Porsche Cayenne S Coupe upgraded by Larte Design

Larte Design is a German company specialized in making exclusive body kits for luxury vehicles, such as Porsche cars, and their latest project is the Cayenne S Coupe.

Specially designed body kit made of light carbon fiber or premium composite materials includes aggressive front bumper, splitter lip, stylish hood with four vents and Larte logo instead of Porsche logo, air inlet trims, mirror caps, rear skirt diffuser with exhaust tips and small LEDs installed vertically in the central part, trunk spoiler, and more.

The car is painted in bright green and sits on a set of specially designed 23-inch forged black wheels with green accents that enhance the Cayenne’s aggressive appearance. There is no information that the interior design has been changed.

When it comes to the powertrain, Larte Design hasn’t changed a thing. There’s still a 4.0-L twin-turbo V8 engine with 474 hp (349 kW) and 442 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque. It reaches 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.7 seconds with a top speed of 273 km/h (170 mph). Power is sent to all wheels via an 8-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission.

The price of the body kit has not been released.

Before the announced John Cooper Works arrives on the market, the German tuner AC Schnitzer presented the MINI Hatch F66. It is a project of the company specialized in BMW and Mini cars, based on the most powerful Mini, the Mini Cooper S, which takes this 3-door car to a new level.

The F66 is equipped with a special body kit that includes a double front splitter connected to massive side skirts and a rear diffuser, a larger rear wing, blacked-out details between the taillights, centrally mounted 100mm tailpipes with carbon details for a more aggressive look, decals, and new a set of 19-inch AC1 rims available in a two-tone variant and in black, which can be seen on the car in the photos.

As an option, the tuner offers springs that lower the car by 15 – 25 mm and can be combined with 10 mm spacers, for a more exciting ride.

Inside, there were almost no changes. The interior design of the Mini Cooper S with high-quality materials and circular display has been retained, with the addition of an aluminum footrest and key holder.

When it comes to the powertrain, the car is still powered by a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 204 hp (150 kW) and 221 lb-ft (300 Nm) of torque.

Lamborghini Huracan Evo with BKSSII wide body kit

DarwinPro Aerodynamics is a tuner company specialized in making luxury supercar body kits, that takes exotic cars to the next level. Their latest project is the Lamborghini Huracan Evo with BKSSII wide body kit.

This ‘wild’ wide body kit brings carbon fiber components including widened wheel arches for better road holding, new side skirts, front fender vents, new lip spoiler, new diffuser, tailpipes, unique bumper with new air intake shape and a more pronounced splitter. The hood has been replaced with a new one with large air vents, something we’ve seen on the STO model, while out back there’s a new wing also in carbon fiber. One might think that the wing on the STO model is a bit too much for a road car, in this case it gives it a whole new experience.

When it comes to the drivetrain, DarwinPro didn’t change anything. Why would it, when the Lamborghini Huracan Evo is more than a super car. Its naturally aspirated 5.2-L V10 engine with 640 hp (470 kW) at 8,000 rpm and 442 lb-ft (600 Nm) of torque at 6,500 rpm is powerful enough to push the 1,422 kg car to 100 km/h in 2 ,9 seconds with a top speed of 325 km/h (202 mph).

Customers can choose from several wide body kit options. A body kit made from a combination of carbon and carbon fiber reinforced plastic costs $30,360, a body kit made only from carbon costs $40,089, while the forged carbon option costs $50,111. The most expensive option includes premium autoclaved carbon fiber and costs $60,133.
