The evolution of the BMW M5 continues with the revealing of the next-generation model, which has been spied testing with reduced camouflage. Scheduled to compete with the Mercedes-AMG E 63, this powerhouse sedan retains its V8 prowess while embracing hybrid technology.
Official details confirm the presence of a 4.4L twin-turbocharged V8 engine, augmented by an electric motor integrated into the 8-speed automatic transmission. This hybrid setup mirrors that of the XM Label crossover, promising exceptional performance and efficiency.
Anticipated performance figures suggest a sprint time of around three seconds to 60 mph, with a potential M5 CS variant pushing into the sub-3-second territory. Embracing its plug-in hybrid nature, the 2025 M5 features a charging port on the left front quarter panel.
Beyond its powertrain, the M5 distinguishes itself with bespoke styling elements, high-performance components, and advanced technological features. While maintaining its reputation for dynamic driving dynamics, BMW aims to cater to discerning enthusiasts and executives alike.
The next-generation M5 Touring adds versatility to the lineup, catering to those seeking both performance and practicality. With production expected to commence soon and deliveries slated for later this year, BMW enthusiasts have much to anticipate.
