Curb weights sourced from the NHTSA Canadian Vehicle Specifications database and recorded per body style, with fluids and a full fuel tank but no occupants or cargo.

How the figure moved since 2015

The lightest 2015 record is 3,814 lbs; the lightest 2026 record is 4,158 lbs — 344 lbs heavier (9.0%).

At the top of the range the 2026 file reaches 5,622 lbs against 4,969 lbs in 2015, a 653 lbs increase — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.

Against the rest of the midsize cars class

Ranked on the lightest configuration of each nameplate, the 5 Series is 21 of 44 in Midsize Cars, 139 lbs below the 3,843 lbs median and lighter than 23 of its peers.

Where the mass sits: 50/50

NHTSA records a 50/50 distribution, so the 4,158 lbs splits to roughly 2,079 lbs on the front axle and 2,079 lbs on the rear.

The two axles are not the same width either: 63.8 in of track at the front against 65.4 in at the rear, 1.6 in narrower in front.

The - M5 Touring 4dr Wagon is a different vehicle on the scales

The - M5 Touring 4dr Wagon is not a trim level on the same chassis. Its front track measures 66.1 in against 64.6 in on the standard body — 1.6 in wider — and the body is 77.6 in across.

Within that wide-track group the spread is 88 lbs: - M5 4dr Sedan at 5,534 lbs, - M5 Touring 4dr Wagon at 5,622 lbs.
