Last year BMW allowed the press to tinker around with this G30 BEV prototype which is as powerful/Fast as the F90 M5.

I'd actually love to see an M5 with a smaller engine, perhaps an inline-6, just like the E28 and E34. BMW V8's just don't do it for me, their inline-6 is their bread and butter for good reason, for V8's I'd got to AMG.
