X5 M Typhoon S based on the BMW X5 M

Since its premiere, the BMW X5 M has been considered the first SUV with the dynamics of a standard car, a combination of practicality and performance. It is a powerful car that has always attracted attention, especially from tuners who think they can make it better. One of them is G-Power which revealed its latest work based on this model, the X5 M Typhoon S.

The X5 M Typhoon S is powered by a 4.4-liter V8 engine with 800 hp (588 kW). That’s significantly more power than the standard X5 M model, which has 617 hp (454 kW) and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque. The equipment package includes a new stainless steel exhaust system, G-Power downpipe and carbon-coated tailpipes, and the car also received larger turbochargers.

In addition to more power, G-Power also equipped the car with a special body kit consisting of nine carbon aerodynamic parts that includes a new spoiler, wheel arch extensions, side skirts, rear diffuser and rear spoiler. There is also a height-adjustable suspension to lower the car by 40 mm at the front and 45 mm at the rear. There’s also a set of 23-inch Hurricane wheels wrapped in 315/25 R23 tires.

Inside, G-Power hasn’t changed anything. The dark interior has been retained, adorned with comfortable black seats, which will provide driving pleasure even on long distances.
