As you can seen, BMW is going full steam ahead with their Touring (wagon) (F11) variant of the upcoming 5-Series. If you ask me, I'm not exactly sure how the interplay betwen this car and the 5-series GT will be, but regardless the car is coming and as you can see the tape is slowly being peeled off.
BMW Insider Scott says the following:
Quote:
It is true both the GT and the upcoming 5er will share the same bloodline but there are noticeably different details to signify the cars are not one variant of the other , The 5er sedan is more stretched with a lower wheelbase whilst the GT has a more upright stance to it as we said it is halfway between the commanding position of an X5 and the lower position of a typical 5er.
Compared to the 7er there are key differences as well such as the sculpture along the lower edges of the car and the front and rear end of the car with a less height and more wider twin kidney grille leading some of the key changes.
