Bengaluru. BMW India has opened bookings for the first-ever BMW i5 Long Wheelbase today. The car will be locally produced in India. Proudly becoming the second electric BMW model to roll out of BMW Group Plant Chennai, the BMW i5 Long Wheelbase is also the first locally produced electric sedan from BMW India. The luxurious EV sedan can be booked across the authorized BMW dealer network, with special access for customers at Bangalore’s premier dealership, KUN Exclusive. Customers can also register their interest on the BMW India website.
The BMW 5 Series has long dominated its position as the world’s most loved executive luxury sedan. For the progressive customers in Bengaluru’s luxury segment, the first-ever BMW i5 Long Wheelbase brings together an unparalleled combination of space, rear-seat comfort, technology, and a refined electric interpretation of Sheer Driving Pleasure, which is in BMW’s DNA.
What makes the i5 LWB truly special is how effortlessly it matches the expectations of BMW i7 aspirants. Buyers looking for flagship-level luxury will find that the i5 bridges the gap perfectly. With its sprawling rear cabin, it delivers an i7-like chauffeur-driven experience in the executive segment. The First Edition even includes a dedicated rear-seat entertainment package, ensuring that rear passengers enjoy maximum comfort and connectivity, mirroring the flagship i7 appeal.
The first-ever BMW i5 Long Wheelbase stands as the largest and longest sedan in its segment in terms of size (5,175 mm length, 2,156 mm width, 1,520 mm height). The commanding 3,105 mm wheelbase means extra space for the rear passengers who want to travel in utmost luxurious comfort. Powering this electric sedan is a robust electric motor delivering 268 hp of instantaneous power, propelling from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.7 seconds.
Equipped with an advanced 81.6 kWh high-voltage battery pack, the i5 delivers an exceptional, anxiety-free driving range of up to 669 km (MIDC) on a single charge, ideal for navigating daily Bangalore traffic or weekend getaways to Coorg or Chikmagalur. Designed to conquer local road conditions, it features an adaptive rear-axle air suspension and enhanced ground clearance that guarantees superior ride comfort over city speed breakers and uneven terrains.
Marking the arrival of the first-ever BMW i5 LWB, BMW India launches an exclusive First Edition, limited to only 99 customers. The interior gets an exclusive BMW Individual Silver Bronze accent combined with Fineline open-pored fine-wood trim and Silver Bronze inlay. Distinctive ‘FIRST EDITION’ laser engraving on the dashboard trim further underscores its exclusivity. The First Edition combines the elegant Carbon Black Metallic exterior paint finish with striking Titanium Bronze exterior accents.
For buyers in the city, KUN Exclusive in Bangalore is offering highly attractive BMW Financial offers on the i5. Customers can take advantage of exclusive tailored EMI plans, assured buyback value programs, and flexible financing terms designed specifically to make the transition to electric luxury seamless.
For those who prefer a more elevated SUV stance but still want exceptional cabin space, BMW India has also introduced the recently launched BMW X1 LWB at around 49.9 lakhs, adding another spacious and luxurious option to their impressive portfolio.
