BMW 5 Series Saloon Review
For many years, BMW’s 5 Series has been an obvious choice for someone in the market for an executive, premium saloon.
The 5 Series from BMW is a vehicle with the perfect blend of luxury, economy and performance. It’s a serial ‘car of the year’ award winner, too, particularly in ‘company car’ categories.
The BMW 5 Series Saloon was updated and relaunched in 2023 - at a point when the all-electric BMW i5 joined the line-up, too.
As ever, the 5 Series Saloon remains a close rival to the Audi A6 and the Jaguar XF, and there’s a powertrain to suit different lease customers. Read more
The 520i petrol engine, which is supported by mild-hybrid technology, is sure to be popular and has power of 208 hp. It will accelerate from 0-62mph in 7.5 seconds while also returning around 47 miles to the gallon.
A plug-in hybrid powertrain is also available, which has a range of up to 62 miles using electricity alone alongside exceptional fuel economy. If you’re a business lease customer looking for a company car, the plug-in hybrid BMW 5 Series will help to lower your Benefit in Kind (BIK) tax burden.
The 5 Series’ refresh in 2023 saw the car growing in size compared with previous models, which translates to added interior space. An ‘athletic’ new stance is also new, while Sport steering and directly controlled wheel slip limitation cements BMW’s reputation for fine handling.
You can expect a large 12.3-inch Information Display and a 14.9-inch Control Display, as well as a flat-bottomed steering wheel in the cabin.
The BMW 5 Series Saloon also comes with a wealth of driver assistance and safety systems as standard.

For many years, BMW’s 5 Series has been an obvious choice for someone in the market for an executive, premium saloon.
BMW has given the new 5 Series petrol, electric, and now plug-in hybrid power, but will the ‘bit of both’ models prove more appealing than their stablemates?

From the first time I contacted Ryan, he kept me informed.
Excellent service throughout the process. Sophia was great and always available. The portal makes the steps clear. There was a slight confusion on the day of delivery from the manufacturer and Sophia assisted immediately. Would recommend.
Very smooth procedure. Good advice from Richard (our 4th car from him) - always quick to respond & helps us find the right car at the right price.
