Page 1 of 5 The third generation 5 Series Touring
The introduction of the third generation BMW 5 Series Touring continues the
bloodline of BMW's famous Touring name that, since its debut, has stood for
dynamism, practicality and style.
Meeting the demands of the executive requiring dynamic on-road agility and large
load carrying ability, the new model adds a refined, stylish look and a host
of innovative technologies, ensuring that the Touring really is the estate car
of choice.
First sold in 1991, the BMW 5 Series Touring defined the premium estate segment
and a host of innovations offered on the new version set it apart from its rivals.
Not only can this all-new Touring model come with Dynamic Drive and Active Steering,
two features that hone ride and handling, but the first ever Head-up Display system
offered on a BMW will debut in the autumn.
Run-flat tyres also feature as does a Panoramic roof for open-air motoring.
