AC Schnitzer X-Road


Suitability for everyday use under far from everyday conditions. Under this motto, our engineers and technicians have developed a product range based on a completely autonomous chassis and aerodynamic concept.

AC Schnitzer Topster

Tradition demands it - every (2) years, at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt, as well as the many innovations in the AC Schnitzer special accessories range, a very special vehicle is presented. And 2003 is no exception: The Concept Car, the AC Schnitzer V8 TOPSTER.
The basis is the BMW Z4 3.0i, in which however "no stone is left unturned". The most striking optical feature is the enclosed bodywork, now 13 cm wider, in colours orange / cream.

AC Schnitzer Tension Street Version


Naturally the "small brother" could not be a 1 : 1 copy of the Concept Car, as the TENSION is a technology showcase which demonstrates what is technically feasible. In contrast, the TENSION Street Version had to incorporate suitability for everyday use with no loss of driving pleasure or reliability.

The focal point of the development work was adaptation of the breathtaking, costly aerodynamic conversion for series production.

The bonnet of the AC Schnitzer TENSION, restyled from the standard 6-series, is used on the Street Version. It reveals at first glance, from its large air outlet edged in a chrome frame, that the ventilation of the power plant is actively supported by sufficient cooling air flow .

AC Schnitzer Tension M6 Concept

Psychologically, tension means excited expectation or apprehension of a proposed event which is either particularly desired or feared.
Physically, tension describes a force within a resilient body.
Mechanical tension (symbol s) is the force per surface unit which acts in an imaginary section plane through a body, a fluid or a gas.
Tension is also the most important instrument of playwrights and authors for motivating the viewer and reader to watch and read further.

AC Schnitzer Mini Cooper R56

At the moment the AC Schnitzer designers and engineers develop a special accessories range for the new MINI. Following the history of the MINI, we will concentrate on special developments in the area of performance upgrades, sports rear silencer, sports suspension, exterior components and Interior details

With the introduction of the MINI Convertible the range is now complete, and for AC Schnitzer the logical consequence was to offer for all MINI models - either Convertible or hard top - a special accessories range which leaves nothing to be desired.

AC Schnitzer GP3.10 Concept

Driving pleasure has been written large at AC Schnitzer for 20 years. And thankfully, nothing will change for the 62nd Motor Show in Frankfurt. But this goal can be reached in a totally alternative way, as the launch of the superb AC Schnitzer GP3.10 Gas Powered shows. This high-performance coupe has LPG (Liquified Petroleum Gas) drive, where power and efficiency, economy and ecology, meet in an exciting study

Territory Falcons are becoming increasingly common in town. Now a particularly imposing variant of the agile predator is conquering the road valleys with its broad wings: the AC Schnitzer BMW X6 Falcon. It follows the styling features of the X5 version of the same name, already successfully launched.

The falcon has always been a born fighter, the bird of warriors and a status symbol of the mighty and powerful. The peregrine falcon, with a dive speed of more than 200 km/h, is the fastest bird in the world. With its broad "wings" the AC Schnitzer BMW X5 Falcon also presents a majestic aura. The new widening kit for the front and rear wings perfectly harmonises with the existing accessory range

BMW M3 Cabrio tuning by AC Schnitzer Posted on 14-08-2008 by Andrey Leave your comment Category: BMW, Tuning BMW M3 Cabrio Tuning AC Schnitzer BMW’s M3 is quite a good looking car, and the Cabrio version is even better. That being said, tuners can’t really do quite a lot to that car, BMW doing a great job on the exterior styling of the car. But AC Schnitzer decided to have a go at the sporty convertible and here’s the result: the ACS3 Sport Cabriolet. The german tuners have stayed away from the 420 bhp V8 engine, and instead opted to fit the model with a new sport suspension, and for a cooler noise, fitted the powerdome of the engine with two AC Schnitzer Vents to give a more gruntled sound. The exterior was slightly remodelled, the front end gaining a new carbon fiber lip, modular side skirts to attract attention to the 20 inch wheels and the new AC Schnitzer high performance braking system. The rear was fitted with a carbon fiber rear diffuser and a silencer with chromed tailpipes.

AC Schnitzer ACS6 6Series E64 Convertible


Even as standard, the 6 series models are in the highest automotive class and so offer the AC Schnitzer engineersthe chance to create a truly perfect car.

True, we have a rather dynamic and sporting idea of automotive perfection. This is reflected in every single AC Schnitzer product, in every minute detail.

AC Schnitzer ACS6 6Series E63 Coupe


The years of waiting has finally reached an end. We have again a BMW 6-series Coupé! The question of whether the "newcomer" can successfully follow the legendary coupes of the 70s and 80s simply doesn't arise, as the 6-series, with internal designation E63, already has the potential of a legend: sports performance, elegance and dynamics

AC Schnitzer ACS5 5Series E61 Touring


The AC Schnitzer program for the 5 series Touring includes - among others - several diesel power upgrades for the models 520d, 525d, 530d and 535d.
With the last mentioned one, the 5-series gets an extra 38 HP (28 kW), which increases the maximum torque of 90 Nm. Despite the increased power of the ACS5 3.5d, the excellent driving performance, moderate fuel consumption and superb durability naturally remain unchanged.

AC Schnitzer ACS5 5Series E60

The 5-series (E60/E61) from BMW, with its avantgarde design and superb engineering, has immediately taken and extended the lead in Business Class. A new chapter in the success story of driving pleasure. Giving more individuality, more exclusivity and even better sports performance to cars which inspire enthusiasm even in standard form, is the true passion of AC Schnitzer.

AC Schnitzer ACS5 5Series E39 Touring

The 5-series Touring is truly multi-talented in its standard versions. For our engineers and designers, it offered more than a challenge to give the "AC Schnitzer touch" to an already functional, aesthetical and successful vehicle. After extensive development work, the modifications which had proved successful in the saloon were adapted for the 5-series Touring model
