The DBX P800 is the most powerful Aston Martin SUV

Last year Aston Martin unveiled the symbol of a new era, the Aston Martin DBX707. It was the most powerful SUV of the British car manufacturer. However, the German tuner Mansory presented the DBX P800 with 800 HP, based on this model.

In the second attempt to refine the DBX at Mansory, they did not give up their carbon body components. Many feel that this design ultimately spoils the look of the British SUV, but it may be comforting that the engineers have increased the power making it the most powerful Aston Martin SUV.

The DBX P800 is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 800 hp (588 kW) and 737 lb-ft (1,000 Nm) of torque. As a reminder, the standard DBX has 550 hp (404 kW) and 516 lb-ft (700 Nm) of torque. The power was increased by remapping the ECU, but also by installing more powerful turbochargers and a new exhaust system. Also, the top speed was raised from 310 km/h to 325 km/h.

The car is equipped with a carbon kit that includes side skirts, a front spoiler, hood vents, side air intakes and a rear spoiler. There’s also a set of new 24″ rims wrapped in 295/30 front and 355/25 rear tires.

German tuner TechArt, specialized in Porsche 911 cars, presented its new work, GTstreet R Flyweight. It is a limited edition that will be produced in 19 units, and is based on the Porsche 911 Turbo S.

The car is equipped with a Powerkit TA092/T2.1 equipment package that includes new turbochargers, air filters, a hand-welded exhaust system and other components. Thanks to this, the 3.8-liter twin-turbo straight-six engine delivers 789 hp (580 kW) and (950 Nm) torque. That’s significantly more power than the standard Porsche 911 Turbo S with 650 hp (478 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque.

The exterior of the car was slightly modified with the addition of a carbon fiber front splitter, a skid plate underneath, a carbon fiber hood, wider front fenders with openings on the trailing edge, a new rear spoiler, and a polycarbonate rear window was installed to reduce the car’s weight. There’s also Ohlins suspension and a set of 20″ and 21″ forged wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 R tires.

Inside, Recaro Podium CF seats with 3D-printed pads and six-point seat belts have been installed, and the rear seats have been replaced by a roll cage.

Customers can customize their cars as desired. Exposed carbon can be matte or high gloss, and a whole range of colors is available. Orders are open, and the price can be obtained on request.

Mercedes-AMG SL63 with 850 HP

After last month’s Gronos Coupé EVO C based on the Mercedes G-Class, this time German tuner Mansory has upgraded the Mercedes-AMG SL63.

The car is finished in black and equipped with a special equipment kit that includes a redesigned bumper with copper details, new air intakes, carbon front spoiler, carbon side mirrors, rear spoiler, diffuser, bumper parts also made of carbon, and copper details. There is also a set of 22 inch wheels available in different designs.

Inside, there were no major changes. The seats are upholstered in white leather, while the door panels and dashboard are covered in a combination of white and black leather with contrasting black or white stitching.

The standard Mercedes-AMG SL63 is powered by a 4.0L V8 biturbo engine with 577 hp (424 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. However, the tuner has prepared two performance packages: P720 and P850. In the first option, the power was increased to 720 hp (529 kW). which is far more than the factory version. The most powerful option in the range is the option with 850 hp (625 kW), which is enough to push the car to 62 mph in 3.2 seconds with a top speed of 206 mph (332 km/h).
