BMW 5 Series & i5 Review: The end of an era or a new beginning?

The BMW 5 Series has been the world’s favorite executive saloon for decades, but the all-new G60 generation is a massive departure from the past. With a bigger body, a buttonless interior, and the first-ever fully electric i5, we're finding out if this is still the "Ultimate Driving Machine" or if it's evolved into something else entirely.

We're testing the illuminated "Interaction Bar," checking out the 601hp M60’s savage acceleration, and seeing if the 5 Series has finally traded its sporty soul for S-Class levels of comfort. From the controversial new styling to the "eye-activation" lane changes, this is the deep dive into the most high-tech 5 Series ever made.
