The sedan also features a 665-watt Bowers & Wilkins sound system, Alexa, among others.
New BMW Car Can Reach 230 km/h
The BMW i5 M60 comes equipped with a 601-horsepower engine and 820 Nm of torque. According to the automaker, it can go from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 230 km/h, electronically limited.
The BMW has equipped the electric i5 M60 with an 81.2 kWh battery, enabling a range of 391 km in the PBVE cycle. According to the German brand, in a fast charge, it is possible to go from 10% to 80% in 31 minutes. With a 22 kW wallbox, the charge takes 4 hours.
The new BMW sedan will be sold in the i5 M60 version with ten color options: Alpine White, Sapphire Black, Carbon Black, Mineral White, Sophisto Grey, Phytonic Blue, Brooklyn Grey, Oxide Grey, Cape York Green, and Fire Red, as well as three interior finish options in Black Merino Leather, Cooper, and Silverstone.
What is it Like to Drive the New BMW i5 M60?
It’s not just about having 600 horsepower; responsibility is necessary to harness that power and help the driver maintain control of the machine, even when the foot presses down on the accelerator. And in this, the BMW i5 M60 is extremely competent.
And more: all this without sacrificing comfort while driving on the poor asphalt of much of Brazil’s streets. This is due to the well-calibrated air suspension, which ensures a great balance across different driving modes.
Regeneration is set through the touchscreen: in addition to adaptive regeneration, there are high, medium, and low levels. In normal use, the adaptive option performs well and can anticipate traffic conditions to optimize efficiency. It’s worth mentioning that the driving assistant operates precisely and without being intrusive: it’s always nearby but does not disturb the driver with sudden interventions, which is quite pleasing.
