Marking a new chapter in the M5 legacy, BMW introduces the seventh-generation high-performance sedan. This eagerly awaited powerhouse boasts a first-ever plug-in hybrid setup, pairing a proven twin-turbo V8 engine with an electric motor for exhilarating performance.
Set for a premiere at the prestigious Goodwood Festival of Speed this summer, the G90 M5 is slated for production in July 2024 for the 2025 model year.
Notably, this generation will be joined by the G99 M5 Touring in November, reviving the M5 wagon lineage after a long hiatus.
It’s important to distinguish the G90 M5 from its endurance racing counterpart, despite its racing-inspired design. The production car utilizes a mass-produced 4.4L V8 engine as opposed to the specialized 4.0L unit in the track car.

Additionally, the G90 M5 integrates a cohesive hybrid system, unlike the endurance racer’s setup which relies on various suppliers for its hybrid components.
Packing a powerful punch under a sleek exterior, the new BMW G90 M5 boasts a slew of design upgrades that set it apart from its G60 sibling.
The M5’s muscular stance is achieved through prominent C-pillars adorned with M5 logos and complemented by wider wheel arches housing 20 or 21-inch wheels.
Carbon-ceramic brakes are available for those seeking enhanced stopping power, while a strategically placed charging port ensures convenient refueling.
Every G90 features a lightweight carbon fiber roof, a signature illuminated black kidney grille, and aggressive air intakes for optimal airflow.
The rear showcases a two-part diffuser and a functional spoiler, contributing to both aerodynamic efficiency and sporty aesthetics.
