The wait for the facelifted BMW 5 Series and 6 Series Gran Turismo ended a few hours earlier than expected on Tuesday night, but the German automaker is still keeping its digital presentation to talk about the refreshed models.
The event will be streamed online from Korea to the rest of the world on May 27 from 8 a.m. CEST (2 a.m. EST). “The new BMW 5 Series and BMW 6 Series are just around the corner! Watch our livestream to be among the first to see this Business Athlete,” the automaker writes in an attempt to build anticipation – even if it has already dropped the ball on both two models.
In any case, you already know what to expect, with the executive sedan and its Touring stablemate sporting a slightly larger kidney grille, sharper LED headlights and taillights, as well as revised bumpers that make it look more fresh and more in line with the design of the latest 3 Series.
