G-Power X6 Typhoon RS Ultimate V10 based on the BMW X6 M

G-Power, a German tuning firm, claims to soon offer the world’s fastest SUV, with the BMW X6 M as its base. This model already delivers 555hp but G-Power wants it to have higher output.

The tuning firm plans to launch a 900 hp SUV that be able to surpass the 205 mph (330 km/h) mark, hit 62mph (100 km/h) in 4.2 seconds and go pass the 124 mph (200 km/h) mark in 13 seconds. The vehicle is dubbed as the G Power Typhoon X6 M and will have standard 4.4 liter turbocharged engine replaced with the M5’s 5.0 liter V10 engine, which has been given a 5.5 liter capacity.

The powerplant gets twin ASA T1-316 compressors (taken from the G-POWER M5 HURRICANE world-record sedan), a double-floe, water-cooled intercooler, and an aluminum casting air box. Its internals are also upgraded and will get MAHLE forged pistons.

G-Power claims that its revised vehicle will offer 900 HP at 8.000 rpm and 870 Nm of torque at 6.800 rpm. It also gives the vehicle a forged, seven bearing crankshaft, a six speed gearbox that’s developed in-house, with the BMW xDrive four wheel drive system being sacrificed.

To be able to cope with the power, the vehicle is installed with a modified suspension system, as well as with a carbon ceramic braking system using 410mm rotors and six piston calipers. This reduces weight as well as gives top stopping power.
