BMW 5 Series is Once Again The World's Most Successful Business Automobile

As in the year before, the BMW 5 Series was the top-selling business model of 2013.  366,992 customers worldwide opted for a BMW 5 Series Sedan, BMW 5 Series Touring or BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo.  This once again puts the BMW 5 Series well ahead of the competition.  The model revision of the BMW 5 Series in 2013, featuring an extended range of engines, numerous additional equipment and the extensive BMW ConnectedDrive program, is a key factor contributing to its success.  The model revision selectively refreshed the exterior design of the entire BMW 5 Series family, thereby enhancing its overall presence. With its newly designed rear, the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo also offers a luggage compartment expanded by 60 litres to 500 litres. What is more, the two equipment lines Luxury Line and Modern Line along with the M Sport package allow each BMW 5 Series to be given an even more marked touch of individual flair.
