BMW's latest M5 Touring is already a striking presence on the road, and with the introduction of M Performance Parts, the luxury estate can now sport an even more aggressive look.
Despite the availability of these carbon fibre components, the plug-in hybrid M5 Touring retains its formidable weight of 2508kg.
Enhanced aero with carbon fibre
Among the newly available M Performance Parts, the two-section carbon fibre rear diffuser stands out. This addition enhances the vehicle's aggressive rear profile and can be complemented with unique tailpipe trims crafted from a blend of titanium and carbon fibre.
To balance the improved aerodynamics at the rear, M Performance also offers a carbon fibre front splitter. This component skirts the line between subtle integration and bold assertiveness, providing an aesthetic appeal to those seeking to fine-tune their M5 Touring's look.
Additional enhancements
Beyond the aerodynamic tweaks, BMW has introduced other exterior modifications.
Carbon side sill extensions and optional Frozen Black side decals provide an aggressive stance, while carbon wing mirror caps and an M Performance aerial finished in aramid enhance the vehicle's sporty character.
Completing the exterior makeover is a carbon fibre fuel tank cap, a minor yet stylish touch.
Inside, the M5 Touring doesn't lack luxury.
Buyers can opt for four-piece floor mats featuring leather-look edging and decorative stitching, adding a bespoke feel to the interior.
For those seeking an extra touch of exclusivity, an Alcantara and carbon fibre key case is available, alongside M Performance tyre bags for the true enthusiast.
Performance beast
While these M Performance Parts offer no enhancements to the M5 Touring's already formidable powertrain, the vehicle remains an impressive performer.
The vehicle's 4.4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, combined with a hybrid system, delivers a staggering 535kW and 1000Nm of torque. But despite its hefty weight, the M5 Touring continues to impress with its power and agility.
In essence, these new M Performance Parts add a layer of visual drama and aerodynamic refinement to the M5 Touring. However, they do little to mask the vehicle's substantial mass, a characteristic that seems to define this high-performance estate.
The all-new 2025 BMW M5 Touring is heading to New Zealand early next year, with prices starting at $248,900 before on-road costs. However, it's currently unknown whether BMW New Zealand plans to bring these M Performance Parts to the local market.
