BMW 5 Series models are inundated with a variety of excellent features. For the performance-oriented amongst our Eagle readership, the 2.0L BMW TwinPower inline-4 engine that powers the entry-level BMW 530i also powers the BMW 530i xDrive, while the BMW 540i and the latest PHEV 5 Series have a heftier 3.0L turbo inline-6 underneath the hood. Of course, in the latter, the engine is accompanied by an electric motor that provides additional performance capabilities. Reach out to one of our associates to schedule a visit so you can test-drive the BMW 540i xDrive and BMW 550e xDrive to see how electrification changes the equation.
