The 530i was a variant of the BMW E60 5 Series that was introduced for the 2004 model year. The 530i was offered in sedan and touring (station wagon) body styles, and over the course of production was powered by two BMW engines. Initially, the E60 530i was fitted with BMW's M54B30 inline six (228hp) but for 2006, this engine was replaced by the more powerful N52B30 inline six unit (255hp). Production of the E60 530i ended at the end of 2010, although the model series continued as part of the BMW F10 5 Series.
