2008 BMW 5-Series

The 2008 BMW 5-Series lineup is updated with a new nomenclature, a refreshed look and a redesigned interior. While the 525i and 525xi is replaced by the 528i and 528xi, they also receive a new 230-horsepower engine. The 530i and 530xi is now the 535i and 535xi and is upgraded with a 300-horsepower twin-turbo inline-six engine. An updated STEPTRONIC allows for faster shifting and better efficiency. Highlighted by a revised front fascia, the exterior also features new taillights and a new rear air-diffuser. The interior is fitted with more storage space and ergonomic design. Other additions include a Lane Departure Warning system and Active Cruise Control with “Stop & Go” feature. A new Sport Package is available in the 550i that gives it 19-inch wheels and new body treatments. New optional wheels and tires are available in the 528i Sport Package.
