Gotta give props to BMW for somehow selling the new M5 for the same price as the old one. Usually with hybrid tech you’re adding on a good few thousand dollars onto the price tag

[@JonWestCo]

Merc learned their lesson with the EQ lineup they quietly discontinued for 25. Glad BMW didn’t go there… although, that XM looks SICK in person. In 26, the V8 will be returning to AMG with the 48v electrified hybrid engine after some body modifications. They’ve prepped it nicely with the AMG I6 in the new CLE53. Still, different body styles, different weights. I hope they get slapped with the poor sales of 2.0L I4… WHY they decided to bastardize the C, E and GLC 63’s with a 2.0L I4 knowing damn well they’re going to release the V8 and the I6 in future AMG 63 and 53-respectively, is completely beyond me. 🤮

[@marcr.6191]

In my opinion, Porsche and AMG have gone overboard with their pricing. Raising prices by around €30k with each model change is just crazy. When you look at the current massive sales declines for these brands, it’s no surprise to see these recent developments.

Mercedes is an actual rip off. Over £180k for a GT63s AMG e performance. And also the SL63/65 convertible 2 seater...that's just stupidity. What kinda bimbo would have 2 brain cells and choose a dead ass merc over a 911 Turbo S, lambos and ferraris, Bentley, and Aston Martins.

Best review I've seen of this car yet. Glad you made it clear that this is the way the industry is going. BMW had no choice but to use the hybrid system in the new M5. It was either that or something full electric. The fact of the matter is that this car will be driven by rich businessmen who will use this to fly on the Autobahn between meetings. The new M5 has that, plus it is now more usable than older M5s with the hybrid system. I am personally not a fan of hybrid systems, but if you have a place where you can always charge the car, it makes the most sense. This is going to attract a lot more buyers, as now people have a more usable M5. Plus, you save money if you use one as a company car. I really don't get it when people say it has no soul. The M5 hasn't had a soul since the E60 with the V10. Since the F10, the M5 has always been a bit muted. The weight is a penalty, but there are many more upsides than downsides to the new M5. What do you expect BMW to do? They managed to work with what they have, and they've done a much better job than AMG when they tried to use hybrid technology. And to those who say it looks ugly, see one in person and you will change your mind. I live less than 10 minutes away from the M headquarters and I see a load of these being tested every day. They have so much presence.

Agree on the soulless M5s buddy! They never did it for me in that regard other than the CS!

[@adeelahmed4065]

In Belgium, for the old V8 non-hybrid M5 you will pay 9k registration tax and 4k annual road tax. If you have it as a company car your benefit of kind is 26k per year. This new G90 M5, your registration tax is 54€, yearly road tax is 1.500€ and benefit of kind is 5k per year. This car will be sold like hot cakes in Belgium. I have read the same thing in the Netherlands. All thanks to the hybrid system, low CO2.

@@itdobelikedat4202 name me 1 car that is currently being made right now that isn’t compromised in some shape or form due to legislation. The M5 isn’t a shitty car. No auto manufacturer builds a shitty car, just remember that if M had their way, they would also rather have pure ICE car than something hybrid or fully electric. Just remember, bmw don’t build cars for fans, they build them for customers. And I’d bet your bottom dollar that most people who buy these M5s are not enthusiasts, but are people who want to have the speed, luxury and brand of a BMW M product. These are the people that buy the cars. We, the enthusiasts, will cry that bmw don’t make small light naturally aspirated monsters, but bmw won’t listen to us.

[@thehousetortoise2852]

A couple opinions as a BMW fanboy and F10 owner: At this weight level, with room to spare by putting the battery in the floor, there is no argument against giving it a DCT. If the new M235i gets one, shouldn't any full blown M car get it too? Also as you said, the hybrid system adds ~ 4-500kg. Had they opted for no electrification, or even a smaller and lighter battery pack, I think with a just a bit more tuning trickery and ECU mapping making "only" low to mid 600 bhp, it would have been a drastically more dynamic drive, especially with a DCT. Regulations be damned i suppose. Still, I'm happy this exists in this day and age and excited to see what the touring will be like.

[@maheenjillani]

A lot of DCTs struggle with high torque figures

[@thehousetortoise2852]

@@maheenjillani Yes, but Tremec's own DCT sits comfortably at 900 NM. I'd take less torque over a more engaging gearbox any day.

[@JohnNick72]

Most surprising thing you said was that the steering feels light (in sport). I always run my F90 in comfort steering and still feel it’s too heavy under 35 mph. Hoping the LCI Comp version of this adds back Full Leather, Massage & more interior and exterior color choices. Then, I might consider the move. That and we’ll see if the styling grows on me. Right now, it’s “Meh.”

[@doubled1978]

I always run my F90 Comp steering in comfort too, anything else and the feel disappears altogether. I don’t have any issue at slow speeds though. For me the Touring will be potentially decisive when I decide to change, but like you I will wait for an LCI/Comp whatever before I do anything. I do like Isle of Man green though 😂

[@MichaelWoloszynowicz]

What's pretty crazy is the residual value of this compared to an M3 Comp on a lease. Despite the price difference, their residuals after 36 months are nearly identical. Goes to show that the M3 is a pretty compelling package and will save you some pain when you go to trade it in.

[@johnmuzic3475]

Yeah the original plan was for this M5 to have 862 hp to beat the AMG 63 S E-Hybrid with its 831hp so maybe the competition and CS will do all that..they need obviously to greatly reduce weight though for the upgraded versions..hope they do a version even above the CS though, like an M5 CS-R or whatever, to compete with the power of the Lucid Sapphire ...they need to punch way above 1300-1500hp to do all that...and remember we haven't even seen yet the tri motor Taycan GT which should have 1500hp or the quad motor Tesla S and Lucid Sapphire..the quad motor Model S should have over 1600hp and the Lucid Sapphire should have over 1800hp...so the M Division needs to very truly focus on reducing weight, improving ride and build quality and up the power to compete with the ever faster and faster high end EV sedans and AMG's...

[@AYO_KO]

Hard to talk about “bang for buck” when here in the US a used F90 LCI is 65k, a pre LCI + iDrive 7 is like 50k (2020), and it’s 45k for a pre LCI (2018-19). For $100k, which is still less than MSRP of this, you can get a AMG GT63s and give it a RennTech 1000hp kit… idk man. It’s a little pointless to pay more money for less performance. Unless you like eating the hit of 30% depreciation to say “I hAvE a NeW car” then I guess to each their own. Btw: M3 became the best M car out once the G80 xDrive dropped

[@lezzgp]

My feeling is that the 0-100 figure doesn’t really matter. You’re going sub 3.2 secs, but remember that the market is different. The M5 for me is an adult family’s supper saloon/ grand tourer. My key points are as follows: 1. 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) acceleration times aren't the only measure of a car's worth. 2. The M5 is positioned as a comfortable, family-friendly grand tourer. 3. M3/M2 models cater to a more performance-oriented, youthful demographic. BMW for me has successfully segmented and differentiated this car from the rest of their offering. Perhaps its CS sibling will deal with the M3/M4 market. The rest of us may just want the power and the comfort. We won’t miss its “chuck ability” For me they’ve done the following just the way I like it: 1. M5: Emphasizes comfort, luxury, and everyday usability. 2. M3/M2: Focuses on raw performance, agility, and driving excitement. This distinction: 1. Allows BMW to target specific customer profiles. 2. Creates a clear product hierarchy. 3. Enhances brand loyalty among diverse customers. Let’s remember the subjective nature of performance metrics. 2. The importance of considering market context. 3. BMW's ability to balance performance and practicality.

Even though the car camouflages the weight like magic, the tires has to handle the weight. Even the G80 M3 struggle's with its weight on track, and melts the tires after 2-3 laps.

Then slightly lowered with some aggressive concave wheels like the m6 gran coupe will finish it off. The battery will no doubt be a concern for someone looking to buy this used? Wonder what the bmw warranty will be for that. Performance wise seems we have reached the pinnacle since the f90. Saw the video of this side by side with f90 and that shows how far this has actually come, can imagine will be more in the flesh. The weight shouldn't be a concern as m5's aren't tracked anyway.

They prefer driving dynamics (performance, light weight) in a sedan. This is why I have read the next M3 will have an ICE and no hybrid because of this very reason.

Yep u have convinced me... I'm getting the 2025 CT5 V BLACKWING

[@aesho46]

That’s a nice boat!!

[@van123446]

YOu haven't convinced me, when I owned the M5 comp. ,,, initially I liked the power, but missed the agility and felt the weight with every canyon tight bend. Can't imagine how this would appease with added weight,, except, yes, for a school run in EV mode.

[@hoodooking1133]

I like that purple I think bmw looks better than most of the amg's and the audi's look like a kia so for the people who can't afford one and talk nonsense, for a person who owned many Bmw's I love how that machine looks its beautiful in that color or the yellow people dont know it actually looks better in person filled with technology to keep you discovering new things about your car

[@js002003]

everyone making a big deal about the weight but lets be honest, for 99% of the drivers in 99% of the driving situations, you're not going to notice it. it's not a track car but the ultimate sporty city crusher/highway cruiser.

[@parvindermander5664]

Its locks are growing on me, colour is awesome

[@maxwellm6342]

That yellow estate looks like deadly python

[@richardmesser1091]

One that just ate a rhino

2500 kg is 2500 kg and physics is physics. No matter how much horses you put into it.

[@cheberlo]

Exactly, physics, all the weight is on the floor between wheel base, which make the centre of mass perfectly balanced, thats why it doesnt feel like a 2.5 ton car, unlike suv’s that have centre of mass mostly at the top.

[@hesamb9135]

both the exterior and interior designs look way better than last generation. Lat generation M5 didn’t look like a $130k car

[@benpaul5330]

Looks gorgeous! Love that color.

[@ReallyAtlanta]

I like how you clearly don't show too many front angles because...Yeah Here I was talking about how bad Mercedes messed up (Outside of the GT's) and look at this...Damn it BMW

[@JAS_APL]

Carbon ceramics fix that , Mega thing and BMW have it sooooo right ATM , all the haters get used to it in the end and what we say to them is, Where is your new M5 ???? Get one ordered 🎉

[@richardlabeja]

The Hybrid system makes the M5 a better daily car, with less frequent trips to the petrol station and packing power for leisure drives :)

[@nevermoyo1400]

Getting an E63 or even a C63 over this would be bonkers

[@louis-markqabazi5696]

That Manscaped and Handyman shavers are really impressive. I do wonder though if they'll work just as well on a curly beard.

[@beekaye1496]

I Love this next Gen M5. It works for me.

[@eiychaaa]

This spec looks so good! Yes, i mean it.
