BMW 5 Series: Edition Sport provides new accents in terms of dynamics.
Consistent optimisation has led to a further increase in the efficiency of BMW 5 Series models featuring a four-cylinder diesel engine of the latest generation and xDrive. The combination of a 140 kW/190 hp power unit, the standard 8-speed Steptronic transmission and the intelligent four-wheel drive system available for the BMW 520d xDrive Sedan and the BMW 520d xDrive Touring ensures ultimate driving pleasure and fuel consumption levels of between 4.9 and 4.5 litres (Sedan) and 5.2 to 4.8 litres (Touring) per 100 km respectively. Corresponding CO2 emission levels are between 129 and 119 g/km for the Sedan and 137 to 127 g/km for the Touring model.

From March 2015, the Edition Sport will be available as an attractive supplement for the BMW 5 Series Sedan and the BMW 5 Series Touring. It comprises selected exterior and interior options, which effectively underscore the dynamic character of the upper midrange bestseller. The Edition Sport is available for all model variants, excluding the BMW M Performance automobiles BMW M550d xDrive Sedan and BMW M550d xDrive Touring, and includes a leather-covered sports steering wheel, LED fog lamps, the BMW Individual High Gloss Shadow Line as well as redesigned 18-inch, double spoke light alloy wheels.

The range of optional exterior colours available for the BMW 5 Series Sedan and the BMW 5 Series Touring will now include the variants Mediterranean Blue metallic and Mineral Grey metallic. These can also be chosen in combination with the M Sport Package. In future, the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo will also be available in Kashmir Silver metallic

New BMW Individual options for the BMW M3 Sedan, the BMW M4 Coupe and the BMW M4 Convertible.
The extended range of BMW Individual equipment options available ex factory offers additional possibilities of combining the outstanding performance of the BMW M3 Sedan, BMW M4 Coupe and BMW M4 Convertible with a particularly exclusive charisma. From March 2015, there will be a choice of new BMW Individual body colours that emphasise these models’ athletically modelled body surfaces in a particularly intensive way with a matt de luxe shimmer. The range of matt colours, which are applied in an elaborate process, comprises the variants Frozen Black metallic, Frozen Silver metallic, Frozen Red metallic and Frozen Brilliant White metallic.

Moreover, the range of model-specific equipment for the BMW M4 Coupe is being complemented by exceptionally high-quality options for the interior. For example, in future, the Coupe will also be available with enhanced BMW Individual leather upholstery Merino fine grain in the colours Opal White, Amaro Brown, Golden Brown, Cohiba Brown and Nutmeg as well as with BMW Individual all-leather black upholstery with contrasting seam in Sakhir Orange, Yellow, Blue or Silverstone. Furthermore, this model can now also be ordered with a colour-matched leather-covered BMW Individual instrument panel.

They don't mention the 340i and 440i.... also the 330i and 430i...

I believe that the 340i would become available with the LCI. This list only deals with expanding the current lineup. The 440i would likewise become available once the LCI F30 is released.
