The New BMW 5-Series
The dashboard is driver oriented which guarantees an unique driving experience, which is definitive for a BMW. The interior features an elegant design and has certain similarities with the 7-series. Transmission options include the new, 8-speed BMW automatic transmission as well as the standard 6-speed manual gearbox.
The 6-cylinder diesel engines offer 258 hp for the 530d and 204 hp for the 525d BMW. The most efficient is the 4-cylinder turbo-diesel which powers the 520d and promises a fuel consumption of 5 liters per 100 kilometers while offering 184 hp. The most powerful is the 8-cylinder engine which will power the BMW 550i and benefits from BMW's TwinPower Turbo and High Precision Injection technologies for a maximum power of 407 hp. The new 5-series offers a wide range of engine options, such as the 8-cylinder engine, three 6-cylinder gasoline engines, two diesel engines and one turbo-diesel 4-cylinder engine.
The design is classic, elegant and dynamic at the same time and it looks like it's inspired from the famous 5-series E39 model of the 90's which some say it's the most loved and appreciated 5-series generation. At first sight, you can't help notice that the new 5-series BMW has a much better design that the previous generation 5-series. The new BMW 5-series (BMW F10) aims to change or better yet - revolutionize the limousine sedan concept.
