Damn. At first I was VERY skeptical of this design, but as more reviews come in, I am literally falling in love with it. This is a very sharp-looking 5 Series and those rear lights are absolutely gorgeous. The only issue I have (which I am slowly warming up to) is how "tall" it looks. I can’t help but notice its height. However, this is such a brilliant review and I love those Iconic Sounds. I wonder what kind of wizardry did they use to make those sounds match with acceleration and deceleration. This is truly remarkable. I think its the best-looking EV.

@bmwblog 9 ай бұрын

The height unfortunately has to do with the battery packs. All EVs sit higher to the ground.

Good review, I’m clarified since i saw the comparison between the i5 40 vs the 530i but… also I think that 530e should be put on comparison test vs the I5, in this case de 40… However there’s is one think in this review that I don’t think is logic, to choose between the i5 40 or i5 m60. It doesn’t make much sense. Man the price is very different between both i5’s so you have there your answer very quickly…

@gothmog2441 10 ай бұрын

I got an i4 M50 over a Tesla M3P … advantages for me were proper hatchback and HUD, features just not available on the Tesla. Both perform excellently. My two prior cars were both Tesla model S … and iDrive, although good, does not compare to the Tesla software offering. Of course, if buying a new M3 Highland you would have to be prepared to manage without indicator or windscreen washer stalks… Because I’ve been driving EVs for seven years, I wasn’t so concerned going outside the Tesla charging network: I knew what I was getting into not having the Tesla holding my hand and finding the next charger for me, and thus far I’ve managed without that assistance. But if you are new to EVs the Tesla charging network and car integration is a major advantage.

@bmwblog 10 ай бұрын

This is why I'm hoping one day BMW will adopt the Tesla charging port so it can use that network

Why the interaction bar ( the ambient light bar) is not the same in diesel as in the electric version? Why is not the same? That is not fair at all. It is very disappointing. If they offer same design for every type of engine, then why are they doing this? Can you ask BMW headquarter if the diesel version can have the same interaction bar like in i5?

@@AndreiGonzalesDesign soon model 3 will have interior lighting and cooling seats :) and for the price difference you can change interior to a leather one with ventilation, add massage and still have money to buy a slightly used toyota corolla. Model 3 performance has good brakes and good handling overall. And, frankly speaking, iDrive 8/8.5 and new dash is sooo ugly, I would prefer the Tesla implementation. Again, this is not apple to apple comparison, but if you want a performance car for a much less budget and quicker, there are options available.

@AndreiGonzalesDesign 10 ай бұрын

@@mlurkers I think you need to own a BMW to understand, as spec sheets don’t tell the whole story. Every car maker will build to their price point, so things like adaptive dampers and advanced suspension options are examples of where Tesla will compromise to meet their price target. In that sense, I would compare the 5 to the Model S, not the Model 3. Additionally, the upcoming Neue Klasse dedicated EV platform will be a better comparison. This BMW is still a transition product. Teslas are at a lower price point for a reason. You always get what you pay for. Just like comparing a 7 series to a Rolls Royce, there are levels to these things.

@mlurkers 10 ай бұрын

@@AndreiGonzalesDesign I have g05 x5 45e and just sold 330e my23 with a new dash, driven other BMWs in the past several yeras, also had tesla model 3 and driven model Y for some time, so I understand the difference to some extent. My point is different - M cars are ultimate performance driving machines etc. and priced accordingly. That must be rather upsetting when a much cheaper model 3 is overall quicker & faster and doesn't handle terrible and may be even on the same level (I obviously have no way to compare at this point, but soon i5ms will be available for test drives).

@AndreiGonzalesDesign 10 ай бұрын

@@mlurkers I don’t know if anyone that drives the M or even M sport cars would be upset. The Tesla cars are fine daily cars that can go quick in a straight line for sure, but I wouldn’t trust it at sustained speeds on a mountain road. If I wanted a car that can switch between comfy to sport (or track) when I feel like it, and make me feel good when I sit in it, that’s currently not something Tesla offers (not sure if the Model S has good suspension). Tesla does a lot of things well, but also compromises on others. Personally, I feel it compromises on what a car needs to have great balanced performance, but does well on what a normal commuter product should have.

BMW EVs are unfortunately couldn't compete with Mercedes and Audi in terms of performance. Over $100K for a car that does 0-60 in 3.8 seconds LOL. Imagine the EQE AMG will piss on this in terms of performance. It is really sad to see this. All ICE BMW cars used to kill the competition in the last couple of years. But, for the electric cars, it is totally a different story. Even Kia is now superior to BMW.

LOL you think bmw wants the best 0-60 time for the price compared to the competition? If you really only care about that get a model 3 performance or tesla model s plaid. That is similar to the audis and mercedes but way faster. Bmw is trying to offer their evs like their sporty, fun to drive ice cars. Mercedes and audi evs feel very unnatural and doesnt handle well.

@Marshmallo_Soup 10 ай бұрын

Why the obsession with 0-60 times. It’s only one aspect of performance cars and 3.8 seconds is already silly to have on a car for public roads.

@user-xx8sg3wr7g 9 ай бұрын

Most BMW buyers are not really that obsessed by a few more 10th's in drag racing. Your never going to get to Plaid numbers with a real, luxury level car. 3.7 is stupid fast compared to just a few years ago. It matches/beats the previous M550.

it's cheaper for a reason .. u people make 0 sense. U get 0 luxury in a tesla and they cut corners to make their profit margins as much as possible. Think about this. The tesla model s plaid was 140-160k last year and now in one year it's 60k used and 89k new. That's historic depreciation. It obviously was never even worth 100k with what's used to make it. If they can make a profit off selling it new for 89k who knows what it actually cost to make 😂 they use the lowest grade shit. It'd basically an ipad on wheels. Nothing feels special about being in or seeing a tesla. They are dull and plain jane. Tesla uses "minimalistic" design as an excuse to drive profit margins up. Elon and tesla do anything they can fo fool their audience. Obv his ego got hurt that the taycan beat it around a track so he used f1 supercar tires that no production car comes with 😂 tesla also recieved a lawsuit recently for lying about the range estimates their cars..
