2010 BMW 5 SERIES GRAN TURISMO

Showing its love for new acronyms, BMW has created another vehicle with a unique acronym, calling the 5-Series Gran Turismo a "Progressive Activity Sedan." The 5-Series GT will be the first of several variants for the model, which will also see traditional sedan and wagon options.
Combining the attributes of a wagon and crossover, the 5-Series GT offers loads of space for people and cargo. In its standard configuration, the GT offers the same rear-seat legroom as the 7-Series sedan and the same rear-seat headroom as the X5, while still maintaining 15.4 cubic feet of cargo space. If more cargo room is needed the rear seats can be moved forward four inches -- leaving the same rear-seat legroom as the 5-Series sedan -- creating 20.7 cubic feet of cargo room. For all-out hauling duties, the rear seats can be folded flat, revealing a cavernous 59.5 cubic feet of space.
