BMW asks Canadians to express their support in bringing the M5 Touring to Canada for the first time.

Richmond Hill, ON.  BMW Canada is asking Canadians a very simple question: "Should we?”

Speculation around the availability of the BMW M5 Touring across North America has been a popular topic amongst BMW fans, and especially of interest to BMW M and Touring enthusiasts in recent months. BMW Canada has taken notice of this.

Now, through a recently launched campaign, BMW Canada is soliciting feedback from Canadians related to their affection for the BMW M5 Touring and encouraging them to support bringing the vehicle to the Canadian market for the very first time.

Canadians can visit the Leave Your Mark landing page to ensure their voice is heard. Additionally, BMW Canada encourages Canadians to follow the BMW Canada Instagram account, as well as engage with and share campaign creative in order to gauge potential customer interest.

“We’ve received questions from our customers and seen the discussions about the M5 Touring online and wanted to create a platform to gather consumer sentiment and feedback. We’re encouraging Canadians to visit the Leave Your Mark campaign page and share whether they think BMW Canada should bring the vehicle to the Canadian market,” said Jonathan Thomson, Director of Brand Management at BMW Group Canada.

For almost 40 years, the BMW M5 has been the benchmark for driving dynamics, agility and precision in the high-performance sedan and touring segment. Evolutionary progress, development know-how from racing and pioneering innovations in the areas of powertrain, suspension, chassis tuning and aerodynamics have shaped the history of the M5 and BMW as a whole.

While the M5 Sedan has long been succesful in Canada, the Touring version of the vehicle has never been retailed in Canada.
