Rebel child is on the stage! New BMW M5 features and price!
BMW, one of the German automobile giants, has finally introduced its new naughty and rebellious child. The model, which has been eagerly awaited by the automobile community, has finally taken its cover off and taken its place on stage in all its glory. The new BMW M5 seems to excite automobile enthusiasts.
First of all, let’s start by giving the case code of the new model. The new BMW M5 Sedan will also come with a station wagon version called Touring, with the chassis code G90. The car has a serious weight of 2.4 tons in total. However, this chassis is carried by a plug-in hybrid unit with a 4.4-liter V8 cylinder arrangement that produces 727 Hp. Although this unit sounds new, it is actually not a stranger to car enthusiasts.
BMW enthusiasts will know well that the same unit with the 4.4-liter electrically assisted V8 units introduced with the XM series in the past months takes its place in the new M5. While the internal combustion engine of the vehicle produces 585 Hp, it is supported by an electric motor that can produce 197 Hp. The vehicle offers a total of 727 Hp power and 1000 Nm torque to its users.

When it comes to design, we can see that the BMW design language we are accustomed to welcomes us. The vehicle shows us that it is a hybrid with its developing technology and its design. The vehicle is 5.09 meters long and 1.97 meters wide. Compared to other M5 models, we can say that it is one of the largest M5 models ever.
Going back to the weight of the vehicle, let’s start by stating that this situation, which seems like a disadvantage, is actually an advantage. In the statements made by BMW engineers, it was stated that the electric motor was responsible for the extra 500 kilograms of weight compared to the previous M5 model, but that the vehicle was much faster with this engine.
The new BMW M5 accelerates from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in just 3.5 seconds. 10.9 seconds is enough to accelerate from 0 to 200 kilometers per hour. Although the maximum speed of the vehicle is limited to 250 kilometers/hour, it is actually possible to speed up to 305 kilometers/hour when all the engine power is used.
The vehicle owes all this power to its 8-speed automatic transmission. The car has a 4-wheel drive system with a focus on rear-wheel drive. For drift lovers, there is also a 2-wheel drive mode that you can use when you turn off the vehicle’s ESP system.
Production of the BMW M5 will start at the Dingolfing factory in July. As for the prices, the new M5 sedan will have a label of 144 thousand euros, while the Touring model will have a label of only 146 thousand euros. So what do you think about the new BMW M5 features and prices?
