- 2018 BMW 5 Series Review
The 2018 BMW 5 Series is fast, comfortable and overflowing with technology.
The 2018 BMW 5 Series lives up to the expectations set by its forebears. There's an engine for nearly every taste, and the car's handling capabilities are fundamentally sound. Factor in the 5 Series' latest tech and safety features, and you've got a prime pick for a midsize luxury sedan.
BMW redesigned its 5 Series last year, giving the car updated styling and a bit more interior room without increasing weight. This year brings more changes, too. The 2018 5 Series has three new powertrain options: a plug-in hybrid (530e), a six-cylinder diesel engine (540d) and a twin-turbo V8 (M550i) that puts the car very close to BMW M5 territory. We were already fans of the base 530i and the 540i, so these additions carry an added benefit, whether it be the efficiency of the 530e and the 540d or the muscular power of the M550i.
On the technology front, BMW continues to push the envelope, offering wireless Apple CarPlay integration, natural language voice recognition, and even a cool 3-D simulation of your car from the outside (you have to see to believe) by using the optional surround-view cameras. And as far as modern driver assist aids go, BMW's are among the best.
Of course, there are other luxury sedans you should consider, including the Audi A6, the Lexus GS and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class. We think highly of the 5 Series within this group, though, and it earns a solid recommendation.
what's new
Three new 5 Series variants join the lineup for 2018: the 530e iPerformance plug-in hybrid, the 540d xDrive six-cylinder diesel, and the range-topping M550i xDrive with its turbocharged V8. The 5 Series also gets some minor shuffling of options and packages this year.
we recommend
You'll very likely be content with the power from the 530i, but the extra power and more engaging sound of BMW's turbocharged six-cylinder make the 540i the 5 Series worth paying a little more for. In either case, we think the Driver Assistance Plus package, which adds a number of active safety features, is a must-have. We'd also add the Premium package to get keyless entry, heated seats and hands-free trunk opening.
trim levels & features
The 2018 BMW 5 Series is a five-passenger sedan available in five trim levels, all with different powertrains. The 530i (248 horsepower, 258 pound-feet of torque) and the 530e iPerformance plug-in hybrid (248 hp, 310 lb-ft) are powered by variants of BMW's turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine. Next are two six-cylinders: The 540i (335 hp, 332 lb-ft) gets a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six, and the 540d (261 hp, 457 lb-ft) has a 3.0-liter inline-six diesel. At the top of the range is the M550i with its turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 (456 hp, 480 lb-ft). BMW's all-wheel drive, called xDrive, is an option on the 530i, the 530e and the 540i. It's standard on the 540d and the M550i. An eight-speed automatic is standard across the board.
trim tested
Each vehicle typically comes in multiple versions that are fundamentally similar. The ratings in this review are based on our full test of the 2017 BMW 530i (turbo 2.0L inline-4 | 8-speed automatic | RWD).
driving
If the driving experience is truly important to you, then the 530i is a sedan to consider. With the exception of upgraded brakes, this BMW doesn't rely on sheer horsepower or road grip to sling it around corners. What you get instead is a package that feels extremely well-rounded, which is better.
comfort
The 530i is a supremely comfortable car with impressive climate control features, highly adjustable and massaging seats, and a whisper-quiet, soft-riding cabin. The only issue we had with the climate system is its capacity to keep us properly chilled.
interior
The 530i's cabin is an excellent place to spend time as long as you aren't a tall rear passenger. The controls are as easy as they can be, but the countless functions take time to learn. Climbing in and out is a breeze, and between the camera aids and windows, there's no worry about blind spots.
utility
The 530i has a fairly generous trunk with flexible cargo configurations thanks to the 40/20/40-split folding rear seat. In-cabin storage has improved over previous years, and the car seat anchors are easily accessible. The amount of backseat space is the only concern for larger car seats.
technology
BMW is a technology juggernaut and one of the more aggressive manufacturers when it comes to innovative features. Most of them are useful, while some are cool parlor tricks, but we appreciate them all. But iDrive's character recognition may be getting too smart for its own good.

I picked this car up on Saturday. Feels like I'm driving a space ship 👌🏾👌🏾
i dont get why people are so toxic..
you buy the car you like the most...
you dont need to bash down the other cars...
No kidding. I have a Chevy Truck, and a Shelby Mustang 350. Some people are like "how can you have a Chevy Truck when you drive a Mustang" or vice versa. I don't care. I don't play that game. Really is dumb.
wisdaniel best of both worlds in my eyes.
BMW is for people who enjoys to continue living their life in comfort and without a worry, I don’t see the reason to bash the bmw
My dream car😍. 1day, God bless my hustle🙏
nice
I wish one day you will afford it. God bless you
U gone ge it i pray you do💯💯💯
U can do it!
Don’t give up on it ❤️
One thing I’ve always loved about Bimmers is the Drivers seat display, it feels like you’re in a fighter jet. All the controls are within reach, all the lights on the dash make it look amazing at night..
I just picked one up back in January. I have the beige interior and Alpine White exterior. Fantastic car so much fun to drive!
As always BMW looks Awesome… Love it
Stas Como estas look at time to mercedes S CLASS. 🇹🇷🕋😎😎😎😎❤️
true
Just bought one.. loving the drive. Thanks Mr BMW 😅
How’s reliability been so far? Was looking at used 2019 w 10k on it good move or no?
@@aphillyatedkz4265 Did you get it yet?
this is my dream car, white 5 series... i'm due for a new car next year around this time! i want this!!!
Andrew Evenstar I have it and I’m 17 lmao
@@amirzakaria6338 you bought it yourself?
Balraj my dad did
@@amirzakaria6338 Did you help with the down payment?
Dream car… have you bought it yet? Also planning to keep years and years or until warranty expires?
Absolutely one of the best review videos I have ever watched, and I have watched a ton of them. Very well done
Lafayette Britto is there any difference between the 2018 and 2019?
bluwng some new safety features, and small interior changes
This channel has perfect reviews, the presentation is done in a fluid way, as the presentation made in stages of presentation of the vehicle by the official presenter of the cars, the presenters of this channel speak fluently and continue, everything very precise, is not like the other channels that speak too informally and very relaxed.
I just got mine in white last week.
& absolutely Love it.
you're fucking lucky man, i had a chance to check one of those and they look really alpha, i'm not sure if i could own one of those one day :D
asd assd you sure can my friend. If not today, tomorrow for sure. God bless brother.
@@TheHardik112 how’s reliability been?
@@aphillyatedkz4265 it’s been good so far.
I like all of those BMW 5 Series 🚗😎👍
I love ❤️ the BMW 5 series 👍
I love how clear the video is
My favourite UA-cam car review
Great video, very detailed. Thanks
That sound system though. Beautiful.
I think the technology in the new 5 series is amazing, but I still like the looks of the E60 5 series better, in my opinion the design is just better in every way.
Correct. Unfortunately, most bimmer fans can't see that the newer design are too ordinary for any non fan to be converted. I own a 1998 e39 528 and an e60 530i of 2008. While the e39 is more reliable and better built, the e60 is simply the most beautiful and uncompromising bmw design ever. Thats why the e60 out sold other luxury brands for 10 years.
I’ve had the E39 E60 F10 and now G30… for me nothing will ever beat the E39 model… but the new G30 is definitely the closest thing
I’m 19 thinking about getting this I’ve saved about 10k and the 2019 is now worth 20k so on finance it’ll be like 250 a month of a put 10k down Should I get it or get something cheaper.?
Comfortable and easy to drive without compromise in luxury
After I’m done with my 525i E60 I would love to upgrade to this. But I really want the X7 💯💯
I've always loved the five series. Wish I could afford one.
BMW 👍👍👍
So is there a give away contest for this car??😜
Bmw is over than the others.
Simply.
Your all videos is nice
My dream car!!😍😍😍
Thank you for this valuable video
e46 was the legendary bmw. this 5 serie looks better then last one.
5 series all day baby!!
As a former BMW 5 series owner. 2017 5 series x drive with the performance package and tech package. There was something wrong with that car all the time. The electrical system mainly, but also had mechanical issues at under 50,000 miles. Never had that issue with any other car. Maybe it was a lemon, who knows. A tow truck driver told me he picks up more BMWs off the road than any other car though. I found that interesting. The main reason I moved on from BMW is the technology. For what you are paying, I expect top notch technology. People who had the same year car as I did, had more tech in their car, at heavy heavy heavy discount compared to what I was paying. That's what really bothered me.
buy the new a6 ;)
Best sedan I have e ever owned
I remember when the e39 first came out, the 280hp was very impressive, in 19 years the 540 has gained 50hp
It’s a really nice car. It’s so fast and sporty. BMW has done a really good job and I’m sure that this car will get very popular soon
aayan goverski normal people can’t afford these types of cars unless you’re making more than 70k a year
That ambient lighting sure does support the design language of the vehicle. Also, you can pretend you’re in Star Wars...
A Steve indeed!
Love that they say $51,000 at the end even though the video is based off the top-of-the-line 540 with all possible additions which can rack the price up near $80,000
90.000 :)
I LIKE BMW MORE THAN ANY CAR
ITS A NICE CAR ALL OVER ALL CAR IN OUR WORLD
Reminds me of the 7 series 1998 front which was the sexiest
I love you BMW
Great car😍
Badass ride
BMW overtake the world💪
3:17 whoever did that animation, did not consider it's done wrong... the rear wheels steer in the opposite direction as the front ones, in order to obtain a tighter turn radius. If the rear wheels were to turn as displayed here, it would actually widen the car's turn radius, not tighten it.
The wheels turn like that when driving fast. Opposite when driving slow.
So beautifully reviewed. Thank you.
I had a dream about this car
Perfect n presentation
Superb car
5 series my favourite cars the best ever 👌
Number one. Probably!
BMW 5 series is the Best car in my opinion.
The first car I'm gonna own
Is it out in Uk
My Uncle Kenny like those too🚗😎👍
The 4series seems like it could be theGoldilocks of the lot. The best looks and the hatchback make it pretty compelling - not sure how it drives compared to the 5 - the 5 seems the best for the driver - sitting with that beautiful interior and perhaps the seat comfort. I am torn. Not sure which car to move up to from my current f30 which I love.
The poor person goldilocks
@@GodKing804 LMAOOOOOOO
Is Lexus ES 350 better than this?
I love bmws
This car has literally every single option on it. It doesn’t come with 75 % of all the stuff he’s talking about
Not even close to 75%! Lots of the features are standard on a G30. Just for example: digital gauges, boot foot opening, pedestrians warnings, reverse camera, gesture controls, etc.
How much does it cost please tell me
Price in Europe please ?
What color combo is that? Thanks
This is my dream car
8 series coupe in looks and features looks aggressive beautiful and little different looking from usual BMW. Cos from the time I'm born I have seen the same design and style it's time for BMW and AUDI to totally change the outer design
Are you relizing that we're in 2018, since you type 2019 in your description?
How much it is?
BMW THE BEST !!!
M'y Dream Cars BMW
I'm going to buy it
We are are going to buy this car 2019
Did u buy it still?
Which music in this video is playing?....name
Well, I have all that Bowers & Wilkins audio, wireless chargin and gesture control... but in the end the car just cannot select and play different playlists from iPhone - that something worked perfect 5yrs ago in Volkswagen. Otherwise good car...
Nice car don't tell any body
But 7 serious better than this who's agree !!
Mashaa Allah
Well, it's the 7 series, it must be better...
hello,rich man
So nice car
4:21 typical bmw driver pulling out into oncoming traffic.
Jack Barrett are you born yesterday kid. There can be an idiot in EVERY CAR!
Dude chill it's a joke
in the real life, they will make accident....
That’s an Audi driver ie vw
LMFAO
But does it go into hover craft mode??
Better than Audi for sure
Even the rating and the features
Marks my words, after this generation bmw sales will start to fall. I own an 2007 e60 and the fact that bmw is making luxury it's main focus is really sad considering. If i really wanted a vehicle centered on luxury I'd get a Mercedez or maybe even a Lexus for lower maintenance cost. No real point in getting a bmw if it's just gonna be a mediocre Mercedes-Benz.
In my country the price from 51,000$ will up to 127,272.22 $.
carplay?
Intro music?
But do it got the ai like the new 328?
Is this fire edition for Korean?
Luxury or m sport?
Which song is this which u used at intro
No No by Faza Olmec
Guys,
What should I go for
I live in germany and I actually love the Gt-series, though i already have the 3 series gt. I can't decide wether to go for the 6 series gran turismo or the jaguar XF Portfolio(luxury edition)
RE:R4PTOR 6 series way better than jaguar in my opinion .Jaguar interiors sucks
Burak Canıgür that's true though
The car is cool
What a beautiful car! Yet it still gets bashed for reliability!
There is no 2019 BMW series und this is not a review. You just copied together a bunch of videos
I need that toy!
Ima spend spend all my money on it
BMW ftw, style and refinement in a class it's own
What's 540 in 540i?
Bmw make front signal and reverse light LED in all versions
Better than Volvo S90 T8?
My king car.Cool...
Feels more like a paid advertisement than a review
serendipityuk it's an ad. The title is clickbait
Obviously an ad, vote it down.
serendipityuk
Reported and downvoted
Fantastic ad tho
That's because it is...
Will anyone recommend leasing vs buying a bmw?? Series 5 or 4
I thought as a rule these were lease only UNLESS you are a wrench spinner yourself... but that's my 2 cents
i love this car its my love u will be mine soon
I really like it... however, its not enough change for me.
I have BMW 5 Series
Why does it have a M badge?
It's for the lil bits of M trim that's on the car..steering wheel, rims etc..
AWESOME
BMW > all
