Muscats Motors Ltd yesterday launched the new BMW 5 Series.

The sales manager for BMW in Malta, Hugh Caruana, said the 5 Series was no newcomer. It is the fifth successful 5 Series model with 30 years of excellence in the sports sedan market. But the new 5 Series will take this tradition one step further, he said.

He said that in the past, two factors might have worried certain clients - the space at the back of the car and the boot space. These have been improved in the new Series, Mr Caruana said.

The engine options are: a straight six cylinder petrol engine or the new 3.0 litre diesel engine.

An optional feature - active-steering - consisted of a unique innovation that increases driving dynamics, safety and comfort, he said. The feature also contributes to much better road holding.
