BMW X5 M by G-Power
With 575 PS and 650 Nm of torque to begin with, the factory-stock BMW X5 M has sufficient grunt
to cope with just about anything. But, the word “sufficient” isn’t one of G-Power’s
favorite words.
This is why the tuner unleashed its
experience on the Bavarian SUV, making it more powerful than a Lamborghini
Aventador.
By using its tuning magic, the G-Power
already squeezed 700 PS and 905 Nm of torque out of the
twin-turbocharged S63 V8 engine powering the sporty 2,403 kg SUV,
but is that really enough? Not with 35 years of engineering experience behind
you.
That’s why G-Power decided that
generating 175 PS over the stock variant should make things more fun,
bringing the total output to an eye-watering 750 PS and 980 Nm of torque. The figures were achieved thanks to a bespoke titanium
exhaust system, larger turbochargers, stainless steel downpipes, and G-Power’s
Bi-Tronik 2 V3 software upgrade.
Against the stopwatch, the boost in
power makes the X5 M blast through the standing quarter mile in 11.5 seconds,
and accelerate beyond the 300 km/h mark. To match the uprated
performance, G-Power fitted the SUV with its own GX6M-RS coilover suspension
and a 11.0x23-inch HURRICANE RR forged alloy wheels shod with 325/25ZR23 tires.
But wait, there’s more. Or less, in this
case. The German tuner acknowledges that not everybody wants to transform their
X5 M into a supercar matching brute, that’s why it offers lesser 650 PS and 700 PS power tune variants.
