Everything You Need To Know –

A new M5 in on the way to the USA and should be more powerful than ever. The BMW M5 has always had a clear mission: to be an absolute missile that can accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH in just a few seconds. The current sixth-generation M5 bucked tradition, eliminating the manual transmission and abandoning its classic rear-wheel drive layout for all-wheel-drive. But BMW may be planning even bolder changes for the next model, which should be just around the corner.

Here’s what we know about the 2025 BMW M5.

BMW confirmed in June 2023 that it is developing an M5 Touring wagon variant for the new 2025 model. It will be just the third time BMW has introduced a wagon variant in the M5’s nearly 40-year history and the first since the V10 E61 M5 left production in 2010. And it appears to be coming to the United States. A camouflaged version of the M5 Touring was spied testing in California in December 2023. And BMW’s head of design Domagoj Dukec confirmed to The Car Guide that BMW will sell both sedan and wagon versions of the next-generation M5 in North America.

What Engine Will The 2025 BMW M5 Have?

In December, BMW M CEO Frank van Meel confirmed to CarExpert the “open secret” that the next BMW M5 will receive the twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 plug-in hybrid system used in the new XM crossover.The engine will likely have different tuning than it does in the XM, where it makes 644 hp in the base model and 738 in the XM Label Red The most likely figure as of now comes from BMW Blog, who says 718 horsepower. That poster claims the 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 will produce a maximum of 577 horses, while the electric motor spits out up to 194 hp.

What Will The New M5 Look Like…?

The brand does not typically overdo it with the M5 exterior, so the new 5 Series should offer a pretty good preview. Factor in that the M5 will probably get a lip spoiler and a more aggressive front and rear fascia, and consider that the M division has already helped style a new 5er in the form of the i5 M50, and you should be able to start to form a picture of what the car should look like.

When Will The New BMW M5 Arrive?

BMW has confirmed the seventh-generation M5 will be released in 2024. According to BMW Blog the new M5 sedan will enter production in July 2024 followed by the M5 Touring wagon in November 2024. That timeline should make it a 2025 model year vehicle in America.
