The highly anticipated BMW M5 Touring has arrived in South Africa! Pairing everyday useability with added adrenaline, the high-performance BMW M5 Touring impresses with its monolithic design and muscular body styling. Similarly, the interior features a driver focussed cabin with M specific displays echoing a race car atmosphere.
Renier Beneke, General Manager for Sales and Distribution, BMW South Africa, said: “The BMW M5 Touring follows the successful market introduction of the BMW M5 Sedan in South Africa last year. First revealed at the popular BMW M Fest in October 2024, the Sedan was bestowed Performance Car of the Year honours (and placed third overall) in the 2025 Old Mutual Insure South African Car of the Year. The addition of the Touring derivative to our arsenal speaks to the overwhelming popularity of this model.”
The BMW M5 Touring shares its BMW M HYBRID V8 powertrain with the proven BMW M5 sedan. The third generation of the BMW M5 Touring combines a powerful V8 engine mated to a BMW eDrive motor to generate a system output of 535 kW and 1,000 Nm of torque. The electric system provides an all-electric range up to 70 km (WLTP) for the added benefit of local emission-free mobility.
Other performance highlights include M Drive Professional, which features Boost Control, M Laptimer and Track View, the M Drivers Package for a top speed of 305 km/h, and the M sport exhaust system. The Touring derivative rolls on M5-specific mixed 20- and 21-inch wheels and tyres.
In South Africa, BMW M5 Touring owners can look forward to the sensation of a newly designed M leather steering wheel and M multifunction seats as part of a comprehensive standard specification offer. M carbon mirror caps, Panorama Glass Roof and rear sunblinds are standard additions compared with the Sedan. The only options on offer are the deletion of the model designation, a trailer tow hitch, M Carbon brakes and brake callipers finished in high gloss black.
Ten exterior colours, including the M5 range’s exclusive Isle of Man Green and Marina Bay Blue, and Storm Bay and Frozen Deep Grey from the BMW Individual palette, are offered. The cabin receives six upholstery possibilities and the option of either M Carbon Fibre or BMW Individual Fineline Dark Oak interior trims.
The recommended retail price for the BMW M5 Touring, including VAT and Motorplan, is R2,795,000.00.
