The 2024 BMW 5 Series is almost here, as it’s set to debut sometime in the second half of 2023. So in less than a year, 2024 BMW 5 Series model will be shuttling well-to-do customers around town. But before it does, you might want to know what to expect from the new BMW 5 Series. Not only will it help you decide if you want one, it could help you decide which one you want. So let’s get started.

Electric or Gas, Take Your Pick

When the new BMW 5 Series (G60/G61) debuts, it will come with an internal combustion version (5 Series) and an electric version (i5). For each version of the 5 Series, there will be several different models available, with different powertrain options. Here’s the rundown of the models, and their powertrains, that you can expect.

But keep in mind, these are not market specific which means not all of them will come to the United States, for example. Furthermore, none of these models were confirmed by BMW, instead, we relied on sources and other information to compile the list.

  • BMW 550e PHEV (six-cylinder hybrid)
  • BMW M560e (another rumored six-cylinder hybrid, similar to the M760e)
  • Future models could follow and will be market specific

BMW i5

  • BMW i5 eDrive40 (single-motor, 335 horsepower, rear-wheel drive)

  • Additional models could follow in the future, similar to the i4 and iX

Two Different Body Styles, But Not For Everyone

As per usual, the new BMW 5 Series and electric i5 will come in two body styles, sedan and Touring (wagon). In Europe, both will be available and the latter will likely be the most popular. However, in North America, neither the 5 Series nor i5 as a Touring have been confirmed. So it remains to be seen whether the wagon will come to the U.S. market.

There’s also a BMW M5 Touring on the horizon. BMW M Boss Frank van Meel acknowledged…
