Caralogy Verdict

Suitable for

Optimised urban and peri-urban trips with no charging to manage.

Less suitable for

Home charging access not leveraged. If you have a dedicated outlet, a PHEV would allow daily commutes in pure electric mode.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Combined consumption, the BMW 520d Touring (1st with 5.9 L/100) takes the lead. If the priority is Tank range, the BMW 520d Touring (1st with 1017 km) takes the lead.

Fuel consumption: 6.8 L/100 L/100 (Combined consumption)

The 520i Touring consumes 6.8 L/100 on the WLTP combined cycle. The segment reference is the BMW 520d Touring (5.9 L/100).

Tank range: 882 km (Tank range)

On a full tank, the 520i Touring covers 882 km on the combined cycle. The segment reference reaches 1017 km.

BMW 520i Touring: 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 520i Touring rank in its segment?

Among the 4 grand tourers hybrid 2023–2027, the 520i Touring ranks Combined consumption (6.8 L/100, behind the BMW 520d Touring), Tank range (882 km, behind the BMW 520d Touring), 0–100 km/h (7.8 s, behind the BMW 540d xDrive Touring).

What is the range of the 520i Touring?

882 km on a full tank (6.8 L/100 on the combined cycle) - Tank range.

How much does the 520i Touring 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 Touring instead?

The BMW 520d Touring leads in Combined consumption (5.9 L/100 vs 6.8 L/100). The choice depends on your priorities: check the 520i Touring vs BMW 520d Touring 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.
