Recently I say BMW testing the new 5-Series Sedan, the G30 generation, at the Nürburgring. Unfortunately I only got one shot of it.

Later this summer, BMW will unveil the new generation G30 5 Series.

The front-end styling is dominated by large air intakes, laser headlights and a larger than usual twin-kidney grille.  The side view The profile displays the typical character line beginning within the front fenders, then flaring out above the door handles.

Being built atop the same CLAR modular platform as the 7 Series, the new 5 Series will also drop considerable weight compared to the current iteration. This will be achieved thanks to CFRP usage in the chassis as well as extensive usage of aluminum everywhere it’s possible.

As for the engine range, no big changes should happen. 1.5-liter 3-cylinder units are not likely to be introduced, and the entry-level choices around the world should still be based on 2-liter 4-cylinder mills. The biggest changes will come from the introduction of the new B-family of modular engines on all models, as well as a more diverse offering of plug-in hybrid versions.
