"The M5 has always been the standard bearer among the BMW line, with the larger 7-series being more pure luxury and the 3-series a bit more on the playful side. To be an M5, it must do everything right. Comfort that makes you never want to leave the seat, power that ensures you own the road, and handling that is part super saloon and part ultimate sports car. The newest M5 ticks all those boxes and more, including all-wheel drive, an M5 first. Compare it against previous generations and you’ll see the results of years of evolution of the ultimate driving machine."—Official description[1]
The 2018 BMW M5 - abbreviated as "BMW M5 '18" - is a front-engine, all-wheel drive super saloon by BMW.
It appears in Forza Horizon 4 as part of the Fortune Island expansion, Forza Horizon 5 and Forza Motorsport (2023).
Synopsis[]
The F90 codenamed BMW M5 is the sixth generation of the BMW M5 super saloon, replacing the F10 series for the 2018 model year.
Engine and drivetrain[]
It uses a reworked S63 twin-turbo engine that produces 591 hp (441 kW) from 5600 to 6700 rpm and 553 ft·lb (750 N·m) of torque from 1800 to 5600 rpm.
An eight-speed torque converter transmission replaces the dual-clutch unit of the F10, while the drivetrain was switched to an all-wheel drive with torque vectoring, making it the first M5 with the aforementioned drive type.[2]
