The 2025 BMW M5 represents a significant evolution of the legendary sports sedan. It now features a groundbreaking plug-in hybrid powertrain that combines a potent V8 engine with an electric motor. Despite the electrification, the M5 maintains its dual personality, serving as a luxurious daily driver and a high-performance machine. For enthusiasts seeking the ultimate sports sedan, the new BMW M5 lease deal proves that hybrid technology can enhance rather than compromise performance.
What’s New For 2025?
The 2025 M5 sedan boasts a new design and will exclusively be offered as a plug-in hybrid model. Built upon the latest 5-series, it will also introduce a wagon version named the M5 Touring, set to debut in the U.S. market.
Engine and Transmission
The 2025 BMW M5 debuts a potent plug-in hybrid powertrain, pairing a twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 with an electric motor for a combined 717 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque—a significant 100-hp increase over its predecessor. The standard all-wheel-drive system features a drift mode, while adaptive dampers and rear-wheel steering enhance handling dynamics. BMW claims a 3.4-second sprint to 60 mph. The X6 boasts impressive power delivery and composed handling, though with light steering feel, while maintaining luxurious ride quality. BMW says that the M5’s 14.8-kWh battery pack will deliver approximately 25 miles of electric-only driving on a full charge.
Fuel Economy
Official fuel economy ratings for the new M5 have not yet been disclosed by either BMW or the EPA. However, it’s reasonable to expect that the hybrid powertrain will achieve improved mileage compared to the previous model, which had ratings of 15 mpg city and 21 mpg highway.
Interior and Tech
The 2025 BMW M5’s interior builds on the 5-series foundation with performance-focused additions like an M-specific flat-bottom steering wheel, larger shift paddles, and sportier seats. The tech-focused cabin features a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster paired with a 14.9-inch central touchscreen running iDrive 8.5. Standard amenities include a panoramic sunroof and Bowers & Wilkins audio, though a lightweight carbon-fiber roof is optional.
Safety and Driver Assistance
As with other vehicles in BMW’s extensive lineup, the 2025 BMW M5 comes equipped with a comprehensive suite of standard driver assistance technologies, while more advanced features are available through the optional Driving Assistance Professional Package.
Standard Features:
- Frontal Collision Mitigation
