The hype surrounding the upcoming M5 continues with a new video released by BMW showing the Bavarian firm’s high-performance sedan being tested at the company's Miramas proving grounds in the south of France. Given that the M5 is scheduled to be unveiled at the Frankfurt motor show in September, these are probably the final rounds of testing before production begins.The twin-turbocharged V8-powered sedan is shown in various trials, meant to test both its high-speed handling and its safe maneuverability in wet conditions. We get to see the M5 being driven hard (as it should be) and even get a glimpse of the car's interior, which BMW has kept secret until now. The instrument panel is classic for an M model, with a speedometer on the left that goes all the way up to 330 km/h and a revcounter on the right that stops at 8,000 rpm.
