      The seats are super comfortable. Due to extra padding in seats, it provides extra cushioning and supports my back well without any discomfort.

      Blind spot detection and adaptive emergency brakes which alerts me to avoid collision with other vehicles around me and it is my personal favourite safety features. It is the best feature in BMW 5-Series LWB.
