BMW M5 F10

The F10 is the BMW M5 generation our specification records cover for US model years 2013–2016. Across that run EPA certified 8 versions of it for sale in America, under one trim name. It was sold as a sedan.

Dimensions are the figures the panel above does not carry. The F10 measures 192.9 in · 4,900 mm to 193.3 in · 4,910 mm long, sits on a wheelbase of 116.5 in · 2,959 mm to 116.9 in · 2,969 mm and weighs 4,365 lb · 1,980 kg to 4,387 lb · 1,990 kg. Length and wheelbase come from Transport Canada, which measures every vehicle sold in North America; curb weight from the same source.

Set against the E60/E61 that preceded it, the F10 is 1.6 inches longer at the shortest version and 353 lb · 160 kg heavier at the lightest. Both figures are taken from the lightest and shortest version we hold for each, so they compare like with like rather than setting a base car against a loaded one.

Every version we hold under this code is rear-wheel drive. That matters on the used market more than it looks: which axles are driven changes the weight, the service list and the price, and the badge does not always say which you are looking at.
