If there's one thing that's remained a constant with Lexus, it's consistency. The air of curated conventionality their line-up possesses is a fresh breath in a time where carmakers are equally concerned about trying to redefine words as they are with the business of car-making.

While we await news of the facelifted W213 Mercedes E-Class to be launched in our local market (it has been launched in neighbouring Thailand), BMW is set to steal a march by launching the LCI 5-er earlier, to cons

LCI–short for Life Cycle Impulse–is BMW’s term for their mid-cycle updates or facelifts. The 2020 BMW 5 Series (G30) LCI made its global debut recently and like many BMW LCI models, changes are subtle, so we’re putting the pre-LCI and LCI model together for a comparison. From the front, the headlights appear to be slightly slimmer compared to before, with twin L-shaped LED daytime running lights. The front grille is also new, now just a touch larger and more three-dimensional. The cutouts on the
