It's a BMW estate head-to-head!
We've got our hands on the BMW M3 CS Touring, and it's taking on Mat's long-lasting BMW M5 Touring test cars and truck!
The concern is, how different are these two long-bodied BMWs? Let's have a look at the statistics …
The BMW M5 Touring houses a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8, combined with an electrical motor. The 2 integrate to produce 727hp and 1,000 Nm, and this power is sent to all 4 wheels through an 8-speed automatic gearbox. All in it costs from โค 116,160, and it's exceptionally heavy, tipping the scales at 2,475 kg!
Then we concern the M3 CS Touring. Under the bonnet, it 'only' has a 3-litre twin-turbo straight-six, and this produces 550hp and 650Nm. Power is as soon as again sent out to all 4 wheels via an 8-speed automated gearbox, and it costs nearly the same as the M5, costing โค 120,600. However, it's a great deal lighter than the M5, weighing in at 1,850 kg.
So the M5 has more power, and an electrical motor – but it weighs almost 650kg more than the M3! Can you pick a winner? There's only one way to find out for sure … LET'S RACE!
