BMW TX5 M60 Sport Truck Rendering Imagines Single-Cab

A social-media artist has published an unofficial CGI rendering that applies BMW's new G65 X5 Neue Klasse styling to a single-cab sport truck concept labeled the TX5 M60, using a Ford F-150 template as the starting point.

G65 X5 lineup, architecture and U.S. availability

The G65 iteration of the BMW X5, introduced for the 2027 model year in Europe, North America and China, succeeds the G05 and continues to use BMW's Cluster Architecture (CLAR) platform in an extensively revised form. BMW says the architecture supports five distinct powertrain families:

• Gasoline
• Diesel
• Plug-in hybrid
• Battery-electric
• Fuel-cell electric

The G65 features Neue Klasse-inspired styling inside and out. Production remains in the United States at BMW Plant Spartanburg in South Carolina. For the U.S. market BMW currently lists only the 2027 X5 40 xDrive, starting at $72,100, excluding destination. That model uses BMW's 3.0-liter M TwinPower Turbo inline-six with xDrive all-wheel drive, rated at 394 hp, EPA combined 28 MPG and a 0-60 mph time of 5.1 seconds.

BMW plans additional variants, including a V8-powered X5 M60 xDrive for North America that is described as the regional counterpart to the European X5 M60e xDrive high-performance plug-in hybrid. BMW or reports indicate the M60 will use an enhanced S68 twin-turbo 4.4-liter V8 producing in excess of 600 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. According to industry rumors the V8 will enter U.S. production next spring and could arrive at dealers as a late 2027 model year or 2028 model year vehicle, with an estimated starting MSRP around $95,000.

jlord8's TX5 M60 single-cab sport truck rendering

The rendering was created by Jim, a virtual artist who posts as 'jlord8' on social media and is known for CGI illustrations of speculative vehicles. His latest unofficial design imagines a BMW-branded TX5 M60 luxury single-cab sport truck. The artist used the Ford F-150 as the underlying form before applying the G65 X5's Neue Klasse front-end treatment and BMW design cues.

The image series is presented as a purely hypothetical exercise and is not an announcement from BMW. The project highlights how BMW styling might be adapted to a full-size single-cab truck silhouette but does not indicate manufacturer intent or planned production.
