2018 BMW M5 New Details Emerge Revealing 8-Speed Auto, 600+ HP

The M550i is currently the top dog in the 5 Series (G30) family, but that won’t last for long. In just a few months, BMW will unveil the mighty M5 to restore order in the lineup. Much like the M550i, which for the moment is actually the quickest 5 Series ever, the new M5 will adopt an xDrive setup. However, the ace up the flagship’s sleeve will be the possibility of switching to a 100% RWD arrangement by simply pressing a button.

We knew that already, but this new report coming from someone who has seen the car behind closed doors at a private event in South Korea also indicates BMW will give the M5 a third setting: xDrive sport. Exact details are not available at this point, but one could speculate it’s a more RWD-biased setup than the regular mode.

Don't worry about that. You'll be mostly looking at both of those cars' asses as they blow by you on the highway. Unless you drive a Model S or a hypercar, of course.
