Next-Gen BMW 5 Series Touring Design Revealed In Trademark Filing

A design trademark filing from the United Kingdom has unveiled the design of the upcoming BMW 5 Series Touring wagon without any camouflage. The filing was submitted under the classifications of “MOTOR CARS, BUSES AND LORRIES” and “GAMES AND TOYS,” suggesting that a scale model of the wagon might also be released.

The design trademark doesn’t provide any further information aside from the wagon’s images. However, spy shots indicate that there will be combustion, electric, and high-performance M5 variants available. The design revealed in the trademark filing appears to be a more basic model, lacking aggressive or sporty bodywork.

UK Considering Postponing Ban on New Gasoline and Diesel Cars to 2035

The United Kingdom is considering a delay in implementing the ban on the sale of new gasoline and diesel cars, with a possible shift to the year 2035. This would extend the original target of 2030 for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, as reported by the BBC.

The 2030 target was introduced in November 2020 as part of then-Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s plan for a “green revolution.” However, despite reassurances from senior minister Michael Gove as recently as July, the British government is now contemplating a departure from this ambitious timeline.
