The BMW 5 Series E60/E61 (2003–2010) polarised with Chris Bangle's controversial but influential design and introduced the first iDrive system to the 5 Series. This engine variant of the E60 benefited from the innovative technology of the model range, which introduced active steering and adaptive dampers to this class for the first time. The E60's innovative technology included active steering and adaptive dampers as part of the dynamics package, a first in this class.
