Lamborghini Huracan Tecnica with new equipment kit

In April 2022, Lamborghini unveiled its new car that has found its place between the Evo and STO models, the Lamborghini Huracan Tecnica. It didn’t take long for one of the tuners to raise the performance of this car to a higher level. The first of them was Novitec.

Novitec has prepared an equipment package that includes new carbon components that make the Huracán more stable at high speeds, such as a trunk lid with air-ducts, side panels, and mirror covers. There are also new sport spring sets, KW aluminum height-adjustable coilover suspension thanks to which the car is closer to the ground by an additional 35 millimeters, and a new exhaust system with or without flap regulation (available with 999 fine gold plating). Now, the sports car looks even more spectacular and delivers even more driving fun.

The tuner did not touch the engine, so the Lamborghini Huracan Tecnica is still powered by an atmospheric 5.2-liter V10 engine with 640 hp (470 kW) and 416 lb-ft (565 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 3.2 seconds with a top speed of 202 mph (325 km / h).

The standard 20- and 21-inch rims have been replaced by a center-mounted option from Vossen, which Novitec offers in 72 colors.

Manhart Formentor CP 500 based on Cupra Formentor VZ5

The German tuner Manhart has shown that it is one of the best in the world, especially when it comes to brands like VW, BMW, Audi or Tesla. Their latest work is the Manhart Formentor CP 500, based on the Cupra Formentor VZ5.

It is a high-performance SUV, and the first photos show that Manhart engineers have created a powerful beast. Under the hood is a 2.5-liter five cylinder engine with 490 hp (360 kW) and 465 lb-ft (630 Nm) of torque. As a reminder, the Cupra Formentor VZ5 has 390 hp (287 kW), and the increase in power was achieved thanks to the use of the MHtronik powerbox. Power is sent to all wheels via a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The car is finished in black with gold stripes on both sides of the car as well as the entire length of the body. It is equipped with a set of 20-inch black Cocave One rims, a new exhaust system with valve control and dual pipes on both sides that replaces the factory ones, while there are no aerodynamic improvements yet, but that does not mean that there won’t be some in the future.

The company announced that it will soon offer Stage 2, which will include a new intercooler, air intake and a new remapping of the ECU unit, which means more power (at least 600 hp).
