Range Rover Sport upgraded by Urban Automotive

In 2022, Range Rover introduced the third generation of its mid-size luxury SUV, the Range Rover Sport. With its appearance, this car attracts the attention of many, and now the British company Urban Automotive has prepared two upgrade kits (Widetrack and Narrowbody) that raise the SUV to a higher level.

The Widetrack pays tribute to the Range Rover Sport model that was modified by the tuner in 2018, and is finished in a special shade of Estoril Blue, which is no longer offered from the factory. This equipment kit includes carbon components such as a front bumper, components that change the appearance of the front fascia, a three-part splitter, a new hood, wheel arch extensions, side mirror housings, a new rear bumper, a rear diffuser, aluminum tailpipes and a rear spoiler. There is also a set of UV-1R Vossen rims in gold.

The narrowbody equipment kit does not include wheel arch extensions, but instead brings a new front and rear bumper, carbon side skirts and an upper rear spoiler made of carbon fiber.

It should also be noted that both packages can be combined with 23- and 24-inch rims, and Urban Automotive also offers an optional high-performance Milltek Sport exhaust system. There were no changes under the bonnet.

Novitec 296 N-Largo based on the Ferrari 296 GTB

The 296 GTB was the first real Ferrari with just six cylinders on it, and a powerful hybrid car with outstanding performance that hit the market in 2021. It is also a project of many tuners, including one of the best when it comes to cars from the company based in Maranello, Novitec. This tuner introduced the 296 N-Largo based on the Ferrari 296 GTB.

The Bavarian tuner has prepared a special equipment package made of lightweight yet high-strength carbon that takes the 296 GTB to a higher level. These include wide body, mirror caps, ducktail, active spoiler, triangle side window cover, rear cover, rear spoiler, diffuser, rear camera cover, N-Largo rear wing, bonnet, N-Largo trunk lid, N-Largo mirrors . There is an isport spring set, Novitec X KW V5 suspension, hydraulic adjustment combined with X KW V5 suspension, turbo inlet, stainless steel or carbon tailpipes, and sport metal catalytic converters.

When it comes to the interior of the car, Novitec will tailor the cockpit to the personal wishes of the vehicle owner in every detail.

The 296 N-Largo is powered by a 3.0-L hybrid V6 engine that now has 868 hp (638 kW) instead of 830 hp. It may not seem like a big increase in power, but thanks to the aerodynamic upgrade, the car will generate more downforce. It is mounted on 21″ and 22″ NF11 forged wheels and customers have a wide range of color choices.

Manhart Supra GR 550 with 550 HP

MANHART Supra GR 550 is a new project of the German tuner, which is considered one of the best in the world when it comes to German cars, but here and there they also upgrade cars of other brands. This time it’s the Toyota GR Supra.

The car is built on the same platform as the BMW Z4, and it is not the first time that Manhart has upgraded the Supra GR model, as we saw a similar project in 2020. However, this time the car is equipped with a carbon bodykit that makes the Supra GR look like the long-speculated high-performance GRMN flagship. These include a new rear wing, new diffuser, front splitter and side skirts with integrated fins. Buyers can also choose optional carbon side mirror housings and taillight covers, as well as a set of black and red decals. The body kit costs 13,500 euros, but the components can be purchased separately.

The biggest change is under the hood where the now turbocharged 3.0-L twin-power turbo engine (B58) delivers 550 hp (404 kW) and 568 lb-ft (770 Nm) of torque. They achieved this by installing a new turbocharger, ARMAspeed carbon intake, radiator, MHtronic module and a stainless steel exhaust system from F1 Exhaust, which comes with an optional downpipe. The body can be lowered thanks to a set of H&R springs or Variant 3 coilover suspension by KW, which further improves handling.

The car is mounted on a set of 20″ Concave One rims wrapped in 255/30 and 295/25 tires, in combination with H&R wheel spacers.
