BMW has announced the pre-launch bookings of the first-ever BMW i5 M60 xDrive in India. The electric sedan will be imported via the CBU route.
The BMW i5 M60 xDrive is based on the eighth generation of the 5 Series. On the outside, the EV features a wider, blanked-out kidney grille with angular headlamps on either side and twin boomerang-shaped LED DRLs. The M60 xDrive version gets a slightly sportier body kit.
Inside, the BMW i5 features a free-standing dual display, integrating a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 14.9-inch touchscreen infotainment screen.
Powering the i5 M60 xDrive are two electric motors that generate 593 BHP and a peak torque of 820 Nm, allowing the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 3.8 seconds. The car can cover 516 km on a single charge (WLTP cycle).
