The first BMW i5 and the new BMW Series 5

The BMW Series 5 stands as the epitome of a sporty yet comfortable business-class sedan. These cars merge the current equipment options with dynamic driving characteristics facilitated by perfectly coordinated suspensions and powerful, efficient engines. An elegant appearance ensures a fitting presence in any setting.

More dynamic than ever, featuring numerous digital innovations, and for the first time, full electric propulsion - this is the new BMW Series 5 Sedan. As the BMW i5, this new edition of the world's most successful business sedan leads the way towards sustainable premium mobility in the upper mid-range vehicle segment. Continuous electrification, the advanced BMW curved display, the "QuickSelect" control system, new digital services, and increased sustainability throughout the product's entire life cycle mark the progress in future-oriented domains that are of central importance in BMW Group's current transformation.
A clear and reduced design language accentuates the elegance and sporty presence of the new Series 5 Sedan. Compared to its predecessor, the new edition has grown by 97 millimeters in length to 5,060 millimeters, in width by 32 millimeters to 1,900 millimeters, and in height by 36 millimeters to 1,515 millimeters. Its wheelbase was extended by 20 millimeters to 2,995 millimeters.

The dynamic character of the new BMW Series 5 Sedan can be further enhanced with the M Sport package, the M Sport Pro package, and the M Carbon exterior package. The paint range already includes three BMW Individual finishes at market launch.
The BMW Series 5 Sedan's hallmark balance between maximum sportiness and high-level long-distance comfort is enhanced again in the new edition. The longest wheelbase in the upper mid-range vehicle segment, increased track widths at the front and rear, an almost perfectly balanced axle load ratio with a 50:50 distribution, intelligent lightweight construction, and increased rigidity of the body-shell and chassis connections all play a part.

A significantly expanded range of systems for semi-automated driving and parking is available as standard or optional for the new BMW Series 5 Sedan. An innovative technology kit creates the conditions for their standout functionality.
The highlight of the range is the Driving Assistant Professional, which includes lane direction assistance and lane control along with distance control featuring a Stop & Go function. In a world-first, the system in the new BMW Series 5 now also incorporates Active Lane Change Assistant with eye confirmation. This comfort feature achieves a new level of driver-vehicle interaction. The vehicle suggests a lane change, and for the first time, it can be executed by just glancing at the external mirror to confirm the lane change. The Active Lane Change Assistant then automatically performs the necessary steering movements, provided the traffic situation allows.
