Brabus B45

Brabus has a new project. It is a Brabus B45 based on the Mercedes-AMG A45 S model.

A better version of the Mercedes-AMG A45 appeared seven years ago. Now Brabus has upgraded the new AMG A45 S model. The powerful hatchback was already a production car with the most powerful production four-cylinder engine. However, that did not stop Brabus engineers from extracting more power from the 2.0-liter engine.

Although the base AMG A45 S develops 416 hp (306 kW) and 369 lb-ft (500 Nm) of torque, after the work of Brabus engineers, engine power has been increased to 444 hp and 550 Nm. Engineers have not changed the electronic speed limit of 168 km / h. The tuned model accelerates from 0 to 62 km / h in just 3.7 seconds, which is impressive. Brabus offers a three-year warranty or 100,000 kilometers on engine reliability.

The suspension of the B45 model is 30 mm lower compared to the AMG A45 S. The interior of the car has undergone minor changes. The seats are upholstered in leather. There are aluminum pedals, velour floor mats, and illuminated scuff plates. The car also features 20-inch Brabus Monoblock wheels with Continental tires.

Inside, the seats are made of carbon fiber in a combination of black and red, and the rear two seats are separated by a small center console. The steering wheel is Alcantara. On all seats there is a silhouette of the Nurburgring race track.

Gold and carbon details can be seen on the outside, and this design in BMW is called Gold Bronze. It is present around the radiator grille, as well as on various markings and a set of special 20-inch rims. Carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) was used for the bonnet containing the vents, as well as for the front splitter, rear diffuser, rear spoiler and side mirrors.

CS branding is found on the seats, door sills and dashboard. A 12.3-inch infotainment system screen is available.

BMW MHX5 800

After the BMW X3 M, the German company Manhart tuned another BMW car. It is a BMW MHX5 800 model based on the X5 M generation. The BMW MHX5 800 is a rival to the Audi RS Q8 that was introduced early last year.

The MHX5 800 features a number of looks and performance improvements. New stainless steel exhaust system with valve control function with four 100 mm exhaust pipes that can be finished in carbon or ceramic coatings.

The new 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine has a larger cooler and new software. The engine develops 823 hp and 797 lb-ft of torque and is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission with all-wheel drive.

Since the base model accelerates from 0-62 mph in 3.8 seconds, the MHX5 800 is expected to be faster because Manhart did not disclose that figure.

The new SUV has 22-inch wheels. Thanks to the suspension modifications, it is 30 mm lower.
