The third-ever #BMWM M5 Touring is here! Yes it’s 2550KG, but I’m tired of focusing on that. Would we have preferred a 4 cylinder hybrid or a PURE EV?! Hell no. And the days of the pure ICE super wagon are gone, so instead we get this. A rare V8 wagon in 2024, try to find one somewhere else! And also a long-awaited return of #BMW’s performance estate, especially to the USA where the M5 Touring is finally coming!

The G99 #BMWM5 Touring boasts a completely unique body, wider at the front and rear giving it some serious road presence. But the big news isn’t the stunning design – it’s that hybrid powertrain.

Today, we’re breaking down all the details: how BMW M transformed the standard 5er into a true super wagon. From its hybrid V8 setup to its interior upgrades, chassis tech, and design, we’ll cover everything you need to know, including how the Touring compares to the M3 Touring sibling, which is a more important topic than ever before I feel!
BMW M fans have long waited for a new M5 Touring, and this G99 marks the return of an icon. The first-ever M5 Touring, the E34, debuted with 335HP and sub-6-second 0-60mph performance. It was a true sleeper but struggled with sales. The E39 skipped the Touring format entirely, but the E60 brought it back with its screaming V10 engine and aggressive looks. Now, after skipping another generation, BMW M has given us the most advanced M5 Touring yet, and it’s finally coming to the USA!
The G99 M5 Touring combines a 585HP V8 engine with a 142HP electric motor for a total output of 727HP and 1,000NM of torque. It sprints from 0-60mph in just 3.5 seconds and reaches a top speed of 189mph (305km/h). We test it to launch control as fast as the sedan however!

The benefit of the hybrid system however, is a 18.6kWh usable battery, which delivers a range of 67-69km (42-43 miles). This we found to be accurate, and adds a different layer to ownership vs something like the M3.

The interior is class leading, and easily a level about the 3 series and rivals. We will check it out, along with the boot space available, and the exhaust sound of the V8.

BUT - The M5 Touring weighs 2,550kg, 540kg heavier than the previous model. Yes it has M’s Adaptive suspension, tonnes of rigidity measures, chassis tech, XDrive with the famed M differential — but can it negate that weight?? And how does it stack up to the Sedan? Let’s find out in this full review!
