- The BMW 5 Series Touring has competed towards the top of its class since it was first introduced back in 1991. New for 2017 is the fifth generation of the sporty executive estate, and it’s aiming for rivals like the Mercedes E-Class Estate and the Volvo V90. So does it still have what it takes to fight for class honours? To find out, I’ll take a look at its interior design, practicality, infotainment system and hit the road in my full in-depth review.

carwow wich sound system is in this bmw
Rc Guy
Probably the most expensive that you can upgrade
carwow After seeing Matt standing on the doors and sitting on the roof of the car, it is pretty unlikely BMW will ever lend him a car to review again...
@@NZO_BE I think it's Harmon Kardon
Enzo Dean
The Harman Kardon is the most expensive upgrade possible but I don’t this car had this top upgrade.
Did I missed the part where you come back to underfloor storage compartment in the boot?
Vaidas Kurmauskas ooooh yeah!
I was about to say that
Exactly. And no answer to this point. Shame.
Practicality video
Vaidas Kurmauskas 100th like
I still love that BMW is using knobs for ac and other things. Honestly when driving is so much better than touch screens. Good review guys.
Not anymore
@dwade3202 yep. Not any more. Luckily I bought 7 series 2021 hahah
Why is BMW not interested in putting an M5 engine in this, with an aggressive body kit?
Itumeleng Setilo because a touring and an m5 are for different purposes
That sucks, I mean we don't have a proper supercar (i8 does not count as a supercar, it doesn't). We don't have an RS6-esque model in our lineup. If you want a fast touring, you are left to leave BMW and go to Merc or Audi.
BMW ALPINA B5 ;)
Itumeleng Setilo because it won't be better than the RS6
I think it's based on what sells. For example, When BMW launched the E61 M5 Touring in 2007,they only managed to sell 1,056 of them - and that's just worldwide.
And BMW also realised that there just wasn't a strong enough business case for a lightning fast, load lugging BMW.
the amount of time and engineering gone into that car is astonishing, it's really incredible
The Net is actually designed to keep cargo from coming into the passenger cabin in a crash. Really smart safety feature
Paul Dyer I actually thought it was to keep my pet away from trespassing into the cabin.
Ialready had it in my E91 from 2007
Also had the same feature on an old 2000 330d, comes in handy for sure. I'd be disappointed if any touring newer than that didn't have it
What is it with car reviewers and interiors?
If there's loads of buttons, they say it looks "confusing".
So BMW remove 90% of the buttons and now they say "It looks bland!"
The Zanzibarbarian i guess it’s rather about the design than the amount of buttons. The e class looks a bit more posh, which I don’t really like
r u kidding me? r u that blind? its obviously for the entertainment man hahaha chill! and bmw would have not lend them the car durh
They seem to be never happy.
Those 3D rims on the dials makes them special and unique. I like those. Fully flat screen is just dull.
Just wanted to say it's awesome that you don't saddle us subscribers with every single video, like the infotainment ones that less people are interested in. Love the reviews, keep them up !
E class estate vs 5 series touring vs A6 avant
there is no place for audi between merc and bimmer
VLAD THE IMPALER rubbish
Yeah mostly because it still manages to compete even though it's the last generation. Last generation mercs E and bmw 5's were garbage in comparison to the A6. Wait till Audi launches the new A6 and it's gonna be the same thing all over again
VLAD THE IMPALER I know it's not that premium but it's really up there, especially the interior
VLAD THE IMPALER I actually prefer Audi and BMW over Mercedes
I just love the 5 series wagon trunk, already on the e61 they had all those smart features and also some cargo dividers that are just genius... And my favorite thing, the opening hatch that can open independent from the trunk door
Loved that Shade.. 😍😍😍😍
Nice
Such a nice car!
How does the 5series estate compare to the suv alternative of the x5? Does it offer same space internally but better driving capability?
Altough I love Mat's reviews, I must admit that he is very harsh with the cars. Not verbally but physically. He pulls and pushes and turns every button, door, handle or whatever very aggressively as if he owned the car for 5 years. Don't know if he notices it, but when he started opening these storage compartments on the BMW I expected them to fall off
He's testing durability stop being such a softy
I’ve just bought a 68 plate one of these. Probably the favourite car I’ve purchased in 20 years, all the car you’ll ever need. Alongside my Alfa 156 that obviously blew up.
How is it now?
My dad is called Gary and he bought a 20 plate 5 series this week and also owned a 156 about 21 years ago! How funny!
I'm fact it had been his dream car since he was in his early 20s and he loves it, always saying why would anyone need to buy anything more!
That just looks bloody great!!! 5 stars from me. My 335d replacement. 🔥👌🏼👍🏼
Great video as always, Mat! Keep It up.
So if the seats aren't comfy enough you can just sit on the roof and make your way down the highway. Nice!
Or if theres a pretty lady You just make her sit on your lap.
@@mrsmith5846 huh
I find your reviews enjoyable, in fact so much that i nowadays watch them as soon as they come out no matter what car it is about, (off course i like your Volvo reviews a liiitle more) ....good job! Greeting from Sweden...
Matt you said you would come back to the underfloor storage later in the video - but did you? 3:41
Got it in almost exact same trim. Really good car. Fuel economy is on par with 2l diesel.
That old 90s BMW 5 series touring in the middle arm rest. Nice touch!
You don't climb WITH SHOES on such a fantastic new car. Shame!
I know what a f muppet
Thomas Frank you so bloody so if you got what it takes. Don’t be such a wuss.
Thomas Frank if you watch his reviews he never has any respect for the vehicles or an ounce of mechanical sympathy. I think it’s a “size” thing and he likes to dominate. Anyone who finds the M steering wheel too thick has wussies hands !
It's is a review model, destined to be binned
It's probably why someone jumped on the roof of his porsche. Karma is a bitch.
I love the New BMW design, seems like this is the gen is where they really shake off those atrocities from the Bangle era.
Riswan Ahmad P. You call this design from 15 years ago "new"?
Rankon it's not about the logo, lol. All cars keep their logo and Merc is an example of change is design. BMW and Audi use the same outdated ones.
The saloon car looks like a Kia from the side and an autistic jumbled up BMW from the back. I don't think that they should have taken the 7 series crap front...
Well design is always a question of taste. I personally love the design and think that it's decent step towards the correct direction. On the other hand, I like the design of the new mercs but they just look too similiar to each other. It's hard to differentiate between an S or an E class for example.
Rankon i agree that mercs look too similar to each other between its current classes, but at least they don't look the same between both classes and different generations like bmw and audi.
Hi Matt, what is your choice- X5 G05 or 5 touring G31 ?
Hi Matt, what premium estate car is better than this?
I'm not loving all of BMWs design language right now, but that's a good looking estate. And those wheels are so cool. If they did the 550m in estate trim that would be incredible
OMG BEAUTIFUL INTERIOR DESIGN!!!!!!!!!
A positive bmw feature missed here are the auto adaptive LED Headlights. They are incredible in terms of maximising night visibility safely. Consider doing a group night drive test for those very high/ low hemisphere country's where we have VERY long winter nights.
Can you do A6, so we get the 3 ones to compare?
Amazingn0ne It's still hasn't been refreshed
The a6 is obselete compared to the e class and 5 series
leo r and the new one will be flawed to begin with because they'll likely stick with the same engine layout and poor dynamics. Still, it will look the best inside and out and that counts for a lot.
New one needs to come out
great video as usual please make one on ford kuga hyundai tucson and seat ateca comparative peace
My favourite car channel!
Great reviw thanks man!
None of your reviews mention of the rear steering - is it worth having / any good?
Is the remote parking and parking assist a standard feature on the 5 series?
that e34 picture under the armrest. attention to details. love ur reviews boy
When Mat reviews a bmw, sure hell yeah i m coming over and check it out
There is a space underneath bootfloor, and there is a grey sticker wich tells how to place two parcel shelves. You can see when he open cover.
can you please do a mercedes e-class estate review🙏🏻
BMW M140i isn't available on Carwow to configure
9:46 wow that looks so cool!
The M5 Touring in the center console was brilliant.
That paint colour is beautiful...anyone know which BMW colour is that?
I really appreciate that you had a OnePlus 3!! Shows that you are someone who is really up with the times!
This is my dream car! I loved the review love to see more in future videos on other BMW's! :)
What a car!!! By the way, I love the dials, I mean the rings arround it...
Mat you are doing awesome
Matt I love ur vids but on the digital display the "plastic curves "are not plastic , it's steal
And I actually love that design in stead of a full display because it's not a standard car anymore
I think it is extremely important to include the price of the car featured in the video. These videos are very nice but can be frustrating being told that the prices start from £38k whilst the car featured costs more like £50-60k perhaps?
is the inside the cabin quiet or noisey a while driving in the road
He says it's not the best in it's class but doesn't even point out which car is.
what is the load capacity of the boot ( in Kg)
Keep up with the good work :)
I love the colour!
whats up with the massive hinges in the back when u fold down the backseats. holy shit i haven't seen that on the competition.
You get climate control as standard? In 2017? In a BMW 5? Fuck me....woooow
I think he meant automatic air conditioning (a.k.a climatronic). You'll be surprised how many expensive cars still have it as an option.
Give me the list of those cars...
Well, yeah, I take my words back. It's obviously standard on all similarly priced cars...
That's a beautiful wagon.
BMW
Hey Matt, please review the Panamera Sport Turismo when you have a chance! It's the ultimate station wagon!
Mat prefers Android over iOS? Officially the best car reviewer out there IMO.
Could you do a BMW 3 Touring review? Thankful for answer!
That paintwork is beautiful
Im just wondering how come the car doesn't think you're doing some of the hand gestures when you move your hands about when you were talking?
You never did go back to the thing in the boot?
good review and good car :)
He didn't show that threre is space for rhe boot cover snd net in the underfloor storage. So you dont hsve to leave them propped up in the garage (like in other cars) you can stow them in the car along with all your gear.
That car is completely stunning
Please do a 3 series touring review Matt!!!!
damn that color
Lovely colour.
That 3D camera thingy is so cool........ imagine showing it off to your friends XD
Pweh - got a little worried there for a while. But then I saw the M9 and all is good. (psst - get the U11)
Great work as usual.
Just seen one of these at Available Car and now I don’t want anything else. It was superb. When my Tiguan is due to be returned I’m having one of these. Trouble is I like my options ticked and this has many many option for many many pounds. But I’d be happy with adaptive LED lights and suspension
loving the new 5s
Whats the differense between the 2017????
Well what is the best premium estate?
The newish X3 G01 or this 5 series touring?
As a Jag fan I have to admit the tech on this makes me envious, if only the XF Sportbrake had such innovation...
Which is the best premium estate, then?
Now we need the review of E Class Estate :)
Inline six engines are silkily smooth. It's the simplest arrangement with perfect primary and secondary balance.
Wait two of the cons are not really cons. The fat steering wheel is one of the best if not the best feeling steering wheel in the business, and the trim around the dials looks amazing. Gives the car a unique look compared to just an LCD panel in front of you.
Obsessedgarage would slap u for that intro bit :0
You say the 2 litre is probably as good, but what about when its loaded with 4 adults and truck load of holiday gear. Is the 4 cylinder ok then?
carwow + BMW = my life complete
the classiest 'Ghost Whippin' i''ve seen!
This has got to be better than any estate car out there,even V90
I have a small sense of déjà vu. Anyone else saw the video when they originally uploaded it?
Joaquín Sánchez thinking the same here!!! I don’t get why he did it twice
Which is the best premium estate car then? The V90 or the E-Class?
pfff. e-class is cracking at every turn, driving assistant not good as the bmw and much more. Ah, Volvo is a joke, good making trucks, not cars.
I just realised that ive been watching this channel for more than 4 years
Always wondered whether I'd get my use out of a radio controlled parking extra, I'd love the ones where I can turn on all the heating from my bedroom in the morning though
Combat Goose: Yeah, my mate has just bought a new Jaguar XE and can fire his heater up from his mobile phone. I am dead envious as I do not have a garage and it's a bugger going out to a car covered in frost at 5am.
Had no idea the XE could get that, I'll have to recommend that to a friend
Yeah, he (well, it's his wife's car) has the sport model (swapped an XF Porfolio for it). I was showing him the Peugeot app for my 3008 SUV and he compared it to his Jag app. The only real difference was the remote heating. The car remains locked with the engine running, but even if it was entered unlawfully, the pop up auto gear knob remains in the locked position. I'm sure remote heating wasn't an option on my car. I realised I should have had it as an option on my BMW 5 series when I turned my garage into a gym.
Why was the first video taken down?
0:01 that's how you should drive through london ^^
The luggage area arrangements are pretty similar to what I had in a 2012 Mazda6 Estate. The moveable net arrangement is nearly identical. Difference with this car is that road noise doesn't tear off your ears like happens in the Mazda. If you've the money, buy the BMW.
you should review the s class cabriolet
What were you going to say about the under floor storage in the boot? You didn't get back to speak about it though you said you would !
If i only had one question to Mat.. What is your favourite daily driver you have owned?
You didnt go back to the boot Matt
8:22
Big true👍🏻😂😂
