Easy like Sunday morning: The 5 Series Touring range lives up to its heritage of excellence

These days, it is as difficult as it is satisfying to find an excellent family car powered by a diesel engine.

The 5 Series station wagon has always been a benchmark in the market and the Germans know that this is the ideal drive for long trips, with total comfort and without the need to stop to refuel.

Boasting a 2-liter four-cylinder with 197 horsepower and 400Nm of torque, the 520d Touring model is the perfect choice for those who still prefer a combustion engine, with very moderate fuel consumption and handling that is light years away from an electric car.

Comfort, dynamics and tech safety alongside entertainment solutions keep the 5 Touring at the top of its segment and, following in the fine tradition of the Bavarian brand, this is a family car that continues to care about those who enjoy driving.

What’s more, the interior space is enormous – the 5 Touring is 5.06m long – and all the standard materials are vegan.

The two 12.3-inch and 14.9-inch screens are excellent and the infotainment system remains one of the best on the market. The optional 18-speaker Bowers & Wilkins sound system is also phenomenal.

The range is complemented by both hybrid and fully electric versions, giving buyers a whole world of possibilities.
