BMW 5 Series vs 6 Series

Any BMW model can offer drivers an engaging road experience and premium luxury, but which model is idea for luxury shoppers? In this BMW 5 Series vs 6 Series comparison, we are going to look at two high-end models. The BMW 5 Series is a midsize sedan that offers several confident and fuel-efficient engine options. In the 2017 model year, the starting engine in this model is a four-cylinder. In contrast, the BMW 6 Series is available in either coupe or convertible body styles, and its starting engine for 2017 is an inline six-cylinder that offers significantly more engine power. Because of the more powerful engine (and the premium standard features, which will vary according to model year and exact trim chosen) the BMW 6 Series has a much more expensive starting MSRP. The four-door BMW 5 Series is available in its base model for much less, and offers more interior space and seating. However, for drivers who want the wind in their hair and sleek two-door styling options, the BMW 6 Series is the only choice. We’ve compared a recent model year of these two vehicles below to give you an idea of how they stack up.

BMW 5 Series and 6 Series Trunk Space

When comparing the BMW 5 Series vs the 6 Series, it is worth mentioning that the 5 Series offers more interior space.

The trunk of the BMW 5 Series has approximately two and a half cubic feet more space than the trunk of the BMW 6 Series, and it seats five passengers instead of the four passenger who can fit in the BMW 6 Series.
