The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5 (fuel consumption combined: Ten.Five l/100 km [26.9 mpg imp]*; CO2 emissions combined: two hundred forty one g/km*) takes BMW M GmbH into fresh territory, with M xDrive all-wheel drive featuring in the high-performance sedan for the very first time. This switch of tack sees the M5 exploring fresh dynamic dimensions and suggesting greater everyday practicality in all driving conditions. The fresh car is committed to building on the tradition of a concept – the luxurious four-door business sedan with a taste for the race track – very first glimpsed in one thousand nine hundred eighty four with the original BMW M5.

The fresh M xDrive developed by BMW M GmbH is the most emotionally engaging all-wheel-drive system yet to grace the high-performance segment. It works with a central transfer case with multi-plate clutch and distributes drive fully variably inbetween the front and rear axle, as required. Another ingredient in the car’s supreme traction in all road and weather conditions is the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which also works fully variably and has a locking effect inbetween zero and one hundred per cent.

The character of M xDrive can be adjusted as desired. The driver has five different configurations to choose from based on combinations of the DSC modes (DSC on, MDM, DSC off) and M xDrive modes (4WD, 4WD Sport, 2WD). In the basic setting with DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) activated and 4WD, the system permits slight slip through the rear wheels when accelerating out of corners – and therefore plays its part in providing the fresh BMW M5 its sporting agility. In M Dynamic mode (MDM, 4WD Sport) M xDrive permits lightly managed drifts. The three M xDrive modes with DSC switched off have been conceived to sate the appetites of keen drivers and primarily for use on the track. Here, the driver can choose from three configurations up to and including unspoiled rear-wheel drive (2WD). This mode permits the driver to pick their own drift angle and treats connoisseurs to driving dynamics in their purest form.

Providing ample power for the fresh BMW M5 is a Four.4-litre V8 bi-turbo engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. The M engineers have carried out significant revisions to the outgoing model’s power unit. For example, freshly developed turbochargers, ultra-efficient indirect charge air cooling and enlargened fuel injection pressure together help to raise output and, above all, torque. The engine develops four hundred forty one kW/600 hp at Five,600 – 6,700 rpm, while a monumental seven hundred fifty Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque is placed at the driver’s disposition from as low down as 1,800 rpm and remains there until Five,600 rpm. A map-controlled, fully variable oil pump ensures oil is supplied as and when the fresh BMW M5 needs it, even on the track. The car’s exceptional spectacle figures speak for themselves: zero to one hundred km/h (62 mph) in just Three.Four seconds, zero to two hundred km/h in 11.1 seconds (124 mph). Top speed, meantime, is an electronically limited two hundred fifty km/h (155 mph), but the optional M Driver’s Package can keep the joy coming to three hundred five km/h (189 mph).

The fresh BMW M5 channels all that power through a specially tuned eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic. In D mode it provides all the convenience and convenience of fully automatic gear switches, but can then also switch to sequential manual shifts. The driver can do this using either the compact selector lever on the centre console or the steering wheel-mounted paddles. Drivelogic permits the driver to adjust the transmission’s characteristics to their private preferences. For track use, the eight-speed M Steptronic unit serves up lightning-fast shift times, helping to give the fresh BMW M5 its exceptional agility and dynamic flair.

The suspension of the fresh BMW M5 is likewise designed to produce both maximum traction for everyday use and supreme dynamic spectacle on the track. Like the engine, transmission and M xDrive system, it has been tuned by experts and racing drivers at venues including the world’s most exacting test facility – the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit. Sophisticated stiffening elements in the front and rear structures ensure the bod structure is enormously rigid and therefore that the car provides instantaneous feedback, in particular when the driver is pushing hard on the road or track.

The driver can also choose from Convenience, Sport and Sport Plus modes for the Variable Damper Control (VDC) system – which has M-specific tuning – and the M Servotronic steering. And the engine’s characteristics can also be configured to the driver’s tastes via the Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus modes. The two M1 and M2 buttons on the M leather steering wheel can be used to store two set-ups combining the driver’s preference of engine, transmission, suspension and M xDrive modes, the DSC mode and Head-Up-Display settings. The driver can then activate their preferred set-up by pressing the relevant button.

The fresh BMW M5 includes revisions to its bodywork over the regular BMW five Series to sate its challenging dynamic brief. The M engineers have redesigned the broader front side panels and front bumper trim to include larger apertures for the air feeding the cooling systems and brakes. Also fresh is the rear diffuser. The harass system’s quartet of tailpipes are a visual pointer to the power generated by the BMW M5 and also lay on a suitably sporting soundtrack for the job in mitt, courtesy of their flap control system. The driver can use a button to adjust the engine sound as desired.

The bonnet, which also has an M-specific design, is made from aluminium and boasts eye-catching sculpture lines. These extend into the utterly lightweight carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof – a standard feature of the fresh M5. The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston stationary callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

The fresh BMW M5 comes as standard with polished 19-inch light-alloy wheels (front: 9.Five x Nineteen, rear: Ten.Five x Nineteen) in Orbit Grey and M-specific tyres (front: 275/40 R Nineteen, rear: 285/40 R Nineteen). 20-inch items can be specified as an option (front: 275/35 R twenty tyres on 9.Five x twenty rims, rear: 285/35 R twenty tyres on Ten.Five x twenty rims). Standard specification for the fresh BMW M5 also features Merino leather and M seats with electrified adjustment. The options list includes freshly developed M multifunction seats, which stand out with their bucket-seat-style construction and even better lateral support.

The fresh BMW M5 can be ordered from September 2017, priced at €117,900, and deliveries will begin in spring 2018. Scheduled for launch on the same sales begin date as the standard M5 is the BMW M5 Very first Edition. This special-edition version – limited to a run of four hundred examples worldwide – has BMW Individual Frozen Dark Crimson Metallic paintwork, is exclusively appointed and costs an extra €19,500 over the standard model.

For track use, the eight-speed M Steptronic unit serves up lightning-fast shift times, helping to give the fresh BMW M5 its exceptional agility and dynamic flair.

The suspension of the fresh BMW M5 is likewise designed to produce both maximum traction for everyday use and supreme dynamic spectacle on the track. Like the engine, transmission and M xDrive system, it has been tuned by experts and racing drivers at venues including the world’s most exacting test facility – the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit. Sophisticated stiffening elements in the front and rear structures ensure the assets structure is utterly rigid and therefore that the car provides instantaneous feedback, in particular when the driver is pushing hard on the road or track.

The driver can also choose from Convenience, Sport and Sport Plus modes for the Variable Damper Control (VDC) system – which has M-specific tuning – and the M Servotronic steering. And the engine’s characteristics can also be configured to the driver’s tastes via the Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus modes. The two M1 and M2 buttons on the M leather steering wheel can be used to store two set-ups combining the driver’s preference of engine, transmission, suspension and M xDrive modes, the DSC mode and Head-Up-Display settings. The driver can then activate their preferred set-up by pressing the relevant button.

The fresh BMW M5 includes revisions to its bodywork over the regular BMW five Series to please its challenging dynamic brief. The M engineers have redesigned the broader front side panels and front bumper trim to include larger apertures for the air feeding the cooling systems and brakes. Also fresh is the rear diffuser. The harass system’s quartet of tailpipes are a visual pointer to the power generated by the BMW M5 and also lay on a suitably sporting soundtrack for the job in mitt, courtesy of their flap control system. The driver can use a button to adjust the engine sound as desired.

The bonnet, which also has an M-specific design, is made from aluminium and boasts eye-catching sculpture lines. These extend into the enormously lightweight carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof – a standard feature of the fresh M5. The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston stationary callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

The fresh BMW M5 comes as standard with polished 19-inch light-alloy wheels (front: 9.Five x Nineteen, rear: Ten.Five x Nineteen) in Orbit Grey and M-specific tyres (front: 275/40 R Nineteen, rear: 285/40 R Nineteen). 20-inch items can be specified as an option (front: 275/35 R twenty tyres on 9.Five x twenty rims, rear: 285/35 R twenty tyres on Ten.Five x twenty rims). Standard specification for the fresh BMW M5 also features Merino leather and M seats with electrical adjustment. The options list includes freshly developed M multifunction seats, which stand out with their bucket-seat-style construction and even better lateral support.

The fresh BMW M5 can be ordered from September 2017, priced at €117,900, and deliveries will begin in spring 2018. Scheduled for launch on the same sales begin date as the standard M5 is the BMW M5 Very first Edition. This special-edition version – limited to a run of four hundred examples worldwide – has BMW Individual Frozen Dark Crimson Metallic paintwork, is exclusively appointed and costs an extra €19,500 over the standard model.

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5 (fuel consumption combined: Ten.Five l/100 km [26.9 mpg imp]*; CO2 emissions combined: two hundred forty one g/km*) takes BMW M GmbH into fresh territory, with M xDrive all-wheel drive featuring in the high-performance sedan for the very first time. This switch of tack sees the M5 exploring fresh dynamic dimensions and suggesting greater everyday practicality in all driving conditions. The fresh car is committed to building on the tradition of a concept – the luxurious four-door business sedan with a taste for the race track – very first glimpsed in one thousand nine hundred eighty four with the original BMW M5.

The fresh M xDrive developed by BMW M GmbH is the most emotionally engaging all-wheel-drive system yet to grace the high-performance segment. It works with a central transfer case with multi-plate clutch and distributes drive fully variably inbetween the front and rear axle, as required. Another ingredient in the car’s supreme traction in all road and weather conditions is the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which also works fully variably and has a locking effect inbetween zero and one hundred per cent.

The character of M xDrive can be adjusted as desired. The driver has five different configurations to choose from based on combinations of the DSC modes (DSC on, MDM, DSC off) and M xDrive modes (4WD, 4WD Sport, 2WD). In the basic setting with DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) activated and 4WD, the system permits slight slip through the rear wheels when accelerating out of corners – and therefore plays its part in providing the fresh BMW M5 its sporting agility. In M Dynamic mode (MDM, 4WD Sport) M xDrive permits lightly managed drifts. The three M xDrive modes with DSC switched off have been conceived to sate the appetites of keen drivers and primarily for use on the track. Here, the driver can choose from three configurations up to and including unspoiled rear-wheel drive (2WD). This mode permits the driver to pick their own drift angle and treats connoisseurs to driving dynamics in their purest form.

Providing ample power for the fresh BMW M5 is a Four.4-litre V8 bi-turbo engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. The M engineers have carried out significant revisions to the outgoing model’s power unit. For example, freshly developed turbochargers, ultra-efficient indirect charge air cooling and enlargened fuel injection pressure together help to raise output and, above all, torque. The engine develops four hundred forty one kW/600 hp at Five,600 – 6,700 rpm, while a monumental seven hundred fifty Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque is placed at the driver’s disposition from as low down as 1,800 rpm and remains there until Five,600 rpm. A map-controlled, fully variable oil pump ensures oil is supplied as and when the fresh BMW M5 needs it, even on the track. The car’s epic spectacle figures speak for themselves: zero to one hundred km/h (62 mph) in just Three.Four seconds, zero to two hundred km/h in 11.1 seconds (124 mph). Top speed, meantime, is an electronically limited two hundred fifty km/h (155 mph), but the optional M Driver’s Package can keep the joy coming to three hundred five km/h (189 mph).

The fresh BMW M5 channels all that power through a specially tuned eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic. In D mode it provides all the convenience and convenience of fully automatic gear switches, but can then also switch to sequential manual shifts. The driver can do this using either the compact selector lever on the centre console or the steering wheel-mounted paddles. Drivelogic permits the driver to adjust the transmission’s characteristics to their private preferences.

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5 (fuel consumption combined: Ten.Five l/100 km [26.9 mpg imp]*; CO2 emissions combined: two hundred forty one g/km*) takes BMW M GmbH into fresh territory, with M xDrive all-wheel drive featuring in the high-performance sedan for the very first time. This switch of tack sees the M5 exploring fresh dynamic dimensions and suggesting greater everyday practicality in all driving conditions. The fresh car is committed to building on the tradition of a concept – the luxurious four-door business sedan with a taste for the race track – very first glimpsed in one thousand nine hundred eighty four with the original BMW M5.

The fresh M xDrive developed by BMW M GmbH is the most emotionally engaging all-wheel-drive system yet to grace the high-performance segment. It works with a central transfer case with multi-plate clutch and distributes drive fully variably inbetween the front and rear axle, as required. Another ingredient in the car’s supreme traction in all road and weather conditions is the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which also works fully variably and has a locking effect inbetween zero and one hundred per cent.

The character of M xDrive can be adjusted as desired. The driver has five different configurations to choose from based on combinations of the DSC modes (DSC on, MDM, DSC off) and M xDrive modes (4WD, 4WD Sport, 2WD). In the basic setting with DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) activated and 4WD, the system permits slight slip through the rear wheels when accelerating out of corners – and therefore plays its part in providing the fresh BMW M5 its sporting agility. In M Dynamic mode (MDM, 4WD Sport) M xDrive permits lightly managed drifts. The three M xDrive modes with DSC switched off have been conceived to sate the appetites of keen drivers and primarily for use on the track. Here, the driver can choose from three configurations up to and including unspoiled rear-wheel drive (2WD). This mode permits the driver to pick their own drift angle and treats connoisseurs to driving dynamics in their purest form.

Providing ample power for the fresh BMW M5 is a Four.4-litre V8 bi-turbo engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. The M engineers have carried out significant revisions to the outgoing model’s power unit. For example, freshly developed turbochargers, ultra-efficient indirect charge air cooling and enlargened fuel injection pressure together help to raise output and, above all, torque. The engine develops four hundred forty one kW/600 hp at Five,600 – 6,700 rpm, while a monumental seven hundred fifty Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque is placed at the driver’s disposition from as low down as 1,800 rpm and remains there until Five,600 rpm. A map-controlled, fully variable oil pump ensures oil is supplied as and when the fresh BMW M5 needs it, even on the track. The car’s astounding spectacle figures speak for themselves: zero to one hundred km/h (62 mph) in just Three.Four seconds, zero to two hundred km/h in 11.1 seconds (124 mph). Top speed, meantime, is an electronically limited two hundred fifty km/h (155 mph), but the optional M Driver’s Package can keep the joy coming to three hundred five km/h (189 mph).

The fresh BMW M5 channels all that power through a specially tuned eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic. In D mode it provides all the convenience and convenience of fully automatic gear switches, but can then also switch to sequential manual shifts. The driver can do this using either the compact selector lever on the centre console or the steering wheel-mounted paddles. Drivelogic permits the driver to adjust the transmission’s characteristics to their individual preferences. For track use, the eight-speed M Steptronic unit serves up lightning-fast shift times, helping to give the fresh BMW M5 its exceptional agility and dynamic flair.

The suspension of the fresh BMW M5 is likewise designed to supply both maximum traction for everyday use and supreme dynamic spectacle on the track. Like the engine, transmission and M xDrive system, it has been tuned by experts and racing drivers at venues including the world’s most exacting test facility – the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit. Sophisticated stiffening elements in the front and rear structures ensure the assets structure is utterly rigid and therefore that the car provides instantaneous feedback, in particular when the driver is pushing hard on the road or track.

The driver can also choose from Convenience, Sport and Sport Plus modes for the Variable Damper Control (VDC) system – which has M-specific tuning – and the M Servotronic steering. And the engine’s characteristics can also be configured to the driver’s tastes via the Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus modes. The two M1 and M2 buttons on the M leather steering wheel can be used to store two set-ups combining the driver’s preference of engine, transmission, suspension and M xDrive modes, the DSC mode and Head-Up-Display settings. The driver can then activate their preferred set-up by pressing the relevant button.

The fresh BMW M5 includes revisions to its bodywork over the regular BMW five Series to please its challenging dynamic brief. The M engineers have redesigned the broader front side panels and front bumper trim to include larger apertures for the air feeding the cooling systems and brakes. Also fresh is the rear diffuser. The harass system’s quartet of tailpipes are a visual pointer to the power generated by the BMW M5 and also lay on a suitably sporting soundtrack for the job in forearm, courtesy of their flap control system. The driver can use a button to adjust the engine sound as desired.

The bonnet, which also has an M-specific design, is made from aluminium and boasts eye-catching sculpture lines. These extend into the enormously lightweight carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof – a standard feature of the fresh M5. The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston motionless callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

The fresh BMW M5 comes as standard with polished 19-inch light-alloy wheels (front: 9.Five x Nineteen, rear: Ten.Five x Nineteen) in Orbit Grey and M-specific tyres (front: 275/40 R Nineteen, rear: 285/40 R Nineteen). 20-inch items can be specified as an option (front: 275/35 R twenty tyres on 9.Five x twenty rims, rear: 285/35 R twenty tyres on Ten.Five x twenty rims). Standard specification for the fresh BMW M5 also features Merino leather and M seats with electrical adjustment. The options list includes freshly developed M multifunction seats, which stand out with their bucket-seat-style construction and even better lateral support.

Top speed, meantime, is an electronically limited two hundred fifty km/h (155 mph), but the optional M Driver’s Package can keep the joy coming to three hundred five km/h (189 mph).

The fresh BMW M5 channels all that power through a specially tuned eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic. In D mode it provides all the convenience and convenience of fully automatic gear switches, but can then also switch to sequential manual shifts. The driver can do this using either the compact selector lever on the centre console or the steering wheel-mounted paddles. Drivelogic permits the driver to adjust the transmission’s characteristics to their individual preferences. For track use, the eight-speed M Steptronic unit serves up lightning-fast shift times, helping to give the fresh BMW M5 its exceptional agility and dynamic flair.

The suspension of the fresh BMW M5 is likewise designed to produce both maximum traction for everyday use and supreme dynamic spectacle on the track. Like the engine, transmission and M xDrive system, it has been tuned by experts and racing drivers at venues including the world’s most exacting test facility – the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit. Sophisticated stiffening elements in the front and rear structures ensure the assets structure is enormously rigid and therefore that the car provides instantaneous feedback, in particular when the driver is pushing hard on the road or track.

The driver can also choose from Convenience, Sport and Sport Plus modes for the Variable Damper Control (VDC) system – which has M-specific tuning – and the M Servotronic steering. And the engine’s characteristics can also be configured to the driver’s tastes via the Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus modes. The two M1 and M2 buttons on the M leather steering wheel can be used to store two set-ups combining the driver’s preference of engine, transmission, suspension and M xDrive modes, the DSC mode and Head-Up-Display settings. The driver can then activate their preferred set-up by pressing the relevant button.

The fresh BMW M5 includes revisions to its bodywork over the regular BMW five Series to sate its challenging dynamic brief. The M engineers have redesigned the broader front side panels and front bumper trim to include larger apertures for the air feeding the cooling systems and brakes. Also fresh is the rear diffuser. The harass system’s quartet of tailpipes are a visual pointer to the power generated by the BMW M5 and also lay on a suitably sporting soundtrack for the job in mitt, courtesy of their flap control system. The driver can use a button to adjust the engine sound as desired.

The bonnet, which also has an M-specific design, is made from aluminium and boasts eye-catching sculpture lines. These extend into the enormously lightweight carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof – a standard feature of the fresh M5. The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston motionless callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

The fresh BMW M5 comes as standard with polished 19-inch light-alloy wheels (front: 9.Five x Nineteen, rear: Ten.Five x Nineteen) in Orbit Grey and M-specific tyres (front: 275/40 R Nineteen, rear: 285/40 R Nineteen). 20-inch items can be specified as an option (front: 275/35 R twenty tyres on 9.Five x twenty rims, rear: 285/35 R twenty tyres on Ten.Five x twenty rims). Standard specification for the fresh BMW M5 also features Merino leather and M seats with electrical adjustment. The options list includes freshly developed M multifunction seats, which stand out with their bucket-seat-style construction and even better lateral support.

The fresh BMW M5 can be ordered from September 2017, priced at €117,900, and deliveries will begin in spring 2018. Scheduled for launch on the same sales commence date as the standard M5 is the BMW M5 Very first Edition. This special-edition version – limited to a run of four hundred examples worldwide – has BMW Individual Frozen Dark Crimson Metallic paintwork, is exclusively appointed and costs an extra €19,500 over the standard model.

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5 (fuel consumption combined: Ten.Five l/100 km [26.9 mpg imp]*; CO2 emissions combined: two hundred forty one g/km*) takes BMW M GmbH into fresh territory, with M xDrive all-wheel drive featuring in the high-performance sedan for the very first time. This switch of tack sees the M5 exploring fresh dynamic dimensions and suggesting greater everyday practicality in all driving conditions. The fresh car is committed to building on the tradition of a concept – the luxurious four-door business sedan with a taste for the race track – very first glimpsed in one thousand nine hundred eighty four with the original BMW M5.

The fresh M xDrive developed by BMW M GmbH is the most emotionally engaging all-wheel-drive system yet to grace the high-performance segment. It works with a central transfer case with multi-plate clutch and distributes drive fully variably inbetween the front and rear axle, as required. Another ingredient in the car’s supreme traction in all road and weather conditions is the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which also works fully variably and has a locking effect inbetween zero and one hundred per cent.

The character of M xDrive can be adjusted as desired. The driver has five different configurations to choose from based on combinations of the DSC modes (DSC on, MDM, DSC off) and M xDrive modes (4WD, 4WD Sport, 2WD). In the basic setting with DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) activated and 4WD, the system permits slight slip through the rear wheels when accelerating out of corners – and therefore plays its part in providing the fresh BMW M5 its sporting agility. In M Dynamic mode (MDM, 4WD Sport) M xDrive permits lightly managed drifts. The three M xDrive modes with DSC switched off have been conceived to sate the appetites of keen drivers and primarily for use on the track. Here, the driver can choose from three configurations up to and including unspoiled rear-wheel drive (2WD). This mode permits the driver to pick their own drift angle and treats connoisseurs to driving dynamics in their purest form.

Providing ample power for the fresh BMW M5 is a Four.4-litre V8 bi-turbo engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. The M engineers have carried out significant revisions to the outgoing model’s power unit. For example, freshly developed turbochargers, ultra-efficient indirect charge air cooling and enlargened fuel injection pressure together help to raise output and, above all, torque. The engine develops four hundred forty one kW/600 hp at Five,600 – 6,700 rpm, while a monumental seven hundred fifty Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque is placed at the driver’s disposition from as low down as 1,800 rpm and remains there until Five,600 rpm.

The fresh BMW M5 comes as standard with polished 19-inch light-alloy wheels (front: 9.Five x Nineteen, rear: Ten.Five x Nineteen) in Orbit Grey and M-specific tyres (front: 275/40 R Nineteen, rear: 285/40 R Nineteen). 20-inch items can be specified as an option (front: 275/35 R twenty tyres on 9.Five x twenty rims, rear: 285/35 R twenty tyres on Ten.Five x twenty rims). Standard specification for the fresh BMW M5 also features Merino leather and M seats with electrified adjustment. The options list includes freshly developed M multifunction seats, which stand out with their bucket-seat-style construction and even better lateral support.

The fresh BMW M5 can be ordered from September 2017, priced at €117,900, and deliveries will begin in spring 2018. Scheduled for launch on the same sales begin date as the standard M5 is the BMW M5 Very first Edition. This special-edition version – limited to a run of four hundred examples worldwide – has BMW Individual Frozen Dark Crimson Metallic paintwork, is exclusively appointed and costs an extra €19,500 over the standard model.

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5 (fuel consumption combined: Ten.Five l/100 km [26.9 mpg imp]*; CO2 emissions combined: two hundred forty one g/km*) takes BMW M GmbH into fresh territory, with M xDrive all-wheel drive featuring in the high-performance sedan for the very first time. This switch of tack sees the M5 exploring fresh dynamic dimensions and suggesting greater everyday practicality in all driving conditions. The fresh car is committed to building on the tradition of a concept – the luxurious four-door business sedan with a taste for the race track – very first glimpsed in one thousand nine hundred eighty four with the original BMW M5.

The fresh M xDrive developed by BMW M GmbH is the most emotionally engaging all-wheel-drive system yet to grace the high-performance segment. It works with a central transfer case with multi-plate clutch and distributes drive fully variably inbetween the front and rear axle, as required. Another ingredient in the car’s supreme traction in all road and weather conditions is the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which also works fully variably and has a locking effect inbetween zero and one hundred per cent.

The character of M xDrive can be adjusted as desired. The driver has five different configurations to choose from based on combinations of the DSC modes (DSC on, MDM, DSC off) and M xDrive modes (4WD, 4WD Sport, 2WD). In the basic setting with DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) activated and 4WD, the system permits slight slip through the rear wheels when accelerating out of corners – and therefore plays its part in providing the fresh BMW M5 its sporting agility. In M Dynamic mode (MDM, 4WD Sport) M xDrive permits lightly managed drifts. The three M xDrive modes with DSC switched off have been conceived to sate the appetites of keen drivers and primarily for use on the track. Here, the driver can choose from three configurations up to and including unspoiled rear-wheel drive (2WD). This mode permits the driver to pick their own drift angle and treats connoisseurs to driving dynamics in their purest form.

Providing ample power for the fresh BMW M5 is a Four.4-litre V8 bi-turbo engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. The M engineers have carried out significant revisions to the outgoing model’s power unit. For example, freshly developed turbochargers, ultra-efficient indirect charge air cooling and enlargened fuel injection pressure together help to raise output and, above all, torque. The engine develops four hundred forty one kW/600 hp at Five,600 – 6,700 rpm, while a monumental seven hundred fifty Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque is placed at the driver’s disposition from as low down as 1,800 rpm and remains there until Five,600 rpm. A map-controlled, fully variable oil pump ensures oil is supplied as and when the fresh BMW M5 needs it, even on the track. The car’s exceptional spectacle figures speak for themselves: zero to one hundred km/h (62 mph) in just Three.Four seconds, zero to two hundred km/h in 11.1 seconds (124 mph). Top speed, meantime, is an electronically limited two hundred fifty km/h (155 mph), but the optional M Driver’s Package can keep the joy coming to three hundred five km/h (189 mph).

The fresh BMW M5 channels all that power through a specially tuned eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic. In D mode it provides all the convenience and convenience of fully automatic gear switches, but can then also switch to sequential manual shifts. The driver can do this using either the compact selector lever on the centre console or the steering wheel-mounted paddles. Drivelogic permits the driver to adjust the transmission’s characteristics to their private preferences. For track use, the eight-speed M Steptronic unit serves up lightning-fast shift times, helping to give the fresh BMW M5 its exceptional agility and dynamic flair.

The suspension of the fresh BMW M5 is likewise designed to supply both maximum traction for everyday use and supreme dynamic spectacle on the track. Like the engine, transmission and M xDrive system, it has been tuned by experts and racing drivers at venues including the world’s most exacting test facility – the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit. Sophisticated stiffening elements in the front and rear structures ensure the assets structure is enormously rigid and therefore that the car provides instantaneous feedback, in particular when the driver is pushing hard on the road or track.

The driver can also choose from Convenience, Sport and Sport Plus modes for the Variable Damper Control (VDC) system – which has M-specific tuning – and the M Servotronic steering. And the engine’s characteristics can also be configured to the driver’s tastes via the Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus modes. The two M1 and M2 buttons on the M leather steering wheel can be used to store two set-ups combining the driver’s preference of engine, transmission, suspension and M xDrive modes, the DSC mode and Head-Up-Display settings. The driver can then activate their preferred set-up by pressing the relevant button.

The fresh BMW M5 includes revisions to its bodywork over the regular BMW five Series to sate its challenging dynamic brief. The M engineers have redesigned the broader front side panels and front bumper trim to include larger apertures for the air feeding the cooling systems and brakes. Also fresh is the rear diffuser. The harass system’s quartet of tailpipes are a visual pointer to the power generated by the BMW M5 and also lay on a suitably sporting soundtrack for the job in palm, courtesy of their flap control system. The driver can use a button to adjust the engine sound as desired.

The bonnet, which also has an M-specific design, is made from aluminium and boasts eye-catching sculpture lines. These extend into the enormously lightweight carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof – a standard feature of the fresh M5. The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston immovable callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

The M engineers have carried out significant revisions to the outgoing model’s power unit. For example, freshly developed turbochargers, ultra-efficient indirect charge air cooling and enlargened fuel injection pressure together help to raise output and, above all, torque. The engine develops four hundred forty one kW/600 hp at Five,600 – 6,700 rpm, while a monumental seven hundred fifty Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque is placed at the driver’s disposition from as low down as 1,800 rpm and remains there until Five,600 rpm. A map-controlled, fully variable oil pump ensures oil is supplied as and when the fresh BMW M5 needs it, even on the track. The car’s astounding spectacle figures speak for themselves: zero to one hundred km/h (62 mph) in just Three.Four seconds, zero to two hundred km/h in 11.1 seconds (124 mph). Top speed, meantime, is an electronically limited two hundred fifty km/h (155 mph), but the optional M Driver’s Package can keep the joy coming to three hundred five km/h (189 mph).

The fresh BMW M5 channels all that power through a specially tuned eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic. In D mode it provides all the convenience and convenience of fully automatic gear switches, but can then also switch to sequential manual shifts. The driver can do this using either the compact selector lever on the centre console or the steering wheel-mounted paddles. Drivelogic permits the driver to adjust the transmission’s characteristics to their individual preferences. For track use, the eight-speed M Steptronic unit serves up lightning-fast shift times, helping to give the fresh BMW M5 its exceptional agility and dynamic flair.

The suspension of the fresh BMW M5 is likewise designed to produce both maximum traction for everyday use and supreme dynamic spectacle on the track. Like the engine, transmission and M xDrive system, it has been tuned by experts and racing drivers at venues including the world’s most exacting test facility – the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit. Sophisticated stiffening elements in the front and rear structures ensure the assets structure is enormously rigid and therefore that the car provides instantaneous feedback, in particular when the driver is pushing hard on the road or track.

The driver can also choose from Convenience, Sport and Sport Plus modes for the Variable Damper Control (VDC) system – which has M-specific tuning – and the M Servotronic steering. And the engine’s characteristics can also be configured to the driver’s tastes via the Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus modes. The two M1 and M2 buttons on the M leather steering wheel can be used to store two set-ups combining the driver’s preference of engine, transmission, suspension and M xDrive modes, the DSC mode and Head-Up-Display settings. The driver can then activate their preferred set-up by pressing the relevant button.

The fresh BMW M5 includes revisions to its bodywork over the regular BMW five Series to sate its challenging dynamic brief. The M engineers have redesigned the broader front side panels and front bumper trim to include larger apertures for the air feeding the cooling systems and brakes. Also fresh is the rear diffuser. The harass system’s quartet of tailpipes are a visual pointer to the power generated by the BMW M5 and also lay on a suitably sporting soundtrack for the job in arm, courtesy of their flap control system. The driver can use a button to adjust the engine sound as desired.

The bonnet, which also has an M-specific design, is made from aluminium and boasts eye-catching sculpture lines. These extend into the enormously lightweight carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof – a standard feature of the fresh M5. The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston immobilized callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

The fresh BMW M5 comes as standard with polished 19-inch light-alloy wheels (front: 9.Five x Nineteen, rear: Ten.Five x Nineteen) in Orbit Grey and M-specific tyres (front: 275/40 R Nineteen, rear: 285/40 R Nineteen). 20-inch items can be specified as an option (front: 275/35 R twenty tyres on 9.Five x twenty rims, rear: 285/35 R twenty tyres on Ten.Five x twenty rims). Standard specification for the fresh BMW M5 also features Merino leather and M seats with electrical adjustment. The options list includes freshly developed M multifunction seats, which stand out with their bucket-seat-style construction and even better lateral support.

The fresh BMW M5 can be ordered from September 2017, priced at €117,900, and deliveries will begin in spring 2018. Scheduled for launch on the same sales begin date as the standard M5 is the BMW M5 Very first Edition. This special-edition version – limited to a run of four hundred examples worldwide – has BMW Individual Frozen Dark Crimson Metallic paintwork, is exclusively appointed and costs an extra €19,500 over the standard model.

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5 (fuel consumption combined: Ten.Five l/100 km [26.9 mpg imp]*; CO2 emissions combined: two hundred forty one g/km*) takes BMW M GmbH into fresh territory, with M xDrive all-wheel drive featuring in the high-performance sedan for the very first time. This switch of tack sees the M5 exploring fresh dynamic dimensions and suggesting greater everyday practicality in all driving conditions. The fresh car is committed to building on the tradition of a concept – the luxurious four-door business sedan with a taste for the race track – very first glimpsed in one thousand nine hundred eighty four with the original BMW M5.

The fresh M xDrive developed by BMW M GmbH is the most emotionally engaging all-wheel-drive system yet to grace the high-performance segment. It works with a central transfer case with multi-plate clutch and distributes drive fully variably inbetween the front and rear axle, as required. Another ingredient in the car’s supreme traction in all road and weather conditions is the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which also works fully variably and has a locking effect inbetween zero and one hundred per cent.

The character of M xDrive can be adjusted as desired. The driver has five different configurations to choose from based on combinations of the DSC modes (DSC on, MDM, DSC off) and M xDrive modes (4WD, 4WD Sport, 2WD). In the basic setting with DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) activated and 4WD, the system permits slight slip through the rear wheels when accelerating out of corners – and therefore plays its part in providing the fresh BMW M5 its sporting agility. In M Dynamic mode (MDM, 4WD Sport) M xDrive permits lightly managed drifts. The three M xDrive modes with DSC switched off have been conceived to sate the appetites of keen drivers and primarily for use on the track. Here, the driver can choose from three configurations up to and including unspoiled rear-wheel drive (2WD). This mode permits the driver to pick their own drift angle and treats connoisseurs to driving dynamics in their purest form.

The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston immobile callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

The fresh BMW M5 comes as standard with polished 19-inch light-alloy wheels (front: 9.Five x Nineteen, rear: Ten.Five x Nineteen) in Orbit Grey and M-specific tyres (front: 275/40 R Nineteen, rear: 285/40 R Nineteen). 20-inch items can be specified as an option (front: 275/35 R twenty tyres on 9.Five x twenty rims, rear: 285/35 R twenty tyres on Ten.Five x twenty rims). Standard specification for the fresh BMW M5 also features Merino leather and M seats with electrified adjustment. The options list includes freshly developed M multifunction seats, which stand out with their bucket-seat-style construction and even better lateral support.

The fresh BMW M5 can be ordered from September 2017, priced at €117,900, and deliveries will begin in spring 2018. Scheduled for launch on the same sales commence date as the standard M5 is the BMW M5 Very first Edition. This special-edition version – limited to a run of four hundred examples worldwide – has BMW Individual Frozen Dark Crimson Metallic paintwork, is exclusively appointed and costs an extra €19,500 over the standard model.

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5 (fuel consumption combined: Ten.Five l/100 km [26.9 mpg imp]*; CO2 emissions combined: two hundred forty one g/km*) takes BMW M GmbH into fresh territory, with M xDrive all-wheel drive featuring in the high-performance sedan for the very first time. This switch of tack sees the M5 exploring fresh dynamic dimensions and suggesting greater everyday practicality in all driving conditions. The fresh car is committed to building on the tradition of a concept – the luxurious four-door business sedan with a taste for the race track – very first glimpsed in one thousand nine hundred eighty four with the original BMW M5.

The fresh M xDrive developed by BMW M GmbH is the most emotionally engaging all-wheel-drive system yet to grace the high-performance segment. It works with a central transfer case with multi-plate clutch and distributes drive fully variably inbetween the front and rear axle, as required. Another ingredient in the car’s supreme traction in all road and weather conditions is the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which also works fully variably and has a locking effect inbetween zero and one hundred per cent.

The character of M xDrive can be adjusted as desired. The driver has five different configurations to choose from based on combinations of the DSC modes (DSC on, MDM, DSC off) and M xDrive modes (4WD, 4WD Sport, 2WD). In the basic setting with DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) activated and 4WD, the system permits slight slip through the rear wheels when accelerating out of corners – and therefore plays its part in providing the fresh BMW M5 its sporting agility. In M Dynamic mode (MDM, 4WD Sport) M xDrive permits lightly managed drifts. The three M xDrive modes with DSC switched off have been conceived to sate the appetites of keen drivers and primarily for use on the track. Here, the driver can choose from three configurations up to and including unspoiled rear-wheel drive (2WD). This mode permits the driver to pick their own drift angle and treats connoisseurs to driving dynamics in their purest form.

Providing ample power for the fresh BMW M5 is a Four.4-litre V8 bi-turbo engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. The M engineers have carried out significant revisions to the outgoing model’s power unit. For example, freshly developed turbochargers, ultra-efficient indirect charge air cooling and enhanced fuel injection pressure together help to raise output and, above all, torque. The engine develops four hundred forty one kW/600 hp at Five,600 – 6,700 rpm, while a monumental seven hundred fifty Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque is placed at the driver’s disposition from as low down as 1,800 rpm and remains there until Five,600 rpm. A map-controlled, fully variable oil pump ensures oil is supplied as and when the fresh BMW M5 needs it, even on the track. The car’s outstanding spectacle figures speak for themselves: zero to one hundred km/h (62 mph) in just Trio.Four seconds, zero to two hundred km/h in 11.1 seconds (124 mph). Top speed, meantime, is an electronically limited two hundred fifty km/h (155 mph), but the optional M Driver’s Package can keep the joy coming to three hundred five km/h (189 mph).

The fresh BMW M5 channels all that power through a specially tuned eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic. In D mode it provides all the convenience and convenience of fully automatic gear switches, but can then also switch to sequential manual shifts. The driver can do this using either the compact selector lever on the centre console or the steering wheel-mounted paddles. Drivelogic permits the driver to adjust the transmission’s characteristics to their private preferences. For track use, the eight-speed M Steptronic unit serves up lightning-fast shift times, helping to give the fresh BMW M5 its exceptional agility and dynamic flair.

The suspension of the fresh BMW M5 is likewise designed to produce both maximum traction for everyday use and supreme dynamic spectacle on the track. Like the engine, transmission and M xDrive system, it has been tuned by experts and racing drivers at venues including the world’s most exacting test facility – the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit. Sophisticated stiffening elements in the front and rear structures ensure the bod structure is enormously rigid and therefore that the car provides instantaneous feedback, in particular when the driver is pushing hard on the road or track.

The driver can also choose from Convenience, Sport and Sport Plus modes for the Variable Damper Control (VDC) system – which has M-specific tuning – and the M Servotronic steering. And the engine’s characteristics can also be configured to the driver’s tastes via the Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus modes. The two M1 and M2 buttons on the M leather steering wheel can be used to store two set-ups combining the driver’s preference of engine, transmission, suspension and M xDrive modes, the DSC mode and Head-Up-Display settings. The driver can then activate their preferred set-up by pressing the relevant button.

The fresh BMW M5 includes revisions to its bodywork over the regular BMW five Series to please its challenging dynamic brief. The M engineers have redesigned the broader front side panels and front bumper trim to include larger apertures for the air feeding the cooling systems and brakes. Also fresh is the rear diffuser. The harass system’s quartet of tailpipes are a visual pointer to the power generated by the BMW M5 and also lay on a suitably sporting soundtrack for the job in mitt, courtesy of their flap control system. The driver can use a button to adjust the engine sound as desired.

The bonnet, which also has an M-specific design, is made from aluminium and boasts eye-catching sculpture lines. These extend into the enormously lightweight carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof – a standard feature of the fresh M5. The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston stationary callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

In M Dynamic mode (MDM, 4WD Sport) M xDrive permits lightly managed drifts. The three M xDrive modes with DSC switched off have been conceived to sate the appetites of keen drivers and primarily for use on the track. Here, the driver can choose from three configurations up to and including unspoiled rear-wheel drive (2WD). This mode permits the driver to pick their own drift angle and treats connoisseurs to driving dynamics in their purest form.

Providing ample power for the fresh BMW M5 is a Four.4-litre V8 bi-turbo engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. The M engineers have carried out significant revisions to the outgoing model’s power unit. For example, freshly developed turbochargers, ultra-efficient indirect charge air cooling and enlargened fuel injection pressure together help to raise output and, above all, torque. The engine develops four hundred forty one kW/600 hp at Five,600 – 6,700 rpm, while a monumental seven hundred fifty Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque is placed at the driver’s disposition from as low down as 1,800 rpm and remains there until Five,600 rpm. A map-controlled, fully variable oil pump ensures oil is supplied as and when the fresh BMW M5 needs it, even on the track. The car’s incredible spectacle figures speak for themselves: zero to one hundred km/h (62 mph) in just Trio.Four seconds, zero to two hundred km/h in 11.1 seconds (124 mph). Top speed, meantime, is an electronically limited two hundred fifty km/h (155 mph), but the optional M Driver’s Package can keep the joy coming to three hundred five km/h (189 mph).

The fresh BMW M5 channels all that power through a specially tuned eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic. In D mode it provides all the convenience and convenience of fully automatic gear switches, but can then also switch to sequential manual shifts. The driver can do this using either the compact selector lever on the centre console or the steering wheel-mounted paddles. Drivelogic permits the driver to adjust the transmission’s characteristics to their private preferences. For track use, the eight-speed M Steptronic unit serves up lightning-fast shift times, helping to give the fresh BMW M5 its exceptional agility and dynamic flair.

The suspension of the fresh BMW M5 is likewise designed to supply both maximum traction for everyday use and supreme dynamic spectacle on the track. Like the engine, transmission and M xDrive system, it has been tuned by experts and racing drivers at venues including the world’s most exacting test facility – the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit. Sophisticated stiffening elements in the front and rear structures ensure the assets structure is enormously rigid and therefore that the car provides instantaneous feedback, in particular when the driver is pushing hard on the road or track.

The driver can also choose from Convenience, Sport and Sport Plus modes for the Variable Damper Control (VDC) system – which has M-specific tuning – and the M Servotronic steering. And the engine’s characteristics can also be configured to the driver’s tastes via the Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus modes. The two M1 and M2 buttons on the M leather steering wheel can be used to store two set-ups combining the driver’s preference of engine, transmission, suspension and M xDrive modes, the DSC mode and Head-Up-Display settings. The driver can then activate their preferred set-up by pressing the relevant button.

The fresh BMW M5 includes revisions to its bodywork over the regular BMW five Series to please its challenging dynamic brief. The M engineers have redesigned the broader front side panels and front bumper trim to include larger apertures for the air feeding the cooling systems and brakes. Also fresh is the rear diffuser. The harass system’s quartet of tailpipes are a visual pointer to the power generated by the BMW M5 and also lay on a suitably sporting soundtrack for the job in mitt, courtesy of their flap control system. The driver can use a button to adjust the engine sound as desired.

The bonnet, which also has an M-specific design, is made from aluminium and boasts eye-catching sculpture lines. These extend into the enormously lightweight carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof – a standard feature of the fresh M5. The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston immobile callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

The fresh BMW M5 comes as standard with polished 19-inch light-alloy wheels (front: 9.Five x Nineteen, rear: Ten.Five x Nineteen) in Orbit Grey and M-specific tyres (front: 275/40 R Nineteen, rear: 285/40 R Nineteen). 20-inch items can be specified as an option (front: 275/35 R twenty tyres on 9.Five x twenty rims, rear: 285/35 R twenty tyres on Ten.Five x twenty rims). Standard specification for the fresh BMW M5 also features Merino leather and M seats with electrical adjustment. The options list includes freshly developed M multifunction seats, which stand out with their bucket-seat-style construction and even better lateral support.

The fresh BMW M5 can be ordered from September 2017, priced at €117,900, and deliveries will begin in spring 2018. Scheduled for launch on the same sales embark date as the standard M5 is the BMW M5 Very first Edition. This special-edition version – limited to a run of four hundred examples worldwide – has BMW Individual Frozen Dark Crimson Metallic paintwork, is exclusively appointed and costs an extra €19,500 over the standard model.

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5 (fuel consumption combined: Ten.Five l/100 km [26.9 mpg imp]*; CO2 emissions combined: two hundred forty one g/km*) takes BMW M GmbH into fresh territory, with M xDrive all-wheel drive featuring in the high-performance sedan for the very first time. This switch of tack sees the M5 exploring fresh dynamic dimensions and suggesting greater everyday practicality in all driving conditions. The fresh car is committed to building on the tradition of a concept – the luxurious four-door business sedan with a taste for the race track – very first glimpsed in one thousand nine hundred eighty four with the original BMW M5.

The fresh M xDrive developed by BMW M GmbH is the most emotionally engaging all-wheel-drive system yet to grace the high-performance segment. It works with a central transfer case with multi-plate clutch and distributes drive fully variably inbetween the front and rear axle, as required. Another ingredient in the car’s supreme traction in all road and weather conditions is the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which also works fully variably and has a locking effect inbetween zero and one hundred per cent.

The character of M xDrive can be adjusted as desired. The driver has five different configurations to choose from based on combinations of the DSC modes (DSC on, MDM, DSC off) and M xDrive modes (4WD, 4WD Sport, 2WD).

The fresh BMW M5 includes revisions to its bodywork over the regular BMW five Series to please its challenging dynamic brief. The M engineers have redesigned the broader front side panels and front bumper trim to include larger apertures for the air feeding the cooling systems and brakes. Also fresh is the rear diffuser. The harass system’s quartet of tailpipes are a visual pointer to the power generated by the BMW M5 and also lay on a suitably sporting soundtrack for the job in mitt, courtesy of their flap control system. The driver can use a button to adjust the engine sound as desired.

The bonnet, which also has an M-specific design, is made from aluminium and boasts eye-catching sculpture lines. These extend into the utterly lightweight carbon fibre-reinforced plastic (CFRP) roof – a standard feature of the fresh M5. The weight savings contributed by the CFRP roof and other components such as the harass system help to ensure the fresh BMW M5 with M xDrive all-wheel drive is lighter than its predecessor.

The fresh BMW M5 is fitted as standard with M compound brakes, which are lighter than conventional grey cast metal items and therefore also bring down the car’s weight. With blue-painted six-piston motionless callipers at the front and single-piston floating callipers at the rear, plus perforated, inner-vented brake discs all round, the M compound brakes have the speed-shedding power to befit the car’s dynamic potency. The optional M carbon ceramic brakes, which can be identified by callipers painted in a gold colour and trim another twenty three kilograms off the M5’s weight, can withstand even greater penalty.

The fresh BMW M5 comes as standard with polished 19-inch light-alloy wheels (front: 9.Five x Nineteen, rear: Ten.Five x Nineteen) in Orbit Grey and M-specific tyres (front: 275/40 R Nineteen, rear: 285/40 R Nineteen). 20-inch items can be specified as an option (front: 275/35 R twenty tyres on 9.Five x twenty rims, rear: 285/35 R twenty tyres on Ten.Five x twenty rims). Standard specification for the fresh BMW M5 also features Merino leather and M seats with electrical adjustment. The options list includes freshly developed M multifunction seats, which stand out with their bucket-seat-style construction and even better lateral support.

The fresh BMW M5 can be ordered from September 2017, priced at €117,900, and deliveries will begin in spring 2018. Scheduled for launch on the same sales embark date as the standard M5 is the BMW M5 Very first Edition. This special-edition version – limited to a run of four hundred examples worldwide – has BMW Individual Frozen Dark Crimson Metallic paintwork, is exclusively appointed and costs an extra €19,500 over the standard model.

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5

The fresh BMW M5 (fuel consumption combined: Ten.Five l/100 km [26.9 mpg imp]*; CO2 emissions combined: two hundred forty one g/km*) takes BMW M GmbH into fresh territory, with M xDrive all-wheel drive featuring in the high-performance sedan for the very first time. This switch of tack sees the M5 exploring fresh dynamic dimensions and suggesting greater everyday practicality in all driving conditions. The fresh car is committed to building on the tradition of a concept – the luxurious four-door business sedan with a taste for the race track – very first glimpsed in one thousand nine hundred eighty four with the original BMW M5.

The fresh M xDrive developed by BMW M GmbH is the most emotionally engaging all-wheel-drive system yet to grace the high-performance segment. It works with a central transfer case with multi-plate clutch and distributes drive fully variably inbetween the front and rear axle, as required. Another ingredient in the car’s supreme traction in all road and weather conditions is the Active M Differential at the rear axle, which also works fully variably and has a locking effect inbetween zero and one hundred per cent.

The character of M xDrive can be adjusted as desired. The driver has five different configurations to choose from based on combinations of the DSC modes (DSC on, MDM, DSC off) and M xDrive modes (4WD, 4WD Sport, 2WD). In the basic setting with DSC (Dynamic Stability Control) activated and 4WD, the system permits slight slip through the rear wheels when accelerating out of corners – and therefore plays its part in providing the fresh BMW M5 its sporting agility. In M Dynamic mode (MDM, 4WD Sport) M xDrive permits lightly managed drifts. The three M xDrive modes with DSC switched off have been conceived to sate the appetites of keen drivers and primarily for use on the track. Here, the driver can choose from three configurations up to and including unspoiled rear-wheel drive (2WD). This mode permits the driver to pick their own drift angle and treats connoisseurs to driving dynamics in their purest form.

Providing ample power for the fresh BMW M5 is a Four.4-litre V8 bi-turbo engine with M TwinPower Turbo technology. The M engineers have carried out significant revisions to the outgoing model’s power unit. For example, freshly developed turbochargers, ultra-efficient indirect charge air cooling and enlargened fuel injection pressure together help to raise output and, above all, torque. The engine develops four hundred forty one kW/600 hp at Five,600 – 6,700 rpm, while a monumental seven hundred fifty Nm (553 lb-ft) of torque is placed at the driver’s disposition from as low down as 1,800 rpm and remains there until Five,600 rpm. A map-controlled, fully variable oil pump ensures oil is supplied as and when the fresh BMW M5 needs it, even on the track. The car’s epic spectacle figures speak for themselves: zero to one hundred km/h (62 mph) in just Trio.Four seconds, zero to two hundred km/h in 11.1 seconds (124 mph). Top speed, meantime, is an electronically limited two hundred fifty km/h (155 mph), but the optional M Driver’s Package can keep the joy coming to three hundred five km/h (189 mph).

The fresh BMW M5 channels all that power through a specially tuned eight-speed M Steptronic transmission with Drivelogic. In D mode it provides all the convenience and convenience of fully automatic gear switches, but can then also switch to sequential manual shifts. The driver can do this using either the compact selector lever on the centre console or the steering wheel-mounted paddles. Drivelogic permits the driver to adjust the transmission’s characteristics to their individual preferences. For track use, the eight-speed M Steptronic unit serves up lightning-fast shift times, helping to give the fresh BMW M5 its exceptional agility and dynamic flair.

The suspension of the fresh BMW M5 is likewise designed to supply both maximum traction for everyday use and supreme dynamic spectacle on the track. Like the engine, transmission and M xDrive system, it has been tuned by experts and racing drivers at venues including the world’s most exacting test facility – the Nürburgring Nordschleife circuit. Sophisticated stiffening elements in the front and rear structures ensure the figure structure is enormously rigid and therefore that the car provides instantaneous feedback, in particular when the driver is pushing hard on the road or track.

The driver can also choose from Convenience, Sport and Sport Plus modes for the Variable Damper Control (VDC) system – which has M-specific tuning – and the M Servotronic steering. And the engine’s characteristics can also be configured to the driver’s tastes via the Efficient, Sport and Sport Plus modes. The two M1 and M2 buttons on the M leather steering wheel can be used to store two set-ups combining the driver’s preference of engine, transmission, suspension and M xDrive modes, the DSC mode and Head-Up-Display settings. The driver can then activate their preferred set-up by pressing the relevant button.
