5 Series GT combines everything that you need - sportiness, elegance, luxury and versatility.

The exterior is typical for the BMW AG's cars. Nice elegant curves, aggressive front and stylish rear end of the car. Probably the most beautiful and interesting thing in the car are the four doors, which have frameless windows, which makes the car look more like coupe than a sedan.

Inside the car is as luxurious as the 7 series, so the standard equipment is at very high level.

The new BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo will arrive in BMW Centers this December. The price list will be announced closer to the on-sale date.
