The new BMW M5 was presented to the public at the Frankfurt Auto Show with a turbo-charged V8 under its hood matted to a seven speed M double-clutch Drivelogic transmission. This M tuned turbo V8 in the new M5 increases the torque of the vehicle.  It also has a hydraulically assisted power steering and power is allocated from side to side by BMW’s clever limited slip differential. For sustainability, BMW M creates a vehicle that provides 30% better fuel economy, thanks to its Valvetronic, direct injection, and turbo-charging.

The suspension features components are lighter. The shock absorbers are electronically controlled, the steering is M specific Servotronic. Stability control, high performance braking and M-dynamic mode compliment the superb turbo V8.

The appearance of the M5 is subtly aggressive, with its interior showing luxury.

Delivering  0-100 km/h in 4.4 seconds, from 0-200 km/h in just 13 seconds, this is one powerful four door sedan. If you purchase the optional driver’s package, the top speed will increase to 190 MPH.
