BMW M5 Touring: A New Era of Performance and Versatility

This model exudes a purposeful stance characterised by clean lines and bold features. The familiar Touring silhouette is enhanced with distinct M elements: large, functional air intakes, a precisely sculpted front end, and prominent wheel arches that hint at the capability within. The black roof contrasts elegantly with the body-coloured panels, creating a look that’s as sophisticated as aggressive. At the rear, the design comes together with slim tail lights, vertical reflectors, and a dynamic diffuser that houses the quad exhausts, all working together to underline the car's width and presence on the road.

Beneath its refined exterior, the M5 Touring houses BMW's M Hybrid V8 drive system – a pioneering combination of a 4.4-litre V8 engine and an electric motor. The car launches from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds. The hybrid system offers an adaptable performance that feels effortless and controlled.

The M5 Touring's versatility extends beyond its powertrain. The adaptive suspension, along with the precisely tuned all-wheel drive, ensures that the car handles with precision, whether on the open road or tackling more challenging terrains. The setup is customisable, allowing drivers to switch between modes that favour either all-wheel traction or rear-wheel dynamics, depending on the situation.

Step inside, and the vehicle continues to impress. The interior is a masterclass in blending sportiness with luxury. The cabin is designed for the driver, with every detail carefully considered – from the M-specific multifunction seats to the intuitive layout of controls within the BMW curved display. The high-quality Merino leather, ambient lighting, and the immersive sound from the Bowers & Wilkins surround sound system ensure that every drive is a pleasure.

Practicality is where the M5 Touring truly stands out. With up to 1,630 litres of cargo space, it can handle whatever your day demands. The standard comfort access and automatic tailgate make loading and unloading hassle-free, and with the optional trailer hitch, the M5 Touring proves it’s all about versatility.

With production starting soon at the BMW Group Plant in Dingolfing and a market launch in November 2024, we can rest assured that the future of high-performance touring cars is in good hands. And we surely hope to get our hands on one soon.
