Mansory Elongation based on the Tesla Cybertruck

Almost six years ago, Tesla unveiled its battery electric pickup truck, the Cybertruck, which Elon Musk said that it packs a lot of technology and it doesn’t look like any other vehicle out there today. Now, German tuner Mansory has unveiled its own version, the Mansory Elongation.

The Elongation is equipped with forged carbon components that replace some of the original steel panels, but also give it a more aggressive look. These include new fenders, a hood with a vent, a sporty bumper with an integrated splitter and a set of LED roof lights, new side mirrors, sills and false windows with a vent, two spoilers on the corners of the rear, a massive splitter, F1 brake lights and a carbon panel with an illuminated Mansory logo. It sits on black 26-inch FD.15 wheels wrapped in 315/40 R26 high-performance tires.

The interior is upholstered in high-quality leather covering the seats, and there are also plenty of carbon details. Mansory offers a choice of interior colors, and this example is finished in a combination of white, black and green.

When it comes to the powertrain, nothing has been changed. The Elongation is powered by three electric motors with a total output of 805 hp (600 kW) and 1,033 lb-ft (1,400 Nm), which is enough to push the car to 62 mph in just 3 seconds with a top speed of 130 mph (209 km/h).

The price of the upgrade is unknown.

Porsche Cayenne with 930 HP

The current generation Porsche Cayenne served as the basis for a new project by German tuner TechArt, called Magnum. It is a special equipment kit made of carbon fiber that takes the SUV to the next level.

The Porsche Cayenne is known for its excellent performance and good design, but the new carbon components make it even more impressive. The equipment kit includes a new front bumper with black elements and optional body-colored wings, a radiator grille, a new hood with two large air vents, wider wheel arches, new sills, and new exterior mirror housings. The Magnum is available in standard, Sport, Unique, and First Edition versions.

The Sport version offers a more aggressive diffuser with two centrally located exhaust pipes, like those of the Cayenne Turbo GT, as well as a carbon roof spoiler and a small lip spoiler. The Unique version offers more customization of the exterior and interior.

The First Edition offers the highest level of customization and uniqueness, such as individually numbered front wheel arches and a customized interior. This version is limited to just 25 units.

When it comes to the powertrain, TechArt has increased the power of the twin-turbo V8 engine to 930 hp and 1,100 Nm of torque. This is enough to accelerate the car from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.6 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 330 km/h. The car is mounted on a set of 23-inch wheels with black, silver and carbon elements.
