BMW 530i: what you need to know
Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.
Where does the 530i rank in its segment?
Among the 93 grand tourers 2016–2020, the 530i ranks 52th of 93 in Combined consumption (6.1 L/100, behind the BMW 520d), 51th of 91 in Tank range (1115 km, behind the BMW 520d), 50th of 93 in 0–100 km/h (6.1 s, behind the BMW M5 Competition).
What is the range of the 530i?
1115 km on a full tank (6.1 L/100 on the combined cycle) - 51th of 91 in autonomie du segment.
How much does the 530i cost to run?
Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.
Why not a BMW 520d instead?
The BMW 520d leads in Combined consumption (4.3 L/100 vs 6.1 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 530i vs BMW 520d duel for a detailed comparison.
How does Caralogy calculate its figures?
Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
