Since making its
debut back in 2001, the BMW 7 Series E65 has been the topic of many a conversation.
The creators of this car have made sure that we are dealing with a true character
actor when it comes to this luxury saloon. Needless to say, BMW left plenty
of scope for enhancements. G-POWER uses this scope to create its own version
of this luxury liner. For more than 22 years, G-POWER has been synonymous with
performance and design. According to the motto of FIRST CLASS PERFORMANCE, the
G-POWER G7 delivers the fine tuning desired by ambitious and discerning drivers.
The new interpretation of the G7 5.2 supercharger satisfies every need with
regard to “Design and Performance”.

The G-POWER G7 5.2K – the fastest way
of moving

G-POWER is the first
automotive tuning specialist to supply a supercharger system, which is virtually
unparalleled, for the new Valvetronic engines from BMW. The some 550 hp / 404
kW and breathtaking 740 Nm at 3500 rpm make it perfectly clear that acceleration
rates on a par with those of a sports car can be expected here. The 2.2 tonne
beast sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.5 seconds. The G-POWER supercharged
engine enables this 7 Series BMW to reach a top speed of 310 km/h. To ensure
the stability, G-POWER only supplies the G7 supercharger conversion kit in conjunction
with the known cubic capacity extension to 5.2 l. The automatic transmission
specially developed for this purpose has been optimised for torques of 800 Nm,
whilst still offering all the advantages of an automatic transmission.

Impressive appearance with G-POWER HIGHLINE design

Less is not always
more. With this in mind, the designers and engineers at G-POWER have developed
an aerodynamic package for the new, lifted 7 Series BMW – namely the “G-POWER
HIGHLINE” product line.

The modified bodywork
was not primarily about simply supplying attachment parts, but rather about
replacing the BMW parts with the G-POWER design. Thus, the bodywork kit includes
the bumpers, side sills and the striking boot attachment, which characterises
the G-POWER line. The parts are produced directly in the subsidiary company
CFKtec in Brunsbüttel, Germany. In the production of these aerodynamic parts,
G-POWER makes exclusive use of carbon-fibre reinforced plastic as a material.
This ensures low weight and optimised durability.

G-POWER Sound – The sound that makes music

The rear end of
the G7 is dominated by four stainless steel tailpipes. The four-pipe system
specially developed for the 7 Series is truly impressive with its sporty, sonorous
sound, which emphasizes the power of the V8 supercharger in its own unique way.
Compared with the production car, the exhaust fumes back pressure and pipe layout
have been optimised in order to realise the awesome 550 hp.

HIGHTECH and DESIGN – custom-built
vs mass-produced

With its modern
look, the new G-POWER Styling III wheel presents a technically sporty design.
Thanks to the special design, the wheel arch ventilation has been improved by
15% and, as such, has a positive effect on the brake temperature.

The three-piece
rotary milled aluminium wheel is adapted directly at G POWER and offers
all the qualities of a genuine tuning specialist’s wheel. As such, instead of
a standard wheel, the customer receives a wheel rim fitted into the wheel arch
without cutting any corners.

The
hand-polished outer wells are coated with a clear Teflon varnish, which lends
them their unique shine after painting.

The G7 is equipped
at the front with chunky 9.0×22 rims fitted with size 265/30-ZR22 tyres and
on the rear axle with 11×22 rims fitted with size 295/25-ZR22 tyres. The Michelin
tyres supplied are authorised for the G POWER G7 up to 320 km/h.

Power requires control

Specially with heavy-weight
vehicles in mind, G-POWER has developed the new G400 braking system in collaboration
with the company Brembo. Measuring 400 mm in diameter and 36 mm thick, the G-POWER
brake satisfies the most exacting of requirements in terms of strength and fading
stability. For drivers of the G7 5.2K, this means an absolute novelty in terms
of safety at top speeds exceeding the 300 km/h mark.
