BMW announced their ConnectedDrive Connect (CDC) semi-autonomous driving system back in August, but the company has just released a new video of it in action. While the clip is in German, it shows some fairly relaxed engineers taking their hands off the steering wheel and letting the car drive itself. As we have previously reported, CDC works on pre-mapped highways by pinpointing the car’s position and the location of surrounding objects.
This clip is a part of the BMW ConnectedDrive Future Lab. More details at www.bmw.com

There a number of different cars within the BMW 5 series range – such as the saloon, Touring, Convertible and Gran Turismo Hatchback models. This is an overview of the pros and cons of each of the cars in this 5 series.
The BMW 5 series saloon
This model is likely to be the most popular – and the biggest seller – for the average car driver. The 5 series saloon offers marvellous design and comfort levels, with clear, easy-to-use dashboard design and more than enough internal space for four people to sit comfortably. In terms of safety features it has the standard six airbags along with stability control feature and a spring-loaded bonnet – which should make it safer both for passengers and pedestrians. On the downside the problems of rough driving caused by the suspension system can only be solved by investing in expensive upgrades to the system.
The BMW 5 series Touring
There are many similarities with the saloon editions of the BMW 5 series, as this model also provides excellently straightforward dashboard layout and the widescreen monitor system, operated via the rotary controller on the iDrive – although it may seem strange at first, to those used to the touch screen – will probably prove to be easier to use for most people once they have adjusted to it. The Touring models are really for those who require a bit more storage space, as they feature a bigger boot – 1670 litres of space, when the rear seats are folded down – than the saloon models.
The BMW 5 series Gran Turismo Hatchback
The semi-SUV Hatchback has many of the same pros and cons of the other models in the BMW 5 series, with the major flaw being the problems with road surfaces. It is simply impossible to get a smooth ride, even on the best roads, while on bad ones the bumping and jolting can be a serious problem. Nonetheless, this is countered by the excellent handling, ensuring that the driver should never lose control of the vehicle. Furthermore the reliability and comfort levels are second to none.
If you are looking to buy any of the cars in the BMW 5 Series range but they are a bit out of your price range, you can always pick up a used BMW 5 series for a more affordable price and still in good condition either online or at your local used car dealership.
