Moving inside, the overall layout is similar to the standard model but it gets sportier elements. It features a three-spoke steering wheel that embeds dedicated ‘M’ buttons, and sporty seats.

In terms of features, it gets twin curved screens for instrument cluster and for infotainment, four-zone auto climate control, heated front seats, ambient lighting with M-specific interior lighting, a panoramic glass roof, a Bowers & Wilkins audio system, wireless charging and automatic tailgate operation.

Talking about the powertrain, the sedan gets a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine paired with an electric motor housed in the eight-speed automatic transmission. The engine puts out 585hp and the e-motor puts out 199hp resulting in a total system output of 727hp and 1001Nm of torque.

The new M5 can sprint from 0-100kph in 3.5 seconds and has a top speed of 250kph as standard, but can be extended to 305kph with the optional M Driver’s Package.
