BMW S85 Engine For Sale

The BMW S85 is a naturally aspirated V10 petrol engine which replaced the BMW S62 V8 engine in the M5 model and was produced from 2005–2009. It was both BMW’s first and only production V10 engine, and the first petrol V10 engine to be available in a production sedan (saloon).

Introduced in the E60 M5, the S85 was inspired by BMW’s previous Formula One involvement. Unlike most other BMW M engines, the S85 is not related to a regular production BMW engine.

The BMW S65 V8 engine (used in the E92 M3) is based on the S85.
