2023/24 M5/M550 Hybrids?

Is this the end of 100% ICE (internal combustion engine) production?

I hope they keep the same twin turbo V8 configuration we have now. The added electric (torque) boost will be nice, but will also add a bunch of weight as well. I just hope it sounds like a beast when the right foot is planted.

I also wonder if the 540's will all be hybrids. I really hope there are still some 100% ICE engines for at least one more model generation.
