2013 BMW M5 F10 with Twin-Turbo V8 Dyno-Tested: Does it Deliver What it Promises?

Manufacturer figures on vehicle performance are not always accurate. That’s why many road test editors prefer to verify the numbers on their own. Some of them even go as far as dyno-testing to see not only if the output figures match those announced by the manufacturer, but also what is the actual power that is transferred to the road and how much is lost on its way from the engine to the wheels.
The first independent dyno test of the brand new 2013 BMW M5 was conducted by PP Performance on a MAHA LPS 3000 dyno and was published by BimmerPost.
Does the twin-turbo V8 powerhouse that nests under the hood of the F10 M5 match the 570HP and 680Nm (502 lb-ft) promised by BMW?
You can check out the video and the full spec sheet after the jump to find out, while we've also added a second clip with said M5 accelerating from 0-300 km/h (0-186 mph).
