Manhart CRE 700 based on Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E Performance

In 2023, Mercedes introduced a new generation of C-Class that no longer uses a V8 but a more powerful plug-in hybrid four-cylinder engine, without a distinctive sound, the Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E Performance. It is an impressive car with racing technology that the German tuner Manhart took to a higher level with the project called MANHART CRE 700.

The CRE 700 is painted black, which is standard for most Manhart projects, with a wide gray and thin red stripe running from the front fascia over the hood and roof to the rear. It is equipped with Manhart lowering springs by H&R that lower the body by approximately 20 millimeters, new exhaust system with sports downpipe, MHtronic module, 300-cell catalytic converters, 20″ rims with red details wrapped in 265/35 ZR20 ront and 275/35 ZR20 rear Michelin tires.

Inside, the interior of the standard C 63 S E Performance is retained. The dark cabin is still adorned with sports seats, red seat belts and carbon fiber accents.

When it comes to the powertrain, the CRE 700 is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine paired with an electric motor for a total of 725 hp (541 kW) and 826 lb-ft (1,120 Nm) of torque. That’s more than the 671 hp (500 kW) and 752 lb-ft (1,020 Nm) of torque available in the Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E Performance. Power is sent to all wheels via a 9-speed automatic transmission.

Manhart could continue to work on the plug-in hybrid model and potentially expand the range of tuning options in the future, of course, depending on demand.

Dartz Prombron Iron Diamond CLV

Prombron Iron Diamond CLV is the latest work of Latvian based company DARTZ Motorz that designs, manufactures, and sells high performance armored vehicles. The car is based on the powerful Lamborghini Urus.

The company was founded in 2009 and Prombron is a series that comes in nine distinct models: Iron Diamond, Iron Xtal, Monaco Red Diamond Edition, Black Dragon, Black Russian, Gold Russian, Aladeen, White Horse, and Monaco.

At first glance, the exterior of the car shows a strong resemblance to the original version of the Iron Diamond that has been around for 14 years. The interior design has not been revealed, but if we consider the interiors of previous models, luxury is inevitable. Therefore, we can expect precious metals and the skin of exotic animals, which is the opposite of the sustainable materials that are very popular today.

This model was created by combining the power of Lamborghini and the elegant refinement of modern engineering. The result is the performance of a sports car, the rugged durability of a military tank and the sleek luxury of a Lamborghini. DARTZ has not announced whether the Prombron Iron Diamond CLV will use the Urus’ 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine with 666 hp (490 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque.

The price of the Dartz Prombron Iron Diamond CLV is 2.5 million euros.

Arese RH95 Vento D’Oro Limited Edition

Arese RH95 Vento D’Oro is a new powerful car from the Italian company Touring Superleggera. It is a limited number of hand-assembled examples and the company will produce only 18 of them. This car bears the plate “05/18”.

The Touring Arese RH95 Vento D’Oro is powered by a twin-turbo V8 engine with 670 hp (500 kW) and 560 lb-ft (760 Nm) of torque, taken from the Ferrari 488 GTB. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 7-speed F1 DCT automatic transmission. It reaches 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.0 seconds with a top speed of 330 km/h (205 mph). Previous versions of the RH95 used a more powerful V8 engine with 720 hp (537 kW). The same engine powers the Ferrari 488 Pista and F8 Tributo models. It is mounted on 20″ wheels wrapped in 245/35R20 front and 305/30R20 rear tires.

The car is 4,782 long, 1,982 wide and 1,259 mm high, with a wheelbase of 2,650 mm. It is painted in White Morning Frost with gold details, while real gold is hand-applied to various body panels and covers the entire rear part.

Inside, the sports seats are trimmed in white leather with gold details, while the headrests are covered in Alcantara. White leather also covers the dash, center console and steering wheel, with matching floor and headliner.

The Touring Arese RH95 Vento D’Oro follows last year’s Grigio Artico model, with a starting price of 1.58 million euros.
