Mansory F9XX based on the Ferrari SF90

August 21, 2022 Francis Mitterrand

The Ferrari SF90 is one of the most powerful cars of the Italian manufacturer, but also the first Ferrari model with PHEV technology. Based on this model, the German tuner Mansory presented its latest creation called Mansory F9XX.

At first glance, the car leaves you speechless. The special equipment kit that sets this car apart from most others, brings a black body with lightweight forged carbon components, enlarged front air intakes, modified suspension, carbon side sills, front lip that increases downfprce, double diffuser for better air flow, large rear spoiler and 4-pipe exhaust system. There’s also a set of new 20- and 21-inch ultra-lightweight “YT.5 Air” wheels wrapped in 255/30 ZR21 (front) and 335/25 ZR22 (rear) high-performance tires.

Inside, the plush carbon fiber sports seats are upholstered in high-quality leather with yellow applications and “Mansory” logo on the headrests. The same combination can be seen on the door panels, dashboard and floor mats, while the sports steering wheel is wrapped in black leather. There are also plenty of carbon inserts in places where leather couldn’t be used.

When it comes to propulsion, the F9XX is powered by a 4.0 liter biturbo V8 engine combined with three electric motors delivering a total power of 1,100 hp (809 kW) and 723 lb-ft (980 Nm) of torque. As a reminder, the standard Ferrari SF90 has 780 hp (574 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission. It reaches 62 mph in just 2.4 seconds with a top speed of 221 mph (355 km/h).

This equipment kit is available for the SF90 Coupé and SF90 Spider.

August 21, 2022 Francis Mitterrand

A few days ago, at Dodge Speed Week, Dodge unveiled the Dodge Charger Daytona SRT. It is a high-performance concept based on the Charger model that brings new technologies never before seen in electric cars.

In appearance, the Daytona SRT resembles a standard Charger. The car has improved aerodynamics thanks to the front cover and spoiler. It is equipped with an illuminated front mask, carbon intakes, a special “Fratzonic chamber system” that emits a noise of 126dB, 21-inch wheels with diamond-cut faces, R-Wing that allows air to flow through the front openings increasing downforce, while for safe stopping take care of gray six-piston brakes. There’s also the Fratzog logo that represents Dodge’s electric future.

Inside, the carbon fiber seats are upholstered in purple leather and emblazoned with the Fratzog logo. On the dashboard there is a 12.3-inch screen, as well as a 16-inch curved cluster. There is also an 8.3-inch head-up display, while the ambient lighting creates an extraordinary atmosphere.

Under the hood will be an 800V Banshee propulsion system with four-wheel drive, which means the Charger Daytona SRT will have better performance than the Hellcat. So far there is no information about performance, but Dodge says that the concept is inspired by the Charger Daytona model, which in 1970 was the first Nascar car with a speed of more than 200 miles per hour.

August 21, 2022 Francis Mitterrand

Bugatti recently unveiled its latest car to be powered by a W16 petrol engine. It is a limited edition Bugatti Mistral (wind blown from the Rhone River Valley) based on the Chiron. It costs 5 million euros, and all 99 cars are already sold out.

With the style of classic cars, the Mistral is also a combination of the Divo and La Voiture Noire models. In the roadster version, with the rear lights in the shape of the letter “X” under which there are ventilation openings, it resembles the Bugatti Bolide. The design of the curved windshield, as well as the double air vents placed on the roof for cooling the engine, are reminiscent of the design of cars from the 30s.

Inside, the seats are upholstered in a combination of black and yellow leather with stitching. The same design can be seen on the door panels and dashboard, while the steering wheel is wrapped in black leather. The shift lever is made from one piece of aluminum and has wood inserts and amber detailing.

When it comes to the powertrain, the Mistral is powered by a centrally located turbocharged 8-liter W16 engine with 1,600 hp (1,177 kW) and 1,180 lb-ft (1,600 Nm) of torque. The same engine powers the Bugatti Chiron Super Sport 300+. It reaches 62 mph (100 km / h) in just 2.4 seconds, 124 mph (200 km / h) in 5.8 seconds, and 186 mph (300 km / h) in about 12 seconds. The top speed that the Bugatti Mistral can reach is electronically limited to 273 mph (440 km / h). Power is transmitted to all wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
