It has only been a few weeks ago since AC Schnitzer thrown a few after-marked parts on the BMW X3 M50, and now it is ready to show its setting to a fat-like M-car. The German tuner edited his magic on the new M5 in limousines and car flavors. A power upgrade is in the works, but in the meantime the G90 and G99 receive a strong body kit.
Not that the M5 had to look angry, but AC Schnitzer changed almost every corner of the car. The front now has a considerable splitter and side wings that halve the air intake. Along the profile, pronounced side skirts give the car more muscles, while both versions receive a roof spoiler. Choose the limousine and you will also receive a spoiler lip on the trunk lid.
The bikes were not neglected either. The factory alloys have made space for 21-inch forged sets, which are available either in a glossy black or in a clear, painted finish coated by ceramic. The driving height was also reduced by 20 millimeters (almost 0.8 inches) on both axes to get a more aggressive attitude.
As for the previously mentioned drive train upgrade, AC Schnitzer claims that the electrified V8 to 800 hp can increase an 83 hp bodies over the standard M5. While the tuner did not describe in detail how to get more performance out of the plug-in hybrid setup, he is probably concentrating on the petrol engine. As a reference, the 4.4-liter twin turbo V8 in the Stock Car makes 577 hp alone.
Nach straps that would bring the S68 to a clean 660 hp. Torque numbers were not announced, but an increase in the 750 Newton meters (553 pound foot) of the standard engine seems likely. To add performance, AC Schnitzer offers a new stainless steel exhaust system with 110 mm quad tips, which are referred to in the so-called “carbon sport”.
Change the M5 does not necessarily have to go through a tuner. BMW offers a comprehensive selection of M -performance parts for both the sedan and the car, so you can do your M5 even more … M. of course at a price.
