BMW unveiled the seventh generation of the 5 Series sedan in January 2017 at the North American International Auto Show, followed by the station wagon version in February same year.
While the first two generations of the 5 Series were not available with a long roof version, the G31 model became the fifth 5 Series Touring. It was based on the same CLAR platform used by the 7 Series and provided not only an elegant solution for those who needed a larger family vehicle but also came with some unique features not available for its sedan brother.
Sporting a front fascia that resembled the previous generation, the F11, the G31 5 Series was more of an evolution. It featured headlights with integrated LED daytime running lights and standard Xenon bulbs, which eased night driving. Its grille featured vertical slats that could close to speed-up heating time and keep the engine warm for a longer time than cars not featuring such a treat. The car's profile revealed a vent behind the front wheel wells, although it was mostly cosmetic than functional. On the station wagon version, BMW used different rear doors than for the Sedan. In addition, the carmaker added the third set of windows between the C- and D-pillars. At the back, the 5 Series Touring had a raked-forward tailgate adorned on the upper side with a small roof spoiler.
Thanks to its long roof, the car could be fitted with a large, opening glass roof that was 900 mm (2.9 ft) wide and 1,052 mm (3,5 ft) long, which was not available for the Sedan. Inside, there were no differences between the Sedan and the Touring for the front seats. The rear occupants, though, sat on a 40/20/40 split-folding bench that could expand the trunk from a respectable 520 liters (18.4 cu-ft) to 1,700 liters (60 cu-ft).
Under the hood, BMW installed a wide choice of engines, just like the sedan version, although it didn't sport the Motorsport versions offered by its brother.
