It dons optional carbon ceramic brakes \u2014 painted their signature gold shade \u2014 peeking out behind optional bi-color Style 952M wheels. The standard blacked out mirrors, roof, spoiler, and grille do a good job of providing the additional contrast needed to pull of this kind of paint.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-503877\" title=\"BMW M5 TOURING SEPIA BROWN 10\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M5 TOURING SEPIA BROWN 10\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-503877\" title=\"BMW M5 TOURING SEPIA BROWN 10\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20553%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M5 TOURING SEPIA BROWN 10\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/bmw-m5-touring-sepia-brown-10.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Further restraint \u2014 and tasteful sensibility \u2014 is evident when you notice the car wears a simple Silverstone interior. Straying from some of the safer colors and venturing into more nuanced interior choices like the Dark Violet or Deep Lagoon interior could have had, frankly, disastrous results. Other than a red 12o\u2019clock marker on the steering wheel, the interior is almost sterile in its appearance.

What\u2019s <em>not<\/em> up for debate is that it\u2019s the most powerful M5 ever. The twin-turbocharged V8 under the hood \u2014 the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/04\/15\/bmw-s68-m-division-engine\/\">S68 engine<\/a> \u2014 joins forces with a battery and motor setup that produces a combined 717 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. BMW claims the longroof will achieve a zero to 60 mph time of 3.5 seconds. Unfortunately, we didn\u2019t get to test that theory when we got behind the wheel for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2024\/11\/05\/2025-bmw-m5-touring-first-drive-review\/\">first drive of the M5 Touring<\/a>.
