The new BMW The M5 has finally arrived, combining hybrid power, sporty design and advanced technologies to deliver an unprecedented driving experience. This model stands out clearly from the Series 5 thanks to its aesthetic and technical elements that emphasize the dynamic capabilities of the car.
The new M5 stands out with its striking wheel arch extensions, powerful side skirts, sculptural front bumper and unique details around the C-pillar, including the embossed “M5” logo. The sporty look is further enhanced by the use of body-coloured painted surfaces, giving the car an elegant and understated appearance.
