Why it stands out
The 2021 BMW 5 Series continues to embody the brand's commitment to luxury and performance, delivering a compelling combination of refined driving dynamics and advanced technology. This mid-size luxury sedan has been updated with enhancements such as a more powerful array of engine options, including the new 48-volt mild-hybrid system for the 540i model, which combines traditional performance with improved efficiency. Owners frequently praise its distinctive interior design, which keeps the classic BMW layout while boasting modern conveniences like a standard 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen that integrates seamlessly with smartphone technology.

I like everything about the car except the feature that kills the engine when stopped. I realize that this is not a problem in Sport Mode, but Sport Mode is a little too jumpy in this 540i. I run my 540d in Sport mode exclusively and it’s torque curve is perfect. The 540d has better power at all speeds.

Excellent Car, Real Rocket with 550 trim or M5 variants. Great for a long trip and if you are in a state that dont require the UGLY front license plate it shows how elegant the lines are. I LOVE mine.
