Great review and you hit the nail on the head. I ordered a 2020 X5 in Sept 2019 and when the 2020 X6 came out, I had to have one so I traded in for it and love it. Mine is fully loaded with everything including cooling and massaging seats, alcantara headliner and 22" wheels. It's a shame that you can't get the fog lights anymore because I use them all the time at night. I have the B&W stereo which was an expense but the H&K is sufficient. The in-line 6 is pretty powerful so I agree, there is no need for the V8. Someone said you don't buy an X6 because you need one, but because you want one and I totally agree. Get the X5 if you have a small family, but if not go for the X6.

That was a fantastic car review! I was so curious how quiet the ride was going to be,,even with that zippy V6 and custom exhaust its still very quiet in comfort mode and thats what i wanted to hear...very detailed review,good job man..

Appreciate the kind words! BMW really has perfected the luxury/sport blend with this X5/X6 platform, even with the 22" wheels! Minimal road noise, even without the dual pane windows. Exhaust produces a very subtle growl on these not intrusive at all. Thanks for all the feedback and for watching !

Great review, will be getting a white X6 40i with the performance body kit.

Used to own one of these and loved it. My only issue is the size of the wheel wells...huge.

Fully agreed, it's a great all arounder with style. It drove so well!! The wheel well size is what makes the 22's (to us!) an absolute must on these, and the ride quality was still sublime. These look goofy on the 20s! Thanks for watching!!

Hi have a question On the front or you have fog, lights cut out with out fog lights Does that mean you can put them if you want? If yes because of cut out is there a wiring there all ready when you decide to put them fog light or nothing there where you need fog light and wiring done ?

@thedesertroad

Жыл бұрын

I don't believe you can actively insert them after and there is no wiring there. Fog lights were left out on the newer models due to part shortages. Thanks for watching !

Nice vid bro. Which would you choose of this x6, audi q8, and porsche cayenne ( regular no coupe out of price range) and why

@thedesertroad

Жыл бұрын

I'd take this X6 - this offers the perfect balance of price/sport/luxury and looking unique in the process. The 40i doesn't break the bank but sounds great (with the m sport package/exhaust) - and overall feels very premium in this segment. Q8 and Cayenne are very MEH to me although both great cars in their own right.

i drove both .. and u notice A HUGE difference. in the x5 you have sooooo much more space in the front seats. the x6 is like driving an M4 from the space u feel

@thedesertroad

Жыл бұрын

The X6 felt like the tighter car when driving and looking out the front (due to the stronger rake of the windshield) or the back (due to the sloped roofline). Both of these contribute to a lower visibility. Having said that, the feeling we got from just sitting in the front seats was very similar to the X5 due to the similar ergonomics of the interior as well as the two cars having nearly the same length, width, and ride height (view of the road). Thanks for watching!

I think X5 are great but the bulbous 2/3 of the SUV just scream "UTILITY!" X6 are more car like, more streamlined. I want to know what you think is the most luxurious and best handling one? Regular X5 or X6?

@thedesertroad

Жыл бұрын

From seat impressions the X6 felt like the more 'upscale' car. Maybe it's because of the more unique (exotic) shape, or the fact that X6 offers leather options (only fake leather on current 2023 X5) - but X6 felt like a more premium product. Also I felt like handling was better in the X6 but just might be my perception! Thanks for watching!!!

Both X5 and X6 of this generation look great. But X5 looks more masculine in my opinion, especially with all black appearance. The coupe suv look of X6 is a bit controversial, some like it and some hate it (watched several youtube reviews that state they dislike the look of X6), but i think it still look good (not as manly as X5 though)

@@tomcat6933 There are few cars that do it much better all around then the 40i X5. Really a great all in one. Roomy, comfortable, quick, reliable, some resemblance of sport. On a smaller SUV side I'm a huge fan of the Q5 line for a daily (I personally own an SQ5). If you are into sedans, I like the S4 and M340i (just finished review on that) for great all around dailies (we owned several S4s for years). Clearly I have a thing for german cars - but for all around great performers those are tough to beat. I mostly look for a great daily car, with some sport and emotion built into it (which all of those check). Never looked into trucks, and not sure if there will be many on this channel. Thanks!
