2011 BMW 5 Series TwinPower Turbo Technology

With its timeless profile and contours that impress, the gracefully chiseled body of the 2011 BMW 5 Series Sedan expresses the essence of BMW design. But it is not simply a superficial attraction. You’ll find equal attention to detail has been paid to the entire vehicle. The cabin serves as a master class in functional comfort, from the Black Panel Display technology that awakens to glowing life at the press of the Start button, to the new Parking Assistant feature that selects and then helps pilot you into parking spaces. Under the hood, BMW’s TwinPower Turbo engines have become more fuel efficient, giving you even more reasons to keep driving longer. Each of these aspects is compelling on its own. Incorporated into a single, symphonic whole, the result is no less than class-leading. The 2011 BMW 5 Series Sedan resets the standards. It’s a difference that rewards drivers, passengers and onlookers alike.

In crafting a perfectly balanced model of power, the engine is at the heart of the issue. With no fewer than three engine choices, the allnew BMW 5 Series Sedan offers classic pulse-raising BMW performance  including, in the 550i, a stunning 4.4-liter, 400-hp TwinPower Turbo V-8 engine with High Precision Direct Injection. In the 535i and 550i, a 6-speed manual and two new 8-speed automatic transmissions not only harness this power perfectly, they also enhance fuel efficiency. It’s the most thrilling way to take flight in our latest masterpiece.

2011 BMW 5 Series is TwinPower Turbo technology. This innovative turbocharging technology efficiently reclaims the energy contained in exhaust gases, using two turbochargers (550i) or a twin-scroll charger (535i). Both feature High Precision direct fuel injection, while the 535i also features BMW’s Valvetronic technology, which helps the engine “breathe” better and virtually eliminates turbo lag.

BMW Parking Assistant. Love driving your BMW, but have a tough time with parallel parking? The Parking Assistant feature prepares your 5 Series to park itself in nearly any space that’s at least four feet longer than the vehicle. Simply press the button, drive under 22 mph, and keep within five feet of the row of parked cars either on the left or right side. Once your BMW detects a viable parking
space, a green light will appear on the control display. Put the vehicle in reverse, take your
hands off the wheel, and press the accelerator or brake pedal. Your BMW takes care of the rest.

Integral Active Steering. When equipped with Integral Active Steering, at speeds up to 30 mph, a small turn of the steering wheel yields a greater turn of the front wheels for more direct response. It also steers the rear wheels up to 2.5 degrees in the opposite direction, giving the effect of a shortened
wheelbase for enhanced maneuverability. When changing lanes at speeds over 50 mph, both front and rear wheels turn in the same direction, giving the feel of an extended wheelbase. While you experience greater responsiveness and directional stability, your passengers enjoy greater ride comfort from reduced body roll.

Driving Dynamics Control. By pressing a button, you can adjust the all-new 2011 BMW 5 Series Sedan’s driving characteristics. Choose from four settings: comfort, normal, sport and sport, to adjust shock-absorber firmness, engine-throttle response, transmission shift characteristics and power-steering assist. In addition, the traction control feature can be disengaged when driving on sand, gravel, or deep or packed snow. With Adaptive Drive, the damper settings can also be individually selected, for total comfort on longer journeys.
