The Evolution of the BMW M5 and the Introduction of the New 6-Series

The iconic BMW M5 has launched its seventh generation, continuing its 40-year legacy as a high-performance saloon For the first time in its history, the new BMW M5 incorporates an electrified drive system, specifically a model-specific M HYBRID system, which delivers a maximum output of 727 hp However, despite the substantial increase in power, the added weight of the hybrid system results in a slower acceleration to 60 mph compared to its predecessor. In parallel, BMW is also preparing for the future with the new 6-Series, slated for release in 2026 This upcoming model will be versatile in terms of powertrain options, accommodating ICE, hybrid, and electric configurations, catering to a broad range of consumer preferences and regulatory environments.
