Bollywood actress Nora Fatehi buys a brand new BMW 5-series luxury sedan

Popular Bollywood actress Nora Fatehi has just bought a brand new BMW 5-series sedan. The manufacturer posted pictures of Nora taking delivery of the new luxury sedan on their Instagram handle. There is no information about which variant Nora has decided to opt for. However, what the do know is that she chose the Black Sapphire Metallic colour which gives the 5-series a very understated look. Before the BMW, Nora has been spotted with a Mercedes-Benz CLA 220d which was finished in white colour. However, that car has been now discontinued by Mercedes-Benz.

The current-gen 5-series was launched in India in 2017 by BMW and since then its sales are going strong as compared to other German manufacturers such as Audi and Mercedes-Benz. The 5-series is the best sedan that you buy if you consider yourself a keen driver. It has always been the more driver-focused sedan when compared to the competitors. However, it does not mean that the 5-series misses out on equipment, it still offers quite an extensive feature list. This generation of 5-series is known as G30. However, there is a more striking and sleeker 5-series that has been launched in international markets and it should make its way to the Indian market soon. The new mid-life facelift of the BMW 5-series will get sleeker styling, new features and most importantly a range of mild-hybrid technology across the engines.

The BMW 5-series comes with a lot of features as expected. It offers four-zone climate control, ambient lighting, BMW Gesture control, LED headlamps with LED Daytime Running Lamps, wireless charger, LED tail lamps, heads-up display, digital instrument cluster, park assist with a surround-view camera and much more. It also gets a touchscreen infotainment system paired to a 16-speaker Harman Kardon sound system.
