Toyota GR Yaris with Type-S Gen 2 aerodynamic kit

Japanese company HKS, which offers the best tuning products for the best driving experience, has produced an upgrade package for the Toyota GR Yaris. It is the Type-S Gen 2 aerodynamic kit that gives the GR Yaris a more aggressive look.

The Type-S Gen 2 includes a pronounced splitter made of GFRP that increases downforce on the front axle, new sills also made of GFRP, a carbon rear wing to maximize downforce, and aerodynamic additions on the edges of the rear bumper with carbon fins.

Precise data showing how much the installed components increase downforce has not been published. The Toyota GR Yaris with this package is already competing in the Japanese Super Endurance Series ST-2 class, which is definitely the best real-world test.

The GR Yaris is powered by a 1.6-liter three-cylinder turbo petrol engine with 261 hp (192 kW) and 266 lb-ft (360 Nm) of torque, mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 5.5 seconds with a top speed of 143 mph (230 km/h).

Rezvani Night is an armored Lamborghini Urus

American automotive designer and manufacturer of high-performance sports cars, Rezvani Motors, has unveiled its new Rezvani Night project. It is based on the Lamborghini Urus and only 100 examples will be produced.

The Rezvani Night retains some of the design cues of the Urus, and for the first time, an Italian car has received their “Mad Max treatment”. It is an equipment package that brings slightly sharper body lines compared to the standard Urus, as well as accessories such as a new spoiler on the tailgate, additional LED lighting on the roof, hood lights, and 33-inch wheels wrapped in off-road tires.

For customers who want to turn their vehicle into an armored one, Rezvani offers the Dark Night equipment package that includes reinforced suspension, thermal night vision system, bullet proof glass and body armor, electrified door handles, blinding lights, ram bumpers, underside explosive protection, smoke screen, pepper spray dispenser, electromagnetic pulse protection, and military runflat tires. There are also a host of other extras such as magnetic dead bolts, optional explosive device detection, strobe lights, sirens, gas masks, bulletproof vests and helmets for passengers, a Hypothermia kit and a First Aid kit.

The cabin is luxurious and buyers can choose from 5 exclusive Rezvani patterns and a large number of colors.

The car is powered by a 4.0-L twin-turbo V8 engine with 800 hp, which allows acceleration from 0-60 mph in 3 seconds. The company did not say how much the car’s weight has increased compared to the standard Urus, nor whether the carbon components are standard or part of the Dark Night package.

Speaking of price, the Rezvani Night costs $ 149,000 + donor Lamborghini Urus. The price does not include the Dark Night package.

Mansory Pugnator Tricolore Limited Edition

In September 2024, Mansory unveiled the Mansory Pugnator based on the Ferrari Purosangue, which received a lot of criticism from fans of the Italian brand. Now, from the workshop of the German tuning company comes the second version and one of the most interesting conversions ever, the Mansory Pugnator Tricolore. It will be produced in only 3 units.

The car is finished in the colors of the Italian flag and bears the number 03 on both sides with the inscription “Tricolore Edition”. It is equipped with a forged carbon fiber bodykit, which includes larger intakes on the front bumper that significantly increase downforce on the front axle, wheel arch extensions, fender vents, massive side grilles and fake rear door intakes. At the rear, there is a massive diffuser with four exhaust pipes, a rear grille and a double rear spoiler. There are also plenty of fins, creases and air intakes, giving the Pugnator a more aggressive look.

The luxurious cabin is made of premium materials and features a white color scheme combined with red and green accents on the seats, floor mats, doors, armrests, center console and dashboard. The seat backs feature a plaque with the words “Mansory Atelier” while the headrests feature an embroidered company name. A numbered plaque on the dashboard completes the car’s uniqueness.

Under the bonnet is a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine with 766 hp (560 kW) and 530 lb-ft (716 Nm) of torque. That’s significantly more power compared to the Purosangue, which has 715 hp (526 kW) and 528 lb-ft (716 Nm) of torque. The car sits on new 22″ and 23″ FC.5 one-piece forged wheels wrapped in high-performance tires.

The price of this limited edition car is not known.
