All experts agree that the new «five», which will get the intrafactory index G60/G61, will be revolutionary in every way.

It will have to borrow many technologies not only from the 7-Series, but also from the new flagship iX.

In addition, the appearance of truly efficient hybrid powertrains with their gradual reorientation to electric models looks inevitable.

Insiders even report some figures: up to 800 hp for the most powerful hybrid and up to 1,000 hp for a full electric car.

The last one should be called i5, and its main competitor on the market will be Mercedes-Benz EQE.

Body

Despite the fact that the Mercedes electric sedan has become more reminiscent of the four-door coupe exterior, this trend is unlikely to be supported by Bavarian designers.

Like the Seven, the BMW 5 2023 will retain a more classic profile, and the main changes will affect the optics and, of course, the trademark «nostrils» of the grille.

While observers are traditionally split into two camps: one representatives expect that the grille will stretch to height and become a part of the bumper, others — are more inclined to believe in the preservation of the old design, the fact that he has already «accustomed» to the popular modification 545e xDrive PHEV, which is considered technically the most advanced among the available versions of the «Five».

Interior. BMW 5-Series 2023.

The interior of the new generation BMW 5 Series 2023 model year can largely repeat the interior of the new BMW 7 Series with a minimalist dashboard, highlighting only two displays.

The central touchscreen should become larger, as required by constantly updated standards, and new on-board systems are expected to appear in the equipment.

Which ones — this is what the upcoming «seven» will show.

Also considering the very remote terms of appearance of a new generation car, we should expect more surprises, especially on the background of the global electrification of the European fleet.

Specifications and stuffing

BMW 5 G60 series cars will be equipped with gasoline engines, plug-in hybrids and electric motors. Diesel engines will not be in the range, as «heavy fuel» is not welcomed in the Old World.

The most powerful «five» will be the M5, which will be presented in two modifications — hybrid and electric.

The developer plans to take the hybrid V8 powertrain from the soon-to-be-released X8M, which is claimed to be a 1,000-horsepower car.

Timing and release date in Russia

According to the forecasts the time of appearance of first prototypes of BMW 5 at DOPP is summer-fall 2022, official presentation — spring 2023, first sales in Europe — the beginning of 2024.

A few months more will be needed for the updated model to appear in showrooms of Russian dealers, where now the «Five» in its current version can be purchased for 4.09 million rubles (520i Base modification).

The cost of the most expensive variant comes to 6 million (530d xDrive M Sport Pro Edition 21).
