mode available for the rear. You just have to push the reversing camera button ones and this will activate the thru traffic radars and you actually get 180° angle of view. Also very handy in small intersections. All in all this car is a perfect allrounder with very little compromise. You can tow 7700 lbs with it, it fits your family and all your luggage. The AWD system is perfect in snowy conditions. Its definitely not an off-roader. I did not regret buying it. If you want more power go for the 40d (313Hp - 5,9s 0-62) or 50d (380hp, 4,8s 0-62).

How do you think someone who buys a $60k BMW affords it, by saving money! So yes, a diesel does make sense for this car, and diesel gas is less expensive than premium which the gasoline engine requires... and it gets better MPG... and has more torque... why do they even sell the gasoline engine?

hey buddy any modern BMW use premium fuel i live in chicago NW suburbs diesel is $1.9 when premium gas is $2.4 so think again

No glow plugs? Are you sure about that?

If you are turning while you back out, you can hit something on the front end

That's why I watch European reviews and not this fake news

How much costs this car now in 2017

This is a (European) 30d. The real 35d has a twin turbo setup and comes with 313 hp.

If you look at the options in settings you can turn that off. I hope you know that

Totally can't believe this is the only guy on youtube who has done any level of deep review of the 35d.... that just sucks.

Would you buy the bimmer used vs an Outback 3.6 Limited or Touring edition ??

My dad bought this car for 68,000 plus tax so it 70k bruh. But its such a good car!!! its awesome one the inside and it drives fantastic! This is a truly one of a kind car

That’s pretty amazing BMW designed a diesel without glowplugs! /s

Apparently you don't understand the efficiency and high performance of a diesel. And your impression of the sounds of one was embarrassing.

Correction, it does get better, the X5 50iXdrive. 445 hp. Now that is something to fall in love with.

Diesel means fast and economical? It just means a shit ton of torque and slow...

No glow plugs?? Umm k

A hansom SUV, thanks for the upload!

Do these requiere the Add-Blue liquid?

255 bhp. Yous sure the x5 you driving isnt a 30d? Didn't 35d only came with 286bhp

Would you say these are more or less reliable than the Touareg?

+Driving Sports TV where do you get these cars to review

Diesel is cheaper that premium gas, which the alternative engines require.

60.000$ is mad cheap in my country Denmark the base model x5 costs 175.000$ and thats the BASE model without any extra feuteres

Good coverage of review topics. Whiniest reviewer with unessential emotional antics included was unnecessary.

Not an informative review.

$60,000 and almost fully-loaded? I don't think so !!

diesel will last longer plus used one you can easly buy it for $28.000 ;) but its a bMW SO BRING MONEY WITH YOU TO MECHANIC LOL

It doesn't cost $60000 cockbra1n. They range from starting point of $69000-$74000.

Ok. I got nothing out of it. Gotta go watch some other review on it. Bummer

BMW require premium fuel not regular so diesel is cheaper than premium

Say good bye to the automatic carwash...the sensors and radar system will go crazy and potentially damage the suspension system!!

Who is this worst critic in the automotive industry!?

'its a diesel, so its pretty good on gas'

You have no imagination or your comment is plainly stupid. When in reverse you can hit something with your front bumper. For example when turning and reversing out of a tight parking space you can hit another car’s door. So it is a great idea that both front and back ultrasound sensors operate at the same time.

I just had to put a comment this guy did a terrible review. He said at the end that diesel is higher than petrol. Wrong diesel is way much cheaper than petrol and he also said that to who ever buys a $60,000 bmw is not to concerned about savng money. What a dillhole. But then again in the beggining of the video when he opened the sunroof he said "my kid's love that" apparently he has one so that makes a hypocrite!!

Sorry, terrible review

Rubbish guy U shout work in a car wash to wash the cars and don’t even drive it

happy rich white people! where are the black people reviews!

What a waste of time🙄

@Driving Sport, loved the video and I just subscribed to show support. Now please get a hair cut.. Thank u

You do still save money as the normal gas gets 20MPG this gets 31.

My fathers getting a 2015 xdrive3d with the M sport package, and in the test drive I noticed theres less room in the back seats compared to my 2008 Toyota kluger grande
