The BMW M5 (F10), produced between 2011 and 2016, is considered one of the most innovative and impressive models of its generation. Developed by Albert Biermann and designed by Adrian van Hooydonk, this vehicle seamlessly combines performance and comfort. The F10 M5 marked a significant shift from its predecessor's V10 engine of the E60 to a more powerful and efficient 4.4-liter V8 twin-turbo. This engine delivers an impressive 560 horsepower and a maximum torque of 680 Nm (502 lb-ft), propelling the vehicle from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in just 4.4 seconds.
The BMW M5 (F10) stands out with various technical innovations that make it a standout vehicle in its class. A notable innovation is the introduction of the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (M-DCT), enabling fast and precise gear shifts. The vehicle features various driving modes ranging from comfortable to extremely sporty, and an Electronic Damper Control (EDC) that adapts to driving conditions. Furthermore, the Active M Differential, another technical highlight, ensures optimal traction in all driving situations.
