2024 BMW i5 Touring Gives Us A Peek At Its Rear-Axle Steering | Carscoops carscoops
be reborn this year, and the arrival of an electric i5 means it will be the biggest change to the mid-size sedan in its 51-year history.
Of course, as these photos remind us, it’s not just the sedan that’s being reincarnated. Despite the popularity of SUVs,is committed to producing another generation of 5-Series wagons, and the i5 will also be offered in the more practical body style. Even if BMW hadn’t helpfully plastered “Electrified Vehicle” test stickers to both doors, we’d still be able to easily identify this test car as an i5 and not a regular 5-Series. While both will share the same basic body and ride on the same CLAR platform, much like the new 7-Series and i7 do, the electric i5 has no tailpipes at the rear, and a blanked-off grille because it has no need for cool air in the nose.
The picture below just gives us a little peek at the i5’s optional four-wheel steering, part of a package BMW calls Integral Active steering. That tech has been available on the 5-Series for years, but on the current version car wheels have a limited range of steering motion compared with rival systems.
The brakes on this car suggest it might be a high-performance M60 model with a dual-motor drivetrain and all-wheel drive. Presuming it takes its drivetrain from the iX M60 SUV that’s already on sale, it could have 610 hp and be able to sprint to 60 mph in less than 3.8 seconds.available as a 516 hp xDrive50 or as a 322 hp xDrive40, and we’d expect both of those options to be offered in the sedan and wagon to please buyers not obsessed with horsepower.
