The wagon version of the E39, marketed as Touring, was introduced in 1996 with production of the wagon starting in November 1996. The first full year of E39 sales also saw the Indonesian model range of the 523i assembled in Jakarta from complete knock down kits. In this year the E39 won many awards as a leading executive car, and it was built mainly at the Dingolfing factory. The changes made for 1996 represent the 1997 model year, according to the car's model year scheme.
