2027 BMW 5 Series Trim Level Comparison

There are plenty of “S” words to describe the 2027 BMW 5 Series, like “sleek,” “stylish,” and “smooth-riding”. “Selection” is another apt one, as this sedan offers several trim options. This guide from BMW of Northwest Arkansas looks at each so you can figure out which is best for you.

The base 530i trim comes with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine that produces 255 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, along with rear-wheel drive. Inside, you’ll find heated and power-adjustable front seats and synthetic leather upholstery.
