Teasers of the much-awaited G30 BMW 5 Series have surfaced yet again – this time, the executive sedan has been seen in stills of a promotional video captured by BMWBlog, showing a number of key design details.
The most prominent view we get is of the rear end, which shows L-shaped tail lights and a subtle integrated rear spoiler, giving it a look that’s almost Honda City-like – although we’d say that the City’s rear end was inspired by BMWs in the first place. Another photo shows the M Sport rear bumper, which gets a gloss black rear valence and trapezoidal exhaust exits.
A side profile silhouette photo reveals little, bar from a secondary swage line that follows the C pillar Hofmeister kink, much like the current 7 Series, plus the same balanced proportions as its predecessor. As for the headlights, they look to feature the same “corona ring” LED daytime running light design as on newer BMWs, but in a more angular hexagonal shape.
One more photo shows the interior of the car, which is very much reminiscent of the 7 Series, right down to the Bowers & Wilkins sound system with glowing speakers and tweeters. BMW itself has also released another video, the third in its series of five teasers that it is showing in the days before the launch – although to be honest, there isn’t much in there that hasn’t been revealed so far.
Previous teasers have showed the car’s Remote 3D View feature, as well as the semi-autonomous Steering and Lane Control Assist system. More details of the new G30 BMW 5 Series can be found here.

Agree. The tail lights, akin to City’s (too obvious la) already a spoiler alert. I’m in a ride of dissappointment here once they revealed the whole car tomorrow. Sad beemer fan here.
I dont understand these dislikes. is it a diehard Bmw fanboy keeps refreshing the page and clicking the dislike button?
Merc fanboi can not accept dislikes, you can talk sh*t and not allow the dislike…jelly.
BMW just done a glorified Camry. hihihi
well, it just got leaked:

Tbh this car is nothing to WOW about. It is literally a downgraded 7 series.
I was kind of excited for the new 5 until i realised it is literally a shrunken 7 series. No WoW factor.
please dont disappoint with the same ugly new 7 series face
Come to M’sia, it’ll be so poorly specced. 3/5/7, all their car’s specs are a joke when compared to the Merc. I wonder if they think M’sian will buy anything as long as they slap a BMW badge on it?
Ha ha ha. On the first 2 teasers, I said it does not tickle me one bit & most BMW fanboy “dislike” me. On this new teasers, more commentators speak their opinions & they received the same “dislike”. Common BMW, this is just an opinion/comments la.
They are only telling their opinion’s & I concur with them. Is calling a spade a spade wrong !? Say what you like, I’m still going to say this 5 is a smaller version of the 7 series. Is that really a bad thing ?!
I have seen current city mod with this headlight DRL design. According to basher logic, it means BMW copy Honda. so BMW tak tau malu wan.
The most stingy semiluxury vehicles to give you sunroofs/panoramic sun/glassroofs come from Lexus in USA.
We wait and see this coming May 2017.
Ottoman function in 7-series.
F10 more handsome.
Please don’t even mention the peasant Honda City in a BMW 5 series article . It’s painfully insulting .
City’s side profile is like a longkang line . SMH.
M5 or CTS-V?
I can’t believe a professional car journalist would make a honda city comparison here.
the same blog already leak the car inside as well…disappointment..
E this round definitely beat this 5 hands down…too conservative from BMW….they need another Bangle..
To PT/Jonathan, why is P1 Saga video in this 5 series teaser ??
To PT/Jonathan, why is P1 Saga video in this 5 series teaser ?? I wonder if anyone notice it
I almost thought that the rear end pic was that of the new Saga.
