Those in the market for a brand-new BMW M5 now have the option to go for the M5 Touring, but you’ll have to wait until November 2024 to order one, which is not too far from now. Pricing is yet to be disclosed, but just to give you an idea, the difference between the i5 M60 xDrive (sedan) and the i5 M60 xDrive Touring is €2,000. The M5 Sedan carries a base price of €144,000, and I guess the Touring is gonna cost just a li’l bit more.

Except for the obvious difference, the bodykit of the M5 Touring is pretty much the same as its Sedan sibling. As standard, the wagon rides on a staggered M light-alloy wheel setup of 20-inch at the front and 21-inch at the rear; there are 5 variants of these M light-alloy wheels to choose from. As is the case with the Sedan, the M Compound brakes come standard, and you have the option to go for M Carbon ceramic brakes. Standard specification also includes adaptive M suspension with electronically controlled dampers and Integral Active Steering.

As for the things under the hood, well, it’s the exact same setup as the Sedan. The powertrain is a combination of a 4.4-litre V8 biturbo petrol engine and an electric motor (PSM) integrated into a ZF 8-speed automatic gearbox. The ICE offers 430 kW (585 metric hp) and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft), while the e-motor develops 145 kW (197 metric hp) and up to 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) of effective torque—resulting from pre-gearing. The system figures, however, are 535 kW (727 metric hp) and 1,000 Nm (738 lb-ft). The M xDrive AWD system distributes these numbers to both axles.

The battery pack remains the same, 22.1 kWh, estimated to offer a pure EV range of anywhere between 61 – 67 km (38 – 42 mi). A bit less than the Sedan, but it is understandable. The official 0-100 km/h (62 mph) sprint time is 3.6 seconds; 0.1 seconds slower, for obvious reasons (2,475 kg unladen vs Sedan’s 2,435 kg unladen). The top speed remains limited to 250 km/h (155 mph), but can be extended to 305 km/h (190 mph) with an optional package.

Inside, it’s the same deal as the Sedan, as you might expect, but of course, you do get the advantage of that extra cargo space (up to 1,630 litres). The BMW Live Cockpit Professional and BMW Head-Up Display are included as standard. A panoramic glass sunroof remains an optional extra.
