Earlier this week, BMW officially introduced us to the lightly refreshed for the 2021 model year,  M5 super sedan. And as usual, every time we get a new M5, the internet ponders if BMW should build a rival to the Audi RS6 Avant and Mercedes-AMG E63 Estate.

Unfortunately, that is not going to happen, as the Bavarian automaker hasn’t offered  such a car since the V10-powered E60/E61 generation, though there have been several attempts from petrol heads over the years to turn regular 5-Series Touring models into unofficial M5 wagons.

Still, if you’re wondering what an F90-based M5 station wagon could look like, enter the digital world of XTomi Design. The illustration portrays the obvious: a 2021 M5 with a long roof and more space behind the rear seats, as everything else stays true to the real super sedan, including the oh-so lightly restyled face and new wheels. Seeing it here, we can’t say we’re missing out on much compared to the aggressive Audi RS6 Avant or the more elegant Mercedes-AMG E63, which was just presented in facelifted form.

The M5 (sedan) you can actually buy

The 2021 M5 will launch in regular and Competition variants this summer, with pricing starting at $103,500 for the former and $111,100 for the latter, excluding a $995 destination charge.

Like the outgoing model, the standard version comes with 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 producing 592 HP (600 PS / 441 kW) and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque, directed to both axles through an eight-speed automatic transmission. The M5 Competition features the same rear-biased all-wheel drive system, tuned by the M division, but the V8 delivers 616 HP (625 PS / 460 kW). The more agile version does the 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in 3.3 seconds, or 0.1 second faster than the standard M5.
