The iconic BMW M5 is back for 2025, and this time it's packing a serious punch under the hood in the form of a new plug-in hybrid powertrain. This innovative setup combines a twin-turbocharged 4.4-liter V8 engine with a powerful electric motor, delivering a staggering 717 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque. That's a significant jump from the previous generation M5's output, making the 2025 model the most powerful M5 ever built.
Electric Performance with Everyday Efficiency
The 2025 M5's electric motor allows for electric-only driving for up to 25 miles, perfect for emissions-free commuting or errands around town. When you need more power, the gasoline engine seamlessly kicks in, providing exhilarating acceleration and performance. The M5 can sprint from 0 to 60 mph in a mere 3.4 seconds, and its top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph or 190 mph with the optional M Driver's Package.
But the 2025 M5 isn't just about raw power; it also offers improved fuel efficiency. BMW estimates that the 2025 M5 will achieve a combined fuel economy of up to 25 mpg, a significant improvement over the previous generation's gasoline-only powertrain. This impressive efficiency makes the new M5 a more practical choice for everyday driving without sacrificing its legendary performance.
Striking Design and Luxurious Interior
The 2025 M5 retains the sleek and aggressive design that has become synonymous with the M brand. The car features a bold front fascia with large air intakes, a muscular stance, and a sculpted rear end. Inside, the M5 boasts a luxurious and driver-focused cabin with premium materials, comfortable seating, and the latest technology. The M-specific steering wheel, sport seats, and customizable digital instrument cluster all contribute to an exhilarating driving experience.
Advanced Technology for the Discerning Driver
The 2025 M5 is packed with cutting-edge technology to enhance your driving experience. The car features a new M Drive system that allows you to customize various vehicle settings, such as the engine, transmission, suspension, and steering. The M5 also comes with the latest driver-assistance features, including adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and blind-spot monitoring.
