In 1973, the company took over the distribution of the Alpina agency in the Rhine/Main area. From 1983, the company's core business was BMW tuning. In 1995, Zoran Zorneke took over the business operations and trademark rights to G-POWER. In 1997, the company headquarters was relocated to Brunsbüttel. G-POWER presented the first of a series of compressor systems in 1997, and in 2005, the company expanded to include its own manufacturing facility for carbon aerodynamic components. In 2007, G-POWER presented the 404 kW G-Power G3 CSL V10 Coupé. The G-POWER brand has been located in Bavaria since the beginning of 2007. In 2012, the G1 V8 Hurricane RS based on the 1 Series M Coupe was presented. In 2014, the G4M Bi-TURBO based on the BMW M4 F82 was introduced.
