据宝马博客透露，下一代宝马M5将于8月21日亮相。几天以后，M5将在法兰克福车展正式与公众见面。宝马已经发布了新款M5很多信息，该车将搭载一台4.4升V8双涡轮引擎，预计功率441千瓦/600马力，扭矩700牛米，搭配xDrive全驱系统，可提供全后驱模式，将所有动力传递至后轮。车辆百公里加速时间3.5秒。从谍照看，新车轮拱进一步外延，前脸底部更宽阔。双泡碳纤维车顶进一步降低车重，碳陶瓷刹车盘提供了更好的制动力。车尾一对圆形排气尾管从两侧伸出。M5内装目前还很神秘，预计将以5系标准版为基础，增加支撑性更好座椅和更厚实方向盘，数字仪表群包括最高时速330公里速度表。预计该车将于明年4月开始交付客户。
2018 BMW M5 Debuting In 2 Weeks, Just Before Frankfurt Show
The next-generation BMW M5 will debut during the week of August 21, according to anonymous sources speaking to BMW Blog. The date will put the unveiling just a few days before the start of the Frankfurt Motor Show when the public will get the first chance to see the new super sedan.
BMW already released a significant amount of information about the next-gen M5. We know that it uses a 4.4-liter biturbo V8, and BMW Blog’s sources continue to think that the mill produces 600 horsepower (441 kilowatts) and 516 pound-feet (700 Newton-meters) of torque. A version of the company’s xDrive all-wheel-drive system can operate in a fully rear-drive mode that still allows for drivers to have fun by sliding the tail. Plus, the setup still allows the four-door to reach 62 miles per hour (100 kilometers per hour) in around 3.5 seconds.
Spy shots already give us a great idea of what to expect from the new M5’s design. The fenders bulge slightly, and there’s a broad lower fascia. A double-bubble, carbon-fiber roof cuts weight, and carbon-ceramic brakes haul down the sedan. At the rear, a pair of circular exhaust tips poke out on each side.
The M5’s cabin is a bit more mysterious. It’s safe to expect the standard 5 Series forming the basis for the design, but look for BMW to install heavily bolstered seats and a thick-rimming steering wheel. A sporty revisions to the digital instrument cluster would include a 205-mph (330-kph) speedometer.
While the reveal is just a few weeks away, buyers might have a long wait to take delivery. A user on the Bimmer Post forum recently reported reserving a new M5, and the dealer told the person that the sedan wouldn’t arrive until April 2018.
