Caralogy Methodology
Performance (0-100, top speed) simulated by the Caralogy physics engine (SCx, Crr, real torque curves). Motorway consumption values estimated from the manufacturer WLTP cycle.

Among the 15 grand tourers, the M5 ranks (mid-table) in acceleration. Caralogy simulates its real-world performance: motorway simulation, performance simulation and consumption simulation.
Tailored to this vehicle?
Demanding drivers: 5th of 15 in Power-to-weight (317 hp/t). 5th of 15 in Power-to-weight (317 hp/t).
Frequent urban trips with stop-and-go. At 11,3 L/100 km on the combined cycle, consumption rises in the city without electric assistance. An HEV or PHEV would be more economical for this use profile.
If the priority is 0–100 km/h, the BMW M5 CS (1st with 3.0 s) takes the lead. If the priority is Top speed, the BMW M5 CS (1st with 305 km/h) takes the lead.
Acceleration: 3.4 s 0-100 (6th of 15 in 0–100 km/h)
In pure acceleration, the M5 ranks 6th of 15 in 0–100 km/h, 0.4 s off the reference BMW M5 CS (3.0 s).
Top speed: 250 km/h (9th of 15 in Top speed)
Top speed of 250 km/h. The segment reference reaches 305 km/h.

BMW M5: what you need to know
Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.
Where does the M5 rank in its segment?
Among the 15 grand tourers 2019–2023, the M5 ranks 6th of 15 in 0–100 km/h (3.4 s, behind the BMW M5 CS), 9th of 15 in Top speed (250 km/h, behind the BMW M5 CS), 5th of 15 in Power-to-weight (317 hp/t, behind the BMW M5 CS).
How much does the M5 cost to run?
Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.
Why not a BMW M5 CS instead?
The BMW M5 CS leads in 0–100 km/h (3.0 s vs 3.4 s). The choice depends on your priorities: check the M5 vs BMW M5 CS duel for a detailed comparison.
How does Caralogy calculate its figures?
Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
