	(continued from above)
Through its sporting and elegant looks, driving dynamics typical of the 
brand, outstanding efficiency as well as innovative comfort and safety features, 
the BMW 530d Sedan convincingly reflects the 
supreme standard of the world's most successful manufacturer of premium cars 
throughout the entire process of development.
With 
the longest wheelbase in the segment, a long and sleek engine compartment lid, 
short overhangs front and rear and a coupé-like, graceful roofline, the new BMW 
530d stands out clearly from the competition. Overall, the aesthetic 
looks of the sixth generation of BMW's executive express are clearly determined by perfectly balanced proportions. 
Design features typical of the brand are to be found both at the front with its 
BMW kidney grille inclined slightly forward and on the strikingly chiseled 
engine compartment lid, in the stylish and elegant side view of the car, and 
on the muscular rear end. Within the interior modern function and a superior 
ambience come together in perfect harmony, unmistakable style and clear 
orientation to the driver in the cockpit guaranteeing a truly unique driving and 
travelling experience.
Driving Experience: BMW 530d Sedan Offers Supreme 
Dynamics and Comfort
The most advanced drivetrain and suspension 
technologies ensure supreme sportiness and an even higher standard of motoring 
comfort all in one. At the same time optional Dynamic Driving Control enables 
the driver to set the suspension individually to his personal requirements. The 
new BMW 530d is available with Adaptive Drive encompassing Dynamic Damper 
Control and Dynamic Drive stability control, as well as BMW's Integral Active 
Steering. Straight-six 
diesel with the most advanced technology gives the BMW 530d maximum output of 
245 hp. Fitted with 
optional BMW BluePerformance technology, the BMW 530d fulfils the EU6 emission 
standard.
The BMW 530d is available as an option with BMW's new 
eight-speed automatic transmission.
