BMW M5 F90

The F90 is the BMW M5 generation our specification records cover for US model years 2018–2023. Across that run EPA certified 12 versions of it for sale in America, under 5 trim names. It was sold as a sedan.

Dimensions are the figures the panel above does not carry. The F90 measures 195.3 in · 4,961 mm long, sits on a wheelbase of 117.3 in · 2,979 mm and weighs 4,370 lb · 1,982 kg. Length and wheelbase come from Transport Canada, which measures every vehicle sold in North America; curb weight from the same source.

The generation did not stand still: the strongest version rose from 599 hp in 2018 to 617 hp in 2023. An F90 from the first model year and one from the last are not the same proposition, which is worth remembering when a listing gives only the chassis code.

Set against the F10 that preceded it, the F90 is 2.4 inches longer at the shortest version. That figure is taken from the lightest and shortest version we hold for each, so it compares like with like rather than setting a base car against a loaded one.

Every version we hold under this code is all-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.

Gaps are left as gaps. We do not hold curb weight for 6 of the 12 and horsepower for 5, because Transport Canada does not publish a weight for every model and EPA began recording certified output usefully only in the late 1990s. A dash on this site means the figure is not in a source we can name, never that it is roughly the same as the row above.
