　　BMW i5 is expected to be officially released in October this year and will be made in China next year. But just recently, the official map of BMW i5 was leaked. It is worth noting that the exterior and interior of the new BMW 5 Series will adopt the same design as that of the BMW i5, and they will be jointly developed.

　　From the exposed pictures, we can see that BMW i5 will adopt BMW’s latest family-style design, and the front face shape is more tough than the cash. The air intake grille adopts polygonal design, and the decorative strips around the grille are full and powerful, and equipped with the same luminous mesh as the i7. The headlights of the new car have also adopted a brand-new style, and the outline of the headlights is more detailed.

　　The side of the car body adopts a more capable body design, the C-pillar of the new car looks more streamlined, and the corner style at the end of the window has changed obviously, which is the same as the new 7 Series. At the same time, the new car is also equipped with a hidden handle and large wheels.

　　The overall shape of BMW i5 interior is simple and tough, and the design language is in line with i7, with dual screens and crystal atmosphere lights. It is reported that BMW i5 will be equipped with a brand-new steering wheel. There may be some differences between the sports version and the luxury version. The sports version may adopt a three-position steering wheel, and the luxury version may adopt a two-position steering wheel. The car will be equipped with iDrive 8.5 operating system, which may improve the overall interface, ease of operation and screen sensitivity.

　　In terms of power, the BMW i5 will provide both eDrive 40 and M60 xDrive, and the entry-level model will be equipped with a rear motor with a maximum power of 250kW(335 HP). The M60 is equipped with a stronger dual motor with a maximum power of 440kW(590 HP).

　　Editor’s summary: BMW 5 Series has always been the best-selling medium-sized and large-sized car in its class, and now it is about to be replaced, with brand-new styling, more intelligent configuration, and a pure electric version of i5, which makes BMW 5 Series in a comprehensive layout of fuel, pure electricity and hybrid. I believe that its arrival will also make the sales of BMW brand further.
