The 530e is heavier because of the battery pack. Since it's slightly back of the rear axle and not an under floor pack like the i3, it doesn't do much for lowering the cg and the weight distribution moves slightly to the back. The extra weight helps with suspension compliance over rough roads. In normal driving, I couldn't detect any significant difference ( I have owned Prosche 911S and Nissan GTR). It's to be my wife's car. As I mentioned earlier, if 8/10 driving is your desire in a 5 series, you should be looking at a 540i M-sport, or higher.
