BMW5 GranTurismo will soon be superseded by the five-door "six" of the same brand. The changed index - from five to six - says that the car has increased in size, and to such an extent that it now surpasses the fifth series BMW station wagon in terms of luggage compartment volume. Liftback turned steeper wagon! Maybe it is time to abandon the production of “sheds” at all for the sake of huge liftbacks? The luggage compartment of the “barn” BMW5, depending on whether the rear seats are folded or not, ranges from 0.570 to 1.7 meters in a cube, and the new “six” Gran Turismo has bins with a volume from 0.610 to 1.8 cubic meters. The very thing in order to travel not only with his wife and children, but also taking the mother-in-law with her uncomplicated luggage. The wagon, of course, looks more elegant, in comparison with the new one a little bit heavy liftback from bavaria. Automotive engineers tried to reduce this visual heaviness, they lowered the roof by 2.1 cm, somewhat changed the shape of the roof - the upper point of the arc moved closer to the center. But still, if you go around the car around, from some positions, it still does not withstand the criticism of fans of proportional forms. 
Насчет практичности тоже есть претензии, они не критичные, но все же. Первое - это стекла без рам, лишающие напрочь элегантности автомобиль, установили бы обычные стекла, вопросов бы не было. Второе - убрали двухсекционную дверь багажника, которая была у liftbackа пятой серии. Теперь, чтобы положить небольшую вещь, надо распахивать всю "калитку", а не одну лишь створку. В мороз это мгновенно выстудит весь салон. Ну и на этом минусы закончились. Далее - одни только положительные моменты. Расстояние между осями - 3 м 7 см, на заднем кресле просторно, хоть в настольный теннис играй. Модульная "тележка" CLAR, на которой собрана "шестерка" Gran Tourism, eased it to a half centner. Aerodynamics improved, and this saves fuel and a minimum of noise at maximum speeds. 
Liftback has a rear suspension, which itself is aligned depending on the workload of the luggage compartment. If you pay, the pneumatic racks can be put on the front suspension. After paying, you can take adaptive Amorth, sports suspension and steering. On the European car market BMW6 Gran Turismo will start selling in near november. And he will come to our car dealers closer to the end of December. First, in three trim levels: with a two-liter, 258-horsepower, three-liter 340-horsepower gasoline engines and a three-liter 265-horsepower diesel engine. A complete set with three-liter engines can be retrofitted with all-wheel drive. All motors work with a single box - an eight-speed hydromechanical automatic. 
Hardly this liftback will sell well in our country. Here more prefer the Bavarian sedans.
