The interior: generous space and comfort, individual luxury.
The unique feeling of space within the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo is
enhanced by the shape and design of the interior features, the interior colour
scheme, and the choice of materials. The dashboard is subdivided horizontally
and comes with a cockpit featuring Black Panel technology and a Control
Display for BMW iDrive measuring up to 10.2" in size.
Apart from the electronic gear selector lever, the switches for
Dynamic Drive Control as well as the iDrive Controller are arranged conveniently
on the centre console.
Both the driver and front passenger benefit from their slightly elevated seating
position, this so-called semi-command position allowing very comfortable and
ergonomically ideal entry to the car and providing an optimised overview of
traffic conditions in the area.
The impression of a self-contained space surrounding – or, even more appropri-
ately, cocooning – the car’s occupants is further enhanced by the harmonious
shapes and colours of the panels on the front and rear doors. The interplay of
ascending and descending lines and contours throughout the entire length of
the interior creates a homogenous picture forming an optimum link connecting
the front and rear seats.
As an alternative to the rear-seat bench for three passengers featured as
standard, with individual adjustment of seat four-and-aft position as well as the
backrest angle on all seats, the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo is available as an
option with two single seats at the rear, in which case fore-and-aft adjustment of
the seat position as well as the backrest angle, the upper section of the backrest
and the height of the headrest is all-electric. And as yet a further highlight, ambi-
ence illumination of the interior of the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo featured as
standard may be supplemented by additional light sources.
Even greater comfort when loading: two-piece tailgate and partition
between the passenger and the luggage compartments.
The two-piece tailgate featured for the first time on a BMW ensures maximum
comfort and variability when loading. The two sections offer the choice of a
small opening beneath the rear window and a large lid like on BMW’s X models.
Both sections may be opened and closed individually, with the large tailgate
featuring Soft Close Automatic.
