BMW – 2025 BMW M5 Touring: See it on our 2024 Concept Lawn
August 18, 2024
Making its World Premiere at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, the 2025 BMW M5 Touring adds a new dimension to the traditional BMW M5 formula of everyday comfort and usability imbued with extreme high performance born from BMW Motorsports.
While the BMW M5 sedan has been a global icon for nearly 40 years over six generations, there have been only two Touring variants produced in that time, and neither was ever offered to enthusiasts on this side of the Atlantic. The introduction of the seventh generation BMW M5 changes that, as the sedan will be joined by the very first M5 Touring ever offered in the US.
Behind the BMW twin kidney grille at the front is a race-derived M Hybrid drivetrain, comprised of a 4.4-liter M TwinPower Turbo V8 boosted by an electric motor mounted between it and the 8-speed M Steptronic transmission. The result is 717 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque. At the back, in addition to the traditional M quad tailpipes, a single-piece tailgate lifts to reveal a cavernous luggage area, and folding rear seats expand the space even further. A thoroughly modern, tech-forward interior is bathed in unique ambient lighting in the M tricolor and features M multifunctional seats with exclusive Merino leather designs, the BMW Curved Display powered by iDrive 8.5 with M-specific controls and displays, and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems. The whole package is wrapped in a distinctive widebody design mated to an M-specific chassis featuring an Adaptive M Suspension, Integral Active Steering, M xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive, and staggered wheel and tire packages. Production begins in late 2024, with US deliveries expected at the beginning of 2025.
