Overview
The BMW 5 Series (G60) is the eighth-generation executive sedan for buyers who want a larger BMW saloon than the 3 Series, with five seats and petrol-hybrid power. In Malaysia, it starts from RM 340,800 for the 520i and runs up to the stronger 530i M Sport.
For 2026, the G60 5 Series carries on unchanged in Malaysia, with the range made up of the 520i, 520i M Sport and 530i M Sport. The latest 2026 headline is not a model update but a global BMW recall involving about 575,000 vehicles over a starter motor issue, with 3 Series, 4 Series, 5 Series and X models listed.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should start with the 520i at RM 340,800. It gets the same 1,998 cc petrol-hybrid engine and 208 hp output as the 520i M Sport at RM 357,800, so on paper you are paying RM 17,000 for trim, not mechanicals — check the equipment list. Pay RM 399,800 for the 530i M Sport only if you want the 255 hp tune.

The G60 5 Series is the familiar BMW executive sedan in a newer, larger-generation package, and the electric i5 has already shown that the 5 Series character is still present in this platform. It is not the cheapest car in class: the Lexus ES and Volvo ES90 start lower, while the Mercedes-Benz E-Class starts above the base 520i. The 530i M Sport pushes the price much higher.
418 registered so far in 2026 — Malaysia's #79 best-selling model this year.

The BMW 5 Series G60 is priced from RM 340,800 to RM 399,800 in Malaysia. The range consists of the 520i, 520i M Sport and 530i M Sport.
Pick the 520i if you want the lowest price and the same 208 hp output as the 520i M Sport. Choose the 530i M Sport if the 255 hp tune matters more than the extra cost.
Yes. The listed G60 5 Series sedan variants use a 1,998 cc petrol-hybrid engine with a conventional automatic transmission. The fully electric G60 derivative is sold separately as the BMW i5.
The 520i starts above the Lexus ES and Volvo ES90, but below the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Higher 5 Series variants climb to RM 399,800, so the range is not the cheapest in the executive sedan class.
