Entering the market in mid-May 2004, the third-generation 5 Series Touring is rounding off the new BMW 5 Series as a whole, providing supreme harmony of sporting performance, refined comfort, spacious dimensions, and practical function all in one. This elegant new car is therefore an ideal partner for business, family, and leisure time. Either as standard equipment or as an option, the Touring comes with all the highlights in technology and safety features boasted by the new, innovative BMW 5 Series Saloon, such as Active Steering, Dynamic Drive, Head-Up Display as well as Adaptive Headlights. And in comparison with its predecessor, the new model offers a much larger and even more variable luggage compartment with convenient access thanks to automatic operation of the tailgate.
