The 2021 BMW 5 Seriesfacelift is officially out. BMW will likely launch the new 5 Series LCI in India in the first half of 2021.
The 2021 BMW 5 Series has a more expressive exterior design, and it looks notably sportier. There’s a lot of BMW 3 Series resemblance in the new model. Sleeker headlights, new kidney grille with a single-piece surround and protruding bars, new front and rear aprons and tweaked rear lights are the main exterior changes.
LED headlights with U-shaped DRLs are standard, and there are two new optional LED headlights for an even more striking exterior. The optional headlights use two L-shaped light tubes positioned next to one another, serving as the DRLs. The outer-end DRL doubles as the turn indicator. The adaptive LED headlights, unlike in the old car, come with matrix technology for an increased range. Similarly, adaptive LED headlights with laser light technology can be specified in not only the top-of-the-line variants but all the variants.

The interior of the 2021 BMW 5 Series also has considerable revisions. The main new feature inside the new car is BMW Live Cockpit Professional that consists of a 12.3-inch customisable virtual instrument cluster and a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system. The steering wheel and the multifunction buttons on them are also new. Unlike the old car, the new car will offer Android Auto support right from launch.
Like the 2021 BMW 6 Series, the 2021 BMW 5 Series features a dashcam that allows the driver to shoot a driving scene of 40 seconds and, in the case of a collision, automatically records a period of 20 seconds before and after the event. Similarly, unlike in its predecessor, all the conventional four- and six-cylinder engines are equipped with 48-volt mild-hybrid technology. Moreover, there's also a new 545e xDrive plug-in hybrid variant in the range.
