Speaking of the X range, there is one particular model that the German tuning firm has not managed to work its magic on, and that is the brand-new 2019 X4 in its second-generation (G02). And that because the model hit world premiere in February.

As we can depict from the media gallery below, the all-new 2019 BMW X4 is extremely appealing with the new design language, so adding just a handful of new pieces wouldn`t spoil its gorgeous factory looks; and we all know that AC Schnitzer can really break the boundaries with their outrageous and sometimes out of the ordinary body kits.

So, here we have a light aero treatment, increased handling characteristics and some minor adjustments inside the cabin. To start with the exterior, we should be able to notice the new two-part front spoiler lip underneath the bumper, while the rear received a fascia insert with new tailpipes and sport catalysts. Also, the tailpipes are connected to downpipes, all increasing the car`s stance and looks.

To give it a more aggressive look, the engineers from AC Schnitzer have also replaced the factory wheels with custom ones. For that part, customers can choose between 19- and 20-inch sizes for the brand-new AC1 alloy wheels available in anthracite or bi-color finish. Along with the new wheels come the new suspension system which reduces the car`s height up to 25 millimeters. And lowering it to the ground means better stability on the streets, especially while cruising at high-speeds, or tackling tight corners.

Inside, the cabin has been refined for a sportier look, receiving a handful of aluminum tweaks, sport pedals, or special key holders. As for technology, it includes the company`s latest i-drive system touch controller and much more.

No special power programs have been announced for the new X4 yet. This means that the 2019 BMW X4 in its second-generation, retains the same engine lineup. There are no less than three petrol burners and three diesel burners, with power between 184 HP – 360 HP. There is also the top of the line X4 M40i and X4 M40d, in both petrol and diesel disguises, with greater power and enhanced with advanced systems such as Performance Control, Adaptive M suspensions, Variable Sport Steering or M Sport differential and M Sport brakes.

The media gallery below better describes the tuner`s new take on the 2019 BMW X4. Enjoy and don’t forget to share your opinions with us!

Dahler is commonly known for its programs on plenty of models from German manufacturers like Audi, Mercedes-Benz or Porsche, yet it recently turned its attention towards BMW customizations. Well, not quite recently…as for the past five years or so.

Visually, the striking thing that I have first noticed was the new set of wheels. It involves much larger wheels, sized 9 x 21-inch and 10.5 x 21-inch front and rear, respectively. The wheels go swell with the bespoke sport suspension system with shock absorbers, which lowers the SUVs ride height and provide greater stance and increased grip. The shock absorbers also make it “make it sporty but never hard.”

Announcing a power increase and a wilder engine roar is the in-house built Dahler stainless steel exhaust system with no less than four tailpipes. It also enhances the SUV`s impressive stance and aggressive look.

Performance wise, the stock BMW X4 M40i is powered by a 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine, developing 350 PS and 500 Nm of torque. However, with the tuner`s ECU remapping and new turbos, the M40i is now capable to churn out 420 PS and 630 Nm of torque, resulting an increase of 60 PS and 130 Nm of torque.

There is also good news for those owning the top of the line X4 M40d, the tuner also offering a tuning offer. The same stock engine puts it to 326 PS and 680 Nm of torque. Now, with the new power upgrade, the topper got no less than 380 PS and 780 Nm of torque, which is quite impressive. We would have loved hearing about the performance figures it the straight line, but for the moment, the tuner chose not to reveal that for the moment. Hopefully we get updates pretty soon!

Until then, you can admire the gorgeous BMW X4 in its top of the line M40d form in the media gallery below! Enjoy and don’t forget to tell us if you like the new tuning tweaks!

Today we are going to discuss about the tuning program that Belgian tuning company Power Plus Engineering has implemented on the below BMW X6 M. It didn’t receive too many visual enhancements, but it does look more striking and, why not, appealing, with the new body wrap. It kinda masks its rugged and boring (for some) personality.

So, this model here is showing off with a combination between BMW M colours and adds as well yellow headlights, meant to indicate we are dealing here with a genuine racer. The SUV is also highlighted in the two videos below, so there`s plenty of information you can find out about its new looks.

The aggressive attitude, especially at the rear end, is given by the Akrapovic exhaust system which announces a new power boost under the hood. There are also the Manhart alloy wheels which also provide a more intimidating and engaging personality.

Moving under the hood, it`s where the real action takes place. In stock form, the BMW X6 M is powered by a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, with no less than 567 horsepower and 750 Nm of torque, and that`s in the second generation X6 M. that allows an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in no less than 4.2 seconds, and that despite its massive body style.

However, the technicians from Power Plus Engineering have added an ECU remapping and a couple of more mechanics that make this X6 M extremely powerful, which is around 700 horsepower. That means a significant improvement in the straight line acceleration; we can guess around 3.9 seconds.

You can admire this beast in the video below!

However, the SEMA show is also a chance for tuning companies to showcase their latest programs as well. Also from the United States of America comes Dinan, a well-known aftermarket shops that builds impressive tuning projects on high-end models.

If Manhart or Mansory were artists at displaying modified BMW models in Las Vegas in the last years, this year was Dinan`s turn to show-up at the event with a modified BMW ride. And what a project it is, especially since it involves the latest M5 saloon.

Seen below in the media gallery, the BMW M5 by Dinan looks extremely appealing and aggressive with the new body wrap, adding as well a couple of carbon fiber elements around the body. Otherwise, the visuals are rather scarce, while under the hood, the model received a significant amount of new power.

Still on the outside, the BMW M5 by Dinan has been fitted with tinted windows, gloss black and carbon fiber components, dark kidney grille and glossy badges. There are also the new forged wheels with Toyo tires, and which enhance the saloon`s mind-blowing look.

As for any performance under the hood, the tuner has decided to keep it a secret for the moment, meaning that the model is still in heavy transformation. Mind that a program like that might come with more than 800 horsepower, just like G-Power recently did with their own project, so we also expect an impressive power kit.

Until further details emerge, take your time and observe the gorgeous BMW M5 by Dinan being displayed at the tuner`s stand in Las Vegas! Enjoy!

Everything is possible today, especially in the tuning segment, with plenty of aftermarket shops that offer customized services depending on the model in question. For BMW especially, AC Schnitzer from Germany has become a dedicated tuner, willing to satisfy your wildest dreams.

For the BMW M5 Competition, the technicians from AC Schnitzer are also throwing in some amazing customizations. One particular model has popped up at BMW Abu Dhabi Motors with a custom aero kit and new power under the hood.

For the model in question, AC Schnitzer have added a spectacular body wrap, along with the amazing body kit made from carbon fiber. This makes the M5 Competition more radical in terms of design.

The body kit comes with bespoke front splitter, carbon fiber front spoiler, carbon fiber ‘Racing’ rear wing, rear diffuser, carbon fiber side skirts, rear rood spoiler, high-gloss black accents on the grille, mirror caps and rear bumper, as well as the “Competition” badge. The mods also continue inside, with plenty of new features to separate it from the standard M5 Competition.

The power of this M5 Competition has also been modified. In standard form, the sports car comes with 617 horsepower and 750 Nm of torque. However, with the tuner`s ECU remapping and a couple of more mechanical enhancements, this lad here is now capable of churning out no less than 690 horsepower and staggering 850 Nm of torque.

With the factory sprint from standstill to 100 km/h performed in 3.3 seconds, with the new power kit, the BMW M5 Competition by AC Schnitzer is now able to perform the same distance in around 3.0 seconds, which is mind-blowing.

Among the tuner`s most outstanding programs, the M2, M3 or M4 models are the stars, all featuring impressive aero kits and upgrades underneath the skins. However, in a premiere, the tuner has also released its work on the brand new M2 Competition, the M2`s more potent sibling.

The process of upgrading a BMW is not easy and comes with a series of challenges at the exterior. What technicians did first was installing an in-house built stainless steel exhaust system with four tailpipes, which provides the new ride with “a sporty-sonorous and unmistakable” sound.

Next is the adding of a new spring set which lowers the car`s ride height and increases its stability, while the new brakes with 400 mm discs and 8-piston calipers ensure improved braking in tight corners or at high-speeds. Also, to improve handling and drive, a new set of club-sport coil-overs were also fitted.

A couple of visual adjustments were also required in order to cope with the higher power. They are also important to improve aerodynamics and thus increase the car`s sprint from standstill to 100 km/h. These refer to bespoke front spoiler lip with side flaps, 9 x 20-inch and 10.5 x 20-inch, front and rear wheels, as well as custom rear spoiler and of course, a rear wing for more downforce.

The result is the two stages of power available on the model in question. The first brings the car to a total of 510 PS and 700 Nm of torque, while the second power kit refers to an impressive 540 PS and 730 Nm of torque.

With the new visual enhancements and mechanics, and with the factory speed limited removed, this lad here is capable of achieving incredible accelerations.

Dahler has also released an impressive media gallery which details its latest creation. Enjoy and don’t forget to share your opinions with us!

Take for instance the below 750Li xDrive which has recently popped-up at BMW`s finest dealership in Abu Dhabi. It features a standout colour and wears plenty of parts from BMW Individual and such alike, making it all together a unique program.

We are not sure if this is a custom-built model for a rich guy or was just donated and displayed at BMW Abu Dhabi Motors, thus joining the rest of the amazing fleet.

As we can depict from the pictures below, this particular ride features a metallic pink colour, called Rose Quartz and perfectly complements the car`s new body parts from BMW Individual and from different aftermarket shops. This includes a 3D Design front spoiler, along with an M Performance lip spoiler at the back, as well as multi-spoked alloy wheels.

As for interior modifications, we can appreciate the Rose Quartz accents, displayed along with wood and black leather, all ensuring a more luxurious feel. As for performance, from what we know, this 750Li remains stock.

This means a massive V8 engine which delivers 445 horsepower and 650 Nm of torque. And even if it is not the a notch variant from the 7-Series, it does come with an impressive sprint from 0 to 100 km/h; in this case we are dealing with an impressive 4.5 seconds, and that despite its massive size.

You can find details of this gorgeous 7-Series displayed in Abu Dhabi in the media gallery below!

The carmaker`s latest creation, which is almost a perfection, the brand-new F90 M5, has also been the tuner`s choice for a special program involving a new power package under the hood that comes in three stages. Additional mechanics have also been added to cope with the massive power.

The new 2018 BMW M5 is the carmaker`s most impressive model and extremely powerful. It comes stock with no less than 600 PS and plenty of torque. However, as usual, the tuner has created special programs that visibly enhances the M`s power.

The tuner`s program begins with a first stage called the Performance Module V1 which adds 100 PS. The additional power was possible thanks to some electronic adjustments.

Next is the 750 PS package which means new downpipes with and modified turbo intakes. Finally, the third and most impressive stage brings the power to a total of 800 PS, which is absolutely impressive. This particular stage uses a new engine software with modified turbo air intakes, adding as well titanium exhaust system with no less than four 100-millimeter carbon/titanium tailpipes.

With the latest power stage, the car`s engine roar is extremely impressive, allowing as well a top speed of whopping 335 km/h. Add the 980 Nm of torque and you have got yourself and extremely fast M5, which translates into a sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in a staggering 2.9 seconds. So, bye, bye Ferrari or Lamborghini!

To cope with the massive power and performance, the all-new 2018 F90 BMW M5 by G-Power has also been enhanced with some new wheels, in this case with the high-performance and HURRICANE`s latest edition RR alloys, measuring 21-inch. Some carbon fiber elements have also been added to increase the car`s down force, like the new G-Power Venturi RR carbon fiber hood.

You can see details of the tuner`s new ride in the media gallery below. Enjoy and don’t forget to share your impressions with us!

Almost all models and variants from BMW have been customized by AC Schnitzer and the company`s new “kid on the block” – the BMW i8 Roadster – couldn’t have gotten away with it. Below is the tuner`s new extensive program carried out on the freshly rolled out i8 Roadster, which kinda resembles with the Coupe model that they brought to Geneva, in March.

Even though the new convertible from BMW looks mind-blowing in stock form, the tuner`s full body treatment provides a more aggressive attitude, a kind of a space ship on modified four wheels as well. Every panel and every component has been customized to make it look the way it should have been in the first place.

From where I stand, the car`s first striking change is the new set of wheels. They refer to the tuner`s most prolific, the AC1 lightweight forged bi-color wheels, sizing 21 inches front and rear, providing a decrease in weight, which is around 4,4 kg.

The wheels go hand-in-hand with the new custom lowering spring kit, which brings the car closer to the ground with around 20 to 25 mm, front and rear.

As for the exterior, the car now features a carbon fiber package with plenty of stand-out elements. We are looking here are the famous AC Schnitzer front grille and 160 mm emblems on the sides, along with the new front spoiler tweaks, middle front spoiler, mirror covers, front side wings or front and rear air outlets. There is also the ‘Racing’ rear wing for more downforce or the door handle panels.

The interior also gets some new elements, which are in contrast with the exterior. There is aluminum covering the pedals, iDrive cover or the footrest, while the floor mats are velour.

As for performance under the hood, the BMW i8 Roadster by AC Schnitzer remains stock. This means a three-cylinder turbocharged engine plus an electric motor, which delivers a total of 369 horsepower. It also manages an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds, meaning a 0.2 second difference compared with the i8 Coupe. The new battery also allows for an average consumption of 70 eMPG.

You can find more details about the tuner`s new program on the BMW i8 Roadster in the media gallery below! Enjoy!

The tuner`s recent take on a BMW with the Typhoon package is the below X6M, the SUV receiving cooler visual updates and a power upgrade under the hood. It thus becomes one of the most impressive makeovers ever carried out on an X model.

Starting with the exterior, the BMW X6M Typhoon by G-Power looks more brutal with the new colour scheme (orange accents and stripes) and new wheels, all complemented with the wide aero kit.

As we can depict from the media gallery below, we are dealing here with a modified front bumper with wider air intakes, along with prominent skirts on the sides which are connected with the front and rear with fender extensions.

As for the SUV`s new modifications at the rear end, the technicians from G-Power have also added a carbon fiber diffuser, carbon fiber boot spoiler, and modified carbon fiber bonnet with extra vents carbon-coated 102mm tailpipes.

The whole deal is also complemented with massive 23-inch HURRICANE RR forged alloy wheels, along with height-adjustable GX6M-RS coil-over suspension system which brings the car closer to the ground by around 40 mm.

However, the SUV`s main highlight is the new power gained under the hood. This was possible thanks to some new modifications, like new turbochargers, G-Power V3 ECU remapping, and G-Power downpipes with catalytic converters. The technicians have also removed the top speed limiter. With the new power software, the BMW X6M in question delivers no less than 750 horsepower and 980 Nm of torque, all squeezed from the same 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine. This allows a quarter-mile acceleration in just 11.5 seconds.

G-Power`s outstanding built on the BWM X6M can be admired in the media gallery below. Enjoy and don’t forget to share your opinions on that!
