Michael Hines — August 22, 2017 — Autos
The all-new BMW M5 is a very important car for the brand. It's a reminder that the German automaker is still committed to making performance cars. And perform this car does. It packs a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 engine good for 600 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. For the first time ever the M5 comes equipped with all-wheel drive but that can be toggled off to make the car rear-wheel drive.
The new BMW M5 has an understated exterior design that is subtle and belies its true power. The interior is a different story. The cabin is luxurious, especially those leather sports seats. All this power and luxury of course won't come cheap. The BMW M5 will cost a hair under $140,000 when it goes on sale in the fall of 2017.
