The reimagined 2017 BMW 5 Series takes on a new exterior design with reduced weight and an endless platter of new technology features, making it an intimidating competitor in the midsize luxury sedan class.

The 5-Series is one of BMW's bestselling models and has been around since 1972. In that time it's had a lot of opportunities to be perfected, which is why U.S. News and World Report ranks it number two of ten in the luxury midsize category. Its plethora of new features and technology advancements are just two of the standout improvements in the 2017 model. While it's still a performance vehicle, it's also a seasoned cruiser, showing out on long distance rides while its suspension absorbs every bump in the road.

The 5 Series is available in a luxury sedan, Gran Turismo hatchback, 530e plug-in hybrid, and a more potent M550i model. Two engines are available: a 2.0-liter turbo-four with 248 horsepower, or a 3.0-liter turbo I-6 producing 335 horsepower. The interior's refined and understated design comes with a lot of high-end materials, especially when you opt for multicontour or massaging seats.

BMW also introduced their new iDrive multimedia system with a reconfigurable 10.3-inch touchscreen with hand gesture control. A head-up display, two options premium audio systems, Apple CarPlay integration, navigation, a 360-degree view camera system, and automated parking assist are also some of the highly-coveted features.
