This issue of the BMW 5-Series store exploration project was filmed at the Waldebao 5S store near Sihuidong subway station. Thank you for your support. The 3-series and 5-series models in the BMW series should be responsible for the sales of the whole car series. Since its inception in 1972, the BMW 5-Series has been passed on and innovated for seven generations. As the benchmark product of the BMW family, it has come again.

Appearance

The shape design of the new 5-series headlamps is more slender, known as the “lying L” lamp belt is very majestic, blue laser new smart headlamps are blessed, when driving on the highway, illuminate the road ahead, you can feel more at ease to drive. Unfortunately, this model is not equipped.

The new 5 Series is divided into a luxury suit and a sports suit, and the car filmed is a 525Li M sports suit with an instruction price of 426900 yuan. If you choose to buy this car, you can choose some required configurations according to your preferences, which can save a lot of money. Sometimes, dazzling optional configurations are more likely to exceed the budget, as for how to choose requires more calculation and comparison.

The size of the double kidney shape intake grille is further upgraded, and the waterfall grille banner is relatively regular, but what is hidden here is the intelligent high-tech drag reduction, which can greatly reduce the wind resistance coefficient. In fact, the chrome-plated frame can be replaced with carbon fiber material in the later stage, which will appear to be more athletic.

In this model, the wheels are only conventional 18-inch aluminum alloy wheels, and the tires use Pirelli Cinturato P7 series explosion-proof tires, which are green and environmentally friendly, suitable for daily comfortable driving and can reduce noise.

Body size: length / width / height (mm) is 5106 / 1868 / 1500, wheelbase 3105mm, output power (135kW / 184hp), rotational speed (rpm), torque 290Nm, body size is still very powerful, but the engine horsepower of this configuration is really low, enough for daily driving. Friends with a sufficient budget, it is recommended to try to buy more than 530 series of high-power engines, usually driving, can not be used, but the power reserve must have.

The engine is a BMW in-line four-cylinder turbocharged engine, matching 8-speed manual self-integrated gearbox, belonging to the classic golden power combination.

The double waist line on the side of the body extends from the front to the rear, and from the side, the silver “shark gills” are very eye-catching. The M logo, which represents the sports style, is also very bluffing.

If you choose a comfort suit, you can have keyless access, an anti-dazzling driver side external rearview mirror and automatic parking assistance system Plus, which can turn iPhone into a smart key and can be shared with your family. What is more interesting is the light effect of the welcome blanket, which is very ceremonial. When placing luggage, you can use foot sweep to open the trunk lid, which is very user-friendly.

The powerful autopilot assist system Pro needs to be installed at a high price, and it can only be installed in versions above 530Li xDrive. Although this car cannot be equipped with this configuration, in the face of such a powerful auxiliary system, simply list some functional names. This system has automatic parking assist system Plus, forward collision warning and emergency braking assistance, emergency parking assistance, speed limit identification assistance, lane deviation correction assistance, lane change blind area warning, traffic congestion assistance and auxiliary driving functions.

Interior decoration

The 12.3-inch central touch screen actually experienced it, but it was smooth, but the interface design was somewhat traditional. Many people responded that it felt like the interface style of the Nokia era. I feel the same way, and it really needs to be updated. This set of human-computer interaction system can realize five operation modes: gesture control, touch screen control, speech recognition, key control, iDrive knob control. Choose the mode of control according to your habits.

The same 12.3-inch LCD dashboard has a strong sense of technology in interface design, and can customize the display content and interface style according to preferences.

M sports multi-functional leather steering wheel with integrated driving assistance buttons, as well as dashboard settings buttons, as well as volume control, voice control and phone control buttons.

The new model is still the previous generation of electronic file handle shape, the round knob on the right side of the file handle is used to control the central control screen, and several shortcut buttons such as main menu, multimedia, map, navigation and so on are integrated around it. you can quickly operate various functions when driving a vehicle.

Personally, I still prefer the traditional air conditioning control physical buttons, which are often used by drivers every day, and can form muscle memory after using habits. Each function button can be selected correctly at a glance or without looking at the panel. If you touch the screen, the choice can be much more tedious.

Looking further down, there are two cup holders when you open the cover, including a 12-volt power supply, a USB interface and, of course, a popular wireless charging panel for mobile phones.

Seat

The Sensatec2.0 version of the volcanic red seat, which is placed in a black interior, will make the owner look younger and fashionable. Sensatec leather is a kind of artificial leather, which is a synthetic leather reprocessed from leather scraps. This material is also used on the dashboard. The diamond pattern decoration has improved the grade of leather.

The front seat has the electric adjustment function, the main driver has the memory function, and the version 530 or above has the ventilation and heating function. You can also get this configuration by choosing the winter suit.

The car also has 11-color atmosphere lights to add luster to the interior, you can choose different colors according to your mood, and get a sense of spiritual pleasure and romantic atmosphere.

Storage space

Here, let’s take a look at the storage space. There is a plastic non-slip pad in the central armbox. This design pays great attention to detail, and there is a TYPE-C charging interface on the side.

The central armrest of the rear seat is a large storage space for commonly used small objects, with a retractable double cup holder in front.

There is a small hidden storage box on the door panels on both sides of the back row. What should I put? car owners can study it in the future.

The glass lifting buttons on the door panel of the main driver are all equipped with one-button lifting function, and the adjustment buttons of the rearview mirror are also integrated here.

Back row space

Air conditioning outlets are set up for rear passengers, and heating and cooling can be adjusted. On the right side below are two TYPE-C charging ports, and on the left side is a 12-volt power supply port. The functions set for rear passengers are still relatively user-friendly.

No matter what the model is, it is more comfortable to have two people in the back row.

The design of several streamer reading lights on the top of the car is quite interesting. It is very similar to the lighting in the hotel lobby, and the design is very rich.

The BMW 5 Series is a model that I have always paid attention to and one of the most popular models. The new 5 Series is more youthful in design, keeps up with the trend of the times in functional configuration, and adds many high-tech functions. I think this model is also one of the models that every businessman wants to buy, and it has more face to drive.
