BMW Group Plant Dingolfing has been producing vehicles since 1973, amassing some impressive production statistics for the brand. Covering over 2.8 million square meters (over one square mile), a staggering team of 19,400 employees and apprentices build an average of 1500 vehicles across six model lines – daily.
Four long months after the start of production for the BMW M5 Sedan, production of the new BMW M5 Touring begins at BMW Group Plant Dingolfing. The new model combines exceptional driving dynamics with versatile space for everyday life, leisure, and travel.
It is the third current BMW M vehicle to feature an M HYBRID drive train in which a high-rpm V8 powertrain is complemented by an e-drive with extremely responsive power development. Together, the two engines deliver a peak performance of 535 kW/727 hp and a maximum torque of 1,000 Nm.

“With the BMW M5 Touring, the new BMW 5 Series family ‘made in Dingolfing’ is complete,” says Plant Director Christoph Schröder. “We can now offer customers of our core model series worldwide a unique variety of drive technologies and body variants.”

With the addition of the new model, the location also continues to expand its production of BMW M high-performance cars. Alongside the BMW M4 Coupé and Convertible, the BMW M8 Coupé, Convertible, and Gran Coupé and the BMW M5 Sedan, the new BMW M5 Touring is the seventh M derivative to come off the Dingolfing production line. BMW M models account for around six percent of Dingolfing’s total production.
