The New BMW M5 Touring G99 | 727hp & 1000nm Hybrid | 4k

[@ollieb81]

It’s a shame they never made an F90 touring. It would have looked fantastic.

[@felixdornblueth]

There is the Alpina B5 Touring though

[@renas5371]

F90 touring would’ve sold like hot cakes, whereas I don’t think this will - BMW will say we’ve given people what they asked for but no one bought it, and so they won’t make another one. Trust them to release what people want on the wrong platform.

[@JoeAchilles1]

Agreed, the B5 T looks incredible 🔥

[@sriharisidharth3283]

Bout time BMW made an Antonov An-225 competitor

[@JoseSantiago-ho2oy]

😂

[@rolandescher]

ROTFL! 😂🤣😅

[@WookieAido]

😂😂😂

[@jackhiggs]

A real shame that they've ditched the rear window opening. Also the boot space is the same as the M3 which is unacceptable - it should be 600 litres at least. The drive train is epic though.

[@Woodbang.parametric]

You can say what you want but I'm just glad it exists. Yes, it's heavy, the front isn't exactly pretty but it's not another M version of an SUV. It's fast estate car and you just have to appreciate it.

[@Stilo95]

Why? What is to appreciate? Look at its predecessor! That one should be appreciated, not this Chinese sh*t!

[@biafo4541]

That's a refreshing way to look at it, with fast SUVs taking over we shouldn't care about looks for now and just be happy this exists

[@jaymum23]

Only problem is it weighs more than most SUVs🥴

[@51madmitch]

Dash is an utter mess, what are they thinking, why a backward Rev counter still, rest of the car looks great, those wheels look fun to clean, NOT lol.

[@nstarmore]

It may as well be an SUV at this point with the size and weight of it. Literally the only thing it has going for it against an X5 is a lower centre of gravity (and you'd look marginally less of a bell end driving it)

[@cristoferomezzatesta2992]

The thing I love about the RS6 is the massive wheel arches, it’s like a monster on its haunches. Harder to tell in this video and the lighting, but the M5 could do with a bit of a shoulder workout.

[@Pabla98]

Supposedly the m5 is 3” wider bc of the fenders, I feel like it’s just not picked up in camera

[@swiss889]

My mate had an rs6 it did 8mpg driven hard he soon got rid of it 🤣

[@georgemutale8947]

This thing looks insane! Don't understand the hate.

[@zanstefe1310]

because its a hybrid (i dont care if it is, it looks great)

[@JoeAchilles1]

It's not bad looking, but not as pretty as the F90 generation in my opinion.

[@reznanita]

Looks are not the problem. Have heard it taking corners in Nurburgring. It is super heavy.

[@NewHandle_]

The weight mainly. I also heard it doesn't feel as solid as previous 5 series'. But that was the normal car not M

[@hal9xxx321]

Because it looks soo bloated and bulbous like a damn whale... Weighs like one too

[@HeavyOnCars]

It’s been a 15 year long wait and it did not disappoint. The G generation M5 Looks much better as a Touring!

[@HassTahir]

I actually really like the new M5's styling, but I'm loving this Touring a lot more 😍

[@MrQuashu]

And tbh M3 looks so so much better than this hippo.

[@beckygair2272]

Wow what a car Love the colour combo Joe BMW through and through Great Video Joe

[@carlannanan]

One day when I'm big, I'll own this car. used to be obsessed with the RS6 but now I'm converted.

[@georgipress]

I love that AMR green ❤

[@eRA_Slugsy]

I was really hoping this would look amazing. I'm absolutely gutted that it doesn't, it's not a patch on the RS6 and I'm a BMW fanboy. WTF are you doing BMW? The potential was massive but the outcome is disappointing to say the least.😭

[@sadman6295]

100% agree, I thought exactly the same. Had M cars for the last 20 years (currently own G80 M3, had M5 F90 prior) and I have to say the M5 touring is so disappointing, where are the flared rear arches this car needed BMW ???

[@eliaspemmerl5152]

[@1234567robbie]

[@dimsoneill]

This looks like absolute crap compared to an RS6. The front on the M5 is simply awful. And I like the latest M3.

[@schaeffs88]

Fantastic mate - been waiting for this review! I think it’s a worthy X5MC replacement!

[@Hammertime4404]

The latest M2 doesn’t have the carbon shifter paddles. Since the recent facelift they’ve gone back to the silver ones you get in a standard 220i

[@quoman2232]

Delighted to hear that the saloon is only £110.000😂😂😂

[@rare6499]

Bargain, I will have one for each foot.

[@millsey7991]

As soon as you said it's "good value" I spat out my tea. Maybe this is the problem with the ludicrously overpriced cars these days, people are accepting and justifying it which doesn't help with the greed of the modern world. Nice car though

[@SebsTech1]

Same, I thought 112k was absolutely ridiculous. Way nicer motors for that money.

[@JoeAchilles1]

Yes it's a colossal amount of money, but it's all relative, it's cheaper than an RS 6 Performance and massively less than an GT63 4 door or whatever they call it.

[@UKAviationMovies]

God, that's an absolute stunner. Can't wait to see your road test and review of this car Joe 🤘

[@ryannesbitt8568]

Super proud of Joe and that he is reviewing the brand new M5 touring well done mate

[@E.PELLEGRINO]

Regarding Laserlight, you are correct... LED have become so powerful, that the laser light technology is not really needed anymore

[@Bimmer_Bill]

Love it! Screw the haters!

[@Youppp]

I love everything about it. Especially as its a plugin.

[@markrhoden68]

Imagine seeing this coming up behind you 😱 Love that BMW offers the option of different colour leather rather than dark greys and black 👏

[@xatarskoftespie8844]

Just checked the BMW site and noticed that it consumes 67 liters of fuel per 100km when the battery is empty. How the fuck is that even possible? They legitimately build a tank.

[@Staniii2360]

You‘re mixing things up or it’s simply wrong on the site. They mention 61-67km electric range.

[@dimsoneill]

Oh dear. That is a face only a mother could love.

[@kevincockburn7805]

The front end has a whiff of the saab 9-5, that clarkson famoulsy likened to wearing dame edna everidge glasses.

[@harryatkinson9757]

Looks great but I don’t think I would swap my M3 Touring for it……

[@raiiiar]

Absolutely. Hold on to that car for dear life.

[@petermumford9023]

Great video again Joe, now looking forward to seeing you actually driving this magnificent beast! I love it!

The only beast like thing is that it's big and heavy 😢

[@tomashley5869]

Great first take, Joe, on this incredible BMW. Cheers, Tom

[@BoneStarr2k]

Amazing, thanks Joe, I really like the style and design, that rear centre fog light is gonna get coded to a brake light in the aftermarket I'm sure

[@JohnInSale]

Seeing this makes me appreciate the M3 much much more , love the M3 nose as opposed to this as it just looks like a Škoda 🙃

[@dimsoneill]

Skoda looks better IMHO. This front end is very average.

[@JohnInSale]

@@dimsoneill not to me, but I do love a Škoda too and in general a very good estate car, but this BMW M3 estate with that front grill just pips it for me 🫣

[@AndreiGonzalesDesign]

Not sure if you even check, but a lot of the car forums are excited about the touring.

[@MiniEggs1999]

It will be interesting to see where they position the next Alpina B5 given I assume they will keep them as a low volume OEM. Maybe take the battery out, trick suspension and comfort seats in some very expensive leather perhaps

[@jamiec4478]

Wasn’t the biggest fan of the new 5 series on photos and videos. Finally seen one in person and it looked very good and aggressive. Can’t wait to see the m5 in person

[@rs22296]

Just doesn't look like an M car, doesn't even look like an M lite. Just looks like an electric car, I don't think this will sell well at all because they're not appealing to the target market. I get it though, they are easing us into having fully electric M cars.

[@vagjagan]

Wonderful review. Superb entry 😂

[@Misledband]

Also not to hate but this is 700/800kg heavier than the m3 touring?

[@raiiiar]

Which is already heavy.

[@AdamBrowne-eg1eb]

It looks fat. The front end is hideous. I can’t grasp the recent bmw design language. Compare this design to the rs6 and panamerra and it’s night and day. It’s absolutely hideous. The m3 touring is a far more poised design.

[@PrinceBarin77]

Well said. This looks like a boat, especially from the front.

[@briangery7963]

I have alot of respect for the M5, and I’m sure this new car is a beast on the road, but I’ll take my RS6 performance with its old school, non-hybrid drivetrain all day long. Audi just does the complete package wagon better than their rivals and the 2024 RS6 performance is an almost perfect car.

[@gregstubbings7643]

I am an RS6 fan, but I must say, this M5 Touring is very nice. The only thing I don't like are those wheels.

[@jokersweet]

I find it ugly though in overalls... rs6 look much better

[@gregstubbings7643]

@jokersweet I do agree the RS6 is much better looking, but I don't mind the look of the M5 Touring.

[@neilmcguinness4422]

To me, it looks vile at first glance, but you just know it will drive fantastic regardless of it's weight, and those looks will grow on me for sure when I see one on the road, as it will have massive presence. I do understand the hate at first glance though. I felt the same about the new M2, but having seen how aggressive and threatening they look on the road, I now love the thing.

[@johngoodwin1710]

Whatever we think about the styling or weight or ‘at £113k I won’t be buying one’, when you first see one of these monsters on the road, admiration will prevail 👀

Ey Joe! I have a question for you please.

Thank you so much for your assistance and recommendation! Thanks indeed

[@dmperry134]

Hi Joe, great video as usual, I drive a F90 M5 which I think is a better looking car than the newer version. I also have to agree with a lot of others that the RS6 looks and sounds better and I bet sells a lot more than the new M5 touring.

[@mlo5083]

The electric motor is in the diff. As in one unit. That is why there is no delay in anything anywhere. You press the pedal and it goes.

[@enricofranco6271]

I want all BMW enthusiasts who detest the latest designs and consider them a destruction of the character of iconic cars like the M5 or the 7 Series to know that the author of those atrocities is Demagoj Dukec, a designer of such low caliber that no one will ever understand why he is in that position. The current M3, which perfectly embodies the BMW style and character, was designed by Anne Forschner, a great designer who is competent and passionate about cars and who deserves to be in Demagoj Dukec’s place.

[@emjbee101]

It’s got a bit of an M2 look to some of the styling, which is not a good thing. Don’t like it at all. M3 touring is way nicer looking.

[@turbomunch]

Give it the 340d face and it would be perfect.

[@choyayahyah]

Looks great but weighs way too much. Despite what you say Joe on what it feels like, it's slower than the outgoing M5 and all due to its weight. I'm sure the M5 CS will go down as the greatest M5 of all time

[@Bimmer_Bill]

It’s heavy no doubt. But the g90 m5 is faster than the f90 in real world acceleration tests and faster than the f90 m5 cs in rolling acceleration tests. The actual tested data is 3.0 0-100 km/hr and 7.0 100-200 kmh.
