The G95 BMW X5 M keeps the S68 V8 as a mild hybrid with 600-plus hp, while the electric version starts production in April 2028.
In an ironic twist of fate, the first SUV developed in-house by AMG doesn't have an engine. It combines wild technical specifications with a design that's sure to split opinions.

Four motors, no cylinders, and a grille the standard iX5 never got.
The first X5 M without a combustion engine has been spotted while entering the BMW M Test Centre at the Nürburgring.

The next X5 M won't be electric-only. BMW is said to be developing a mild-hybrid gasoline variant powered by the S68 V8, skipping the PHEV route entirely as it draws cleaner lines across its M lineup.
According to a BMW insider, the "G95" EV will hit the assembly line in April 2028. We believe there will also be a gas version with a big ol' V8 engine.
