The latest spy photos of BMW i5 travel version have been exposed, equipped with dual-motor four-wheel drive system.

CTOnews.com, January 3 (Xinhua)-- the BMW 5 series has had its biggest restructuring in its 51-year history. With the launch of the eighth generation, the series's first-ever electric model is ready for launch, and it is now under winter testing.

The model is likely to be unveiled sometime this spring with the new BMW 5-Series, which has the same relationship as the BMW 7-Series and the i7, but the "I" indicates that it will be an all-electric car.

Unlike the BMW i4, iX and XM, which are independent products, the i5 is a brand new 5-series model, and as these spy photos show, the all-electric model will offer both a sedan and a station wagon, looking very modern.

CTOnews.com found that the headlights of the BMW i5 travel version still use the conventional styling design, and the new car will use a hidden door handle design, which can further reduce the wind resistance coefficient of the whole car. In addition, the test car may be a high-performance positioning M60 because of the eye-catching red brake calipers and M-style rearview mirrors.

If this is the top M60 version, it may use the same 610hp (619PS) dual-motor all-wheel drive as the iX M60 SUV with an acceleration time of 3.8s or less from 0 to 100km / h.

Of course, it can also use the same 111.5 kWh battery as the 516 horsepower (523 PS) xDrive50 or 76.6 kWh battery of the 322 PS xDrive40.
