The BMW 5-Series is a mid-size luxury car manufactured by German automaker BMW since 1972. It is the successor to the 4-door sedan models of the BMW New Class and is currently in its sixth generation.Initially, the 5 Series was only available in a sedan body style. The touring body style was added in 1991 and the 5-door hatchback ("Gran Touring") was added in 2009.It is BMW's second best-selling model after the 3-Series and in 2010 produced about 50% of the BMW's profits.[1]On January 29, 2008, the 5 millionth 5-Series was manufactured, a 530d Saloon in Carbon Black Metallic.[2]The 5-Series got its name by being the fifth of the "new series" cars after the V-8 and Isetta era[citation needed] and was the replacement for the older four-door New Class sedans. The current BMW naming convention began with the first 5-Series.Currently, seven main generations of BMW 5 Series have followed one another:
• The E12, from 1972 to 1981
• The E28, from 1981 to 1988
• The E34, from 1988 to 1996
• The E39, from 1996 to 2003
• The E60, from 2004 to 2010.
• The F10/F11, from 2010 to 2016
• The G30/G31/G32, from 2017
Most years have seen a Motorsport version of the 5 series, called the BMW M5.
The E12 5-series was produced from 1972–1981 (produced until 1984 in South Africa). The E12 is the first series to bear the 5-Series name: the '5' denoting BMW's fifth 'New Class' platform. Designed as a replacement for the BMW New Class mid-size sedan, the E12 5-Series models were smaller than the large BMW E3 sedan but larger than the two-door 2002 models. BMW E28 is the second generation BMW 5-Series, launched in 1981. Styling changes to this model included revised headlights, thicker rubber bumper surrounds and large rectangular taillights. Mechanical changes included the addition of a six-cylinder diesel engine (in both naturally aspirated and turbocharged forms) and an automatic transmission. The BMW E34 is the third generation 5-Series, launched in February 1988. It had a stiffer body and was more streamlined than its predecessor.[citation needed] The E34 was among the most reliable luxury cars on the market, earning the best-in-class ratings from Intellichoice in 1991, and still considered one of the most reliable BMWs ever made.[5] It was also one of the safest cars on the road during its production, providing airbags, 4-wheel anti-lock brakes, and a very rigid body structure to protect occupants in the event of an accident.[5] It was also equipped with automatic stability control (ASC) or traction control (ASC+T) in later years on higher-specification variants.[6] The BMW E39 is the fourth generation 5-Series, produced from 1996 until 2003. The design draws heavily from the E38 7 Series in body construction and electronic technology[citation needed] and the wheelbase grew by 2.7 in (68 mm) and overall length by 2.2 in (55 mm) over the E34. The BMW E60 is the fifth generation 5-Series, produced from 2004–2010. Its non-traditional styling (designed by Chris Bangle and Adrian van Hooydonk) and many of its features received mixed reviews. Despite criticism over its exterior design and interior electronics, this became the best-selling 5-Series.[9]The E60 represented a significant step forward in technology over the previous generation.[10] The controversial iDrive interface is used to control many aspects of the vehicle. All-wheel drive returned as an option to the 5-series for the E60. The E60 535i is the first 5-series to use a turbocharged petrol engine.The F10/F11/F07 is the sixth generation 5-Series, produced from 2010–present. The platform is based on the F01 7 Series; improvements include a front dual ball joint short-long arm suspension (replacing the MacPherson strut suspensions BMW previously used), and a rear multilink suspension.[11]
