The G30 BMW 5-Series is undoubtedly one of the finest executive sedans in the market now. It offers a brilliant balance of refinement, features and driving pleasure.
In Malaysia there are two models currently on offer, the petrol powered 530i which is less powerful but feature packed. The other is the 530e, which is a plug-in hybrid that offers more power and impressive fuel savings but does not have as much features as the more expensive petrol variant.
Both are great but choosing one over the other can be a painful process. In this video, we tell you what the key differences are, and we tell you which model we would choose.

  • I rushed into purchasing a 530i Touring with a March 2018 reg. Its not bad and I am still enjoying it after 70 000 kms😊 The build quality is superb. My car has some nice features which I enjoy and use all the time such as heads-up display, heated steering (very useful in cold scandinavia), dakota leather seats, panorama roof, adaptive cruise control and spacious interiors😊

  • Just got myself the 530e 2023 with all the options, a bit disappointed in the battery pack. It's slow to charge and depletes easilty, way too easily here in the UK anyway. On pure ICE drive, it's difficult for me to say how much more lagging it is compared to the standard 530i since I haven't tried that other one.

    • I personally preferred the 530i. In Malaysia, it offered better specs and also seemed to drive better as well. Sorry for what you are facing with your car. Hope it works out.

    • Use it in hybrid mode around towns & cities. On the motorway at a steady speed use battery control to top it back up if required. Charge at home on a 13a plug socket takes around 5 hours & less on a Zappy charger. (Octopus energy is half price after midnight to 4am) Short journeys on full EV work out to equivalent of 90 mpg as the ICE will not be used. A Phev is a bit more to think about but soon becomes second nature.

    • Floods will affect any type of car except for a 4x4... but if you're asking if it will affect the electronics, then yes.
