The German automaker has been working hard for sometime now on the design of the new M5, and is now in the final stages of testing. It is all well and good giving the car more power to play with, but you need to make certain that all four of those 20-inch wheels can stay on the grey stuff.

The previous version used the 507hp V10 power unit, this year BMW decided to go with an F1 kind of approach and dropped it to a V8. However, not one to compromise on power those clever German’s decided to install a twin-turbocharger in there for good measure. The end result is 552 horsepower and an increased torque of 383 pound-feet to 501 lb-ft, which is much more than the previous model.

We are not certain of its top speed yet – although it will be limited in most countries. However, 0-60 time will be the same for all, and that is 4.4 seconds – not bad when you consider that it is not the lightest kid on the block. So what about the cost, well F10 Forums suggests that it will be around the €100,000 on its home soil, but we do not believe that the $144,000 conversation will stick in the U.S. One would expect this to be a little lower, if they have any hope of competing with those muscles cars that is.

Looking at the video that we have embedded for you below Hyundai is not giving much away, as they have kept things very dark. We can tell right away that the automaker has not spent much on making the video – seems like they have gone for the subtle / intriguing approach instead.

The video starts off very dark and then you will be met with a number of captions at the bottom, such as fuel-economy and those sexy blue LED lights at the front. Engadget has updated their post, as two readers have managed to work on a still taken from the video and made them much lighter, this allows us to see the outline of the Hyundai Veloster.

Drew Johnson from Left lane News has been looking at some of the facts and figures of the Veloster, and we were interested to learn that it will be not only cheaper than the Genesis coupe, but more fuel efficient as well. With just 18 days and 2 hours to go, we are sure that you can hold off until then, which is when we will be able to offer you more details.
