Look for the sport sedan to get a serious infusion of XM.
. Will the new M5 deliver stupid speed and incredible handling? Probably—the outgoing M5 is a riot, particularly in CS form—and the new XM SUV is a sweet driver, too, even if its face looks like Rocky Balboa's after losing a title fight. The new 5 Series' styling still seems conventional by modern BMW standards, so the M5 variant likely won't strike most as full-on repulsive. Huge power and not-ugly looks? Bring it on.
—and thus electrification will enable the M5 to stay in step with the march of progress, not just at BMW but throughout the automotive world at large.The hybrid gear from the XM means the M5 will pack at least 644 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. BMW could also spec a gonzo version with the XM Label Red's 738-hp, 738-lb-ft powertrain. That would be more than enough power to offset what likely will be a several-hundred-pound weight gain over today's M5.
