540d on the road

How a remapped 540d drives

+120Nm

Serious pace, quietly

800Nm in a 5 Series means proper performance without the noise, and the engine never sounds like it’s working hard.

+80bhp

Long-distance ease

At a cruise the 540d is barely working. Remapped, the reserve of power is even bigger, so long trips feel shorter.

590lb-ft

Overtake, done

On A-roads the 540d clears slower traffic in one short burst, so you spend less time on the wrong side of the road.
