For the Essen motor Show, AC Schnitzer, the well known aftermarket specialist will reveal the upgraded BMW M135i.
The standard engine produces 320 HP (235 kW) and 332 lb-ft (450 Nm) of torque from its 3.0-liter engine, but just after the tuners layed their hands, it increased the overall output to 360 HP (265 kW) without increasing CO2 emissions.
The tuning included a custom suspension spring kit and various types of wheels in sizes up to 20 inches. At the rear end, a chromed “Racing” exhaust tailpipe is also available and a two-piece front spoiler. Right on the outside, the sources state that it may get a loading lip protection film, color-matched design stripes and a rear roof spoiler.
And on the inside, it features an aluminum Black Line gear knob, or one can choose the illuminated leather-wrapped gear knob. AC Schnitzer will also be offering the Black Line aluminum cover for the i-Drive, another gear knob with a digital gear display, aluminum handbrake handle with chrome accents, custom velour floor mats and an aluminum foot rest and much more.
