BMW 5-Series facelift spotted

A facelifted version of the BMW 5-seires has been spotted by the media in China. The car has been spotted in testing several times over the last few months and this is the first time pictures have emerged of the car without any camouflage.  Most of the changes to the car are cosmetic and have taken place both in the front and the back. 

The front bumper has been revised and now features bigger fog lamps and more chrome detailing. The grille has also been revised and is now similar to what has been featured on the new 3-series that was launched last year.

The back is pretty much the same as the previous model save for a new design for the exhaust pipes and a slightly revised rear bumper. The interiors too are expected to get some minor updates and this includes a new infotainment system as well as revisions to the switches and knobs. 

The engine line up is expected to remain the same as the previous model and this includes the2.0-litre petrol manual, 2.5-litre petrol, 2.0-litre diesel and both the 3.0-litre diesel and petrol mills. It is likely that BMW will launch the car at the upcoming 2013 Geneva Motor Show.
