Is the 2025 BMW M5 exclusively a hybrid and what are its performance figures in Canada?
Yes, the 2025 BMW M5 is exclusively available as a plug-in hybrid. The system combines the S68 4.4L twin-turbo V8 (585 hp) with an electric motor for a combined system output of 727 hp and 738 lb-ft of torque. Canadian pricing starts at approximately $149,900 CAD. The 0–100 km/h time is 3.5 seconds. The 18.6 kWh battery pack provides approximately 67 km of EV range (WLTP) — realistically 45–50 km in summer Canadian conditions and 30–35 km in winter. Level 2 charging (11 kW) fills the battery in approximately 1.5 hours. The M Steptronic 8-speed automatic transmission and xDrive AWD with active M rear differential are standard across all variants. The M5 Touring wagon is confirmed for the Canadian market at approximately $161,000 CAD for buyers who need high-performance cargo capability.
