The M5 F10 will be available with ceramic brakes, a first for a production model BMW. Ceramic brakes offer great stopping power, and the ravages of time, produce less brake dust, and are very light. What kind of brakes are also used for models like the Porsche GT2 and Nissan GT-R.
Engine
For the next M5, BMW will use the same engine in the BMW X6 M, but the bi-turbo 4.4-liter V8 that makes 555 hp and 680 Nm of torque in the BMW X6 M is rumored to be in capable of delivering 578 hp in the BMW M5.

It accelerates from 0 to 62mph in 4.4 seconds and reach a limited speed of 155 mph or 188 mph with the option "Driver Package M".
BMW has announced that the BMW M5 is finally revealed to the Motor Show in Shanghai, but as a concept, the new BMW 6 Series Coupé will also be raised to the same salon. A production version will be revealed in September at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
Next BMW M5 will be on models like the Jaguar XF-R, Cadillac CTS-V, and Audi S6.
If the rumors about the M5 are true, and it will really deliver 578 hp, then the M5 will be the most powerful model and its competitors have much to fear.
On the other hand, the XF-R also benefits. It is more elegant and luxurious with a good dose of aggression in its design. It is powered by a 5.0-liter V8 compressor that pumps 510 hp.
The Cadillac CTS-V has also gained much ground in the U.S. market, and with good reason. For one thing, it's cheap compared to other models - it starts at $ 64,290, and it also has a very impressive V8 engine of 6.2 liters with an output of 556 hp and 551 lb-ft of torque .
