History of BMW 520i Saloon Luxury Premium Plus (FL2021)

The BMW 5 Series, which debuted in 1972, is now in its seventh iteration. Customers were drawn to the famous car because of its elegant appearance on the outside and inside. Even the sportiness and comfort it provided grew in popularity as consumers’ automobile needs changing over time.

The 5 Series sedan and touring variants sold over 600,000 units for the Bavarian brand. It has won numerous honours, demonstrating its continued success after more than 28 years. The Connected Car Award and Executive Car of the Year were among the honours bestowed upon it.

Its 2020 version has a more streamlined appearance thanks to its larger kidney grille and thinner headlamps. The measurements remained the same, but it grew in length by a few inches with a larger wheelbase offered only in China.  

The 2020 G30 sedan has a Cd of 2.3, and the touring had a Cd of 0.26, continuing the company’s tradition of low coefficient drag. Its outside lines and air flap control mechanism for the radiator received particular attention due to these improvements. Previously, the 5-series was the larger version of the 3-series, but the 2020 generation pushes it closer to the 7-series by having virtually equal optional and standard features.

The 2020 model receives a facelift for the year 2021, from the outside to the interior. With its LED headlights with sharp creases, the facelifted 5-Series appears more angular and slightly more aggressive. These headlights also have an L-shaped design that illuminates the elements that aren’t visible in the taillights. The projecting grille is also more aggressive, emphasising the car’s kinship with the 7-Series and X7.

On the inside, the infotainment touchscreen extends from 10.3 to 12.3 inches, and a standard 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster is combined with it. The centre console buttons have been changed to a gloss black finish, and perforated synthetic leather upholstery with contrast stitching is now standard on 4- and 6-cylinder cars. Dakota leather-trimmed sport seats come standard, while Nappa leather is optional on all models. Synthetic upholstery with contrast stitching is standard on this model, although other models have it as well.

After the seventh generation was publicly introduced on October 12, 2016, sales began in February 2017. China, the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, and Japan all sold the BMW 5 Series.
