Used 2019 BMW 5 Series Consumer Reviews
Smooth ride, pleasantly powerful enough
Decided to go hybrid to get significantly better gas mileage. Assumed I would be sacrificing power and driving pleasure. I was pleasantly surprised. Plenty of torque, lots of comfort and features. Easy to lose track of speed in highway. Have been 40+ miles per gallon. UPDATE: Went from 535ix to 530xe. I was nervous about going from a 6 to a 4 cyl engine.. I was pleasantly surprised and the assist you get from the electrical motor makes you completely forget about the difference in HP. The 40+ miles per gallon for my usage habit is also a pleasant surprise. This is my 4th BMW and there will be a 5th; when I am done with this one I will be looking for another BMW Plug in Hybrid (X5-50e).
Love this car
Love my BMW!!! Getting the Euro style and great handling and love having a hybrid, getting great mileage with plug in charge. I love that this car can pre heat in the morning and be ready for my morning commute. Easy to plug into my existing garage 110v plug for an overnight charge.

This vehicle brought problems
Buyers beware! I purchased a pre-owned 2019 530e series and at first I was happy with it. This all came to an end when I started to have issues with what I keep saying is the transmission. This is not my first rodeo having a vehicle with Transmission issues so I know what to look out for and how the drive feels. When I say I have reported the ongoing issue with my car jerking and feeling like it’s about to shut off while driving more than 10 x’s it’s the amount of times I have proof of. However, all the times I’ve taken it in to the BMW service department, I was first told that there weren’t any codes so they couldn’t identify any issues. Then the times they’ve tried to fix it, the issue seems to get worse. I paid $45K for a lemon. By now I’m over owning a BMW and want BMW to take ownership and replace or buy back my car. If it weren’t for the warranty covering all the band aid repairs, I’d probably be bankrupt by now. Please do not buy a hybrid as my experience has been everything but good.

One man’s junk is another man’s treasure!
I sold my beloved 2011 Lexus LS460 with sports package and bought a leased return 2019 530 Sports Line, and I’m loving it. With the tank filled up, trip computer showed 808 miles range. It wasn’t lying! I drove to OC CA and back to Las Vegas and still had 1/4 tank of gas left, good for 144 miles, according to the trip computer. The Lexus was like a beautiful yatch, and the bummer felt like a racing boat. It’s only a few inches shorter, but fells so much more nimble and sportier. The twin turbo four is optimum engine choice for this class of car, especially with today’s gas price. I could have got the 530e, but come on, twin turbo and hybrid from BMW? It’s a disaster waiting to happen! 😅

Driving machine
My second 5 series BMW . It is definitely a driving machine and worth every penny. Driving comfort, style and performance all in one. After my 1st BMW I got a new VW Passat thinking German engineering was the same … not at all . Got rid of it after 11 months.
