Overdrive|September 2017

The 2018 BMW M5 made its debut in the virtual world in the EA street racing game, Need For Speed Payback.

All-New BMW M5 Is Quickest M Car Yet

The Bavarian automaker claims it is the quickest M car ever. Powered by the same V8 as the previous-generation BMW M5, it is now tuned to generate 608PS (up from 560PS) and 750Nm. This is enough to ferry the car past the 100kmph mark in under 3.4 seconds, onwards to 200kmph in 11.1 seconds, and then more till it hits an electronically limited top speed of 250kmph.
