We previously shared with you spy photos of the upcoming 5 Series touring models in mule form, which were based on the current F11 touring body. Today, the first full production body prototypes on the new body have been spotted out testing. Details such as the window lines and lights are all new.

This particular prototype is a plug-in hybrid model and reflects BMW's plans to offer a hybrid version of each of its core models. Like the next generation G30 5 Series Sedan, the touring model will also be built upon the CLAR platform which combines high-strength steel, aluminum and carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) construction.

The G31 5 Series Touring will launch next year. It's not yet known whether it will or will not be available in North America.
