BMWBlog was a part of the test drive event at Lisbon, Portugal, driving the new G30-generation BMW 5 Series. Here’s what they thought after spending time behind the wheel of the BMW 540i M Sport.
The seventh-generation of the BMW 5 Series is under a lot of pressure to uphold the series’ reputation. This new 540i M Sport was not shy in upholding the reputation of the BMW’s best-seller.
The 540i was powered by a 3.0 liter turbocharged inline-six engine (B58). It delivers 340 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque, and reaches 0-60 mph in 4.9 seconds. Add the quick-shifting eight-speed automatic transmission, and you have a really great machine here!
Overall, BMW Blog thought that the BMW 540i M Sport might be the best 5 Series, especially for enthusiasts. It has almost everything a person would want to have in a car: great handling, sharp steering, a fast engine and amazing looks. Its comfortable and very luxurious, yet still fun to drive!
