The next-gen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/10\/26\/bmw-m5-hybrid-interior-spied\/\">BMW M5<\/a> might be the first ever hybrid M5 but that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s going soft.

For instance, up front, you can see a lot of its new grille design. The entire shape and outline of the kidney grille is visible through the camo, showing off a much smaller, simpler grille style than other modern BMWs. The inserts are also different now, with simple horizontal bars inside, which create more negative space that will provide more airflow but also gobs of radiator-busting rocks.<\/p>\n<p>The lower front bumper is also on display, with new air intakes. The center two intakes are massive, while there are smaller, seemingly brake cooling ducts flanking the sides. You can also see the flared front wheel arches, an M Division design staple. Although, this M5 will feature subtler arches than some other M cars, similar to the previous F90-gen M5. The rears barely look flared at all.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_438645\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-438645\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2.jpg\"><noscript><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-438645\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-830x554.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M5 Spy Photos 2 830x554\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-1535x1024.jpg 1535w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2.jpg 1619w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of BMW M5 Spy Photos 2 830x554\"\/><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-medium wp-image-438645\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20554%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-830x554.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M5 Spy Photos 2 830x554\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-1535x1024.jpg 1535w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-2.jpg 1619w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of BMW M5 Spy Photos 2 830x554\"\/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-438645\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo provided by instagram.com\/wilcoblok<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Out back, you can see the M5\u2019s quad exhausts, another M Division design staple.

The 2024 BMW M5\u00a0will get a hybrid V8 powertrain, packing the brand\u2019s new S68 engine and at least one electric motor. The combined power output will be around 650 horsepower. It\u2019s the same hybrid V8 setup as the BMW XM, which makes 644 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque. The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/10\/24\/bmw-xm-wild-body-kit-rendering\/\"> BMW XM<\/a> will have more powerful versions, some with up to 750 horsepower, so it will be interesting to see if the M5 will get more potent versions as well.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_438646\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-438646\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-438646\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-830x554.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M5 Spy Photos 3 830x554\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-1535x1024.jpg 1535w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3.jpg 1619w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of BMW M5 Spy Photos 3 830x554\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload size-medium wp-image-438646\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20554%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-830x554.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M5 Spy Photos 3 830x554\" width=\"830\" height=\"554\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-1535x1024.jpg 1535w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/BMW-M5-Spy-Photos-3.jpg 1619w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of BMW M5 Spy Photos 3 830x554\"\/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-438646\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo provided by instagram.com\/wilcoblok<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Of course, the next M5 will be all-wheel drive.
