But to stay on the topic, I would like to show you these latest renderings from the UK based Car Magazine. They decided to approach this from two angles, a front-end computer generated image of the sedan version and the rear-end of the Wagon variant.
Their image is quite similar to the one made by Andy Valencia and posted by us yesterday, but it lacks some small details. The front-grille reminds us of the new 7 Series, an inspiration for all the artists these days. But unfortunately, it’s quite different since the one in the new 5 Series is a bit wider and positioned lower.
In this photo, the BMW roundel is placed on the hood, which is one thing we know 100% sure that it will be integrated into the front-bumper, as seen in the bumper photo or the new BMW Z4 design. Also, the two central creases on the hood, forming a V, are not similar to the ones seen in the leaked image, where the V-shape is less wide, if I were to make an analogy, I would say it’s close to an “U”.
The seemed to have gotten the bumper leaked photo as well, since the front-bumper is almost identical.
Now let’s move to the rear-end.
While there are less information about the rear-end design and not many good spy photo either, we had to ask around and see what we find out. Apparently, the rear-end rendering is one on the right track, but not fully there yet. The taillights are very similar, it just needs more of an L-Shape, but not too close to the ones on the 7 Series. They will be definitely smaller in size and with a more dynamic shape.
