I finally understood this when I accompanied my friend to the 4S dealership last time. The BMW 520i is the standard wheelbase version, while the 520Li is the long-wheelbase version specifically designed for the Chinese market, with the most noticeable difference being the significantly larger rear legroom. The Li version is about 13 cm longer than the i version, allowing passengers to easily cross their legs in the back seat. The driving feel is also different—the 520i handles corners more nimbly, while the 520Li feels more stable due to its longer wheelbase. In the domestic market, the 520Li is the main seller, as everyone prefers spacious interiors, whereas the 520i is more commonly seen on European streets. As for the engine and configurations, they are basically the same—both equipped with a 2.0T engine and an 8AT transmission—so the choice mainly depends on how much rear space you need.

How far can you drive with a punctured tire?

It's generally safe to continue driving for dozens of kilometers with a punctured standard tire. Here's more relevant information: 1. Air leakage after puncture: Rapid air leakage. When you remove the nail and notice rapid air leakage, do not continue driving. Seek assistance on the spot, as driving with rapid air leakage not only makes the tire irreparable but also poses significant danger to the driver. Slow air leakage. If the air leakage is slow and you can find a repair shop nearby, you may drive at low speed to the shop for repairs. Avoid driving too fast or too far to prevent a blowout. 2.
