BMW S85

Automotive Engines

The BMW S85B50 was a naturally aspirated V10 petrol engine produced from 2005 to 2010, replacing the S62 V8 in the M5. It was both the first and the only production V10 BMW built, and the first petrol V10 available in a production estate car. Introduced in the E60 M5, it was inspired by BMW earlier Formula One involvement and, unlike most M engines, is unrelated to any regular BMW engine. Its 5.0 litre displacement, 92 millimetre bore and 75.2 millimetre stroke, 12.0:1 compression, ten individual throttle bodies and double-VANOS variable valve timing gave 373 kW at 7,750 rpm and an 8,250 rpm redline, one of the highest specific outputs of any naturally aspirated production car engine. Its engine code opened the 80s series, and the S65 V8 is derived from it.
