6XTM – Audi RS6 Avant with widebody kit

The Audi RS6 Avant is a station wagon with outstanding performance, but there are always those who think they can make any car better, depending on tastes. So the German tuner G&B Design decided to present the 6XTM, an upgraded station wagon with a more aggressive look.

The tuner has prepared a new body kit for the Audi RS6 Avant, which includes specially made parts that increase the size of the car by eight centimeters. New engine hood, new front grille, lip spoiler, sills, rear apron, rear spoiler, side extensions and more, are just some of the parts that make the look of the caravan more aggressive. Also, there is a new set of Jager rims measuring 21×12, and the tuner named its creation 6XTM.

G&B Design did not change the performance of the RS6 Avant. The car is still powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 591 hp (435 kW) at 6250 rpm and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. That’s quite enough for a family car, which reaches 62 mph in 3.7 seconds with a top speed of 156 mph (251 km / h). Power is transmitted to all wheels via 8-speed automatic transmission.

Mercedes-Maybach GLS with 820 HP

Lately, Mansory has been paying more attention to Mercedes cars. Such is the case with the new project, based on the luxury Mercedes-Maybach GLS, which brings certain design changes but also 820 hp.

The GLS got a new front grille with integrated front lip spoiler, as well as new LED daytime running lights. The design of the radiator grille has remained the same, but there is the option of dimming or carbon finishing. There are also new sills, a rear diffuser and a redesigned rear bumper, but also a bull bar at the front and a ram protection at the rear. The side mirror housings are also made of carbon.

Inside, the seats are upholstered in beige leather, which dominates the rest of the interior as well. There are also 3D leather embossing and carbon applications (on request), a new steering wheel made in a combination of leather and carbon, as well as other carbon details.

When it comes to powertrain, the upgraded Mercedes-Maybach GLS is powered by a 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine with 820 hp (603 kW) and 723 lb-ft (980 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 4.4 seconds with a limited top speed of 186 mph (300 km / h). It is mounted on 24 inch forged high gloss wheels type V.6.

Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series with 1,051 hp

The Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series is a beast on wheels. A super sports car powered by a 720 hp V8 engine is a wish of many. But there are always those who think the beast can do more, like RENNtech.

At first glance, it would be said to be a standard Black Series, which is not far from the truth. The American tuner company did not change the design, nor did it equip the car with additional aerodynamic components. Let’s face it, the aerodynamics of the standard Black Series are impressive.

RENNtech has done what it knows best. It has increased engine power, so now the 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine has 1,051 hp (773 kW) and 831 lb-ft (1,127 Nm) of torque. The upgraded Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series reaches 62 mph in less than 3 seconds with a top speed of 219 mph (352 km / h). All this has been achieved thanks to new and larger turbochargers, a stainless steel exhaust system, new air filters and improved transmission control unit (TCU) so that the seven-speed transmission can handle extra power.

As a reminder, the standard Mercedes-AMG GT Black Series is powered by a 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine with 720 hp (537 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 3.2 seconds with a top speed of 202 mph (325 km / h).
