2024 BMW M TwinPower Turbo V8 Of The M5 Competition Is The Most Powerful

This generation of the BMW M5 ruffled some feathers. It&heavy, and it comes with all-wheel drive. On the surface, it looks like a far cry from the driver&cars of old. Underneath, it&the same M5 we know and love. The transmission and powertrain work together well to provide blistering acceleration, and the M5 is still a beast in the corners. We&miss last year&world-beating CS, but even a base M5 is more performance than most drivers will ever need. Even better, the M5 lacks the M3&yawning grille. We do miss the lightness of old M models—in some ways, this M5 feels closer to the X6 M than a vintage M5. The steering still lacks the feedback we&looking for, and we wish BMW didn&have to pipe the V-8&noise into the cabin. But it&hard to argue with the M5&performance, and it&even harder to argue from behind the wheel. Make no doubt about it: This is a real M5.
