The 2024 BMW 5 Series Is Still Great With A Gas Engine: First Drive Review
The electric i5 gets all the attention, but there’s lots to love about the ICE model.
Built on the same platform as the electric i5, the standard gas 5 Series is still alive and kicking for 2024 - and it's pretty excellent. With a new range of powertrain options starting at the base model and moving up to the 540i and M trims, the ICE 5er is still an excellent mid-size sedan for those who aren't ready to go electric.
If you want to read about the BMW 540i and its slick new inline-six, though, you’ll have to wait; BMW only offered me keys to the base 530i. The 530i and its new turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with a 48-volt mild-hybrid assist will be the volume seller of the gas-powered range. That gives the base 5er an extra boost to 255 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque - seven more horses than the outgoing model and 37 additional lb-ft.
The new powertrain is ultra-efficient. The 530i gets 27 miles per gallon in the city, 35 on the highway, and 30 combined. That's two mpg better in every category than the outgoing 5 Series, and right up there with notorious fuel-sippers like the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry, both with 32 mpg combined.
Granted, the focus on efficiency does sacrifice speediness. But for most buyers, the 530i still has enough oomph for hurrying away from a stoplight or around an onramp thanks to that extra electric kick off the line. It takes 5.8 seconds for the 530i to reach 60 miles per hour - perfectly adequate, and equal to the base i5.
Most 530i drivers won't be too concerned with 0 to 60 times - that’s what the M-badged versions are for. Where the base 5 Series feels most at home is on the highway. Cruising down I-85 near Greenville at 70 mph, the engine settles to a nearly silent rumble and the 48-volt system still offers enough torque for seamless overtakes.
This car is exceptionally quiet at these speeds. The interior of the 5 Series can best be described as "evolved." Most of the fits, finishes, and features carry over from other BMW models, but with thoughtful updates that add to the upscale atmosphere. There's a new center console with a tiny glass shifter, a matching infotainment dial, and other various controls that emulate the iX SUV, but with gloss black fixtures instead of fancy matte wood.
The center touchscreen and digital cluster are now bigger than before - and standard - measuring 12.3 inches and 14.9 inches respectively. The latest BMW iDrive 8.5 infotainment display is projected atop both screens, and it offers a seamless experience with crisp graphics and boxes arranged neatly in a smooth-scrolling home screen. Things get messy when you start digging deep into the options - and there are many - but nothing that a "Hey, BMW" voice assistant can't help with. Just say something like "I'm cold," and the system bumps up the temperature to something toastier.
Once I'm off the highway and onto some of the moderately twisty roads around Greenville, the 5 Series shows more signs of life. Unlike the i5 with its complicated (but necessary) anti-active-roll, self-leveling, air-ride suspension, the 530i keeps things simple. It has a good ol' double-wishbone front and five-link rear setup with the optional M Sport suspension on this car giving it more aggressive dampers.
I'm pleasantly surprised putting the 530i into the first corner. The power steering is excellent, with a lovely heft and a good amount of feedback to tell you exactly what this big-bodied sedan is doing. There's some body roll, sure - the new 5 Series is longer and wider than the previous car, after all - but the suspension is wonderfully balanced and does an excellent job of keeping lateral movements in moderation.
The 5 Series experience as a whole is genuinely pleasant. The ride is quiet, the suspension is composed, and while it certainly isn't the most powerful thing in the world, the electrified powertrain doles out low-end torque with decent purpose.
The 530i starts at $58,895 (with destination) if you go for the rear-drive model, while the all-wheel-drive version starts at $61,195. That’s firmly in line with the $58,990 Audi A6, and should be close to the new Mercedes-Benz E-Class when pricing for that model is officially announced.
So if you’re not ready to get into the electric i5, that’s fine. BMW’s gas 5 Series is still an excellent option.

Even though they have taken the design in an entirely different direction, it’s still an extremely well built sedan.
See Imma be honest, tell me if you think I am wrong, THEY RUINED IT
No your wrong you have to see in person. Is sexy
You’re wrong. These are going to sell like iPhones
Elle est moche sérieux ça se vendra vu c est comme iphone😅
Tell us how you think they ruined it
The interior?😊
BMW is always fun to drive, have all types X1, 520i and X5.. All is unique..
Inside, BMW has lost the most important thing - architecture, beauty and recognition. It was a BRAND. Now this electronic something looks exactly the same as on any modern Chinese car and is no different from it.
Previous gen looks way2 better than this
This looks awful
The interior is atrocious. How are you supposed to find any of those ridiculous buttons while driving, while blinded by all those whirly swirly LEDs
Think it looks like a big bulky bmw muscle car. Personally cant wait for the m5. Itll be insane. This thing has presence. The thing with bmws is u can tell they are new audi and merc u cant tell if its a 2017 model or brand new. Thats not good
@@G82Watts i dont mind bulky muscle cars , problem is this design has weird shape , the 5 series has always looked great until this version arrived , same goes with the 2 series and the XM , merc even if u cant tell from 2017 version still looks decent enough , except the eq ( sedan series ) , same goes with audi
Oh just beautiful BMW
Это я, опять смотрю на автомобили, которые никогда не смогу позволить себе
Почему не сможешь?? Уверен, что сможешь. Главное к этому стремиться. И все у тебя получится!!!
Да ладно скоро у нас будет курс 1рубль за 300 долларов вот тогда и купишь не напрягаясь.....одной зарплаты хватит на тачку...
Witam. Czemu w tym 2.0 diesle jest listwa oświetlania wewnątrz „3D” dedykowana do auta elektrycznego?
They ruined the 5 series which used to be the most beautiful iconic car in the world with sharp angels which have no harmony!
내말이.
Best Bremer ever
@@samabdelaziz9784 how ?
👍
2017 - 2020 are the best 5 Series
ok this is a luxury car correct and while it looks great did he really have to pull out and push back in the hamstring support on the seat? All the features in this car and you have to manually pull out the hamstring support? at 5:20 for reference point.
Wow I like the rims and the interior.
Stunning car!
First feeling on the back is that it looks similar to a vw Passat
you mean ugly like a passat and these black rear corners so high 🤮🤮 never seen such an ugly 5 series what is that? 🤮🤮🤮🤮
They made more side glass area for rear passanger👍🏻👍🏻
Hello, why does this 2.0 diesel have a "3D" interior lighting strip dedicated to an electric car?
I'm not sure if the back of the car is more like Passat or Camry. Terrible
the lines and designs of bmw after 2020 after toyota joined its destroyed rhey look rediciliously ugly the outside designs the lines the lights everything is more a toyota then a real BMW and these toucscreen tablets stuck on the dashboard like they dont belong there ugly why not integrating it the dashboard and leave the tacho and rpm and these analog and made only multimedia screens and so on. they are making them, worse every year. these new % series 2024 is extremly never seen such a bad looking 5 series ever. the lights front and thge nose of the car is weird and ugly the rear lights are stolen from a toyota camry and are not looking in anyway like a bmw the side lines of the cart ugly the rear end extreme ugly and these black corners on left and right so high up . i love BMW from young age. But from 2020 i like only extremely small percentage of them. and one more thing that i dont like on these new cars almost every car no matter what u buy has a 4 zylnder but the price is higher and higher for the same engine just a litllwe more oppened up, these engines will not last long and to me everything is just a scam.... they are not worth the money they are asking for them anymore. they are saving on alot of things in production but they try to sell them even higher then ever before just a big scam that ios going on in the car industrie and these electric and hybridy is a scam to. not worth the money at all and evem more toxic to the planet then normal cars. we need big changes bmw needs to change the designer these are not looking bmw anymore they look like 5 cars mixed together in to a new crap car theat has light from these front from these rerar from these and so on it has no character anymore it looks like shit... iam very dissapointed on BMW the last 4 years.... Terrible car i dont see what people see in these terrible design iam almost puking everytime i see it on the streets. when people ask me why you look like au wanna puke i just tell them ive seen the new 5 series 🤮🤮 in real life is even worse.
welcome to this world Camry... ooops...BMW 5
2024 I Wish the 7-Series Had the Same Front Grill as the 5-Series.
У меня была Лада Калина, по всем характеристикам меня устраивала, но думаю сейчас приобретать эту модель, она немного комфортнее😂😂😂
Лада никогда не догонит Бмв 😂
Ну….совсем чуть чуть покомфортнее будет, да 🤭🤭🤭
Who will fix it if something will brake?
Механический подпор коленок дешёвый пластик виден невооружённым глазом даааааа😂😂😂😂
Фантастика! It's my dream. BMW 5 G60 is the best sedan in the world.
Właśnie tak czeka na mnie ❤❤❤
This is the coolest new version of a German mid-size luxury sedan I've ever seen. Take that, Mercedes! No offense, but I still trust BMW.
Yeah, you got it 👍
*Mercedes doesn't care. They still sell*
Beautiful 😍!
@@klutch...exactly Mercedes still Mercedes no matter what out there …
I own a Merc but I buy whichever car I like. At this day and age I don’t believe in brand loyalty. By the looks at it China is making cars that many known brands looks average these days.
Очень круто! Я люблю BMW ❤
Просто автомобиль...о красоте и речи быть не может
ที่ล็อคกันเด็กเป็ดโดยไม่ตั้งใจด้วยระบบไฟฟ้า รายละเอียดไม่ทราบ ชอบรถครับคุณ
BMWs are looking more like Japanese cars than Japanese cars.
BMW have gone the fake exhaust option very disappointed
whats the paint colour please
The rear doesn't look right.
At all
@@chiefearnest1450 and the range is piss poor. What were they thinking?
Love the mercs beautiful to drive thinking of purchase but eyes on the peugot and audi and lexus
Lo unico que le falta a este auto para ser perfecto es la gran parrilla del serie 4 gran coupe 😊
Door step is empty doesnt have lighting, and speedometer / infotainment screen like copy from merc concept. 😢
Реально преемник е60 кузова!
BMW never stops to make the finest products, this is the best 5 series ever built.
2017 - 2020 were the best 5 Series; this just has all the new gimmicks.

Like so much with Alloy wheel design
Inside is nice but the exterior is terrible. The back is very bad. The back looks like an old e class
Teşekkürler CAR TV✌️
Dzieło sztuki ! Jest piękny .
The music in these video sounds like a funeral
My favourite version of the 5 is the E39. I think it's timeless. Then Chris Bangle came. Is he back at BMW from Mercedes Benz.....because I see his type of styling in this models lights?
I hated the E60. But the car has aged gracefully I have to admit.
@@TonyStone3000 lol he really messed up the 5 series with the E60.
He's doing the same at Mercedes Benz, outliving his fetish for ugly headlights😂
I'm not sure I like the 'piano black' plastic on the exterior.....maybe it'll grow on me.....
Hated it since they added it all over the new 7 series.
You buy yourself a bmw, and then,immediately, you have to replace timing chain!😂😂😂 HAHAHA
I have owned 4 5 series. Never had any problem with timing chains. My last two (530i and 535d ) covered more than 100,000 miles each
@Mikeecol 😂 Look,buddy,it's well know FACT every Bmw have timing chain issues!
Just ordered an i5 after driving the dealer's car. Brillant car.
It will run great for three years and then break down like the rest of the BMW lineup.
ما شاء الله
شغل تشخيص ❤❤❤
Là nuova classe E mercedes è stilisticamente molto più armoniosa e bella, le ultime bmw sembrano uscite dalla saga trasformers
Beautiful crease lines that but won't appeal to everyone's taste. In true sense, BMW has lost a lot of lot with its design language...
What color is that? Thx
I believe Oxide Grey v2
سياره جميله
It is like a Camry
My daughter just got this car it's gorgeous, the wave the finger to turn up volume is cool
For children it’s nice, I never use it
Дочь великолепна, или авто?😅
Среднего класса? Или для среднего класса?
Шестой год езжу на бмв 5 серии и уверенно говорю что это лучшее из того что у меня было, но после обзоров некоторых китайских брендов, дизайны интерьеров и экстерьеров и китайцев лучше
Согласен, они уже по всем показателям обходят современные немецкие и японские карикатуры.
What color is this bmw? Looks nice.
ملكة جمال السيارات ❤❤❤
Xin chào hãng xe BMW. Cảm ơn hãng xe BMW nhiều nha
What color is this?
ugly car color
showing a low extra, low engine model, and all you do is touching the inside.. get a job !
MIttelklasse? Wenn dann obere Mittelklasse oder auch Oberklasse (7er ist Luxusklasse).
New BMW 5... Bold, modern, yet sleek and elegant. True, sporty look has been transposed to more luxurious one. But it remains as beautiful and desirable as ever.
Салон кондовый, цветовое решение неприятное, дизайнеры интерьера немного "зазвездились".
It’s a beautiful car, but I’m not adjusting the thigh support with my hands
Then you opt confort seats,these are the standard seats.
Face = Solaris , down = corolla
JE L ' APPELERAIS NAVETTE SPACIAL ❤❤❤
Worthless, soulless now without a clutch pedal
NICE CAR
I am afraid style dors not belong to the list of extras for this car..
앞에그릴이 크지않아서 좋으네 잘나왔어
그릴이 너무커서 보기싫더니
Super Stunning..
Und warum so ein desaströses Design???
Previus was much much better
Я очень люблю bmw сам езжу на bmw , но мерседес новый сделал панель приборов намного лучше.
Wow, E-class had this big screens in 2016 hahah
Hayalimdeki araba. Ama sadece hayalimde . . . . .
Все таки, как же Китаю далеко до большой тройки. Спасибо за видео. 👍👍👍
Danke, ich bekomme ihn am Mittwoch 😊
ich kotze wenn ich dieses hessliche ding sehe dass ist kein bmw 🤮🤮
This car looks just like a Kia Korean car from outside and inside.
God👀 pls one day!🙏🏾
Looks like realy expensive Skoda
после китайцев даже Бэха не удивляет ))))
afschuwelijk dashbord, ik vind BMW echt mooi maar dat dashbord nee, het word een Volvo V60 Polar Enginered
스포츠 프로오너인데 준대형아닌가요? 중형세단?
차는 진짜 만족합니다 뒷자석도 엄청 넓고 저공해 차라서 더 좋아요.
What is the colour? Is it oxide grey?
The grille is too big and not cool enough. Perhaps they have the Chinese market in mind, but for cars sold outside China, the grille needs to be a bit smaller to make them sell.
I bought this car in January 2024. It is a very nice car but unfortunately in these few months it has spent more than 30 days in the workshop. It has a serious defect and it cannot be resolved.
What defect? Can you explain? I’m looking at one also.
최고의 비엠
So beautiful
Is this car eight cylinders?
I think its 4cyl turbo diesel engine
😮😮😮 zor Ollox ytkarsin
Wau it’s so nice car the world
Wow bro so cool ❤😊
BMW 5 Series or Audi A4?
yeah pretty dope
What is the name of this color?
what have they done to gear stick 😭
Finally no more ugly grill
Bulky and more of a Kia Forte than a BMW
Yeah I think for a long time kia was doing good at looking sort of bmw or Mercedesesque. Now BMW is looking like a Kia, and not in the endearing way that Kia had the reverse
