Welcome back to RBR! Today, we’re celebrating 40 years of the #BMWM #M5 with the introduction of the first-ever hybrid in the Seventh Generation G90 #BMWM5. This powerhouse combines a 585HP V8 engine with a 142HP electric motor, raising some important questions about weight, handling, power-to-weight ratio, and price. Most of which I’ll answer today: and the price you’ll be quite happy with!!

The G90 BMW M5 delivers a total of 727HP and 1000NM of torque, rocketing from 0-60 mph in just 3.5 seconds and reaching a top speed of 189 mph (305 km/h). The V8 alone contributes 585HP and 750NM of torque, featuring a new cross-bank exhaust manifold for better heat management and optimized oil separation, revving up to 7200 rpm. While not as powerful as the 625HP unit in the X6M, this setup might be leaving room for a competition level in the future… ;)

The hybrid system adds up to 197HP from the motor and battery, with the motor producing 280NM of torque. The battery has an 18.6 kW usable capacity, offering a range of 67-69 km (42-43 miles) and supports 7.4 kW charging, which will increase to 11 kW from November. Very useful for a daily supercar

Weighing in at 2435 kg, the new M5 is 540 kg heavier than its predecessor (1895 kg), but the power-to-weight ratio is still better which leaves some hope, but what about handling?

The M xDrive system is the usual fair with an active M differential, drift mode, and near actuator slip limiter. The chassis features the adaptive M suspension and electronic dampers at each wheel. Unique kinematics and elastokinematics, a rigid connection of the M variable ratio steering, and 1.5-degree rear-wheel steering should enhance feedback and accuracy.  More changes I’ll go over including the stiffening done to the chassis.

Design-wise, the G90 showcases typical BMW M DNA with a wider front (+75mm) and rear (+48mm), staggered 20/21-inch wheels, and massive 100mm exhaust pipes. I’ll show you both the matte black car, and an isle of many green version.

Inside, the new M5 features an all-new steering wheel with illuminated M buttons, new M seats with a lighted logo, and M lighting in the 5 Series light bar. The M Control panel in the center includes M Modes, an M Hybrid button, setup options, and a red start button.

M Drive Professional comes standard in the UK, adding DYNAMIC and DYNAMIC PLUS modes to keep the drive system and cooling at high levels or for short bursts of full power on the track. Launch control is available in all modes except 2WD.

But is it too heavy? How does it drive? How does the exhaust sound? We’re also driving the prototype today, so let’s find out!
