It is no stranger how the 5 series have never failed to garner the attraction since the F10 era. Starting with elegance is that long car body with that signature front grille to bring out the identity of BMW.
The sports factor would be that 20" Aerodynamic wheels which is lighter and saves you that hassle to change the stock rims for those aftermarket forged rims for a lightweight drive. This is a well thought concept as the driving experience packs a bag of comfort and smooth cornering. Color selection is worth commending with a good range of dark colors and 4 colors upholstery vegan leather seats(with my preferred red) should be highly sought after.
The fuel consumption is rather decent on local roads driving for a day and clocked in 12km/l, but was able to get beyond 15.1km/h during the long drive in US.
The main attention would be the drivers seat with a long stretch of screen panel that combines both infotainment and the driver dashboard. The noticeable details in the car would be the limited buttons and the vent buttons are positioned right below the dashboard, and another interesting feature would be the internal camera which act as a 360 coverage of your car.
The overall trim and interaction bar is worth a mention as the 5 series has gotten the 7 series built up, making sure this 5 series is a bang for buck.

Driven 2 months G60 (520i) model so far so good. Fuel consumption is up to expectation. Quiet and easy to handle. High Tech features and luv the handling. Latest 8.5 version iDrive user friendly.

The BMW 5 Series has a new exterior and comes with plenty of screens in the cabin. And its still has all the bits that make it fun to drive underneath.

The BMW 5 Series has grown and become all angular - but is it the executive sedan for the eager driver?

Went to the recent launch of the 5 and i5 in Sentosa recently. Was not able to submit review due to some glitches.
First looks of the exterior is a WOW factor with longer wheelbase, the embossed 5 at the backdoor, giving it a distinct look that you are definately looking at a 5 series.
Interior was almost a replica to the 7 series which there is a 12 inches curved screem as dashboard that is a curved touched screen too. You can do many customizations to suit your mood and driving needs.
Inside there is a new gadget which is the interior camera for selfie purpose or not really sure why its given this gadget too.
Driving it was a SHEER DRIVING PLEASURE as its slogan says, with 310nM torque in it which is adequate for this large mid sized sedan.
Though did not get to try the revving of SPORTS mode as there is a speed limit at the event, you can feel the car pushing you to go more for it.
Overall, this is a breakthrough to the new 5 that can captivate your choices against other premium models.
