The new BMW 5 Series Touring with an extended engine range

Immediately after its launch, the new BMW 5 Series Touring is also going full throttle through the introduction of further engine variants. From September 2010, two additional diesel engines and a third straight six-cylinder petrol engine will be available for the successful business touring car. The most powerful diesel model is – analogous to the saloon – the BMW 535d Touring. Thanks to a 220 kW/300 bhp straight six-cylinder engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo and Common Rail direct injection, the Touring model sprints from 0 – 100 km/h in a mere 5.7 seconds. According to the EU test cycle, average fuel consumption of the BMW 535d Touring is 6.3 litres/100 km.

The BMW 525d Touring completes the available range of diesel models. Likewise, it features a 3-litre straight six-cylinder engine plus turbo charger with variable intake geometry and Common Rail direct injection. The engine delivers 150 kW/204 bhp at 4,000 rpm, with maximum torque of 450 Nm being available between 1,750 and 2,500 rpm. The BMW 525d Touring accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds and has an average fuel consumption of 6.3 litres/100 km in the EU test cycle.

The 3-litre straight six-cylinder engine with direct petrol injection (High Precision Injection) under the bonnet of the BMW 528i Touring delivers a power output of 190 kW/258 bhp at 6,600 rpm in lean operation and achieves maximum torque of 310 Nm between 2,600 and 5,000 rpm. The BMW 528i Touring sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.9 seconds, average fuel consumption in the EU test cycle is 8 litres/100 km.
