2010 BMW 5-Series GT revealed as concept
BMW seems to be hell-bent on creating cars that no one asked for. After the X6 and the X1, the latest example is the 2010 BMW 5-Series Gran Touring, to be shown at the 2009 Geneva Auto Show in near-production concept form. As with many previous BMW concepts, the confused car-crossover is a done deal for production.
There isn’t much to say about this abomination, other than it seems to share nothing with the 5-Series except for its platform and mechanicals, all under the skin. It seems to be taller than a normal sedan, but seats only four. The cargo hatch can either open halfway like that of a sedan, or fully like a liftback. The rear seats can fold down to increase cargo volume, although it obviously has less space than a 5-Series wagon.
It is safe to say that BMW has a flop on its hands.

after chris bangle left BMW , what has happened to the design team? rite now it’s the worst time to launch a new car , & BMW has launched some vehicle with confused styling? horrible vehicle except for the interior which has got royal touches. i hope BMW doesnt create more & machines which would turn out to be “ultimate driving disasters”

maybe this will be positioned against A7, MB CLS, Passat CC

umm doesn’t it look like someone forgot to build the backside? …or chopped it off as an afterthought, nice looking but kinda ends too “abruptly” for my taste

This was designed under the supervision of bangle…

BMW is getting worse & worse in overdoing their cars.. but who cares really when ur buying such a car with its hefty price tag…

It will take a little time for some people to understand the concept of the design and to adjust and accept the looks of these European cars. Time will come and the more you look at them the more you will understand and like them. Thats actually the difference between the Japanese and the European car designs. Describing it as ‘bad looking’ is actually immature and irresponsible. And it will be too shallow to make those comments with just looking at the images. You can never think like an European unless you are a European.
