The BMW M5 has long been celebrated for its combination of performance and luxury, making it a benchmark in the high-performance sedan market. However, over the years, a noticeable trend has emerged: the M5 has steadily gained weight with each new generation.
Starting with the original E28 M5, which weighed 3,152 lbs, the car was relatively light by today’s standards. As BMW introduced subsequent models, the weight incrementally increased. The E34 M5 weighed 3,637 lbs, followed by the E39 M5 at 3,736 lbs. This upward trend continued with the E60 M5, which tipped the scales at 3,869.11 lbs.
The F10 M5 marked a significant jump, weighing 4,122 lbs, while the F90 M5 came in slightly lighter at 4,111 lbs. However, the latest generation new M5 has seen a dramatic increase, reaching 5,368.25 lbs.
Several factors contribute to this weight gain, including the addition of more advanced technology, enhanced safety features, and increased comfort amenities. While the added weight can impact agility, BMW has compensated with more powerful engines and sophisticated suspension systems to maintain the M5’s renowned performance. Despite its weight gain, the M5 continues to be a formidable presence on the road, offering an unparalleled driving experience.
