Caralogy Analysis · tailored to this vehicle

Caralogy Verdict

Suitable for

Demanding drivers: 1st of 15 in 0–100 km/h (3.0 s), 2nd of 15 in Top speed (305 km/h), 1st of 15 in Power-to-weight (348 hp/t). 1st of 15 in 0–100 km/h (3.0 s), 2nd of 15 in Top speed (305 km/h), 1st of 15 in Power-to-weight (348 hp/t).

Less suitable for

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.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Top speed, the Audi RS6 Performance Avant (1st with 305 km/h) takes the lead.

Acceleration: 3.0 s 0-100 (1st of 15 in 0–100 km/h)

In pure acceleration, the M5 CS ranks 1st of 15 in 0–100 km/h, 0.0 s off the reference Bmw M5 CS (3.0 s).

Top speed: 305 km/h (2nd of 15 in Top speed)

Top speed of 305 km/h. The segment reference reaches 305 km/h.

Frequently asked questions

BMW M5 CS: 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 CS rank in its segment?#

Among the 15 grand tourers 2019–2023, the M5 CS ranks 1st of 15 in 0–100 km/h (3.0 s, behind the Bmw M5 CS), 2nd of 15 in Top speed (305 km/h, behind the Audi RS6 Performance Avant), 1st of 15 in Power-to-weight (348 hp/t, behind the Bmw M5 CS).

How much does the M5 CS cost to run?#

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

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.
