The Next BMW M5 Will Look Something Like This
That didn’t take long, did it? Just over 12 hours after BMW pulled the virtual wraps off its new 5-series, and the saloon has already been rendered in M5 form.
This particular piece of work comes from Hungarian renderer X-Tomi Design, and while the car’s perhaps sitting a little too low, we reckon it’s about on the money.
The next M5 is of particular interest for two reasons. Firstly, it’ll be available with optional four-wheel drive for the first time (expect the vast majority of buyers to spec that), and secondly, it should be outrageously fast.
You see, the incoming ‘G30’ M550i xDrive will do 0-62mph in an astonishing four seconds dead, which is two tenths faster than the current M5 Competition Pack. That’ll be down to the 100kg drop in weight the G30 enjoys, plus the helping hand of all-wheel drive traction off the line. So, factor in the 600bhp+ output expected from the next M5’s 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8, and we’ll have a car that’s more than capable of giving the Mercedes-AMG E63 and Audi RS6 some serious gyp.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

I’m sorry, but I think most BMWs today look the same.
Some say that most BMWs now look Pretty Much The Same, Others Say that it looks quite a lot more than a current 3-Series, at least, from the front.
All we know is, we’ll probably never be able to get the comparison questions right..
No sh*t Sherlock! lol jk pls don’t kill me
Same with Mercedes, in fact, the Audis are starting to look more different to one another
I agree, but the mercedes lineup look almost identical to each other. Most people wouldn’t be able to tell the difference
I find comments like this funny, the only series this G30 looks similar to is the 7series and thats it, the 3 series looks completely different, so does the 2 , the 1, the 6 and X range.
If you cant diffrentiate the difference i suggest wearing some glasses.
Rant over.
*m3
A 5-Series that’s faster than a current Competition Pack M5? Screw the M5, I’m buying the M550i!
Or wait for the new M5
600+?
Looks like a big M2
What’s wrong with the M2 LOL?
Plot twist! It’s actually a Straight Six Biturbo
BMW just confirmed that it’s a V8
Someone swap an E60 V10 in it
I dont like front bumper. The lights and body looks incredible though
It’s an M5…
By X-Tomi…
Shouldn’t it therefore be an MX5?
It’s just a 4 door M4 by the looks of it.
