Breaking Leaked : 2010 BMW 5-series F10 front facial

Sources claim this BMW will move away from the polarizing design of the current model. Already under development with the internal codename ‘F10,’ the next-generation BMW 5-series will soften the harder lines of the current E60 with more conventional-looking headlights and a cleaner front-end design. New European pedestrian safety standards are expected to drastically alter the design of many European cars for the worse, but BMW will not only maintain its classic twin-kidney grille design, it will also reduce the length of the front overhang.

Back in December, we got a dismembered preview of the 2010 BMW 5 series’ new fascia, complete with a restyled air dam and more sculpted headlamps inspired by the new Z4 and 7 series. The supposedly leaked image above fills in the rest of the details of the upright nosejob, along with a set of LED indicators nestled into the air dam and a revised hood that includes an ovoid character line leading from the roundel to the windshield.
