With 45 more horsepower, twin turbochargers, and aggressive new styling elements, the 2008 BMW 535 is a major improvement over the 530 model it replaces.

A true overachiever, it's available in sedan form as the rear-wheel drive 535i or all-wheel drive 535xi, or the flexible 535xi Sports Wagon. All models share the new 3.0 liter twin-turbo 6 cylinder engine producing 300 horsepower for sublime, effortless acceleration. Purists will choose the standard 6-speed manual transmission for crisp shifting, but the 6-speed STEPTRONIC automatic transmission can be ordered with steering-wheel mounted paddle shifters for fingertip shifting. The new, functional lower air intake imparts an aggressive style to the front grille. xDrive all-wheel drive delivers tenacious grip and optimum traction in all road conditions.

The Night Vision system uses an infrared camera to see up to 328 yards ahead of the vehicle and display images in the navigation monitor. The optional on-board navigation system uses global positioning to guide you to your destination and features Real-time traffic information to help you avoid delays. The amazing Logic7 audio system features an optional 6-disc CD changer, digital sound processing, and 13 speakers to create acoustic realism. The iDrive system features an on-board computer and controller, with 6 programmable memory buttons to fine-tune settings for climate control, audio system, navigation system and communication with BMW Assist.

Safety highlights include adaptive brake lights that become larger and brighter to correspond with brake force, reducing the risk of a collision. Active Cruise Control uses a pre-set distance and radar measurements to keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you. Dual front airbags, front seat-mounted side airbags, and the Head Protection System protect front and rear seat passengers in a collision. Standard Dynamic Stability Control and Traction control provide additional directional stability and minimal wheelspin during takeoffs.

Be it sedan or sports wagon, the 2008 BMW 535 is a very brisk performer, with acceleration to match its level of refinement and luxury.
