G-Power BMW M5 Hurricane RS hits 228.4 mph, breaks fastest sedan record
Quote:
After holding the
record for the fastest street-legal BMW
, G-Power has broken the long-standing record of the BRABUS Rocket for the fastest sedan in the world. Last time we heard, the G-Power M5 Hurricane had a whopping 730 horsepower under the hood that helped it reach a
top speed
of 224 mph.
G-Power now claims that with an additional 20-hp, the G-Power M5 Hurricane RS can reach a top speed of 228.4 mph. The speed has been clocked and certified at the ATP High-Seed test track in Papenburg
where G-Power usually tests all its cars
.
The extra power for the G-Power M5 Hurricane RS comes from a two modified superchargers. According to the company’s CEO and engineer Christian Stöber, the G-Power Bi-Kompressor system has yet to reach its limit. G-Power says that “we can still improve, if we see the need for it.”
