2025 BMW M5 | POV NIGHT DRIVE

EV Channels Review

The 2025 BMW M5 (G90) is presented as the most powerful M5 ever, boasting a hybridized 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 producing a combined 717 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque, enabling a 0-60 mph time of approximately 3.5 seconds. While the return of the Touring variant is noted, the primary focus is on the sedan's significant weight gain (around 1,000 lbs) due to its plug-in hybrid system, which includes a 194 hp electric motor and a 14.8 kWh battery offering up to 30 miles of electric-only range. The review highlights the car's advanced features, including the rear-biased M xDrive AWD with an active differential, adaptive dampers, rear-axle steering, and the choice between standard or optional carbon ceramic brakes. Despite the added weight, the M5 G90 promises exhilarating performance, though its substantial price point ($119,000 - $140,000) positions it as a premium offering.
