Most controversial aspect of the G90 M5...

What do you guys think about the move to hybrid ?

Honestly, it is my favorite part and one of the largest reason of selling my RS6.

I have a relatively short commute of about 7 miles each way, so the PHEV aspect will allow me to do my entire commute without having to go to the gas station. I wish there were a little more range, but it should cover my commuting needs.

Tech is way more advanced than the Audi
Comfort the same
More rear biased drive also specially in the snow the tail wags so easily !
Electric motor really fills in the turbo lag of the Audi too !

Lol I remember when BMW made E34 540i, after M5 already been out for a while, and it was better performing 5er, but people was buthurt cuz “it isn’t a true m5”
But that 540 led to a E39 with S62, and it is to this day one of the best cars out there.
Same with G90, it’s gonna take some time for people to get this car, and then it’ll be a hit.

25% of my battery usage is pre conditioning to warm up the car these days with the cold weather and the range is good enough for work commute so it's a good improvement on daily usability. Obviously it has some drawbacks as well such as the weight but i'd say it's rather well managed in this car.
