BMW X5 30D M-Sport G05 - POV drive and review in 4K

The king of mid-luxury SUV - the new Bmw X5 30d M-Sport has it all - a powerful 200kw engine, a smooth ZF 8 speed gearbox, luxury interior and a great ride. But is it better than a Mercedes GLE? Maybe a Audi Q7?

See what i think of the 2019 X5 - although the same will also work for the 2020 and 2021 modelyear cars and be relevant also for the different engines - the 40d, the 40e, X5M etc.
