Bridging the gap between sedan and SUV, the 2012 BMW 5-Series offers a modern and sophisticated luxury. You'll get a one of a kind, organic driving experience with an 8-speed steptronic automatic transmission and onboard dynamic stability control system. For even more aerodynamic handling, this crossover features lightweight aluminum front and rear subframes.
Built to handle the longest journeys, the 5-Series Gran Turismo has a roomy interior that caters to driver and passenger alike. Your favorite tunes will sound better than ever on a high-fidelity 12-speaker sound system with two subwoofers. A 3-spoke leather-wrapped multi-function steering wheel provides superb driving comfort and offers easy access to the audio system and Bluetooth wireless communication. All trims come with a panoramic moonroof, a power tilt and telescopic steering column, and interior courtesy lights with automatic dimming to take the stress out of your driving. Keen when it comes to both form and function, the 5-Series Gran Turismo is also equipped with a dual-access tailgate with a soft-close feature and a low-loading sill for convenient access to the rear compartment.
