2025 BMW i5 M60: an EV that makes you want to drive and drive

67% Informative
The 2025 BMW i5 M60 xDrive has 593 hp (442 kW) and 586 lb-ft (795 Nm) from a pair of electrically excited synchronous motors fed by its 84.3 kWh (useable) battery pack.
There's now a PHEV M5 that exceeds this battery EV in both performance and MSRP.
With a 060 time of 3.7 seconds and a starting price of $ 84,100$95,395 as configured, the i5 is still pretty superlative.
