With dual radiators, 20-inch front and 21-inch rear wheels, and the option for carbon ceramic brakes, this beast means business on the road.

Underneath the hood lies a potent hybrid powertrain, combining a twin-turbo V8 engine with an electric motor to churn out a whopping 717 horsepower.

Inside, the M5 Touring offers a blend of luxury and technology, featuring iDrive 8.5, programmable M buttons, and various driving modes to cater to every mood and road condition.

With all-wheel drive, paddle shifters, and a boost function for instant acceleration, the M5 Touring is not just about straight-line speed but also about delivering a dynamic driving experience. The car strikes a balance between comfort and performance, making it suitable for daily commuting while still offering the thrill of spirited driving when the road opens up. Overall, the BMW M5 Touring is a versatile powerhouse that embodies the essence of a practical yet exhilarating high-performance wagon.
