BMW has launched the updated version of the 5 Series LWB (Long Wheelbase) in the Indian market. This version comes with new features but without any changes in the pricing. It will continue to have a price of Rs 73.35 lakh (ex-showroom). Occupying the space between the 3 Series and 7 Series, the sedan competes against models like the Audi A6 and Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
The 5 Series LWB now features the Panorama Glassroof Sky Lounge, which incorporates a printed design on the glass along with integrated LED lights to produce various color effects. These lights interact with the car's ambient lighting settings, can be adjusted according to driving modes, and remain visible even in daylight. The roof enhances the amount of natural light entering the cabin, making the interior feel more spacious.
