2025 BMW M5 (G90)

BMW M5 Touring

BMW M GmbH gives its product offensive another injection of pace with the presentation of a high-performance model offering a unique combination of soaring performance, extrovert, sporty design and versatile interior space. The new BMW M5 Touring elevates the fusion of standout driving dynamics with consummate everyday usability and long-distance capability for which BMW M cars are renowned to a whole new level. Its M HYBRID system produces maximum output of 535 kW/727 hp and peak torque of 1,000 Nm (737 lb-ft) to deliver intoxicating performance on road and track alike. At the same time, the partly electrified powertrain enables almost silent and locally emissionfree driving with a range of up to 67 kilometres (42 mph). In addition, the distinctive vehicle concept of the new BMW M5 Touring is reflected in both its exterior design and its interior. Prominently flared wheel arches and side skirts and the M-specific design of the front and rear aprons distinguish the BMW M5 Touring clearly from the BMW 5-Series Touring. The new M5 Touring has up to 1,630 litres of flexible load-carrying capacity for leisure activities and trips away.

The addition of a Touring model to the brand's offering in the highperformance segment builds on both past and current successes. BMW M GmbH first introduced a Touring variant back in 1992 alongside the second generation of the BMW M5 Sedan. In 2007, the fourth generation of the high-performance sedan also gained a BMW M5 Touring sibling. And now the new edition ensures customers will be able to choose from two body variants of the BMW M5 for the third time in its 40-year history. The considerable excitement engendered among fans of the BMW M brand by the symbiosis of exceptional performance and extra space is evidenced by the strong current demand for the first-ever BMW M3 Competition Touring with M xDrive.

 
2025 BMW M5 Touring Is Coming To The U.S.

If you've been looking for a 700-hp station wagon that weighs 5,500 pounds, look no further than the M5 Touring.

Station wagons are awesome, but the U.S. doesn’t get many options because they don’t sell well, and automakers still need to make a profit. So when BMW announced the new M5, we just assumed the wagon version would be reserved for other countries. As it turns out, we were wrong. BMW has confirmed the 2025 M5 Touring will be sold in the U.S. for the first time ever.

As you can imagine, turning BMW’s latest super-sedan into a wagon added weight that the M5 definitely didn’t need. It weighs an estimated 5,530 pounds, 140 lbs more than the sedan. So that’s not great. It’s to be expected, sure, but we’re talking about a sport sedan that weighs nearly 1,000 lbs more than two Miatas. It’s still quick as hell, of course, but few things sap the fun out of corners quite like a massive amount of weight.

While the M5 Touring is heavier than the sedan version, it’s probably worth the extra weight for the increased practicality alone — even if its 3.5-second 0-to-60 time is 0.1 seconds slower than the regular M5's. Plus, it just looks cooler. The current 5 Series is no XM, but it still isn’t all that good-looking. The long roof doesn’t do anything about the front end, but considering how few station wagons we see, it stands out. If BMW later tells us the wagon sells just as well as the sedan, it wouldn’t exactly be the most shocking thing in the world.
