Although the BMW 5 series has been in the Auto market since 44 years, the Auto maker still continues to maintain its position with new remarkable releases every year. With the recent unveil of the new G30 addition to the 5 Series, BMW has now teamed up with the Chinese company Brilliance, for the new 2017 long wheelbase 5Li Model.
2017 BMW 5 series with the new G30 model is on the same traditional path as that of the other top-class cars from the manufacturer. With more than 7.6 million cars sold since the company started, BMW probably wants to take the figure higher with the launch of a new 5Li Model with a longer wheelbase. Here's what we know about the new 2017 BMW 5 Li Series Model So far:
What to expect from the 2017 BMW 5 Li?
BMWBlog reports that the BMW 5 Li Series will be manufactured exclusively for Chinese buyers for now. To arrive in the market next year, the Long Wheelbase BMW 5 Series will make its world premiere most likely at the Beijing Auto Show in April 2018. To debut in the first quarter of 2018 as a long-wheelbase version for the Chinese market, a prototype of the 2017 BMW 5 Li was reportedly spied undergoing tests on the road. BMW has formed a joint venture with the Chinese company Brilliance for manufacturing the 2017 BMW 5Li.
What's new in the 2017 BMW 5 Li Series?
The latest model will feature four and six cylinder engines, which are expected to be the hybrid versions of the earlier counter-parts. However, the M models, as well as the eight-cylinder models, will probably be available only as imports.
The Wheelbase appears to be well extended by almost ten centimeters so as to make more space in the back of the 2017 BMW 5 Series addition. The extension is clearly noticeable if you follow the roof line of the Car from its B-pillar to the end. The 2017 BMW 5 Li Model's dimensions are expected to be 194.6 x 83.7 x 58.2 inches and will be able to attain a top speed of 130-155mph.
Weighing about 4,000 lbs, the car should have a faster acceleration rate than that of the G30 going from 0 to 60 MPH in just 6.0 seconds. The long wheelbase BMW 5 Li is also expected to have a layout configuration of 4-door and will easily accommodate 5-passengers. The 2017 BMW 5 Li is reported to come packed with the same technological advances and also the premium materials, which the standard BMW 5 Series cars feature. The Car is expected to have a better safety system than that of the G30 model.
2017 BMW 5 Li Release Date And Price:
The production version of the 2017 BMW 5 Li will most likely make a debut at the Beijing Auto Show in April. Although no official announcement has yet been made, the new addition to BMW 5 Series is expected to have a base price of $55,000. The long wheelbase BMW 5Li will compete with several top-class competitors including the Audi A6L, Mercedes E-Class L and the Jaguar XFL.
