New BMW 5-Series with M Performance Kit
The 2017 BMW 5-Series may have only just debuted but
the German brand has wasted no time in launching a range of M Performance
accessories for the model.
The new 5-Series will be available
in a range of variants, including the M550i xDrive. Soon, the M
Performance accessories will become available to customers, with different
add-ons and upgrades available for the wide array of 5-Series versions on
offer.
For example, owners of the 540i will be able to opt
for the BMW M Performance Power and Sound Kit which increases power from the
six-cylinder by 34 hp up to 360 hp while torque rises by 50 Nm to 500 Nm. This
package can also be joined by chrome or carbon fiber tailpipe trims. Elsewhere,
540i, 540i xDrive, 530i and 530i xDrive can be optioned with a new stainless
steel sports silencer and circular or trapezoid-shaped tailpipe trims in chrome
or carbon fiber.
As for the selection of diesel 5-Series’, BMW has
developed the M Performance Power Kit which adds 27 hp and 30 Nm of torque to
the 530d and 530d xDrive.
Across the range, 20-inch alloy wheels are also
available as is a sports brake system that includes red 4-piston aluminium
calipers up front and single-piston calipers at the rear. Other components on
offer include the M sports package and M aerodynamics package which consists of
distinctive bumpers, carbon wing mirror caps, a rear diffuser and carbon fiber
rear spoiler. Parts made of polyurethane can also be specced.
Rounding out the most noticeable changes are a
number of interior tweaks including a BMW M Performance steering wheel finished
in alcantara as well as new shift paddles.
