Hello, HELLO. I’m Mo Li.
Let’s start with a digression: after the last maintenance of my predecessor some time ago, I began the process of looking for a new car. Here first complain, read my post should know, the predecessor is a Buick LaCrosse, top model, at that time landing price 250000, seven years of the car, ran less than 60, 000 kilometers, the original car paint, not a little rub, guess how much it sold? 70,000. This rate of preservation of value, not to mention how bitter it is.

Choose a car

To get back to the point, I actually made a few comparisons before buying a car. Among the three giants of BBA, they are not interested in Mercedes-Benz at all, so there is no room for consideration. PASS directly, it’s not that Mercedes-Benz is bad, but that it doesn’t like it. Originally considered to buy an A6, also went to see the car, all aspects of the configuration are also very satisfied, very helpless, because of the full car, 4S sales attitude becomes not so enthusiastic, there is no match. And I was told that if I wanted to pick up the car, I could only book it, and then I had to wait a month and gave up decisively.

As for which configuration to choose for the 530, I initially identified the M-suite version, and then hesitated between the leading version and the premium version. The premium needed to pick up the car on the same day, and the waiting time was a little longer, so I finally got the M-suite version of the leading version of 530LI, the current car. Sales said that this is a customized version, can also be said to be a medium-term minor revision version, I do not know whether this statement is accurate, when the car is picked up, some optional kits are already on the car. Here to clarify one thing, to pick up the car, the car is black a carbon black, black is all installed, carbon black this only volcanic red interior, no Harman stereo, sales did not make clear, I did not take a closer look, mistakenly thought they were all the same choice.

With regard to the color, the cyan in the picture at first, but the car was told that it had been booked that day, and there was a carbon black, so it was mentioned.
The 5-Series, as the main model of the BMW brand, often feels quiet and introverted. After changing the M-kit, it is like having a soul, surrounded and blessed by 19-inch wheels, and the breath of youth suddenly rises.

The double kidney intake grille has always been the symbol of BMW and has a very high degree of recognition. the 2020 intake grille has a hidden function and is closed when parking. In my opinion, this helps to prevent foreign objects from entering. It’s still a very sweet function. When driving, the intake grille opens automatically to keep the intake smooth.

Blue sky and white clouds, BMW has once become a goal of many cyclists, not only because of BMW’s shape design, configuration and other reasons, but also more inclined to the control of BMW. For BMW, the only thing I have most contact with is the 3-Series, and the 3-Series is also well-known in the BMW series. For the 5-Series, to what extent can BMW, which is famous for its manipulation, achieve this handling ability? it will also be shown one by one in the process of using the car later.

The 5-meter-long body makes the body lines of the whole car appear more stretched, while the addition of the M suite and the 19-inch wheels add a more athletic flavor to the car, and the style gap between the ordinary version and the car suddenly comes out. Not so commercial, but also let many young people also began to accept the 5 series, rather than prefer the 3 series.

The rear part of the car is still very BMW, not much different from the previous generation model as a whole, the only difference is the trapezoidal exhaust pipe under the M suit, this design needs to be praised, you know, the previous model only with the top will have such a design, the right exhaust pipe with valves, fierce driving when there will be a good sound reflected.

Does this photo have the feeling of drifting over, and this car also chooses a rear-drive model, so you can drift if you want to be passionate, but due to the limitation of the tires, it is better to have a lot of money.

530Li is equipped with a 2.0T high-power engine codenamed B48B20D, with a maximum power of 252hp (185kW) and a maximum torque of 350Nm. According to the data, the power of the car, including the actual performance, is enough, whether the daily car environment is urban or highway, it is less likely to find it boring. If you feel that ordinary mode can’t satisfy your desire to drive, try exercise mode.

M sports suit version uses 19-inch wheels, tires use Pirelli Cinturato P7, front wheel size 245, 40R19, rear tire size: 275, 35R19, different configurations of front and rear tires are actually quite common, mainly used in performance cars, the purpose is obviously to increase the grip and friction of the rear wheels, so as to better maintain the posture of the body.

The most intuitive reflection of a car’s driving experience is in power and comfort, needless to say, 2.0T of horsepower, acceleration is also a good feeling, not too impulsive, the steering feel is also very good, relatively light. On the suspension, there is a slight discount on chassis comfort due to the use of 19-inch wheels, but the overall feeling is pretty good.

Another obvious mark of the 20 is the headlamp. The addition of the LED headlamp, commonly known as the spoon lamp, has raised the appearance of the 5 series to another level. For development and control, it is an essential choice, although it is not as clear as the lamp factory lights and does not have a cool opening effect, but functionally, it is enough.

Interior decoration

To tell you the truth, the interior of the 5 series, or the whole BMW interior, does not seem to have a sense of surprise, and this is where BMW has been complained about all the year round. But the amazing freshness will certainly pass, and no matter how amazing the interior is, it will not stand the baptism of time, so whether it is easy to use in actual driving is the most important point to consider. For the choice of interior decoration, the volcanic red color of Dakota leather is the most matched with carbon black, and the center control is all black, which also highlights a little sense of atmosphere.

M-style steering wheel in the feel of no picky place, the sense of grip, steering precision and agility, are also among the best. But the style has long been less athletic, feeling that the steering wheel of the 3 series is more sporty, and the addition of the pick also increases the fun of driving.

The biggest difference between the interior and the old model is the elimination of the two ring decorations on the instrument panel. The use of a full LCD screen looks much taller. In the era of full LCD, the 5 Series has also followed the trend.

Another highlight is the decoration of the “poplar grain high-quality wood decoration” of the M sports suit. The sense of class immediately rises and is very spiritual, but when the sun is abundant, it will appear like a layer of dust.

The entire central control is still simple, and the large screen in the center is easy to operate, but I personally feel that there are a lot of physical buttons and are not very friendly to novices. Sometimes it takes a long time to find a button.

On the other hand, as we all know, BMW’s gearbox and engine match is very perfect. Whether it is shifting speed or smoothness, it can be regarded as a benchmark. This set of ZF8-speed automatic gearbox is really impeccable.

The opening of the skylight is relatively large, and the front and rear sunroofs are controlled separately, which is more selective and more practical. As for the makeup mirror in the back, I won’t say much here.

The color matching of volcanic red becomes more beautiful the more you look at it. The throttle of the 5 Series adopts a floor-type design, which is relatively hard, but the feedback from the pedals is still very clear. But the first time I stepped on it, I still felt a little uncomfortable, and my heel went underneath unnaturally.

The main driver’s seat with seat memory perfectly matches the volcanic red interior, and the sunroof control button on the rear seat is on the back door, making it easy to use.

The optional sports seat lacks lumbar support. This function feels a bit useless. For me, it can be used or not, so although it can be added, I still stick to my choice.

There is a lot of space in the back row. Because it is a rear-wheel drive type, the protrusion in the center of the back row is relatively high, and the comfort will be poor if you sit there.

The rear central armrest can adjust the front and rear of the seat and the backrest angle, which is easy to use. Unfortunately, there is no exclusive entertainment function.

The cup holder in the back is very convenient for putting a cup of water or something.

In the storage compartment in the back row, you can put some simple things in it. The opening is okay, but the depth is not enough.

It has been two months since the purchase of this car, and the number of kilometers it has traveled is not many, so I can’t give too much driving experience at the moment. Due to the weather on the day of shooting, it rained when I was changing venues to shoot. It rained heavily, so there are not many photos displayed in this post, and I will add more details on the car operation later.
