GAS & BATTERY GUZZLER

2023 BMW 5 Series 530e 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo gas/electric plug-in hybrid 8A)

My local BMW dealership let me use this car as a loaner while mine was being serviced. I was excited to drive a hybrid to test out the electric and gas options. I can tell you that after driving this car for a week I DO NOT RECOMMEND! I filled it up with gas and not even a day later I was back in E with minimal driving. I then charged the battery up overnight to 100% and decided to drive to work (on full electric) which is 10 miles away and by the time I got to work the battery was on 0%!!!! It said I could drive about 16 miles on a full battery but that did not prove to be true. I was excited to return this car to the dealer because it was eating up my money getting gas every two days and charging the battery using a little more electricity than normal at home.

The acceleration. control and ‘feel of the road’ od a BMW is unmatched. The weight of this V-8 gives stability driver such a sense of stability

This beautiful M550 responses when you wish is reliable in 3 1/2 years has never given me a problem. The custom paint that I had put on makes his truly and beautiful car to admire. You should know that I’ve had six five series BMWs in the last 30 years and this is the first one I’ve held for longer than two years. One of them picked up in Germany and drove on the autobahn. The rest were just normal every day drive to work cars. This is the same one, but it’s a classic gorgeous BMW, when it starts to give me trouble, I will have difficulty departing with it.

I’m 80 years old and traded in 21 M5 comp for 23 530e x drive demo. M5 was awesome but got to be too much for me. I’m retired so most trips are fully electric which results in little or no gas usage. I got a loaded car with M sport , executive and other options. MSRP was around $76,000. I’m enjoying passing gas stations and I have plenty of power for my needs.
