BMW 5 Series (2000-2004)
BMW 520i saloon
Within the BMW 5 Series, the BMW 520i was the entry into the world of 6-cylinder petrol engines. All these
engines epitomise dynamic driving pleasure and silky-smooth running. This is particularly true for the version with displacement of two litres. New engines from 2001 increased the power from the original level of 150 hp
to 170 hp. Innovative technologies like variable valve timing (Vanos) and the world's first lightweight alloy chassis manufactured in large-scale production helped to reduce fuel consumption.
