With 40 years of history having passed under its wheels, the legendary high-performance sedan has reached its seventh generation and therefore BMW M5 is powering into a new era, according to ”press.bmw.com”.

And the executive model from BMW M now has an electrified drive system for the first time. A model-specific version of the M Hybrid system gives the new BMW M5 a maximum system output of 717 hp.  The combination of a high-revving V8 engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology and an electric motor, abetted by an 8-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic and the M xDrive all-wheel-drive system gives drivers a new experience of the performance with which M models have made their name.

Key elements:
– The 7th generation of the benchmark high-performance sedan is the most powerful yet;
– BMW M Hybrid drive system produces 717 hp, 738 lb-ft of torque;
– 0-60 mph in just 3.4 seconds, on to a top speed of 190 mph with the M Driver’s Package;
– Projected fully electric, zero emissions range of approximately 25 miles;
– Base MSRP $119,500 plus $1,175 destination and handling;
– Worldwide launch to commence in the fourth quarter of 2024.

The new BMW M5 will make its world premiere at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in England in July 2024, with production at BMW Group Plant Dingolfing beginning the same month. The worldwide market launch of the new BMW M5 will start in November 2024.

M Hybrid system in the new BMW M5: signature M performance characteristics in a new form.
The M Hybrid drive system of the new BMW M5 is based on a 4.4-liter V8 engine with a classically high-revving nature. It utilizes the thermodynamic benefits of a cross-bank exhaust manifold, while a reinforced crankshaft drive, turbochargers mounted close to the exhaust manifold – and with adapted indirect charge air cooling and an electrically controlled blow-off valve – plus a vane-type oil pump and a weight-minimized plastic oil sump, all play a role in the engine’s efficiency.

The S68B44T0 V8 engine in the new BMW M5 is complemented by an electric motor which, like the power electronics and high-voltage battery of the plug-in-hybrid system, are the product of the current, fifth generation of BMW eDrive technology.

The electric motor contributes up to 194 hp to the maximum system output and up to 207 lb-ft to the maximum system torque.

Working together, the 4.4-liter M TwinPower Turbo V8 and the GEN5 electric motor produce a maximum system output of 717 hp between 5,600-6,500 rpm, and maximum system torque of 738 lb-ft between 1,800-5,400 rpm. The outstanding power and torque are expertly manged by the 8-speed M Steptronic gearbox and the M xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive system to launch the new M5 from 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. In addition, the prodigious torque gives the M Hybrid drive system outstanding elasticity, which is reflected in a time of 2.9 seconds for the sprint from 50 to 75 mph in fifth gear. In fourth gear, this figure drops as low as 2.2 seconds. The top speed of the new BMW M5 is limited to 155 mph as standard, and raised to 190 mph when the optional M Driver’s Package is specified.

The newly developed sport exhaust system of the 2025 BMW M5, with its electronically controlled and continuously adjustable flaps, summons a rich aural accompaniment to the engine’s power delivery.

High-voltage battery, power electronics and Combined Charging Unit with intelligent energy and heat management.
The energy for the electric drive system is stored in a high-voltage battery, which is installed in the underbody of the new BMW M5 to save space. The positioning of the battery here helps to lower the center of gravity, which has a positive effect on handling agility. The lithium-ion battery delivers impressive energy density at a cell and battery-pack level. It has a usable energy content of 14.8 kWh and provides a constant flow of power across a wide temperature range.

The M Hybrid system’s Combined Charging Unit coordinates the flow of electricity both when charging the high-voltage battery and when supplying energy to the electric motor. It also acts as a voltage transformer to supply the 12V electrical system. Its predictive heat management allows the Combined Charging Unit to reduce charging times by strategically warming or cooling the battery.

Eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic, Launch Control function and integrated electric motor.
The 8-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic channels the power generated by the combustion engine as well as drive torque from the integrated electric motor as required to enhance either efficiency, comfort, or performance. The transmission’s shift characteristics can be varied via the Drivelogic settings selectable using the M Setup menu. Three clearly distinguishable stages can be selected in both automated and manual mode – ranging from comfort-focused to extremely dynamic.

Up to five operating modes allow drivers to tailor the performance and efficiency as they wish.
The interaction between the combustion engine and electric motor in the BMW M5 can be adjusted by selecting specific operating modes for the M Hybrid system.

The default setting HYBRID gives the driver access to the full system output of the combustion engine and electric motor in tandem.  In the Comfort setting, the electric motor is deployed more often, optimizing the efficiency of the new BMW M5. If the battery is at a very low state of charge, the generator function raises the engine’s load point to feed additional power into the high-voltage battery, and full system output developed by the motor and engine is still available. In the drive system’s Sport and Sport Plus modes, the combustion engine is always engaged.

Precise distribution of power with M xDrive and Active M Differential.
In all operating modes, the power from the combustion engine, electric motor or both is channelled to the road via M xDrive. With its electronically controlled multi-plate clutch, this intelligent all-wheel-drive system ensures fully variable distribution of power between the front and rear axle, which optimizes both the traction and performance of the new BMW M5.

The M xDrive system’s responses can also be adapted via the M Setup menu. Beyond the default 4WD setting, drivers can choose from two other modes. In 4WD Sport mode, the characteristic rear-biased setup of the M-specific all-wheel-drive system is more pronounced.
