Gurugram, September 7, 2026: BMW India has launched the first-ever BMW i5 Long Wheelbase (LWB) in the country.
The first-ever i5 Long Wheelbase will be locally produced at BMW Group Plant Chennai and the deliveries will begin immediately.
Hardeep Singh Brar, President and CEO, BMW Group India said, “The first-ever BMW i5 Long Wheelbase is more than a new model launch; it is a defining statement of our India strategy. As our first locally produced electric sedan, it brings together the two strongest pillars of our future growth: electrification and long wheelbase luxury. Purpose-built for the expectations of Indian customers, it showcases our growing local manufacturing capabilities while reinforcing BMW's leadership in sustainable mobility. With its commanding presence, cutting-edge electric technology and class-leading rear-seat comfort, the BMW i5 Long Wheelbase is equally rewarding to drive and to be driven in. It seamlessly combines signature BMW driving dynamics with first-class chauffeur-driven luxury, creating an experience unlike any other in its segment. The first-ever BMW i5 Long Wheelbase sets a new benchmark for the modern executive sedan and redefines what customers can expect from electric luxury mobility. We are not entering a segment; we are creating one.”
