BMW 5 Series 2018: A Perfect Blend of Luxury and Performance
The BMW 5 Series has always been a symbol of automotive excellence, offering a perfect blend of luxury, performance, and cutting-edge technology. The 2018 model continues this tradition while introducing several noteworthy improvements.
Technical Specifications
The 2018 BMW 5 Series boasts a range of technical specifications that make it stand out in its class. The car is available in both sedan and wagon body styles, with dimensions of approximately 194.6 inches in length, 58.2 inches in height, and 73.5 inches in width. The wheelbase measures around 117.1 inches, providing ample space for passengers and cargo.
The 5 Series features a lightweight yet robust construction, thanks to the extensive use of aluminum, magnesium, and high-strength steel. This results in improved fuel efficiency, agility, and overall performance. Moreover, the 5 Series offers an impressive drag coefficient of just 0.22, reducing wind resistance and enhancing aerodynamics.
Modifications
For those looking to customize their BMW 5 Series, a plethora of modifications are available to suit personal preferences. Optional M Performance parts, such as aerodynamic enhancements, exhaust systems, and carbon fiber components, can be added to enhance the car's sporty appearance and performance. Additionally, various exterior colors, wheel designs, and interior trim options are available, allowing owners to create a truly unique and personalized driving experience.
Engine Versions
The 2018 BMW 5 Series offers an array of engine options, catering to different driving styles and preferences. The lineup includes both gasoline and diesel engines, each delivering remarkable power and efficiency.
One notable choice is the 3.0-liter BMW TwinPower Turbo inline-six engine, available in the 540i model. This engine produces an impressive 335 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque, propelling the 5 Series from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.9 seconds.
For those seeking ultimate performance, the M5 variant is equipped with a monstrous 4.4-liter V8 engine, generating an astonishing 600 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. This powerhouse enables the M5 to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in a mere 3.2 seconds.
Trim Levels
The 2018 BMW 5 Series offers multiple trim levels, ensuring there is something to cater to every driver's needs. The base trim, known as the 530i, comes with a plethora of standard features, including 18-inch wheels, LED headlights, a power sunroof, and synthetic leather upholstery. Higher trim levels, such as the 540i and M550i, offer additional luxuries and performance enhancements, such as upgraded leather upholstery, adaptive suspension, and advanced driver assistance systems.
Design and Handling
The design of the 2018 BMW 5 Series is a harmonious blend of elegance and athleticism. The sleek lines, sculpted body, and iconic kidney grille contribute to its distinctive and dynamic appearance. Inside the cabin, the attention to detail is evident, with premium materials and cutting-edge technology creating a luxurious and comfortable ambiance.
When it comes to handling, the 5 Series is a true driver's car. Its precise steering, balanced chassis, and advanced suspension systems ensure a smooth and agile driving experience, whether navigating winding roads or cruising on the open highway. The xDrive all-wheel-drive system, available on select models, further enhances traction and stability, especially in adverse weather conditions.
Key Differences Between Generations
In 2018, BMW introduced two generations of the 5 Series: the seventh-generation (G30) and the sixth-generation (F10).
The seventh-generation 5 Series features a redesigned exterior with sleeker lines and a more modern appearance. It is lighter, more aerodynamic, and offers improved fuel efficiency compared to its predecessor. The interior boasts advanced technology, including a larger infotainment display and enhanced driver assistance systems.
In contrast, the sixth-generation 5 Series (F10) may lack some of the modern features of the G30, but it still delivers an exceptional driving experience. It offers a slightly more traditional design, with a focus on comfortable luxury and a wide range of engine options.
Overall, both generations of the 5 Series provide exceptional performance, luxury, and advanced technology, catering to different tastes and preferences.
In conclusion, the 2018 BMW 5 Series continues to impress with its superior build quality, performance, and luxurious amenities. Whether you're seeking a comfortable daily driver or a high-performance sports sedan, the 5 Series proves to be an excellent choice.

We deliver cars using maritime transport for efficiency and safety. After processing the necessary documents, we transport the car to the nearest port, where it is loaded onto a ship for secure delivery to the destination. For the final leg of delivery from the port to the customer's home, we use ground transportation in the form of car carriers. Our process ensures reliable and timely delivery of your car.
Throughout the entire delivery process, our cars undergo thorough protection. They are insured for the entire transportation period, ensuring safety and coverage of potential risks. Additionally, to prevent damage and preserve the exterior, we use car covers, and inside the car, we install moisture absorbers. These measures ensure the preservation of cars in excellent condition throughout the entire journey to the customer.
To participate in a car auction in the USA or Canada, you need to register on our website, make a small deposit (a mandatory requirement for all auctions), and then specify the desired maximum bid for the car. If the car is sold for the amount you specified or even less, you will become its owner. In some auctions, you may also need to wait for the seller's approval of the final bid.
