We've driven the new 717bhp BMW M5 #235

Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel
About this episode

Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel review the new hybrid BMW M5. With 717bhp it's easily the most powerful M5 yet, but at 2435kg it's the heaviest by a distance too. Has BMW M managed to overcome all that weight to make another great M5? Dan and Andrew also discuss Lando Norris's racing efforts in 2024 and talk to McLaren Automotive materials engineer Ella Podmore.
