5 Series (G60) [Spy Shots] BMW G60 5 Series LCI

[Mr. Mercedes]

And sells much better than E class, which looks like C class in terms of size and road presence.

My god. Seriously?

You BMW guys are relentless. Yes so is @leylandi, but colectively you guys are like a pack of wild dogs, once again turning a civil discussion about the FL 5 into a pointless argument.

In reality, we know this is because BMW was wise to create EV and ICE versions of the same car. I personally don't think the E-class' looks are what's holding it back from better sales...and I have a feeling you don't actually believe that either.

He simply expressed his opinion about the E-Class, just as you did with the 5 Series.

Meh, you can tell when people are being genuine vs. just being a troll. This isn't going to be solved on this forum...this behavior dates back well over a decade. This most recent crop of enthusiastic brand followers are just more extreme than the folks that have breezed through in the past.

I beg to differ. We've already established with figures that sales of the 5 series are significantly higher, even without considering the i5.

As for the reasons, there could be many. Regarding design, I believe the 5 series is more in line with what buyers want TODAY: more innovative, eye-catching, and modern. The E series is repetitive, the same as the rest of the line, more predictable and boring, which is not to say, and is far from it, that it's ugly.

Did we? I haven't seen the sales split for the U.S. That's new to me.

i guess the 5er sells more because BMWs are currently the “Cool Cars” of the street. But regardless of that , The E-class is much elegant more looking.

I don't think that's the term analysts use, but who knows; in any case, it's cause for celebration.

Just because 5er sells more doesn’t mean E-Class is the worse one of the bunch. Both of them are excellent in their own ways.

Exactly. It’s tiresome seeing the same freaks calling the people from the other camp trolls.
Their fanatism looks stupid no matter their cause.

But it is. Worthless to the point nobody in the EU would even notice if it wasn't sold anymore. A complete non factor.
