BMW M5 debuted less than a year ago, with the reveal taking place at the end of June 2024. Despite this, BMW is already preparing a facelift for its first hybridized M5, and we're not complaining. While its weight was one of the key elements singled out by many for criticism,

The changes are immediately apparent as the M5 adopts a Neue Klasse-inspired front fascia with a shorter grille that flows into new headlights. They’re joined by a new front bumper, which gains a middle intake as well as a revamped lower opening. The latter sports a central V-shape, which will presumably echo the one found on the M2.

The curb weight of the seventh-generation BMW M5 has been a topic of debate since its debut last summer. At 5,390 pounds for the sedan and 5,530 pounds for the wagon, the new G90 M5 is significantly heavier than its predecessor.

Since the current G60-generation 5 Series (G90 for the M5) went on sale in late 2023, BMW has been teasing its upcoming Neue Klasse series, which will kick off later this year with a production version of the Vision Neue Klasse X concept and in essence an iX3-replacement.

BMW is already preparing to facelift its M5 super sedan, with a restyled example spotted testing in camouflage.

BMW unveiled the current M5 only last summer, but our spy photographers have already spotted an updated model.
