Summary of "New BMW M5 Revealed!"
The new BMW M5 is a plug-in hybrid with a 4.4L twin-turbo V8 engine and an electric motor, producing a total system power output of 727 horsepower and 1,000 Nm of torque.

Overall, the new BMW M5 offers impressive performance and technology, but the added weight may impact its driving experience compared to previous models.
