The brand-new travel version has been officially launched overseas. Before that, BMW used to introduce the 5 Series family into China, but domestic consumers really didn’t buy it, so they gradually gave up importing. The previous generation of models have completely crossed over. I wonder if this generation of models can complete their entry into China.
In terms of appearance, the front bumper part of the new car certainly adopts the 5-series iconic design concept. The flat kidney grille is wrapped with exquisite chrome-plated strips, filled with a sealed straight waterfall-type middle net, and the bent headlights on both sides of the signboard are quite individual. The front bumper part has its own sports attributes, and the lower grille of the inverted trapezoid is decorated with black kidneys, which reflects a full sense of sports.
On the side of the car body, the new car has innovative lines. Compared with the founder design of the old BMW 5 Series Travel Edition, the roof has obvious drop, and the D-pillar even brings out a trace of arc, which has a completely different experience. However, there is no i5 label at the corner, which is different from the sedan version. The hidden door handle will not be absent. The thick car body height shows the platform of changing oil to electricity, and the identity of the lower battery panel is not as low as that of the 5 Series Fuel Edition.
In the rear part, the taillights are of course the iconic 5-series station wagon design, with the left and right sides slightly upturned, which is different from the sedan version and appears more individual. The eDrive40 shows the power configuration, and the black diffuser decoration on the left and right sides of the rear bumper further enhances the sense of fighting and corresponds to the spoiler on the roof. In the interior part, there is not much to say in the front row of the new car, which is the same as the sedan version. The double suspended large-screen LCD screen rotates slightly to the driver, and the Hud heads up to form a linkage system. The patchwork crystal atmosphere lights and crystal knobs reveal advanced feelings everywhere.
In the back row, the performance of the head space of the station wagon is even better. The exaggerated expandable space supported by the huge trunk is the core element, which not only can form a paved layout after being laid down, but also has a multi-stage partition design and various hooks for external discharge, which is quite thoughtful. In terms of power, since it is an eDrive40 model, of course, it is equipped with a rear single motor that domestic consumers are already familiar with, with a maximum power of 340 HP, which is also matched with the 81.2 kWh lithium battery pack that consumers are familiar with. Obviously, it does not pay attention to this performance. The maximum range of pure electric cruising range WLTP is only over 500 kilometers. What kind of performance in the future is very worth looking forward to.
