The 2025 BMW 530i Sedan is the volume four-cylinder model of the eighth-generation G60 5 Series, built on BMW's CLAR architecture. Its B48 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four makes 255 hp (190 kW) and 295 lb-ft, supplemented by a 48-volt mild-hybrid starter-generator and driving the rear wheels through a ZF 8-speed Steptronic automatic. BMW quotes 0-100 km/h in 5.9 seconds for the rear-drive car, and the EPA rates it at 31 mpg combined. Larger and more aerodynamic than the outgoing G30, with a drag coefficient as low as 0.22-0.23, it remains the benchmark midsize executive sedan.
