For as long as we can remember, BMW has used the slogan "The Ultimate Driving Machine" to advertise its vehicles. And for many years, we've seen the brand demonstrate that excellence in engineering in the internal combustion engine world.
But can that phrase transfer to the EV world? This week, we've been putting the highest-spec BMW i5 through its paces - the 2024 BMW i5 M60 - and while we weren't so impressed with the BMW i4 we drove a few years ago, this all-electric Sedan has very little compromise while also providing plenty of things to keep you engaged on the drive.
