Model guide

BMW M5 Sedan (G90) overview

Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.

Design

The exterior styling of the G90 M5 emphasizes aerodynamics and aggressive cooling. The front fascia features a prominent double kidney grille alongside large side air intakes integrated into the M-specific bumper. At the rear, the design incorporates a large diffuser and chrome exhaust outlets that signal its performance capabilities. A functional roof spoiler further aids high-speed stability. The car measures 5,096 mm in length with a wide 1,970 mm stance (excluding mirrors), giving it an imposing presence on the road.

Interior

Inside the cabin, the M5 balances high-end luxury with motorsport-inspired elements. Materials include natural leather upholstery accented by metal and wood trim pieces. Heavily bolstered sport seats provide necessary lateral support during spirited driving. The driver-focused layout includes an M-specific steering wheel complete with configurable performance buttons and a red center marker. The digital experience is anchored by a large curved display setup, ensuring all primary vehicle functions and infotainment settings are easily accessible.

Performance

Power comes from a complex M HYBRID powertrain. The core is a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine (S68B44T0) generating 585 hp and 750 Nm of torque. This is paired with an electric motor contributing an additional 197 hp, culminating in a massive combined system output of 727 horsepower and 1,000 Nm of torque. An 8-speed M Steptronic automatic transmission directs power to all four wheels. This setup enables a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of just 3.5 seconds. Notably, the hybrid system allows for up to 69 kilometers of pure electric driving at speeds up to 140 km/h.

Practicality

As an E-class executive sedan, the M5 remains highly usable for daily driving. It comfortably seats five passengers within its long 3,006 mm wheelbase. The trunk offers 466 liters of cargo capacity, which is adequate for typical luggage or daily errands, though slightly impacted by the hybrid battery hardware. The dual nature of the hybrid system also means it can operate cleanly and quietly for short city commutes, reporting a mixed fuel consumption of 1.7 liters per 100 km under optimal plug-in conditions.

Safety and tech

The technological suite is built around the iDrive 8.5 infotainment system. It utilizes a dual-screen array consisting of a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 14.9-inch central touchscreen. This interface supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration. While specific active safety features depend on the exact market configuration, the modern G90 platform includes comprehensive driver assistance systems managed through the central interface, allowing drivers to tailor both safety interventions and performance metrics.

Buyer notes

When researching the G90 M5, buyers should pay attention to how the plug-in hybrid system aligns with their charging habits, as the impressive fuel efficiency figures rely on utilizing the available electric range. The 2,435 kg curb weight is a significant factor to consider for those intending to use the vehicle for frequent track days. Equipment and specific trim details, including standard active safety tech and interior finishes, will vary based on regional availability.
