Accordingly, the BMW M5 2025 is sold at a starting price of RM 1,188,800 (about VND 7.3 billion), excluding insurance. Customers who buy the car with an extended warranty and maintenance package will have the car price increase to RM 1,247,900 (about VND 7.66 billion). The 2025 BMW M5 G90 is equipped with a PHEV powertrain that combines a 4.4L twin-turbo V8 engine with an electric motor transmitted through an 8-speed M Steptronic automatic transmission and a full-time 4-wheel drive system (M xDrive). The total system capacity reaches 727 horsepower and 1,000 Nm, helping the car accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds and 0-200 km/h in 10.9 seconds.
The vehicle is equipped with an 18.6 kWh lithium-ion battery, providing a pure electric range of 69 km (according to the WLTP standard), with the ability to run purely electric at speeds of up to 140 km/h. The maximum AC charging power is 11 kW, allowing a full charge in approximately 3 hours and 15 minutes. The engine sound system is simulated through BMW IconicSounds Electric combined with the M Sport exhaust, creating a sporty driving experience. The BMW M5 G90 is equipped with a double wishbone front suspension and a 5-link rear suspension, along with the M adaptive suspension system with 3 modes: Comfort, Sport and Sport Plus. It is also the first M5 to feature rear-wheel steering, which improves handling and agility at low speeds. The new M5's highly personalised driver interface allows the transmission, suspension, brakes, steering, stability control and hybrid energy recuperation to be independently configured via the M1 and M2 buttons on the steering wheel. The 2025 BMW M5 impresses with its powerful aerodynamic design including: large air intakes, BMW Iconic Glow radiator grille with glossy black border, M Carbon package (including roof, rearview mirrors and spoiler), and 20-inch M alloy wheels in the front and 21-inch in the rear.
The rear of the car stands out with a Gurney spoiler, vertical reflectors and a dual four-pipe exhaust system. The car has 8 exterior paint color options, including Alpine White, Fire Red, Isle of Man Green... and 4 interior colors such as Black, Red or Kyalami Orange. The car's cabin has many high-end amenities such as: BMW Curved Display including a 12.3-inch clock and a 14.9-inch central touch screen running the iDrive 8.5 operating system.
