The 2025 BMW M5 G99 Touring ushers in a new era of performance wagons in Australia, combining traditional M-class muscle with modern hybrid efficiency. Its M?Hybrid powertrain marries a twin-turbocharged 4.4-litre V8 engine (roughly 585?kW peak at 5,600–6,500?rpm and 750?Nm from 1,800–5,400?rpm) with a 145?kW electric motor (280?Nm), delivering a staggering 535?kW and 1,000?Nm total output via the M?xDrive all-wheel-drive system and eight-speed M Steptronic transmission
That power launches the M5 Touring from 0–100?km/h in a blistering 3.6 seconds, and it can reach a top speed of up to 305?km/h when fitted with the M Driver’s Package
Underneath lies an advanced M-tuned chassis: M?xDrive with rear-biased and 2WD modes, rear-wheel steering, Active M Differential, and Adaptive M Suspension balance agility with confidence, hiding the generous weight with remarkable poise on Australian roads
Inside, it’s distinctly M-centric: illuminated Iconic Glow kidney grille, M multifunction seats with heating, carbon-fiber trim, curved dual display, head-up display, and wireless integration with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, all merging performance cues with modern luxury
As the first M5 wagon officially offered Down Under, the Touring model brings not just utility, but a no-compromise, high-tech performance experience designed for both spirited drives and everyday adaptability. Let me know if you’d like a deeper dive into its infotainment or handling features!
