The vehicle concept of the BMW 5-Series Touring is specifically tailored to the requirements of target groups in Europe and the Japanese automobile market where the combination of sporty elegance and increased transport capacity has long been particularly appreciated. The latest model generation will be launched in Europe in May 2024. Other markets will follow in June 2024. By far the most important sales region for the new BMW 5-Series Touring is the German home market, followed by Great Britain, Italy, Sweden, Belgium and Japan.
Like the new BMW 5-Series Sedan, the Touring model is also based on a flexible drive architecture. It enables the new BMW 5-Series Touring to be equipped with highly efficient petrol and diesel engines including 48- volt mild hybrid technology, plug-in hybrid systems and as the first model of its kind in the premium segment of the upper mid-range segment also with a purely electric drive. All model variants are produced on a joint production line at the BMW Group plant in Dingolfing.
Exterior: Stretched proportions emphasise elegance and presence
In keeping with the modern design language of the new BMW 5-Series, the Touring features generous, clearly defined surfaces. These are structured by a few precisely placed lines. Its 2-box design is expressed above all in the long roofline, the gently sloping rear and the dynamically stretched side window graphics. In addition, a striking lateral indentation in the rear of the body and the dynamically sloping roofline give the new BMW 5-Series Touring a more athletic and sporty appearance than the previous generation.
Compared to its predecessor, the new BMW 5-Series Touring is 97 millimetres longer at 5,060 millimetres and 32 millimetres wider at 1,900 millimetres. The vehicle height has increased by 17 millimetres to 1,515 millimetres. The new BMW 5-Series Touring has the longest wheelbase in its class, increasing by 20 millimetres to 2,995 millimetres. The resulting proportions, together with the modern surface design, signalise elegance and a commanding presence.
Distinctive front end, flat side window graphics, individual rear end
Like the new BMW 5-Series Sedan, the Touring model has a striking front end with a modern interpretation of the typical BMW grille and twin headlights. The BMW radiator grille, which projects far forward, features optional BMW Iconic Glow contour lighting. The LED headlights feature the brand's distinctive four-eyed face in a reduced form. Two almost vertical LED elements arranged on the outside provide the daytime driving lights and the turn indicators. The precisely orchestrated interplay between the headlights, the illuminated BMW radiator grille and the light carpet projected from the sill create effective welcome and goodbye scenarios.
Adaptive LED headlights with blue design elements (standard in Europe) are available as optional equipment. The range of functions of the Matrix High Beam includes the glare-free High Beam Assist BMW Selective Beam. A further option is the M Shadow Line lights with black trim for the inside of the headlight housings. The optional BMW Iconic Glow exterior package includes contour lighting for the BMW grille and a dynamic light carpet for the entry area of the new BMW 5-Series Touring.
In the side view, the flat side window graphics, the slim D-pillar and the long roof spoiler emphasise the sporty elegance of the new BMW 5-Series Touring. An athletic shoulder line rises above the powerful rear wheel arches. The upper character line of the side section flows into an air scoop at the rear. Together with the other horizontal lines and the flat rear window, it emphasises the car's broad and solid stature. The rear lights, which extend well into the side sections, also feature a tailormade design. Their horizontal LED elements are divided by an L-shaped chrome strip.
A wide range of paintwork and light alloy wheels, M Sport Package and BMW i5 M60 xDrive Touring with specific design features
The range of paintwork colours includes one solid finish and nine metallic finishes. In addition, three BMW Individual paint finishes are available for the market launch of the new BMW 5-Series Touring, including two particularly expressive matt paint finishes.
The standard equipment of the new BMW 5-Series Touring includes light alloy wheels in 18-inch and 19-inch sizes for the all-electric and the plug-in hybrid models.

Driving experience: chassis technology
The vehicle concept of the new BMW 5-Series Touring has been designed to combine the dynamic performance so typical of the brand with an impressive level of travelling comfort. With the longest wheelbase in the competitive segment, large track widths, an almost perfectly balanced 50 : 50 axle load distribution, intelligent lightweight construction and optimised rigidity of the body-chassis connection, the BMW 5-Series Touring offers the ideal conditions for this. Model-specific modified and individually tuned suspension components and the corresponding application of all control systems ensure that all model variants of the new BMW 5-Series Touring offer harmonious handling in every situation. This also takes into account the different vehicle weights resulting from the wide range of drive systems available, including combustion engines, plug-in hybrid systems and pure electric mobility.
The design principle of the chassis - with a double-wishbone front axle and a five-link rear axle - has undergone extensive further development. New and in some cases model-specific unit mounts and reinforcements help to optimise agility and ride comfort as well as acoustic properties and vibration damping. The BMW i5 Touring, for example, features a large-volume mount for the electric motor and special rubber mounts for the rear axle carrier. The all-wheel-drive models have an aluminium thrust pad under the front axle carrier. Like the housing of the highvoltage battery in the underbody of the BMW i5 Touring, it contributes to optimising the rigidity of the front end.
The dynamic character of the new BMW 5-Series Touring is underlined by the new standard sports steering In addition to the speed-dependent Servotronic steering power assistance, its range of functions includes a particularly direct and also steering angle-dependent transmission. The latest version of the Integral Active Steering system is available as optional equipment. In terms of control systems, all models are equipped with directly controlled wheel slip limitation and the latest version of the integrated braking system. 18-inch and 19-inch light-alloy wheels are standard on the plug-in hybrid models and the BMW i5 Touring.

The new BMW i5 eDrive 40 Touring and the plug-in hybrid models also feature stroke-dependent control of the shock absorbers on both axles. Further options include M sport suspension with lowered suspension and Adaptive Chassis Professional (standard in the BMW i5 M60 xDrive Touring).
Adaptive Chassis Professional includes electronically controlled shock absorbers. Infinitely adjustable valves enable wheel-specific regulation of the damper forces, which is adaptive to the driving style, the road conditions and also the load condition. The latest version of the system uses a newly developed control logic. In order to ensure clearly defined body control and at the same time sensitive spring deflection, the ideal damper force is now calculated using a physical calculation of the data collected by numerous sensors on the driving condition.
Integral Active Steering is another component of Adaptive Chassis Professional. The model-specific suspension technology of the BMW i5 M60 xDrive Touring also includes 19-inch M light alloy wheels with mixed tyres and an M sport braking system.
Adaptive M Suspension Professional with additional Active Roll Stabilisation
The top-of-the-range model is also available with Adaptive M Suspension Professional, which uses M specific characteristics to adaptively control damper forces. This option also includes Active Roll Control including Active Roll Comfort. The electric swivel motors ensure particularly fast and precise compensation of lateral inclination forces.
The Active Roll Comfort function ensures that the system not only reduces body roll, but also builds up a counter-torque with the help of the 48-volt electric motors to keep the body horizontal, especially when the road surface is uneven on one side. In this way, the driver and passengers hardly notice any bumps in the road.
Driving experience: driver assistance systems
The systems for automated driving and parking available as standard or as an option for the new BMW 5-Series Touring set standards in the competitive environment with their range of functions, reliability and everyday benefits. The assistance systems increase comfort and safety in everyday driving and on long journeys. They support and relieve the driver in a variety of situations. A technology kit that is exceptionally powerful in the automotive sector is the basis for their outstanding functionality. It also offers unique potential for the future development of further automated driving functions.

The highlight of the range is the optional Driving Assistant Professional including Steering and Lane Control Assist and Distance Control with Stop & Go function. In the US and Canada, as well as in Germany, the Highway Assistant is optionally available, which relieves the driver of steering tasks on highways with structurally separated directional lanes. At driving speeds of up to 130 km/h (85 mph), it is possible to take your hands off the steering wheel and position them comfortably as long as you keep a close eye on the traffic.
The system also includes the Active Lane Change Assistant with eye activation. The vehicle suggests a lane change and this can be carried out for the first time by looking in the exterior mirror to confirm the lane change. The Active Lane Change Assistant takes over the necessary steering movements, the traffic situation permitting. The combination of Highway Assistant and Active Lane Change Assistant enhances the Level 2 semi-autonomous driving experience in a way that is unique in the automotive sector.
In addition, Driving Assistant Professional makes life easier not only on motorways, but also on country roads and in city traffic. With automatic Speed Limit Assist, traffic light detection (market-dependent), route control and active navigation guidance, both the speed and the lane change assistance can be adapted particularly precisely to the respective traffic situation. Further components of the system are Side Collision Protection with active return, the Road Priority Warning and Wrong-way Warning, the front Crossing-traffic Warning with braking function as well as the Emergency Lane Assistant and Emergency Stop Assistant functions which can be used in selected countries.
Assistance functions also available as a BMW ConnectedDrive upgrade

Charging solutions from BMW Charging
BMW Charging is continuously expanding its range of products and services for easy and convenient charging at home, at work and on the move. The Connected Home Charging Package will also be available for the BMW i5 Touring and the plug-in hybrid models, which was introduced for the first time when the new BMW 5-Series Sedan went on sale in autumn 2023. It creates optimal conditions for reducing energy costs, easing the burden on electricity grids and reducing the need for fossil fuels. In addition, the all-electric model variants of the new BMW 5-Series Touring are among the first BMW vehicles to feature the Plug & Charge Multi Contract functionality.
The BMW i5 Touring and plug-in hybrid models in Europe come with the BMW Charging Card and the Professional charging cable (Mode 3) for use at public charging stations. It enables three-phase charging with an output of up to 22 kW (standard in the BMW i5 M60 xDrive Touring, optional in the BMW i5 eDrive40 Touring). The optional Flexible Fast Charger (Mode 2) for AC charging with an output of up to 11 kW can be connected to conventional household sockets and industrial sockets using the appropriate adapters. The BMW Wallbox, which can be permanently installed, is offered as an option and enables three-phase charging with an output of up to 22 kW.
Connected Home Charging for the BMW i5 Touring
Connected Home Charging offers a complete ecosystem for smart charging for the first time and at a premium level. The package offered in many European markets together with the strategic cooperation partner E.ON creates optimal conditions for solar and load-optimised charging (stage 1) as well as for cost-optimised charging based on a dynamic electricity tariff contract (stage 2, presumably from summer 2024).
The Connected Home Charging Package also includes the BMW Wallbox Plus with comprehensive connectivity, including installation service and networking. Digital services can be used to control charging processes via the My BMW app.
Plug & Charge Multi Contract: Contactless authentification with access to multiple contracts
The all-electric models in the new BMW 5-Series are also the first BMW vehicles to be suitable for use with the Plug & Charge Multi Contract function. The Plug & Charge Multi Contract makes charging at compatible public charging stations even more convenient, as digital authentication via app or charging card is no longer required to access them. The vehicle authenticates itself independently through a technical interface (ISO15118-2).
The multi-contract option of the Plug & Charge functionality is groundbreaking and unique. Customers can digitally store up to five individual Plug & Charge-enabled power contracts from different providers in the vehicle. The authentication required for the charging process and billing takes place automatically at compatible charging points.
Fixed kilowatt-hour prices for public charging
The main advantage of BMW Charging's public charging offer is the fixed and attractive kilowatt hour prices per country for AC and DC charging in the Active Tariff in Europe, independent of the charging infrastructure operator and independent of the price displayed at the charging station. The High Power Charging Network of the BMW Group participation IONITY, which is generally equipped with the Plug & Charge functionality, is also integrated into the BMW Charging Network.
The BMW Charging public charging offer provides access to more than 466,300 public charging points in 29 countries in Europe alone with just one registration. In Germany, drivers can access more than 87,000 charging points. BMW Charging is among the top providers with around 95 per cent coverage in the public charging network.
Product and manufacturing sustainability
The BMW Group consistently pursues its goal of becoming the most successful and and at the same time sustainable manufacturer of premium automobiles. Since 2007, as part of BMW EfficientDynamics, every aspect of vehicle development has been optimised in terms of how it can contribute to improving sustainability. The holistic approach to reducing the ecological footprint takes into account the entire life cycle of a vehicle - from development and procuring raw materials as well as using secondary materials, through production to the use of the vehicle and how it is subsequently recycled with the circular economy in mind.
In addition to the consistent optimisation of vehicle efficiency, the BMW Group is committed to the Paris Climate Agreement and, together with the renowned Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), has defined CO2e reduction targets for the supply chain, production and use phase on the way to climate neutrality At the heart of the company's ambitious sustainability targets is the intention to reduce CO2 emissions across the entire value chain by 40 per cent per vehicle by 2030 compared to 2019. At the same time, the BMW Group is pursuing the goal of achieving complete climate neutrality across the entire value chain by 2050 at the latest.
New BMW 5-Series Touring also meets premium environmental standards
The new BMW 5-Series Touring makes a significant contribution to achieving these goals and fulfils its premium claim not only in terms of build quality and driving pleasure, but also with regard to its environmental impact. Corresponding optimisations are already being implemented in the supply chain. Here, the CO2 footprint is reduced by up to 10 per cent for the combustion engine models and up to 20 per cent for the BMW i5 Touring compared to vehicles in which these measures are not applied.
The new BMW 5-Series Touring thus has a completely leather-free interior as standard, including the steering wheel. In addition, the loudspeakers in the door trim are covered with a decorative spacer fabric, which eliminates the need for fabrics and adhesives. Innovative Frozen paints produced using the Biomass Balance process are available for the paintwork. The proportion of recycled material in the luggage compartment trim of the new BMW 5-Series Touring is 21 per cent. For the upper material of the floor covering, 100 percent recycled material is used, which is obtained from old fishing nets, among other things. The design covers in the engine compartment are also made entirely of secondary material. In the BMW i5 Touring, the waste heat from the electric drive can be used to warm up the high-voltage battery.
The holistic approach to optimising sustainability is underlined by the diversity of innovations. This applies in particular to the new BMW i5 Touring. The all-electric model opens up the possibility of significantly improving the carbon footprint compared to a comparable model with a conventional combustion engine. Compared to the new BMW 520d Touring with combustion engine, the new BMW i5 eDrive40 Touring has an approximately 35 per cent lower global warming potential over its entire life cycle when using the current EU electricity mix. When using regenerative charging power, the new BMW i5 eDrive40 Touring even has around 55 per cent less global warming potential over its entire life cycle than the new BMW 520d Touring.
Production with an ever-increasing level of sustainability
All model variants of the new BMW 5-Series Touring are manufactured at the BMW Group Plant Dingolfing. In the course of the transformation to electric mobility, both the production capacities and the number of employees at the e-drive production competence centre located at this site have recently been significantly increased. In addition, the transformation at the BMW Group plant in Dingolfing is characterised by the iFACTORY vision with its "lean", "green" and "digital" thrusts.
The electricity used for vehicle production is generated from renewable sources to 100 per cent. Other facets of increasingly sustainable production include an energy-efficient plant fleet, packaging planning, transport logistics, recycling and water management. Electric trucks are being used on a pilot basis for transport within the plant site. The recycling rate at the Dingolfing plant is over 90 per cent. At the BMW Group plant in Dingolfing only around 620 grams of residual waste were produced per vehicle manufactured in 2022. More than 40 per cent of the water demand is covered by the company's own wells. This conserves drinking water reserves in the region.
