BMW 5 Series LWB gets cool new features, keeps the same price
BMW's 5 Series Long Wheelbase (LWB) just got a fresh update in India—think a fancy Panorama Glassroof Sky Lounge and smarter Driving Assistant Plus tech.
The roomy 530Li M Sport, made in Chennai, still goes head-to-head with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class LWB and Audi A6, all while sticking to its ₹72.9 lakh price tag.
What's under the hood?
You get a 2.0-liter turbo-petrol engine with mild-hybrid support—delivering a punchy 258hp and 400Nm torque.
It sprints from zero to 100km/h in just 6.5 seconds, hits up to 250km/h, and runs on an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
Standout features
The new Driving Assistant Plus brings lane change help, collision warnings from all sides, and cruise control that can stop and go in traffic.
The Panorama Glassroof Sky Lounge isn't just for looks—it uses LEDs synced with ambient lighting for some serious day-or-night vibes.
How does it stack up?
The BMW's longer wheelbase means extra legroom compared to rivals like the Audi A6 or E-Class LWB.
But keep in mind: it only comes as a petrol mild-hybrid—no diesel option here—even after these upgrades.
Price stays unchanged at ₹72.9 lakh (ex-showroom).
