The story

The G60 debuted in the spring of 2023 and reached US dealers in October, as a 2024 model. It rides on an updated CLAR platform shared with the G70 7 Series. CarGurus, Edmunds, a published reference

CarGurus calls it the biggest 5 Series ever, with styling that bears little resemblance to any earlier one, shaped for a drag coefficient of 0.22 or 0.23. The 530i and 540i are mild hybrids, and the electric version is sold as the i5. CarGurus, Edmunds, a published reference

The 550e xDrive plug-in hybrid joined for 2025, and Edmunds calls the 2026 car unchanged. Edmunds, CarGurus

Watch out

Faults owners and the press report, and how to spot each one.

• Controls moved onto the screen All years

  Check: On the test drive, try the climate, media and driving settings through the touchscreen.

  Edmunds lists the onscreen controls among the car's drawbacks, and CarGurus says the controls have irked many reviewers and the system is complex to learn. Edmunds, CarGurus

• The integrated brake system recalls All years

  Check: Ask for proof that every brake system recall has been done, and watch for ABS or stability control warnings on the test drive.

  NHTSA lists several recalls for the integrated brake system on 2024 and 2025 cars, for faults that can lose power brake assist or stop the ABS and stability control working properly. NHTSA

Recalls

Newest first. Ask the seller for proof the work was done, or check the VIN with NHTSA.
