It is a mixture of technology, sophistication, and performance that go far ahead than others in the same league. This executive sedan comes with bi-xenon headlights and newly designed taillights that redefine and impose its majestic presence on the road.

Features like the iDrive and the redesigned interior along with automatic transmission redefine the experience of driving in a car such as the BMW 5 series.

It comes with sun roof facility with an options facility of power seats. Its interiors are greatly designed with Dakota leather, great front seats, electrical adjustments, memory function, and an array of comfort systems.

The exteriors present a height of standards reflecting superb dynamics, spending functionality and convergence of style. The BMW 5 series comes with a long wheelbase along with rear wheel drive.
