The newest BMW 5 Series has been revealed, along with the all-electric i5. What's missing is the high-performance M5. It's clearly close behind, though, as these spy photos show more of the production model. Most notably, it'll be sporting a more aggressive nose, but one that isn't as controversial as some other recent BMWs.

We can see that, like the regular 5 Series variants, the M5 will maintain relatively modest, traditional kidney grilles. Modest at least in comparison to the 4 Series and iX, among others. Underneath the kidneys, the M5 has a sharply angled trapezoidal intake with the wide part at the bottom. There are prominent intakes on either side for aerodynamics, and a fairly pronounced lower spoiler.

Moving to the sides, the M5 adopts new mirrors with in-board extensions like other M models. The fenders look a fair bit wider, and the rocker panels look more extended to match the fenders. The wheels are unique, too, and they have an almost brutalist aesthetic.
