What is the sticker price of each new 5 Series trim at BMW of Arlington?
The 2026 530i Sedan starts at $60,500, the lowest-priced 5 Series. The 530i xDrive Sedan starts at $62,800, the 540i xDrive Sedan at $67,700, and the 550e xDrive Sedan at $75,500. Those are the manufacturer’s starting MSRPs for each trim, so the sticker price rises with each step up.
A buyer comparing trims should set the four starting prices side by side. The gap from the 530i to the 550e xDrive is $15,000 before any options, taxes or fees. That gap is the number to plan around.
What does a new BMW 5 Series add as you move up from the 530i?
The 540i xDrive Sedan steps up to 375 hp and 398 lb-ft of torque, still seating five. The 550e xDrive Sedan is the plug-in hybrid, rated at 483 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque. Its EPA rating is 22 city, 28 highway and 25 combined mpg, with an EPA-certified electric range of 34 miles.
For fuel cost, the 530i Sedan is rated at 31 mpg combined and the 540i xDrive Sedan at 28. The 550e xDrive Sedan carries a 2026 fuel cost estimate of $3,100 a year, against $2,500 for the 530i Sedan.
What do Texas tax, title and registration add to a new BMW 5 Series?
Texas charges motor vehicle sales tax on the purchase price of a new car, and title and registration fees are added to it. These come on top of the sticker price.
Texas sets motor vehicle sales tax at 6.25 percent of the sales price, minus any trade-in allowance (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, 2026). The title fee is $33 for a Tarrant, Dallas or other listed county, which covers the Arlington area (Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, Motor Vehicle Title Manual, 2026).
A trade-in lowers the taxable amount, so the sales tax line drops with it.
Can you reserve or factory-order a new BMW 5 Series at BMW of Arlington?
BMW of Arlington lets shoppers reserve an incoming vehicle from the inventory listing or place a custom factory order. The dealership sells new BMW models, including the 5 Series.
Reserving an incoming vehicle is the path for a buyer who wants a 5 Series trim that is not on the lot. A buyer who wants a specific color or option set can place a custom factory order instead. Either way, the buyer starts from the inventory listing.
How do you estimate a new BMW 5 Series payment at BMW of Arlington?
The dealership’s finance options are BMW leases, new BMW financing and pre-owned car loans. Those are the three ways to pay for a new 5 Series through the dealership.
Start with the monthly figure you want and the trim you are considering. A lease and a loan use the same sticker price as the starting point, so comparing them on one trim shows which fits your budget. The financing options let you compare a lease and a loan on the same car in one visit.
How does a trade-in bring down the cost of a new BMW 5 Series in Arlington?
Texas sales tax is figured on the sales price less any amount given for a trade-in vehicle. A trade-in therefore reduces the taxable amount. The Texas Comptroller’s guide gives an example of a $42,000 vehicle with a $15,000 trade-in, where the tax applies to the difference (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, Motor Vehicle Tax Guide, 2026).
BMW of Arlington has an online trade-in tool. Trade-in customers can visit with or without an appointment. A buyer can get a value first, then bring the car in to complete the purchase.
