Review: 2024 BMW i5 eDrive40
You could argue that it’s hard for BMW to mess up the 5 Series, and with more than 10 million of them sold since 1972’s Gen 1, you could say that statement is right. But times are changing and for the latest version, the world’s most beloved mid-size luxury sedan is fighting a battle on two fronts—one considering its typical rivals, the Audi A6 and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, and second, against the deluge of new all-electric offerings like the Tesla Model S. BMW’s answer? The i5.

Review: 2023 BMW 530i M Sport
Few cars have such wide-ranging talents as the BMW 5 Series, and buyers seem to agree: it’s been at the heart of the German automaker’s range in every generation that’s been around (the current is the seventh). However, in the time when it has become almost the default choice, helped by the fact that it’s the best of its kind, it faces an interesting challenge: luxury crossovers. But as the demand for luxury sedans is shrinking, BMW isn’t going down without a fight. Their response is to come up with the best 5 Series since the legendary E39 generation.

Review: 2022 BMW 520i Luxury
BMW is the undisputed market leader in luxury vehicles in the Philippines. But while they tend to do excellently sales-wise, they don’t offer the same leadership when it comes to creature comfort features. The foundations—the engine and platform—all tend to be solid, but they fall short when it comes to things that customers actually touch and feel like the trimmings and accruements.

All-New 2017 BMW 5 Series is Here: The Business Athlete (w/ 17 Photos)
Carmakers usually like to do things with grandeur, focusing on the big things when it comes to new products. For the all-new 7th-generation 5 Series though, the change starts from the smallest of details. Take for instance the BMW Display Key. Standard on the all-new 5 Series, it’s more than just a conversation starter. This smart key shows off the car’s vital information and can even control certain functions ensuring that the driver is comfortable even before entering the cabin. Such is the philosophy behind the “Ultimate Sports-Business Machine.”

Review: 2004 BMW 530d
Every Terminator movie has a scene where Arnold Schwarzenegger gets hit with everything the enemy has. His skin and human attachments rip off, revealing the glowering, gleaming metal underneath. Imagine that happening to a car, and that's how the new BMW 5 series looks like—as if the attractively beady-eyed countenance of the old 5 gets blown off and out comes The Cyborg. The angry eyebrows of the front headlamp clusters lead to a pronounced nose section and sharply creased flanks. The shutlines are all trapezoids and the rear continues the bulky, angular theme.

Review: 2001 BMW 523i vs Honda Accord VTi-L
We know what’s circulating in your minds: here’s another crazy match up between a BMW and a Honda—an uneven match-up, much like letting Mike Tyson go against Yukozuna. On paper, there’s actually nothing the same with the Honda Accord and the BMW 523i: the German is rear-wheel drive, powered by an inline-6 and costs three million bucks. On the other hand, the Accord is the typical exec-sedan of choice offering front-wheel drive, powered by an inline-4 and priced at half of the Bimmer’s list price.
