BMW 5 Series LWB to be launched on July 24 in India, bookings open
BMW has officially started bookings for the new generation 5 Series in India, with launch scheduled for July 24th. This marks the first time that the 5 Series will be offered in a Long Wheelbase version in the Indian market.
The eighth generation 5 Series can currently be reserved in a single variant: the 530Li M Sport LWB. Potential buyers have the option to choose between two exterior paint finishes – M Carbon Black Metallic and Sparkling Copper Gray Metallic. In addition, the model offers the option between 18-inch monochromatic wheels and 19-inch bicolor wheels. BMW has also introduced Titanium Bronze and Satinated Aluminum finish options for greater customization.
The 2024 BMW 5 Series LWB features several notable design improvements. The front end features a larger iteration of BMW’s signature kidney grille, flanked by curved LED daytime running lights integrated into the LED headlights. Black inserts on both sides of the bumper, ‘M’ badging on the front fender, recessed door handles, ‘5’ badging on the C-pillar and stylish wraparound LED taillights add to the vehicle’s updated aesthetics.
Inside, the new 5 Series aims to rival the Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB with a host of features. The dashboard houses a curved dual-screen layout, which includes a 14.9-inch infotainment system and a 12.3-inch driver display. Other interior highlights include a panoramic sunroof, four-zone climate control, reclining rear seats, ADAS level 2 suite, USB Type-C charging ports and ventilated and electrically adjustable front seats.
Under the hood, the new-generation 5 Series is expected to be powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. A 2.0-liter four-cylinder diesel engine is expected to be available shortly after the initial launch. BMW is also expected to offer a mild hybrid system to complement these engines.
