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.

RWD as standard fitment…and no “Drift Mode” needed…Audi, Mercedes, are you taking notes?
Originally I was still going to go for an M5 F10. Having seen this render I’m definitely going to wait for it.
In my opinion, most BMW’s look quite similar today, but this M5 render is goooooood
That’d better not be what it looks like. There are no kidney grilles.
Plot twist, there’s no engine and it’s electric
I like how people who can’t differentiate between BMWs think this looks exactly like every other bmw on the road, while I’m here enjoying life as I can find differences between all of them by just looking at the lights. All hail me, your new car god human hybrid
Its got stretched tyres, therefor it looks sh*t.
