Only three months after production started at BMW Group's Dingolfing plant in Germany, the 2024 BMW i5 electric executive sedan is arriving at US dealerships. The first-ever battery-electric BMW 5 Series, along with its ICE-powered counterparts, will reach dealers in the United States starting October 28.
Customers can also opt for the BMW i5 M60, which features a dual-motor AWD powertrain delivering a total of 593 hp and 586 lb-ft of torque – or 605 lb-ft for brief periods of time with the M Sport Boost or M Launch Control functions activated. The BMW i5 M60 does 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds and its top speed is electronically limited to 130 mph. This range-topping variant features the same 84.3-kWh battery pack, but in this case the range drops to 256 miles.
