Model information

The latest generation of the BMW 5 Series, known as the G30, was first introduced in 2016 and is part of the 7th generation of the 5 Series model. The saloon combines sporty styling with luxurious comfort and state-of-the-art technology. It offers a wide range of powertrains, including petrol, diesel and hybrid variants. The G30 range is known for its driving dynamics, high-quality interior and innovative driver-assistance systems.

Variants within the same range

Within the 5 Series range there are several variants that should not be confused with one another. Alongside the saloon (G30) there is also the BMW 5 Series Touring (G31), which is designed as an estate and offers more load space. There is also the BMW M5, a high-performance sport model of the saloon, characterised by aggressive design cues and enhanced performance. These differences are important for buyers who have specific requirements for space and performance.

Model year differences

The model changes affecting the body dimensions and boot dimensions occurred mainly between model years 2016 and 2020. The G30 range received a facelift in 2020, bringing minor adjustments to the body shape and dimensions. However, these changes did not have a significant impact on boot capacity, which remained constant at 530 litres.

Direct competition

In the same price class and size, the BMW 5 Series saloon competes with models such as the Audi A6 and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. The Audi A6 offers a boot capacity of around 530 litres, similar to the BMW. The Mercedes-Benz E-Class, on the other hand, has a slightly larger boot capacity of around 540 litres. These differences are small but can be meaningful for buyers who rely on storage space.

More affordable alternatives

More affordable alternatives with similar boot dimensions include the Skoda Superb and the Ford Mondeo. The Skoda Superb offers a boot capacity of up to 625 litres, making it an excellent choice for buyers who need a lot of storage space. The Ford Mondeo, by contrast, has a boot capacity of around 525 litres, placing it in the vicinity of the BMW 5 Series saloon. These models offer good value for money, without compromising on practicality.
