The 2022 BMW 5 Series is a luxury midsize sedan coming in several trims, each of which offers a unique blend of performance and luxury. From the base 248-hp turbocharged four-cylinder 530i to the 523-hp M550i and top-of-the-line M5 with its 600-resshp twin-turbo V8, all engines are paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Both rear-wheel drive (RWD) and all-wheel drive (xDrive) are available across trims. The 5 Series also has a plug-in hybrid option, the 530e. It comes with a high-quality interior and plenty of sleek tech features, including a 12.3-inch touchscreen display, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, navigation, Bluetooth, and a Wi-Fi hot spot. Standard driver-assistance features include forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, and rear cross traffic alert. The 2022 model is part of the seventh 5 Series generation introduced for 2017; it received a major refresh in 2021 including a larger grille, a larger infotainment screen, and more standard safety features. The 5 Series remains a staple in the luxury midsize car market due to its blend of performance and interior comfort.
