Performmaster G805 based on Mercedes AMG G 63

The exclusive tuner for Mercedes-AMG, the Performmaster, had the world premiere of its G805, equipped with a carbon widebody kit.

The Performmaster carbon widebody kit brings a new bumper with larger air intakes, the Performmaster logo on the front grille, 10 cm wider track, wider wheel arches, running boards with LED entry lights. Exhaust pipes are traditionally positioned in front of the rear wheels. The car will be offered in olive green metallic and night black magno.

Underneath the carbon hood with large suction cups, is a 4.0L V8 biturbo engine with 805 hp (592 kW) and 752 lb-ft (1,020 Nm) of torque, which pushes the car to 62 mph in about 3.6 seconds at a top speed of 161 mph (260 km / h). Significant increase in power compared to the standard G 63 which has 585 hp (430 kW) and 626 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a nine-speed sequential automatic gearbox. The G 63 reaches 62 mph in 4.5 seconds with a top speed of 137 mph (220 km / h).

The car is based on the Mercedes AMG G 63 and is intended for those who like to stand out.

A month ago, a video appeared on YouTube in which the guys from Throttle House compared three super powerful and fast cars in a drag race. These are the Tesla Model S Plaid, the Porsche 911 Turbo S and the modified Nissan GTR.

Tesla Models S Plaid is powered by three electric motors with a total power of 1,020 hp (750 kW) and 1,050 lb-ft (1,424 Nm) of torque, with a range of 396 miles. It reaches 60 mph in 1.99 seconds with a top speed of 200 mph (322 km/h).

The Porsche 911 Turbo S is powered by a 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six engine with 650 hp (478 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic PDK transmission. It reaches 62 mph in an impressive 2.3 seconds with a top speed of 205 mph (330 km/h).

The modified Nissan GTR is powered by a 3,8-liter twin-turbo V6 engine with 1,100 hp (809 kW), paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. It reaches a top speed of 235 mph (378 km/h).

When it comes to pricing, the Porsche 911 Turbo S is the most expensive with $ 207,000. The Tesla Model S Plaid is significantly cheaper than the Porsche, costing $ 147,990. The price of the Nissan GTR is not known, as it is a modified model.

At 1/4 mile in a straight line the Tesla Model S Plaid was much faster than the Porsche 911 Turbo S. After that the Nissan GTR and Tesla Model S Plaid came out on the track where, again, the Model S Plaid was better.

A 1,500 hp Bugatti Chiron vs Formula 1 car in the one mile race

Who do you think is faster in the one mile race, the 1,500 hp Bugatti Chiron or Formula 1 car? The answer to the question was given by the guys from Carwow.

The short video was posted on the carwow YouTube channel, and shows the battle between the supercar and the F1 car. At the start the F1 car was faster, as expected, as it is lighter and is designed to have a fast start.

At 1/2 mile the F1 car was outstanding, leaving the Bugatti Chiron far behind. But then Chiron showed his true face. Its 8.0-liter quad-turbocharged W16 engine with 1,500 hp (1,103 kW) paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, with full pressure on the accelerator pedal showed the power of the supercar. He managed to catch an F1 car and, in the last 100 meters, was the first to cross the one-mile line.
