BMW teases the next-generation 5 Series estate ahead of its 2024 launch<\/h2>\n


\n<\/p>\n

With the new 5 Series due to hit showrooms on 21 October, BMW has begun officially teasing the more practical Touring model with this estate version set for its debut in spring 2024.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 5 Series Touring is one of our favourite estates and the new model will have quite the task replacing the excellent G31 generation. The outgoing car bested the likes of the Volvo V90, Mercedes E-Class Estate and Jaguar XF Sportbrake in several of our executive estate group tests over the past few years.\u00a0<\/p>\n

BMW\u2019s latest teaser image doesn\u2019t reveal too much about the new 5 Series Touring but we can see that the angle from the roof down the rear of the car is less steep than on its predecessor for a sportier side profile. The 5 Series Touring traditionally gets a bespoke set of rear lights different to those on the saloon and here again we can see a fresh rear light signature compared to the new 5 Series saloon\u2019s one. The front end will probably be identical to the saloon\u2019s, however.\u00a0<\/p>\n
