If you want a midsize-luxury sedan with all the expected premium trappings, loads of technology and an edge for drivers who favor sporty driving dynamics, the 2018 BMW 5 Series remains the one to beat. Powertrains now range from fuel-miserly 4-cylinder models to a voracious V8 with all-wheel drive.
Subjectively, you might find the 5 Series’ styling too conservative. If you eye a Volvo S90 or Lexus GS instead, you’ll also benefit from a lower starting price and, with the Lexus, higher resale value. If you want a diesel luxury sedan, your choices have dwindled to the Jaguar XF.
