Newest BMW 5 Series (G30) Teaser Previews Tail Light Design

BIMMERPOST NEWS
Newest BMW 5 Series (G30) Teaser Reveals Tail Lights
42
COMMENTS

BMW has released another teaser video of the G30 5 Series sedan and this time they've provided a good look at the new LED tail light design. The tail lights are now longer and sleeker, having been reduced from 3 LED light bars to 2 and also elongated.






Here's how the G30 tail lights compare to the current F10's lights.

I like it.
And hopefully it will have a more even light distribution than the f10 taillights, the Audi A6 looks much nicer in that regard.

Hopefully BMW will step up their game with this car, making the handling and sound better, as I see a E43 AMG in my future.

Beside the obvious on the tails. Anyone notice the lower part of the car. It looks like vents like the 7 and the 4 series. The first picture looks better than the second. The second picture you can see that there is a reflection of something.

Yes, the G30 has already been seen to have the same vent where the 7's "hockey stick" is. However, there is no "stick" part, just the vent. Supposedly, the vent is supposed to integrated into the sheet metal and not an extra fixture like it is on the 7, but that remains to be seen.

That being said, I LOVE the G30's taillights. I'm in an E60 now, and I can't stand the F10's tails - they look awkward to me. But with this, I'm in love.

I was worried that, because Lexus has recently stolen BMW's taillight design, that the new G30's tails would look derivative, but I'm relieved to see that they look great and distinctly new.

Also looks like it's going to have that remote parking feature from a snippet in the video. Does that mean it will have the same key fob as the G12?

I was never too worried about the back end of the G30. To me that will be the best part of this car.

In the other hand, the 7er interior, and the 4er front end, that we know this car will feature, save for a few details here and there, will pretty much kill this gen for me.

Nice ! A sleek and dynamic design as opposed to bubbly E-Class tail lamps.

Just when I thought Benz cant get any more boring; the new E-Class exceeded my expectations
