7 innovative features in the new BMW 5-series


BMW is placing a bigger focus on tech in its all-new BMW 5-Series.
In addition to semi-autonomous features, the 2017 BMW 5-series comes with smart display systems and Amazon's digital assistant Alexa. The 5-series hits dealerships this month.

BMW made a few design changes to the overall appearance of the car. It's 1.2 inches longer to increase legroom in the back, and the headlights now flow into the kidney grille.


The new BMW 5-series also offers increased trunk capacity at 18.7 cubic feet. The car comes in 13 different colors.



All of the seats in the new 5-Series have eight different massage programs, each with three different intensity modes.



When the middle seat is not in use, passengers can use a fold-down armrest with cupholders. The seat can also be completely folded down to create a pass-through to the trunk — perfect for carrying skis.


BMW is also introducing something called Evasion Aid in the new 5-Series. If a vehicle in front of the car brakes aggressively, the car will change lanes quickly to avoid a forward collision. Evasion Aid works at speeds up to 100 mph.





The car comes with the standard Comfort, Sport, and ECO driving modes. The Sport mode offers a more dynamic driving experience, while ECO is best when you're looking for efficiency.



BMW's Adaptive Drive system will adapt the driving style based on the route ahead, taking into account road conditions, curves ahead, and upcoming intersections.
