BMW 530e advice

logie101 · 2020-02-06 12:27:03

I’m very tempted to buy a petrol hybrid and like the idea about a BMW 530e. Probably a 2018 one in from the UK if it was cheaper. Anyway, I always drive estates (currently have an A6) but there doesn’t appear to be a 530e estate option. Is this right? I’m not adverse to going back to a saloon but just like the practicality…

I’m not adverse to going back to a saloon but just like the practicality and looks of estate cars. Any general thoughts on 530e appreciates.

There is currently no 530e estate and you may not see an estate version until the next generation 5 Series gets launched in about 3 or 4 years time. The new 3 Series 330e will be available in estate form some time this year so that might be worth looking at.

There is a fairly big thread on the 530e in the EV, hybrid forum:

There’s a facelifted 5 series coming in the summer; a touring 530e is expected.
