No 30D variant? The G01 X3 30D engine (6-cyl, 3.0L, 195kW 620Nm, 0-100 in 5.8s) is arguably BMW's most reliable engine. Also in X5 and X7, but more bulk/weight than in X3. None of the diesel rattle of the 4-cyl. My real world 6.1L/100 Km country, 9.2L city. No dramas after 6 years, so I will skip the G45.

Spot on with the "cooled" seats... and extra lumbar and adjustment. The remote start does help a lot in summer... No other ute has that on the key fob apart from my 10 year old VF I'm trading in ! And full time 4WD uses more fuel and wear and tear on the front dif.. i like to be able to chose 4WD when i want it.

The LED grille is so tacky. Imagine driving with that..

No 120v outlet? I find that pretty weak sauce for that price. 2 cig liters over a power port is disappointing

the rear looks atrocious. Reminds me of an old 1 series.

Fantastic review. I test drove the calligraphy trim and I was very impressed. Owning the Sonata N Line, which has the annoying 8 speed DCT (it's not smooth in heavy traffic), the new Santa Fe is significantly more refined in Hybrid form. I love the exterior and the interior is incredible.

Diesel van. This van looks good.

I can see the USB ports being an issue in the next year or two when stuff falls into them: dirt, debris, liquids, etc.

❤❤❤❤

Wow...that's the ugliest interior I've seen from bmw in a while

How much will fuel (now and projected) and servicing for the ICE and hybrid set you back over the year? Then how many years will the extra cost of the EV take to pay for itself in fuel and maintenance cost savings?

Is this full time 4WD or part time? Can you drive 4WD on sealed roads? Getting mixed I go from different reviews

I love the new design and I think the back looks awesome!

The beginning of Klauss…nice design, interior not so much

Can you turn off the safety at a touch of a button?

Oh no! I need to get the current one before they’re all gone.

Looks awesome 👍👍👍👍👑

Price 🤔

....SICK!

Terrible cartoony design 😐

This really should be 35k. MAYBE 40

I'm surprised theres no more 30i variant, that seems like the sweet spot for most people

Worst bmw ever

those hand gestures mean ?

No spare wheel is criminal, no wonder NRMA claiming getting 1000s calls for help with flat tyres over potholes..

The thing about fuel economy: Its on par with just about every non-hybrid out there by Honda and Toyota, + or - 1 mpg . Most car companies are dropping the fuel economy concerns on traditional engine drive trains and opting them for their hybrids, same with turbos. You get more HP and and better fuel economy without emission standard issues easily and people are more than happy to add $2k+ for it. Good by turbos and fuel economy improvements on all cars going forward with traditional engines (there's a reason why older cars did better here, but I won't bore ya)

Soft top manual better

Very pleased with the colourful interior, much-needed break from the dreaful blacks and greys. And oh, i like the third seat in front. We will definately use it for passengers🤩

Shoulda been the Taurus, looks more bull like

Probably as a turbo hybrid like Japan has not in expensive EV mode

Question- why do tradies default to a ute and then spend thousands adding canopies, locking toolboxes etc (making it more van like). Wouldn’t a van be the smarter choice?

I had the suspension upgrade done recently on my late 2023 diesel CX60 and it made a noticeable difference in the ride quality. Thank you, Mazda, for addressing the issue. The drive still feels sporty, but it can now also absorb unevenness on the roads like a luxury SUV should!

They should give more power to Pajero.

I like this video format ie visual overview and then sit down to give proper well stucture details and commentary.

I’ve had the Countryman S E Sport L3 since early April after 3 years with the F56 Cooper S E. I loved the hatch version and rarely drive more than 50 miles round trips so the hatch was perfectly acceptable for its range even in the coldest winters. Now I have 65kW usable - just made a 450 miles round trip with 2x18 minute charge stops, I would never have dreamed of doing that in the F56 Electric. The S E. Has a peak charging rate of 150kW DC and 11kW AC - it’s a pity in this day and age that 150kW is only held until about 43% then it tapers off quite quickly - surely the BMS could be programmed to hold peak speed to at least 60%? Otherwise it’s a lovely comfortable car to make long trips in and a great one for having a blast in on bendy country roads. Efficiency isn’t bad either as I’m averaging around 4.4miles/kWh at the moment, that raises another technical issue - why does it need to power both motors all the time - my 2023 D250 Defender manages to disengage the front drive above 28 mph but re-engages it if slippage of a wheel occurs or I want to welly it?

Who actually stores their car key in the car while driving ? Because you wear pants without pockets ?

Toyota is better more reliable

The Z06 at an exstra $140,000 seems a bit much. How much does is a better engine & breaks really cost.

Smaller than it looks, which is good. Functional & classy while staying under the proverbial radar. Brighter colours would be a bonus. How about testing while towing a caravan? Cheers

Do you turn down the radio when you are looking for a charging station for the EV? Does the plugin hybrid have a petrol or diesel engine?

Imagine range of EV when towing.

Hard to compete against much more affordable e-delivery7.

I think electric vans will change the Oz market away from diesel utes. They can’t compete off road (on weekends) but for a work rig superior.

Why do the Chinese make better products from re-engineered tooling of older generations of vans, Electric or Diesel minus the frivilous profit gouging bells and whistles that get claimed off a business tax write off for depreciation?

What a top of the range product

Thank you for trying to not talk like a robot this video 🫡👌🏼

I had the impression from a news item from about 7 or 8 years ago that the idea of “before onroad costs” had gone the way of car ashtrays. Why do we continue with this antique method of not-so-stealthy added cost? Do other markets elsewhere on the planet do it? I don’t get it…

The previous one has better proportions…

Just another rolling iPad lol. Looks crap. Give us at LEAST physical AC controls!!!

Yey cloth seats
