Is the BMW 5 Series a good car?
Yes — the BMW 5 Series is a strong choice if you want a luxury sedan with broad appeal across generations. The all-generations owner rating is 4.58/5 across every model year in the data.
Owners consistently praise its powerful performance, luxurious interior, smooth handling, and comfortable ride. Reviewers also repeatedly highlight the model’s refined cabin and advanced technology, which help it feel upscale and easy to live with.
Expert reviews rate the 2018 and 2026 models among the highest across all years.
The main trade-offs that show up in expert reviews are complex technology, occasional interface quirks, and limited cargo space in some years.
34.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
Are BMW 5 Series models reliable?
Owners consistently praise the BMW 5 Series for its strong performance, luxurious comfort, and refined driving feel. Expert reviews also point to a well-equipped cabin and a premium overall experience that many shoppers value over the long term.
- Owners rate the BMW 5 Series between 4.0 and 5.0 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.
For used buyers, long-term ownership risk is tied more to upkeep and complexity than to day-to-day driving satisfaction, so a careful pre-purchase inspection matters.
What should I look for when buying a used BMW 5 Series?
Across all model years, at 74.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
| Model Year | Accident-Free % |
|---|---|
| 2026 | 97% |
| 2025 | 95.6% |
| 2024 | 90.2% |
| 2023 | 89% |
| 2022 | 85.1% |
| 2021 | 76.4% |
| 2020 | 68.7% |
| 2019 | 64.8% |
| 2018 | 62% |
| 2017 | 60.2% |
| 2016 | 59.6% |
| 2015 | 59.9% |
| 2014 | 61% |
Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2021 models.
Key things to evaluate:
- Safety package: adaptive cruise control with lane-centering assistance, plus steering-related driver assistance features governing lane changes and supporting evasive maneuvers, an emergency stop system, and Highway Assistant.
- Infotainment: a 12.3-inch configurable driver display and a 14.9-inch touchscreen infotainment display powered by BMW Operating System 8.5, with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
- Fuel efficiency: the EPA says it should return 28 mpg in combined driving, and we averaged 26.5 mpg on our Southern California testing loop.
Which BMW 5 Series trim should I buy?
The 2026 BMW 5 Series offers these trims:
- 530i: The entry model uses mild-hybrid technology to improve efficiency and comes standard with rear-wheel drive.
- 540i: This trim adds the turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, standard AWD, and the strongest blend of refinement and speed; it is the best-value trim.
- 550e: This plug-in hybrid adds electrified driving to the lineup.
- i5: This all-electric model broadens the lineup with battery-powered driving.
- i5 M60: This performance-focused electric trim adds a more powerful EV setup.
- M5: This high-performance model brings the lineup’s most serious performance focus.
- M5 Touring: This wagon-bodied version adds the M5 formula in a four-door, cargo-friendly layout.

Should I buy a used BMW 5 Series now or wait for the next model?
Buy now if:
- Price trend: The 2026 model is at −10.51% versus a year ago, and the 2025 model is at −13.88%.
- Sweet-spot year: The 2022 model has the most listings at a current average price of $33,372. The BMW 5 Series offers a refined cabin, strong road manners, and a premium driving feel that make it a compelling everyday luxury sedan.
Consider waiting if:
- Powertrain/efficiency: Fortified with a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, the 540i xDrive is effortlessly smooth, swift, and civilized, and the engine makes 375 horsepower and 384 pound-feet of torque, bumping to 398 lb-ft when the eBoost 48-volt mild-hybrid system’s electric motor offers assistance.
- Tech: It houses a 12.3-inch configurable driver display and a 14.9-inch touchscreen infotainment display, and in addition the 5 Series includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless smartphone charging, SiriusXM 360L satellite radio, and a Harman Kardon premium sound system.
- Safety: This version of the 5 Series has adaptive cruise control with lane-centering assistance, and our test car had the Driving Assistance Professional option package, which adds steering-related driver assistance features governing lane changes and supporting evasive maneuvers, an emergency stop system, and Highway Assistant.

Extensive, but at this price point ventilated seats should be included with the Premium package. Compared to the Mercedes E Class.

BMW 5 Series test drive
overall
Germany has perfected the art of the luxury car, as evidenced by the 2026 BMW 5 Series.
The BMW 5 Series is one of three cars that prove the country known for Autobahns, the Nürburgring, and Oktoberfest builds the best luxury sedans on the planet. It competes with the Audi A6 and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, each taking a distinct approach to design but measuring up closely in other parameters. The 2026 5 Series is virtually unchanged, entering its third year following a 2024 redesign, and this review is about the 540i xDrive model.
Verdict: Putting BMW’s love-it-or-hate-it design aside, the 2026 540i xDrive is a sensational automobile offering the right blend of luxury, technology, and performance. Choose the M Sport setup for maximum driving enjoyment, or stick with the standard specification to emphasize luxury. Either way, the styling is the most controversial thing about the 5 Series.
