Although wearing a bit of a fat suit, the shape is clear — a stand-out feature being the sloped roof and rear glass. There are two ways of looking at the V5. The first: a raised 5 Series wagon with fastback rear. The second: a lowered X6, which itself was only recently unveiled. Of course, the V5 will have a style all its own when the production version finally breaks cover (likely several months away). BMW calls it a progressive activity sedan, blending impressive practicality with exceptional handling. The interior is predicted to have various configurations for carrying plenty of people (up to six) and all of their stuff. Likely engines include BMW's 300-horsepower twin-turbo inline-six and a V8. Production could happen at BMW's South Carolina plant, where capacity is being beefed up.
