There is always a tuner out there that strives to create the fastest car of its kind in the world and G-Power from Germany have just done that. They have taken the already blisteringly fast BMW V10 and fitted it with a “Bi-Kompressor” system helps the power to be raised from 510hp to 750hp! That a 47% power increase! This translates to a top speed of 367.4 km/h. We’r not sure anybody wants to actually try going at that speed in a 4-door sedan, but someone had to, to authenticate the world record! Go-G-Power!

High-Speed World Record 228,3 mph - 367,4 km/h

G-POWER breaks existing record
After the record for the world’s fastest BMW sedan, G-POWER did it again and broke the long-standing record of the BRABUS Rocket for the fastest sedan in the world.
In November 2008 the 750 hp strong G-POWER M5 HURRICANE RS realised a new top speed of 228,3 mph (367,4 km/h). This speed has been clocked and certified at the ATP High-Speed test track in Papenburg. With it the since October 2006 valid record of 365,7 km/h has been broken.
The G-POWER high-speed world record has been realised with a 20 hp stronger evolution of the famous G-POWER M5 HURRICANE which has been clocked with 360 km/h earlier in 2008 and holds the record for the fastest BMW sedan. The extra power of the G-POWER M5 HURRICANE RS is the result of two modified superchargers from G-POWER’s technology partner ASA, with enlarged capacity. In the following the boost level of the G-POWER BI-Kompressor system could be raised from 0,7 bar rel. to 0,8 bar rel.
But still the G-POWER BI-Kompressor system has not yet reached its limit. According to CEO and engineer Christian Stöber:” …we can rise the boost level up to 1,0 bar rel. and more” and CEO Zoran Zorneke is of the opinion:” we can still improve, if we see the need for it”
We are curios if this will be necessary…
