At Long Last, the BMW M5 Touring Is Officially Coming to the US

By José Rodríguez Jr

Updated on Apr 4, 2024 5:11 PM EDT

3 minute read

Wagon lovers, rejoice! A new performance wagon is upon us in America, which is an unlikely twist in today’s auto market saturated by crossovers and SUVs. BMW has confirmed that the upcoming M5 Touring will be coming to the United States, where it will compete with the likes of the Audi RS6 Avant and the Mercedes-AMG E63 wagon . This is the first time that an M5 Touring has been sold in America, in the model’s long history going back to the legendary E34 wagon from 1992.

It’s not exactly a surprise that the BMW M5 Touring has been confirmed for the States—rumors to that effect had circulated for months—but the official confirmation is welcome news. Sedans and wagons have taken a backseat to trucks, crossovers, and SUVs on the U.S. market lately, forcing such stalwart wagon makers like Volvo to abandon them in favor of other vehicles. Audi shocked the auto world with its RS6 Avant, but fans implicitly understood such a vehicle was a moonshot that was unlikely to inspire rival automakers to bring out their own fire-breathing wagons.

That’s what BMW is doing with the release of the M5 Touring, which is both a product of the German carmaker’s storied M division and the latest revival of the Touring badge. This new model marks the third generation of the M5 Touring, and the latest wagon will succeed the E34 and E61 models, released in 1992 and 2007, respectively. Neither of those were sold in the U.S., likely due to little demand from buyers here for performance wagons.

The full design of the new M5 wagon is still cloaked in a livery of squiggles and lines that carmakers use to conceal new cars, but we can make much of it out in a new video that BMW shared. It follows a BMW M5 sedan and M5 Touring out on test drives in their native Germany. Watch the wagon rip:

The upcoming M5 takes on the looks of the current 5 Series G60, but has more aggressive styling. BMW says that the new M5 wagon will be powered by a hybrid powertrain, which may be similar to that of the BMW XM SUV. The most powerful version of that M car is the XM Red Label plug-in hybrid, which makes up to 738 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque. It’s unclear how much of that power the new M5 Touring will inherit, but it’ll have the same 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 paired with at least one electric motor. It could also be a PHEV model, but the range is still unknown.

The BMW M5 Touring’s price is also unknown for now. The prior-gen M5 F90 started just shy of $110,000, and that was for the sedan. You can imagine that a new, possibly plug-in hybrid M5 with a long roof will blow past that dollar figure, maybe into the low $120,000 range. Still, it might be worth it for those who’ve waited decades to see a new M5 Touring make it to the American market. Long live the wagon.

ACCESS GRANTED.

The bmw m5 touring comes to north america for the first time..

5 April 2024

The prototypes are carefully disguised, but the camouflage cannot completely conceal their character as elite high-performance vehicles. The seventh generation of the BMW M5 has entered the practical phase of its development process. The new high-performance sedan from BMW M is completing its testing on public roads, BMW proving grounds, and racetracks around the world.

But this time the story does not end with the sedan. American fans of the M brand have even more to look forward to – much more. Enthusiasts across the country have made their voices heard, and their wish has been granted. The BMW M5 Touring will be available for the very first time to customers in the United States and Canada, among other countries.

UNRIVALLED DRIVING DYNAMICS.

Like the future BMW M5 Sedan, the next M5 Touring will feature an M Hybrid drivetrain closely related to the one found in the BMW M Hybrid V8 GTP race car. Its M-typical performance characteristics along with precisely tuned chassis technology facilitate driving dynamics and agility at a level unique in its class. With the introduction of the new M5, BMW M is continuing its path to electrification. "We are now also installing a hybrid drive system with typical M performance in other high-performance cars," says Dirk Häcker, Head of Development at BMW M.

For almost 40 years, the BMW M5 has been the benchmark for driving dynamics, agility, and precision in the high-performance sedan segment. Evolutionary progress, development know-how from motorsport, and pioneering innovations in the areas of drive, suspension, aerodynamics, and lightweight construction have shaped the history of the BMW M5 . Engines with six, eight, and ten cylinders, M TwinPower Turbo technology and high-revving characteristics, and M xDrive four-wheel drive are just some of the technological milestones with which the M5 has consistently redefined top performance in a sedan that is unconditionally suitable for everyday use. The seventh generation of the BMW M5 continues this progress – with further innovations for an even more intense performance experience.

TESTED ON THE WORLD’S MOST LEGENDARY RACE TRACK.

Testing of the first prototypes of the new BMW M5 Touring is already underway, in urban traffic, on mountain roads and motorways around Munich, at the BMW M headquarters in Garching, and in the US. Soon, engineers will head to the Nürburgring's Nordschleife where the integration of the drive and suspension systems will be carried out with the aim of ensuring the ideal balance of sporting performance on the racetrack and superior ride comfort in everyday driving and over long distances.

ONE LAST BIG WINTER.

Start in Munich. Follow the BMW M5 and BMW M5 Touring prototypes on an exciting journey from Munich, Germany to Arjeplog, Sweden. Both drivers and cars are constantly being pushed to their limits in a wide variety of weather conditions. Join them on their final big winter test!

THE BMW M5 TOURING.

The perfect symbiosis of M typical performance, uncompromising long-distance comfort and impressive spaciousness will experience a renaissance in 2024 with the new BMW M5 Touring.

2025 BMW M5 Touring revealed: U.S. is finally getting an M5 wagon!

Although the third one globally, it's the first one officially sold here.

“If you build it, they will come.”

That disembodied voice from the cornfield was talking to Kevin Costner about the 1918 Chicago White Sox, but perhaps somewhere in a field of dreams in Southern Germany, it’s also making the case to wayward car executives. For, despite all apparent logic, Audi decided to finally bring to the United States its RS 6 Avant – a wagon. There was much rejoicing amongst car enthusiasts, and people must actually be buying the thing, because BMW has decided that it must not be so nuts after all and is answering the call. Take that Timothy Busfield (that’s the last “ Field of Dreams ” reference, I promise).

The 2025 BMW M5 Touring will indeed be the first M5 wagon to be sold in the United States fresh from the factory, as opposed to 30 years later on Bring a Trailer. It is not the first M5 Touring, however. The second, E34 generation (1992) and fourth, E61 generation (2007) also got official long-roof versions.

Broadly speaking, this is just another body style of the 2025 BMW M5 that was revealed back in June. That means it has the same plug-in hybrid powertrain that pump out a total of 717 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. That would be 96 and 111 more, respectively, than the RS 6 Avant. The AMG E 63 S Wagon, which we sure hope will be replaced by its own next-generation, is down 114 hp and 111 lb-ft.

The new M5’s 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 alone produces 557 hp and 553 lb-ft, while the electric motor embedded within the eight-speed automatic pumps out 194 hp and 207 lb-ft. Not surprisingly given that output, all-wheel drive is standard. The 0-60 time is stated as 3.5 seconds, which is a tenth slower than the sedan.

The rather enormous 14.8 kilowatt-hour battery , which is located in the underbody, provides 25 miles of electric range, though BMW did not indicate which testing cycle that was for. Either way, it’s far superior than the token amount Mercedes-AMG provides with its various E Performance plug-ins.

Not surprisingly, the rest of the dynamic package is largely carried over from sedan to wagon, including the 50:50 weight distribution. One exception is the model-specific underfloor bracing elements, including a cross-bar and a shear panel, plus further stiffening elements to counter that big-ol luggage compartment.

Which brings us to, literally, the biggest difference between M5 and M5 Touring. BMW says that the cargo area measures 17.7 cubic-feet, but that’s quite obviously a measurement that stops at the rear seatbacks versus the more typical floor-to-ceiling method. As such, you can’t really compare that cargo number to the RS 6 Avant’s 30 cubic-foot figure that is a floor-to-ceiling number (By the way, you can fit this much stuff in the back of the RS 6 Avant ). Total capacity with the back seat lowered is 57.6 cubic-feet, which is comparable to other wagons. For reference, the BMW X5 M has a maximum of 72.3 cubic-feet, though much of that difference is assuredly due to the body’s taller height.

Per BMW tradition, the 40:20:40-split-folding rear seatback has a pass-through in the middle 20 section for transporting larger items. There’s also a power, handsfree liftgate.

A BMW M spokesperson confirmed that there really aren't significant equipment differences between sedan and Touring. One exception concerns the roof: you can't get the sedan's optional carbon fiber roof on the Touring. Instead, it comes standard with and only with the sedan's standard Sky Lounge Panoramic Roof . Apparently, it “functions as a structural module and extends in a single section from just behind the windscreen far to the rear of the vehicle.” It doesn’t open but there’s mercifully a power roller blind.

The 2025 BMW M5 Touring will go on sale later this year and will be built alongside the sedan in Dingolfing, Germany. Pricing will start at $122,675, including destination. That’s actually about $4,000 less than the RS 6 Avant, which isn’t loaded at that price.

As exciting as it is to finally get an M5 Touring in the United States, we’ll be interesting to see if BMW takes the plunge with the intriguing BMW i5 Touring – aka its all-electric sibling. Some might say it wouldn’t make sense to bring that here, then again …

Woodcliff Lake, NJ – August 15, 2024… For the first time ever in the United States, BMW M presents the new BMW M5 Touring, a high-performance model offering a new level of utility to go with the race-bred performance, bold design, and superlative all-day comfort that are the hallmarks of an M5. The M Hybrid drivetrain produces 717 hp and 738 lb-ft to deliver intoxicating performance on road and track alike. And yet, the plug-in hybrid powertrain enables almost silent and locally emission-free driving, with a preliminary estimated range of up to 25 miles on a full charge. The unique concept of the new BMW M5 Touring is reflected in both its exterior design and its interior configuration and appointments. Prominently flared wheel arches and side skirts and the M-specific design of the front and rear aprons distinguish the BMW M5 Touring. Inside, the new M5 Touring has up to 57.6 cubic feet (estimated) of flexible load-carrying capacity for leisure activities and trips away.

BMW M first introduced a Touring variant back in 1992 alongside the second generation of the BMW M5 sedan, the E34. In 2007, the fourth generation of the high-performance sedan also gained a BMW M5 Touring sibling, the E61. And now the new edition means customers will be able to choose from two variants of the BMW M5 for only the third time in its 40-year history, and for the first time in North America.

The new BMW M5 Touring will make its North American debut at Pebble Beach Automotive Week on Thursday, August 15. It will be built at BMW Group Plant Dingolfing alongside the new BMW M5 sedan. The global market launch of the M5 Touring will commence in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Large air intake and newly designed BMW M kidney grille.

The front end leaves no doubt about its identity as an M5. At the center is the newly designed BMW M kidney grille, where the “M5” badge is displayed on the horizontal double-bar. While the center of the BMW M kidney grille houses the sensors for the driver assistance systems, the lower section holds two small air intakes that ensure optimum temperature control by efficiently channelling the onrushing air to the radiator. BMW Iconic Glow contour lighting for the grille is available as part of the Executive Package or as a standalone option.

Below the BMW M kidney grille is the central lower air intake. The Black high-gloss aperture in the front apron ensures a generous supply of cooling air. It is split by a central partition, which adds a bit of race-inspired design to the M-specific front end. With their triangular contouring, the side air intakes painted in body color accentuate the wide stance of the new BMW M5 Touring. Pronounced wheel arches and the sculptural surfaces around the BMW M kidney grille, headlights, and air intakes create a striking appearance.

The standard M Shadowline Lights with Full LED Headlights bring a clean, modern look to the typical four-eyed face with black trim on the inside of their housing.

Athletic silhouette with elegantly stretched Touring proportions, model-specific roof spoiler and prominently flared wheel arches.

When viewed from the side, the distinctive character of the new BMW M5 Touring is accentuated by the elegantly stretched roofline and roof spoiler. The greenhouse tapers at the rear, creating a powerful shoulder area strengthened by the prominent wheel arches of the new BMW M5 Touring. The character line above the flush door handles extends all the way to the rear lights on the Touring, lending a touch of grace to the silhouette. Side skirts painted in body color complete the muscular style at the point closest to the road – an additional, light-refracting edge strengthening the slim and athletic overall impression. The hunkered-down body and front/rear aprons extending low bring additional emphasis to the Touring’s imposing proportions. The aerodynamically optimized M exterior mirror caps are finished in Black high-gloss.

Broad, powerful rear end with monolithic surface treatment.

As at the front, generously sized surfaces create a strong appearance and assertively showcase the expressive rear end. The prominently flared rear wheel arches, the slim rear lights extending into the sides, and the vertical reflectors at the far outer edges of the rear accentuate the width and powerful stature of the Touring.

Along with the roof spoiler, a two-section diffuser helps to optimize the M5 Touring’s aerodynamics, increase traction, and adds a styling element inspired by Motorsport. The diffuser’s vertical divider references the split in the center of the front apron. The familiar M quad exhaust tailpipes in Black Chrome are integrated into the left and right of the rear apron.

M alloy wheels with axle-specific dimensions.

M double spoke alloy wheels, Style 951M, in a bi-color finish enhance the M5’s sporting presence. Their staggered dimensions – 20 inches at the front axle and 21 inches at the rear –optimize the transfer of cornering forces to the road. Fitted with 285/40 ZR20 tires at the front and 295/35 ZR21 tires at the rear, they ensure outstanding cornering and directional stability, as well as precise steering feel and exceptional traction, even under hard track driving.

The Style 951M wheel is also available finished in Jet Black, and may be fitted with either performance or high performance tires. Another M double-spoke wheel, Style 952M, is available finished in bi-color and is fitted with performance tires.

Expressive body colors; BMW Individual special paint finishes available from launch.

Customers can choose from ten expressive exterior paint shades for their new BMW  M5 Touring. These include the exclusive M variants Isle of Man Green metallic and Marina Bay Blue metallic along with a vast selection of BMW Individual special order paint finishes, offered from launch.

Powertrain. M TwinPower Turbo V8, fifth-generation BMW eDrive, and M xDrive.

The first M5 Touring for the US market arrives with an electrified drive system. The M Hybrid powertrain, closely related to the system that powers the M Hybrid V8 race car, unites a high-revving V8 engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology and an electric motor integrated into the transmission. The result is an exceptionally potent drive unit that generates both formidable performance and enhanced efficiency, and can even provide all-electric driving.

The combustion engine and electric motor generate a combined maximum output of 717 hp and peak system torque of 738 lb-ft. The intelligent interaction between the engine and the electric motor combined with chassis technology tuned perfectly to the drive system’s performance characteristics demonstrate the progress achieved through racing expertise gained over the decades by BMW Motorsport.

Perfectly orchestrated: the M Hybrid system in the BMW M5 Touring.

A product of fifth-generation BMW eDrive technology, the electric motor integrated into the 8-speed M Steptronic transmission endows the new BMW M5 Touring with extremely sharp power delivery. The electric motor’s instant thrust off the line and the V8 engine’s relentless build-up of power into the upper reaches of the rev ranges merge to produce extraordinary performance characteristics. Add the M Hybrid system’s similarly outstanding elasticity to the formula and the new BMW M5 Touring achieves an exceptional level of dynamic ability.

The BMW M5 Touring sprints to 60 mph from rest in an estimated 3.5 seconds and will reach 124 mph (200 kph) in an estimated11.1 seconds. The 738 lb-ft maximum system torque of the M Hybrid drive additionally provides outstanding flexibility, which is reflected in a 50–75 mph time of 3.1 seconds in fifth gear. The limited top speed of 155 mph is raised to 190 mph when the optional M Driver’s Package is specified.

The high output of the electric motor fitted in the new BMW M5 Touring also enables fully electric driving up to 87 mph. The 14.8 kWh HV battery allows an estimated maximum electric range of up to 25 miles on a full charge.

Muscular V8 engine with high-revving character typical of M models.

The 4.4-liter V8 under the hood of the new BMW M5 Touring combines the high-revving character typical of BMW M engines with the latest M TwinPower Turbo technology. Besides the pair of twin-scroll turbochargers, the package of technology also includes High Precision Injection, Double-VANOS variable camshaft timing, and an improved version of the VALVETRONIC fully variable valve timing tech, which comes with switchable rocker arms on the exhaust side, allowing gas exchange to be interrupted on the overrun. This has the effect of reducing the engine’s internal frictional losses, meaning that additional braking energy can be recuperated. The cross-bank exhaust manifold, a reinforced crankshaft drive, and upgraded turbochargers mounted close to the exhaust manifold with adapted indirect charge air cooling all factor in increasing the engine’s efficiency.

With its sustained power delivery across a wide load range, the combustion engine in the new BMW M5 Touring generates 577 hp from 5,600 to 6,500 rpm, while peak torque stands at 553 lb-ft between 1,800 and 5,400 rpm. The V8 has a rev limit of 7,200 rpm.

Electric motor with instantaneous power delivery and high torque.

The M Hybrid system’s electric motor is integrated into the 8-speed M Steptronic transmission together with its power electronics in a weight- and space-saving design. The fifth generation synchronous motor responds immediately to the accelerator with instant power delivery in the manner now familiar from electric motors. The electric motor contributes up to 194 hp to the maximum system output and up to 207 lb-ft to the maximum system torque.

Its nominal torque is boosted to an effective value of as much as 332 lb-ft at the transmission input for the motor with the help of a pre-gearing stage patented by BMW. This innovation enables the compact electric drive unit to generate effective propulsive power that could normally only be achieved using a far larger motor.

M Sound provides the aural accompaniment to the electric motor’s power delivery. This M-specific drive sound generates intuitive acoustic responses to movements of the accelerator, both in all-electric mode and when supplementing the power of the V8.

High-voltage battery, power electronics, and Combined Charging Unit with intelligent energy and heat management.

Like the electric motor, the high-voltage battery in the new BMW M5 Touring is also part of the latest, fifth generation of BMW eDrive technology. It is installed in the vehicle’s underbody to save space. This also results in a low center of gravity that lends itself to agile handling. The lithium-ion battery in the new BMW M5 Touring boasts a high energy density, allowing it to provide 14.8 kWh of usable energy.

The power electronics of the M Hybrid system ensure a seemless cooperation between engine and electric motor at all times. As well as providing an electric boost effect under acceleration, the electric motor of the new BMW M5 Touring also performs a supporting role under steady loads, helping to reduce the engine’s fuel consumption.

The M Hybrid system’s Combined Charging Unit supports AC charging at up to 11 kW, and 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. The system uses data on the outside temperature, predicted charging power, charge stroke between the current actual value and the target value, the remaining range, and the distance to the destination to calculate the target temperature at which the high-voltage battery can be charged at maximum power for the longest possible time.

In addition, the charging socket on the front side panel on the left-hand side of the new BMW M5 has a sensor that measures the temperature at the plug contacts and can therefore detect a possible instance of overheating at an early stage.

Integrated cooling system, model-specific engine and transmission mounts.

The integrated cooling system in the new BMW M5 Touring has been adapted to the demands of both everyday use and track driving. Large air intakes in the front ensure the inflow of cool air is maintained as required at all times. Generously sized heat exchangers and an integrated system for controlling the temperature of the combustion engine, the transmission including electric motor, and the high-voltage battery keep operating temperatures consistently at an optimum level.

An M5-specific, extremely rigid powertrain mounting makes an additional contribution to the performance-focused driving properties of the Touring. It is also a factor in the direct transmission of the car’s power to the road, its instant response and its precision when turning into corners.

8-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic, Launch Control, and Boost Control.

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.

A new Boost Control function enables a nearly instantaneous burst of speed when travelling between 20 and 90 mph. Pulling on the left-hand shift paddle for more than one second prompts all the powertrain and chassis systems to be switched to their sportiest setting. An alert on the information display indicates that this function has been initiated. When the driver pushes down hard on the accelerator, the M5 responds with immediate and truly ferocious acceleration.

Up to five operating modes allow drivers to choose the optimum setup at all times.

The interaction between the combustion engine and electric motor in the BMW M5 Touring can be adjusted by selecting specific operating modes for the M Hybrid system. The driver can call up the relevant menu using the M HYBRID button on the control panel in the center console and access it on the control display. Three driving modes are available as standard, with another two available optionally.

The default setting HYBRID gives the driver access to the full system output of the combustion engine and electric motor in tandem. The amount each drive source contributes to the performance experience depends on the drive configuration selected from the M Setup menu. In the Comfort setting, the electric motor is deployed more often, optimizing the efficiency of the new BMW M5 Touring. 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 electric motor and combustion engine is still available. In the drive system’s Sport and Sport Plus modes, the combustion engine is always engaged.

The ELECTRIC operating mode is for locally emission-free driving. In this mode, the V8 engine is only engaged if the driver pushes the accelerator into kickdown or switches to the transmission’s manual mode using the paddle shifters. Choosing the eCONTROL setting allows the charge of the high-voltage battery to be maintained at a constant level during a journey or increased by means of energy recuperation or by deliberately raising the combustion engine’s load points. In this way, battery capacity can be saved for pure-electric driving in urban areas later in the journey, for example.

Specifying the optional M Drive Professional adds DYNAMIC and DYNAMIC PLUS modes. These ensure the combustion engine and electric motor are both active and that the cooling system is conditioned for track driving. In DYNAMIC mode, the full system output is primed to deliver balanced, sustained high performance on the track. And DYNAMIC PLUS mode delivers the M Hybrid system’s full system power for a brief period for use on a circuit, for example.

Precise distribution of power with M xDrive and Active M Differential.

The M Hybrid drive system’s power is channelled to the road via the M xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive system. Its electronically controlled multi-plate clutch ensures fully variable distribution of power between the front and rear wheels. The latest version of the transfer case is more efficient, weighs less, and brings improvements in oil-level control and cooling. The transfer case’s torque capacity has also been increased to allow it to work in tandem with the powerful drive system in the new BMW M5 Touring.

The M xDrive system’s responses can also be adjusted via the M Setup menu. As well as the default 4WD setting, drivers can also choose 4WD Sport or 2WD mode. In 4WD Sport mode, the all-wheel-drive system’s rear-biased setup is more pronounced. To engage it, drivers will first need to switch to M Dynamic Mode or deactivate the DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) system. And only when DSC has been fully deactivated can 2WD mode be selected. Sending drive exclusively to the rear wheels without interventions from the DSC system will appeal to experienced drivers who prefer an unfiltered performance experience, e.g. when executing drift maneuvers on the track.

Working together with the M xDrive system is an electronically controlled differential lock in the rear axle of the new BMW M5 Touring, which further enhances traction, agility, and directional stability. Like the all-wheel-drive system, the Active M Differential is tailored specially to the performance characteristics of the M Hybrid drive system. It provides fully variable distribution of drive between the left and right rear wheels, adjusted to the situation at hand. The Active M Differential also helps to enhance dynamic cornering. Shifting power to the wheel on the outside of the corner mitigates understeer without the need for any brake inputs. In order to regulate power transfer as precisely as possible, both the M xDrive all-wheel-drive system and the Active M Differential are networked with the central transverse dynamics management of the new BMW M5 Touring.

Chassis and driving experience.

The dual nature of the new BMW M5 Touring enables it to deliver an enthralling driving experience on the track as well as in everyday use and on longer journeys. Its dynamic performance qualities set new standards. Key contributors here include a long wheelbase, wide tracks, a low center of gravity and a nearly perfect 50:50 weight distribution, as well as a body with improved rigidity and enhanced aerodynamics, and chassis technology that has been carefully tuned for the M Hybrid drive system.

Extremely stiff body structure with M-specific bracing elements.

An extensive package of precisely interlinked M-specific bracing elements focused on enhancing driving dynamics increases the longitudinal and torsional stiffness of the body structure. At the front of the new BMW M5 Touring, a shear panel that connects the spring strut towers with the bulkhead is used, along with model-specific tower-to-front end struts. Further strengthening elements can be found in the center and rear sections of the engine compartment.

At the back, the new BMW M5 Touring is fitted with model-specific underfloor bracing elements, including a cross-bar and a shear panel, as well as further stiffening elements for the luggage compartment. Furthermore, the mountings connecting the chassis to the body and the steering to the front axle subframe also have exceptional torsional rigidity.

Advanced chassis technology tuned for dynamic excitement and superb long-distance comfort.

The new BMW M5 Touring has exceptional dynamic handling capabilities thanks to the model-specific kinematic and elastokinematic properties of its sophisticated chassis technology. The double-wishbone front axle optimizes longitudinal and lateral rigidity, while the selective use of aluminium components lowers the weight of the unsprung mass. Newly designed wheel carriers, axle kinematics with large castor and kingpin angles, a lowered roll center, and model-specific elastomer bearings produce an outstanding combination of compelling dynamic potency and finely balanced comfort.

The five-link rear axle also comes in an M-specific design. Unsprung mass has been reduced by deploying an innovative sheet-steel construction for its links, together with aluminium components. The Touring’s longitudinal and transverse dynamics both benefit from new toe links, camber links, and trailing arms, while precise wheel guidance enhances straight-line poise, load-change characteristics, directional stability, and steering behavior. Stiffer mountings and model-specific elastokinematics have a positive effect on both agility and long-distance comfort.

M Servotronic steering and Integral Active Steering as standard.

The M Servotronic steering has been upgraded and brings together speed-sensitive power assistance and a variable steering ratio in the new BMW M5 Touring. This results in both accurate turn-in when powering through bends and effortless maneuvering at low speeds. The steering’s rigid bolted connection to the front axle subframe ensures optimal feedback from the road and a high degree of directional accuracy. The M Setup menu gives drivers the choice of a comfort-focused setting for the steering assistance or one optimized for sporty driving.

The new BMW M5 Touring is also equipped as standard with Integral Active Steering, which allows the rear wheels to be turned to an angle of up to 1.5° when steering. Turning them in the opposite direction to the front wheels at low speeds reduces the Touring’s turning circle. And turning them in the same direction at higher speeds improves both directional stability and cornering dynamics. Plus, in highly dynamic driving situations the system prompts the chassis control tech to make steering inputs to optimize directional stability and agility.

Adaptive M suspension with electronically controlled dampers.

The new BMW M5 Touring also comes standard with Adaptive M suspension. Its electronically controlled dampers optimize road contact in all driving situations, reduce the body’s tendency to roll through higher-speed corners, and enhance driving comfort. The Adaptive M suspension improves the suppression of body vibrations regardless of vehicle speed, as the highest damping forces are only ever triggered when required and only for a few milliseconds. As a result, the suspension absorbs large bumps with a smoothness that keeps the body perfectly connected to the road at all times. Adjusting the damper forces as the situation demands also improves traction when pulling away and stopping power when braking sharply.

The basic shock absorber characteristics can be adjusted via the M Setup menu. The Comfort, Sport, and Sport Plus modes provide drivers with a choice of three settings, ranging from very comfortable to a performance-focused setup. The responses of the Integral Active Steering system are adjusted together with the shock absorbers.

Integrated braking system with individually selectable settings fitted as standard; M Carbon ceramic brakes optional.

The integrated braking system in the BMW M5 Touring brings together the brake activation, brake booster and braking control functions within a single module. An electric actuator is used to help generate the required brake pressure.

Braking is handled by the standard M Compound brakes or optional M Carbon ceramic brakes. Both have six-piston fixed-calliper brakes at the front axle and single-piston floating-calliper brakes at the rear. The M Compound discs measure 16.1-inches at the front and 15.7-inches at the rear, and the calipers are painted blue as standard or red or black as an option. The M Carbon ceramic brakes bring reduced weight (they are around 55 lbs. lighter), stronger braking power, a greater ability to withstand fade, further enhanced thermal stability, and high resistance to wear. Other features of the M Carbon brakes are the calipers painted in Gold metallic and larger 16.5-inch discs at the front.

Intelligent networking for enhanced dynamics, agility and precision.

The introduction of the integrated braking system on the new BMW M5 Touring is accompanied by further updates for the DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) functions. As the braking control function is also integrated into the system’s central module, corrective inputs are now applied with greater precision. The anti-lock braking system (ABS) and Cornering Brake Control (CBC) are both enhanced by the integrated braking system, likewise the stability control system for preventing oversteer and understeer, and the Automatic Differential Brake (ADB-X), Brake Assist, Dry Braking function, Start-Off Assistant and Automatic Hold functions.

The near-actuator wheel slip limitation tech fitted in the new BMW M5 Touring enables highly sensitive acceleration control on wet, snow-covered, or icy surfaces or on roads with inconsistent grip levels. The integration of this traction control system into the engine management eliminates the long signal paths to the DSC control unit. This allows corrective inputs to be applied up to ten times faster than in conventional systems. Because near-actuator wheel slip limitation responds so quickly to any loss of traction, especially when accelerating hard or taking corners at speed, the DSC system has to intervene far less frequently with selective applications of the brakes at individual wheels to maintain composed and assured handling.

This function is networked with the central transverse dynamics management, as are Performance Control, the M xDrive all-wheel-drive system, the Active M Differential and the steering’s control systems. This ensures that all the functions act in a coordinated manner to produce a well-resolved driving experience worthy of the M badge in all situations. 

Driver assistance systems with highly configurable functionality.

The new BMW M5 Touring is available either as standard or optionally with a broad selection of driver assistance systems. The functionality of these systems has also been improved thanks to the integrated braking system and networked transverse dynamics management.

The standard-fitted systems include Forward Collision Mitigation, Lane Keeping Assistant and Speed Limit Info, along with the Driving Assistant including Active Blind Spot Detection and Speed Limit Assistant. The Parking Assistant, now standard, incorporates features such as the Backup Assistant, Active Park Distance Control, and Lateral Parking Assistant.

On the options list is the Driving Assistant Professional, which permits the Lane Keeping Assistant with Side Collision Protection and Distance Control to be used when travelling at highway speeds. At lower speeds up to 40 mph, the Traffic Jam Assistant can provide attentive, unlimited hands-free driving to ease the strain of especially dense traffic situations on limited access highways.

The functions of the driver assistance system can be configured to personal preference using the M Mode button on the center console. In the Sport setting, all interventions in the car’s braking and steering systems are suspended, with the exception of those triggered by the Forward Collision Mitigation system and the Evasion Assistant. Instead, only warning alerts flagging up speed limits or overtaking restrictions, for example, are given. In cars with the optional M Drive Professional, Track mode – conceived for use strictly on race tracks – can be selected. Here, all the advanced driver assistance systems are fully deactivated.

Interior design and equipment.

A cockpit designed to deliver a focused performance experience and the M-specific operating concept for adapting the vehicle setup to personal preferences come together in an exclusive, premium ambience featuring modern design elements, high-quality materials, and luxurious equipment features. Added to this is the versatile interior space with which the BMW M5 Touring takes sports-car flair into a whole new dimension.

M leather steering wheel with gearshift paddles and M buttons.

With its multifunction buttons, two programmable M buttons, and gearshift paddles for sequential interventions in the gear selection process, the latest generation of M leather steering wheel has an authentic racing-car feel about it. Sporting a three-spoke design, it comes with a red center marker in the 12-o’clock position, a flat-bottomed rim, and stitching in BMW M tricolor. The horizontal spokes of the new steering wheel have narrow cut-outs and multifunction buttons. Steering wheel heating is standard.

The programmable M buttons above the horizontal spokes are trapezoidal in shape, taking their cue from the contours of the M-specific displays. They are finished in M Red metallic and are illuminated at night. The gearshift paddles on the steering wheel also have a new design. Their surfaces are finished in Black high-gloss, while the cut-out plus and minus symbols have red contour lines. When the optional M Drive Professional is fitted, the left-hand paddle is marked BOOST.

M-specific control panel and individual vehicle configurations.

The control panel on the center console houses the red start/stop button, the newly designed gear selector toggle, the BMW iDrive Controller, the roller control for the audio, and the M-specific buttons for the setup options. The iDrive Controller has an M logo outline design and, like the Black high-gloss gear selector toggle and the audio system’s roller, it is accented in Dark Silver.

The control panel also has dedicated buttons for selecting the DSC system settings, the M Hybrid drive system’s operating mode, the M Mode for the displays and driver assistance systems, and the settings for the overall setup of the new M5 Touring. Pressing the Setup button calls up the M Setup menu in the control display. Drivers can then use touch control to configure their desired settings for the drive system, transmission, suspension, steering, braking system and M xDrive, as well as for the intensity of energy recuperation.

M Multifunction seats in optional Full Merino Metallic leather trim variant enhance support and comfort over longer journeys.

Customers can choose to outfit the standard M Multifunction Seats in one of four shades of Extended Merino Leather; Black, Silverstone/Black bi-color, Red/Black bi-color, and Kyalami Orange/Black bi-color.

Beginning in the Spring of 2025, customers will be able to specify BMW Individual Full Merino Metallic leather trim in Black/Dark Violet bi-color and Taupe Grey/Deep Lagoon bi-color. The unique finish creates a striking effect for the head and shoulder areas of the M Multifunction Seats and imparts an exclusive and technical aura to the interior with surfaces that vary their appearance according to the prevaling light. This is made possible by a refinement process called High Definition Design (HDD), and BMW is the first carmaker to use this process in one of its products. HDD creates a unique, three-dimensional ornamentation in the leather, featuring clear contours and seamless transitions between areas higher up in the interior and those lower down.

Model-specific interior lighting, BMW Interaction Bar and standard ambient lighting.

Alongside the lighting for the smartphone tray, center armrest and handle recess in the door panel trim, the interior lighting also comprises a Welcome Animation with light signals in the BMW M tricolor. Also helping to create the exclusive on-board ambience is the BMW Interaction Bar spanning the instrument panel into the front door panel trim. Integrated into the instrument panel with a crystalline appearance, this combined light-bar/toolbar includes control surfaces for the ventilation settings, rear window heating, and hazard warning lights.

The standard ambient lighting provides atmospheric illumination for the footwells, the door pockets, the cup holders, the interior trim elements, the audio system’s midrange speakers integrated into the door panel trim, and the backs of the front seats. The colors used for the light effects vary according to the M Mode selected. In Track mode, the lighting is fully switched off.

The new BMW M5 Touring comes standard with interior trim elements in Aluminium Rhombicle. Options include M Carbon Fiber with high-gloss silver threads and BMW Individual Dark Oak high-gloss fine-wood trim. All the interior trim variants are accented in Dark Silver.

Extensive standard equipment, including the Sky Lounge Panoramic Roof.

The premium ambiance of the new BMW M5 Touring is underlined by the array of luxurious equipment features fitted as standard to enhance comfort and diving pleasure. For example, a Bowers & Wilkins Surround Sound System with 18 speakers and 655-watts of crystal clear power. Illuminated metal covers for the door-mounted speakers underscore the exclusive character of the sound system.

The standard Sky Lounge Panoramic Roof functions as a structural module and extends in a single section from just behind the windscreen far to the rear of the vehicle. This floods the interior with light and gives the exterior an even more elegant appearance that is neatly set off by roof trim strips in Black high-gloss. An electrically operated roller blind is standard to provide interior shading.

Modern functionality for everyday use, leisure, and longer journeys.

Opening the rear tailgate reveals a 17.7 cubic foot luggage area (preliminary estimate). The backrests of the rear seats are split 40:20:40 and can be folded down to expand load capacity to 57.6 cubic feet (preliminary estimate). The rear seat back is also equipped with a pass through as standard, making it easier to transport larger items of luggage, ski bags, golf bags, and other long items. Automatic tailgate operation and Comfort Access are also standard, enabling hands-free opening and closing of the tailgate.

Display and control/operation system, connectivity. New BMW iDrive and innovative digital services.

The BMW Curved Display in the cockpit provides the ideal platform from which to configure the drive settings in the new M5 Touring from the M Setup menu quickly and intuitively by touch on the control display. The new display and control/operation is based on BMW Operating System 8.5, and offers M-specific displays for all other vehicle functions such as navigation, communications and climate control, and enables use of a significantly increased selection of innovative digital services.

The latest generation of BMW iDrive is geared to operation using the touchscreen and natural speech. But as well as the control display with touch control and the BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant, it encompasses the multifunction buttons on the steering wheel, the iDrive Controller on the center console, and the BMW Head-Up Display, which projects relevant driving information directly into the driver’s field of vision on the windscreen, also with M-specific graphics.

The new generation of BMW iDrive also expands the repetoire abilities of the BMW Intelligent Personal Assistant. For example, naturally spoken instructions can now be used in the new BMW M5 Touring to adjust the seat position, start Automatic Park Assistant, or activate M Sound.

M-specific readouts and graphics on the BMW Curved Display.

Inside the cockpit of the new BMW M5 Touring, the BMW Curved Display impresses with modern graphics, dynamic light effects, and expressive colour worlds. The fully digital screen grouping is made up of a 12.3-inch information display and a 14.9-inch control display.

Within the information display directly in front of the driver, the vehicle speed is shown on the left, both as a number and as a digital scale, along with further information such as the fuel level and the status of the driver assistance systems. The right-hand section indicates engine speed, current gear, the transmission’s Drivelogic setting, as well as the charge level of the high-voltage battery and the setup selected using the M button on the steering wheel. The familiar M Shift Lights appear at the top of the information display, while an indicator bar along the lower edge notifies the driver of the status of the driving stability systems, M xDrive, and traction control, among other things.

The fully digital screen grouping provides a clear overview of the various menu options in the form of widgets on the control display’s home screen, which can be arranged to suit personal preferences. A number of special widgets are also available in the new BMW M5 Touring containing information on the current vehicle setup, as well as tire pressure and temperature. Users can return to the home screen from any of the submenus with a tap of the finger on the home icon at the lower edge of the control display. Icons for direct access to the climate control, audio system, communications, and All Apps menus can also be found here.

BMW Head-Up Display with M-specific readouts and BMW Maps navigation system as standard.

The BMW Head-Up Display is included with the standard BMW Live Cockpit Professional in the new BMW M5. It projects information relevant to driving – including a multi-colored tachometer, shift lights, and M View – onto the windscreen, again in an M-specific style.

The cloud-based BMW Maps navigation system is also part of standard equipment. It offers extremely fast and dynamic route calculation, based on precise real-time traffic data transmitted at short intervals. BMW Maps also enables charging-optimized route planning on longer journeys.

The Augmented View function can be added of the navigation system’s map view as standard. Here, a live video stream from the driver’s perspective can be shown on either the control or information display and augmented by supplementary information that matches the context.

Video streaming and AirConsole games on the control display.

BMW Operating System 8.5 offers a wide range of digital content for information and entertainment, shorter function update cycles, and improved accessibility to a host of specific online services. The driver and passengers in the new BMW M5 Touring can make use of video streaming offerings to enjoy a wide range of entertainment on the control display when the car is stationary. Available alongside YouTube is the video app (DTS AutoStage Video Service powered by TiVo™), which brings an ever-expanding range of content, such as news, live, and on-demand streaming.

Another way of passing the time while waiting for the vehicle to recharge or be refuelled, for example, is in-car gaming via the AirConsole platform. The driver and passengers can play casual games in single-player or multi-player mode when the car is stationary. They only need their smartphone, which will serve as a controller, and the gaming experience on the BMW Curved Display is ready to go. The continuously growing portfolio of playable titles includes racing, sports, and quiz games.

Optimal connectivity: Personal eSIM, BMW ID, My BMW App, 5G mobile communications and Remote Software Upgrades.

Standard specification for the new BMW M5 Touring also includes optimized smartphone integration using Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. Plus, the Personal eSIM allows the customer to use the communication and connectivity functions covered by their mobile contract from their car with ease. The new BMW M5 Touring is essentially turned into another digital device in the customer’s ecosystem. The Personal eSIM is not linked just to the car, but to the user’s BMW ID.

Personalising the user experience with the BMW ID is very straightforward in the new BMW M5 Touring. All that’s required is an initial sign-in from the customer inside the car using a smartphone and a QR code. Their personal profile is then imported and synchronizable settings are loaded. The vehicle is also added to the My BMW App in the relevant profile without further input from the customer.

The My BMW App provides information on the vehicle’s status, such as its remaining range and any service and maintenance requirements. It also enables remote use of functions such as locating the vehicle, locking/unlocking the doors or monitoring the car’s immediate vicinity and interior with Remote View. The My BMW App can also be used to control charging processes.

A 5G-compatible antenna system optimizes reception for making telephone calls and to enable the data transfer required for in-car gaming, video streaming, and other online-based services. Up to ten devices can connect to the internet at any one time via a mobile hotspot.

The Remote Software Upgrades function keeps the new BMW M5 Touring right up to date with the latest software at all times. Upgrades may include free quality improvements, updates or even additional features (availability depends on country, vehicle model, equipment and vehicle status). Plus, the BMW ConnectedDrive Store allows customers to test selected functions free of charge for a pre-defined time, after which they can add them from the Store for a specific period.

This optimized connectivity and innovative digital technology also underpin the new customer service Proactive Care. Foremost is its ability to recognize the vehicle’s service requirements using artificial intelligence and proactively offer the customer solutions, which are then actioned via the most appropriate channel in each case, depending on urgency.

BMW Digital Key Plus, M-specific welcome scenarios.

The My BMW App can also be used to set up the BMW Digital Key Plus, which is available for the Apple iPhone and Apple Watch and compatible Android smartphones. The BMW Digital Key Plus enables customers to lock and unlock their new BMW M5 Touring with a smartphone or smartwatch by means of security-enhanced ultra-wideband (UWB) radio technology – dispensing with the need for a conventional car key. The user does not need to take their smartphone out of their pocket as, if desired, the car will unlock itself as they approach.

The new BMW M5 features as standard a welcome scenario that consists of an orchestrated activation of the exterior and interior lights. On vehicles equipped with the BMW Icon Glow illuminated kidney grille, it concludes with a dynamic Welcome Light Carpet with M-specific graphics projected from the vehicle sill onto the ground just outside the doors. The scenario is triggered as the driver approaches the car, and the car key or a smartphone or smartwatch with BMW Digital Key Plus is located. The M-specific Welcome Animation in the interior includes a display of the signature M colors in the form of a chaser light running from the driver’s side to the front-passenger side. The Goodbye Animation involves a gradual dimming of the interior lighting.

2025 BMW M5 Touring Confirmed for North America

Long-roof fans, rejoice!

BMW on Thursday confirmed what we all suspected: the M5 Touring will join the sedan when the high-performance mid-sizer launches later this year. This will be the first time an M5 Touring has been available for sale in Canada and the US.

The next-generation M5, both the sedan and wagon variants, have been making the camouflaged rounds in Germany and America for some time now. While we haven't seen either model in full glory quite yet, we expect the new M5s to take a rather traditional M approach, applying more aggressive front and rear fascias to the current eighth-generation 5 Series, wider tracks front and rear, and the trademark quartet of tailpipes.

As for what's underhood, the M5 will stick to an eight-cylinder engine, just as it has for all but one generation since the beginning of this century. The difference this time around is the addition of a hybrid component. BMW says "the next M5 Touring will feature an M Hybrid drivetrain closely related to the one found in the BMW M Hybrid V8 GTP race car." That race car runs a bespoke 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 that was first introduced in BMW's DTM racer back in 2010; we expect the M5's powertrain to instead have more in common with the XM. In the SUV, the 4.4-liter plug-in hybrid powertrain puts out 644 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque; the XM Label pumps those figures up to 738 hp and 738 lb-ft.

What we think

Needless to say, we're excited to see an M5 with an added dash of practicality and—to our eyes—style. Most of our experience with the current 5 Series has been with the electric models, which has shown the latest platform is an excellent foundation with solid blend of comfort and agility. Drop in an XM powertrain and you've got the power and sound necessary for a bonefide M product. Both Mercedes-AMG and Audi have found success with their respective hi-po haulers; can the market handle a third?

• The next-generation BMW M5 Touring will be offered as a wagon alongside the sedan, marking a return to the wagon format after several generations.
• The M5 Touring is expected to have a visually appealing design with a wider body, hunkered-down stance, and aggressive styling that enhances the current 5 Series's aesthetics.
• The next-generation M5 Touring will likely be the most powerful M5 ever, incorporating electrification as standard and possibly featuring a plug-in hybrid V-8 drivetrain similar to the BMW XM.

The BMW M5 has been one of the quintessential luxury sports sedans. The sports sedan term is so strongly associated with the M5 nameplate that it's hard to imagine a world where the M5 was never conceived. In 2024, the M5's long-storied history continues, and you can expect quite a lot of changes when the next-generation M5 comes out.

That's because, for the first time since the E60 generation, which came with a Formula One-derived V-10 , the next-generation M5 is confirmed to once again be offered as a wagon (or Touring in BMW's marketing speak) alongside the sedan. The German automaker, in fact, recently teased over the holiday season an M5 Touring that's been gift-wrapped and ready for Christmas.

A Love Letter To BMW's B58, An Inline-6 You Should Own Now

No other brand does inline-6s like BMW and chief among those engines is the ever-ubiquitous B58--an engine that's so good, it's nearly flawless.

In order to give you the most up-to-date and accurate information possible, the data used to compile this article was sourced from various manufacturer websites and other authoritative sources, including BMW and BMWBlog.

The BMW M5 Touring Is Coming

So, the BMW M5 Touring is coming to town, and though it's arriving way after the Christmas season, there are still plenty of reasons to be festive as the next-generation M5 Touring is set to arrive sometime this year. Apart from the fact that turning anything into a wagon instantly makes a car a thousand times better, the M5 Touring is set to come with a broader breadth of capabilities.

It Should Look Sick From Every Angle

Whether you agree with me or not, the current G60 BMW 5 Series looks really good--well, unless it's specced in a way that it comes with small wheels, then yeah, the 5 Series can look dorky. With the bigger wheels, though, the 5 Series looks very striking and sporty--especially with the optional M Sport package. Turn it into a wagon, however, and things get more visually interesting.

We have yet to see what the all-new 5 Series will look like in Touring form, but we're confident that--as with every other wagon in the BMW stable, it'll subjectively look better than its sedan sibling. In fact, if these teaser shots showcasing a camouflaged M5 Touring are any indication, then we can already tell that its long roof silhouette is already doing justice to the proportions of the current 5 Series.

Combine that with the wider body, hunkered-down stance, and aggressiveness of a BMW M car, then you've got a wagon that will look good from any angle. It also certainly helps that the 5 Series thankfully didn't inherit the large kidney grilles of the M3 and M4, so that's a bonus, too.

It'll Be Luxurious And Practical As Hell

The current G60 5 Series has one of the nicest interiors in the segment. The materials are great and in typical BMW fashion, the build quality is sublime. It also looks great, and while the climate control switches have been integrated into the iDrive 8.5 infotainment screen, BMW has kept a few physical controls such as the volume scroller and the iDrive controller knob intact, so it's not all bad when it comes to the user interface.

The 5 Series is also quite spacious at the back, but in wagon form, it's an even better place for both humans and cargo. So, not only do you get a nicer-looking car, but you also get a very practical luxury car with supercar-like performance. Indeed, wagons are the best of all worlds.

Here's What Makes The 2024 BMW 550e PHEV Worth The Wait

With a standard inline-six for the North American 5 Series PHEV, BMW is combining the best of ICE and electrification in one neat package.

It Could Be The Most Powerful M5 Ever

The outgoing F90 BMW M5 already had a lot of power. It produced anywhere from 591 in the standard M5, all the way to 626 horsepower in the M5 CS. Therefore, you should only expect the next-generation M5 to be more powerful and more capable in every way, but in order to achieve that in an age of stricter emissions regulations, BMW M will be seeing help from the power of electrification.

Electrification Comes As Standard

For the first time, the BMW M5 and M5 Touring will be coming with electrification as standard. No, not pure electric, but electrification. While BMW M has confirmed the M5's electrified direction, the company has not yet revealed any details on what we can expect. In a an official announcement when the company started teasing the M5 Touring, BMW said:

Just like the future BMW M5 Sedan, the Touring variant will also feature a completely newly developed partially electrified drive system. Its M-typical performance characteristics as well as the precisely tuned chassis technology refined with innovative systems facilitate driving dynamics and agility at a level unique in this vehicle class. Thus, BMW M GmbH is steadily progressing on its path to electrification.

Although we cannot confirm this yet, the next-generation M5 getting a plug-in hybrid V-8 drivetrain is a possibility. If that sounds familiar, that's because it's a setup that the current BMW XM already utilizes. It is possible that this could be the setup that the M5 might adopt since this is an electrified drivetrain that the German automaker doesn't need to develop from the ground up--thus saving on development costs.

Expect The M5 Touring To Be Very Powerful

In the XM, the 4.4-liter twin-turbo V-8 plug-in hybrid powertrain produces anywhere from 644 horsepower for the standard model, all the way to a whopping 738 horses in the range-topping Label Red . We're not sure if the XM Label Red's tuning will make its way into the M5 Touring or in any M5 version for that matter, but imagine the performance of this model if it inherited that same output in a much lighter, sleeker wagon body.

Again, while concrete details have yet to be laid out, the XM's V-8 plug-in hybrid powertrain is, unsurprisingly, linked to a ZF eight-speed automatic and an all-wheel drive (AWD) system called M xDrive in the case of these BMW M cars. This system is rear-biased for most of the time.

It's only when the system thinks that the rear wheels can't handle all that power that it starts sending power to the front wheels. However, where the F90 M5 stood out is its ability to go fully rear-wheel drive (RWD) if you want to execute those tail-happy drifts. We're not sure if the next-generation M5 will still come with this drive mode, but we won't be surprised if it still does.

10 Things Every Enthusiast Should Know About BMW M

BMW M, the German automaker's motorsports division, has been around for decades, and here are 10 facts that every super-fan must know

And There's A High Probability It's Coming To America

We know how much Americans are so obsessed with SUVs, which is why we're not surprised that BMW's bestseller for the American market is the X5 midsize SUV . The demand for SUVs has prevented brands from offering their wagons in the United States, but ever since the Audi RS6's recent success, it's now understood that in the higher-end segment, there's a legitimate business case for offering a wagon.

Yes, The M5 Touring Is Being Tested In The States

Further adding confidence to the possibility of the M5 Touring being sold in the United States is this spy shot of the said high-performance wagon being tested on American soil. Initially posted on BMWBlog, the M5 Touring was caught testing in Los Angeles . Sure, the heavy camouflage does hide some of the design details of the M5 Touring, but there's no way around its wider body, aggressive front and rear fascias, flushed door handles, and beautiful long roof proportions.

It also must be noted that the M5 Touring won't be the only wagon 5 Series to exist for this generation because, for the first time, an i5 Touring will also be offered. BMW's first-ever electric wagon is still yet to be confirmed for the United States, nor have any prototypes been spotted on American soil, so the i5 Touring's fate in America is still unknown.

More Details To Be Revealed This Year

BMW M has already confirmed that the M5 Touring will debut this year alongside the M5 sedan, though giving us an early glimpse of what the M5 Touring could look like is the reveal of the standard 5 Series Touring. BMW has already confirmed that the standard 5 Series Touring (and potentially the i5 Touring) will be revealed in the spring of 2024 , while the M5 Touring and sedan could follow shortly, most likely in the summer of 2024. If everything goes to plan, it's safe to predict that the M5 Touring will hit showrooms in late 2024 for the 2025 model year.

If you can't wait for the M5 to arrive, the next best thing to wait for is the M Performance version of the 5 Series called the M560e . Unlike the M550i it's replacing, this will come with a plug-in hybrid inline-six, with 565 horses and a four-second 0-62 mph (100 km/h) time.

At the other end of the M Performance spectrum is the i5 M60, which is purely electric and comes with two electric motors that produce a total of 593 horses and a 0-62 mph time of just 3.8 seconds. With these numbers already nearly as fast as the outgoing F90 M5, we can only expect BMW M to pull out all the stops and make the M5 and M5 Touring the fastest M5 models ever.

The 2025 BMW M5 Touring Looking Great Even Under the Camouflage

Home » The 2025 BMW M5 Touring Looking Great Even Under the Camouflage

Horatiu Boeriu

October 22, 2023 / 2 minutes read

I’m particularly thrilled about the upcoming release of the all-new BMW M5 Touring next year. After a long hiatus, the dynamic and sporty M5 Wagon is making a comeback! The 2025 BMW M5 Touring is set to be revealed in the summer, with customers expected to get their hands on it in late or early 2025. Currently, BMW is conducting extensive testing on the M5 Wagon as it prepares for its market debut. In these recently captured spy photos, we can catch a glimpse of the vehicle’s proportions and its sporty design, and even though it’s under camouflage, the anticipation is at an all-time high.

Coming to the United States

You might wonder, why am I so excited? Well, mainly because, unlike the M3 Touring , the G99 M5 Wagon is expected to be available in the United States. Although BMW hasn’t officially confirmed this yet, if we were to make a bet, we’d say the chances are quite promising. Remaining faithful to its M lineage, the upcoming BMW M5 Touring (G99) embraces a wide-body design that sets it apart from the standard 5 Series models. As expected, the rear fenders are significantly broad, creating a distinctive and unmistakable visual separation for the G90/G99 M5.

Design Based on the i5 M60

The front-end is clearly based on the BMW i5 M60 and the rear will certainly follow the design lines of the upcoming BMW i5 M60 Touring . Despite the extensive camouflage, discernible features include a massive front bumper designed in the typical M fashion, adorned with a large air intake and air breathers. The kidney grille also bears a distinct resemblance to the one found on the BMW i5 M60, characterized by horizontal slats.

The headlights are expected to be in line with those of the new 5 Series, ensuring no major surprises in that regard. Additionally, these spy photos reveal seamlessly integrated door handles and a set of four exhaust pipes. Underneath the camouflage, a fresh set of taillights emerges, comprised of a pair of slender horizontal LED strips. Adding to its visual presence, the 2024 BMW M5 Touring features sleek side skirts and an understated roof spoiler.

First-Ever Plug-in Hybrid BMW M5

The powertrain within the 2025 BMW M5 Touring has been completely overhauled. It now combines a plug-in hybrid system with the brand-new S68 4.4-liter V8 engine, resulting in a formidable minimum output of 718 horsepower for its standard model. Although the exact torque figures are not yet confirmed, we anticipate them to be on par with the BMW XM Label Red, boasting 738 lb-ft of torque. As a plug-in hybrid, the upcoming BMW M5 Touring will also operate on electric power.

The previous iteration of the M5 was produced in the E61 Touring (wagon) body style, exclusively available in the European market. Therefore, the prospect of having an M5 Touring in the United States is undeniably thrilling for M enthusiasts and car collectors alike.

Nouveauté : BMW M5 Touring, le break Moby Dick avec 727 ch (2024)

La BMW M5 est de retour en version Touring ! Ces performances sont toujours aussi impressionnantes, tant en termes de puissance que de poids. On parie que vous ne devineriez pas son poids ?

Le logo ///M et le mot Touring, voilà une combinaison qui fait rêver tous les amateurs de voitures. Après la M3 Touring , voici la M5 Touring. Plus grande...à tous points de vue !

Mélange de confort et de sportivité

Le design n'est déjà plus une surprise. Il suffit de prendre une M5 Berline et une Série 5 Touring, de mélanger les deux et hop, voici la M5 Touring. Le train avant les élargi, l’arrière aussi, la calandre s’offre des entrées d’air supplémentaires et, à l’arrière, on trouve les quatre sorties d’échappement emblématiques.

L’habitacle est un mélange de confort et de sportivité. D'une part, une finition soignée avec l’impressionnant Curved Display et un éclairage à LED élégant, d'autre part, deux sièges sport géants à l'avant et un volant sport M tout aussi grand. Les touches de rouge doivent faire comprendre qu'il ne s'agit pas d'une 520d Touring, alors que le coffre fait toujours la même taille. Le volume est de 500 litres et il peut atteindre un maximum de 1 630 litres. Comme ça, le chien peut aussi profiter des performances…

Quelle performance... quel poids

Enfin, seulement si le conducteur parvient à contrôler son pied droit. Pas étonnant quand on sait qu'à l'avant se trouve un V8 biturbo de 4,4 litres qui bénéficie aujourd'hui d'une assistance électrique. Résultat ? 727 ch, 1 000 Nm de couple et une vitesse de pointe de 305 km/h. Ça, c’est du break rapide…

L'excès ne s'arrête pas là, puisque le 0-100 km/h de 3,6 secondes est également impressionnant, tout comme le poids à vide de 2 475 kg. Bien sûr, cela est dû à cette motorisation hybride rechargeable qui abrite également une batterie de 18,6 kWh. Cette dernière permet de parcourir 67 km en mode électrique et les émissions de CO2 de ce monstre s'élèvent à 46 g/km. C’est presque dérisoire compte tenu des performances.
