BMW 5 SERIES

Which BMW 5 Series Is Ideal for You?

The BMW 5 Series is a classic executive car manufactured by BMW since 1972 and is currently in its 8th generation (BMW G6). 

Just behind the BMW 3 Series, the 5 Series is BMW's second best-selling model and is available as a Saloon, Estate, or an ‘M’ Series sports car. All BMW 5 Series trims come as a four-door. This includes the BMW 5 Series Saloon and Touring body styles.

The cars in the 5 Series have always been known for their high power and fuel efficiency, as well as their advanced safety features and technology. Now, the series includes a PHEV plug-in hybrid and the fully electric i5 to expand its eco-friendly options further.

Highlights of the 2023 5 Series include a new front apron and emphasised kidney grille with “Iconic Glow”. Plus, a new modern and functional interior. The powertrains are all mild hybrid with the ability to recoup kinetic energy during braking and deceleration. 

Adaptive suspension allows adjusting the car’s characteristics to suit any driving condition. The characteristic rear-wheel drive associated with BMWs can be upgraded to the xDrive, giving you an all-wheel drive option.

BMW's G60 5 Series has the latest iDrive 8.5 infotainment system powered by Linux software. The interface can be conveniently accessed through the BMW Curved Display, which seamlessly combines a 12.3 instrument cluster and a 14.9-inch infotainment system. It also includes a new touch interface, all in one sleek unit.

The BMW Interaction Bar is an add-on for base models and standards on the i5. It has touch-sensitive controls for air conditioning, hazard lights, and an illuminated control panel across the dashboard and front doors.

The G60 5 Series is now leather-free with Alcantara-wrapped seats and a steering wheel. Sporty seats are standard, while multi-contour seats come with the i5 M60 and can be added to other models.

Here’s what you can expect from our diverse BMW 5 Series car leasing range.
