The cars are also available with Sapphire Black metallic paint and green accents. Each model gets the ‘100 Years’ logo, ‘Nrburgring since 1927’ wording and graphics depicting the famous circuit.

The cabins feature black interiors with contrasting green and white stitching, along with edition-specific door sills.

The M5 models get an M steering wheel featuring the same anniversary design theme.

The BMW M5 Touring is the most significant addition to the India line-up, marking the first time the performance estate will be sold in the country. The Touring combines the M5's high-performance credentials with a more practical estate body style and is aimed at combining everyday usability with long-distance touring ability.

The M5 Touring uses BMW's M HYBRID powertrain, comprising a 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 paired with an electric motor. In standard form, the system produces 727bhp and 1,000Nm of torque, with power sent to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic gearbox. BMW claims a 0-100kph time of 3.6 seconds, while the top speed is electronically limited to 250kph.

For the anniversary edition, the M5 Touring gets a steel roof with the special Nrburgring-inspired stripe design, along with the other edition-specific exterior and interior details.BMW M2, M3, M4 and M5 also part of the collection

The Nrburgring, established in 1927, stretches 20.8km and features more than 150 corners and significant elevation changes. BMW says it has recorded 21 overall victories at the Nrburgring 24 Hours, making it the event's most successful manufacturer.
