2025 BMW M5 Horsepower: 717-hp G90 Hybrid Explained
2025 BMW M5 Horsepower: 717-hp G90 Hybrid Explained with application chart, generation boundaries, verification steps and official manufacturer lookup.
BMW rates the 2025 G90 M5 sedan at 717 hp and 738 lb-ft of combined system output from its M Hybrid powertrain.
BMW rates the 2025 G90 M5 sedan at 717 hp and 738 lb-ft of combined system output from its M Hybrid powertrain.
These are U.S.-market G90 M5 system ratings, not the combustion engine's standalone output and not a carryover F90 Competition or CS figure. The plug-in hybrid combines a 4.4L twin-turbo V8 with an electric motor through an eight-speed automatic and M xDrive.
BMW lists maximum power from 5,600–6,500 rpm and peak system torque from 1,800–5,400 rpm. The battery need not show usable electric range for maximum power under normal operating conditions because the system preserves and replenishes an energy buffer, but temperature, drive mode and protection limits can still affect delivered performance.

BMW lists maximum power from 5,600–6,500 rpm and peak system torque from 1,800–5,400 rpm. The battery need not show usable electric range for maximum power under normal operating conditions because the system preserves and replenishes an energy buffer, but temperature, drive mode and protection limits can still affect delivered performance.
System output is not V8-only output
The 717-hp number belongs to the complete M Hybrid system. Quoting it as the 4.4L V8's standalone rating would erase the electric motor's contribution and make comparisons with earlier non-hybrid M5 generations inaccurate.
BMW similarly publishes 738 lb-ft as system torque. Power delivery depends on coordinated combustion-engine, motor, battery, transmission and M xDrive operation rather than one engine dyno curve alone.
How the G90 differs from the F90
The prior F90 used a non-hybrid twin-turbo V8 and appeared in standard, Competition and CS ratings. The G90 adds plug-in hybrid hardware, substantially changes vehicle mass and should be compared as a new architecture rather than a simple horsepower update.
Use BMW's market-specific technical table because horsepower units, equipment and model designation can differ outside the United States. Chassis-dyno results are also not factory crankshaft/system ratings.
