If the M division is making that engine then that could be the replacement for the s63tu. So if they do indeed change out the engine then that m5 might be the G30...

Mercedes has done that with their cars. Bmw has since copied their approach to utilizing a single engine across multiple platforms but never have they introduced a new engine within the same generation. This would be the first time for an M model. And the continuation for diluting the M brand continues!!!
Nope they are giving Jag the N63tu and S63 Tu for their cars . So next generation M cars and Jag performance cars will likely have the same exact S63 Tu V8 engine .
