Many car enthusiasts are astounded by the newest generation of the BMW 5 series as teased by a video by this car company's Twitter account. This video teases the new Remote 3D View technology which this car will most likely have.

Car Advice Australia reports that the new system has very few details, or the car itself for that matter, as of now. Regardless, this new Remote 3D View enables the user to utilize the car's surround-view camera system, which in tun gives them an overhead view of their car with the use of a BMW connected app to be installed on their smartphone.

Furthermore, the next generation of the BMW 5 series had its various prototypes leaked throughout Europe, with its sedan and wagon versions as well as the GT hatchback and even the powered up versions of the M5 all spotted doing rounds. With the way things are going right now, it will certainly surpass the current generation of the 5 series, which was introduced back in 2010. After all, this series is considered to be one of the oldest cars in its class as well as the oldest model BMW is currently producing.

The new 5 series is expected to compete against the Mercedes Benz E-Class as well as the Jaguar XF. These new BMW cars will feature a lot of new technologies that ensures information, entertainment, and safety. Coupled with BMW's new Carbon Core modular architecture, the new 5 series will aim to take back its "Driver's Car" title from Jaguar and hopefully surpass the technological features of the Mercedes Benz.

Additionally, the 2017 BMW 5 series will also be approximately 100 kilograms lighter due to its new underpinnings, which will certainly aid its handling and fuel efficiency.

New details is expected sometime this year, most likely in October at the Paris motor show, with a possible release date sometime mid or late 2017.
