Verdict

Pros Cons of BMW M5

Pros

  • Mind-bending performance that defies physics.
  • It effectively functions as two cars.
  • It is comfortable enough for daily commutes.
  • M1/M2 steering wheel buttons for customised driving.
  • Unpretentious appearance compared to flamboyant supercars.

Cons

  • Heaviest M5 ever.
  • Mixed reactions for its aggressive styling.
  • Other alluring options are available at this price point.
  • Milder engine sound compared to the pure V8s of the past.

Verdict

The BMW M5 (G90) is a super saloon that has successfully addressed the modern need for sustainability without sacrificing the M division’s soul and spirit. While purists may not enjoy the increased weight and hybridisation, the trade-off is a vehicle that offers a genuinely usable electric range for week-to-week travel and power-packed V8 performance for the weekends.
It is the automotive equivalent of Clark Kent, mild-mannered and respectable on the surface, but capable of revealing a superpower when the situation demands it. If you are looking for a single vehicle that can serve as a luxury family hauler and a track-day weapon, the BMW M5 remains the pragmatic king of the super saloon segment. It is not just a car; it is a statement that the future of performance is both electric and exhilarating.


Bilal concludes,

“Does that make the M5 a bargain? Perhaps. It isn’t as flashy or flamboyant as a raging bull, but that is the point of a sleeper. Clark Kent doesn’t want the world to know how super he really is underneath.”
