BMW M3 and M4 – a new Manhart project

The BMW M3 and M4 are a new Manhart project. These are sports cars that have kept only the front grille compared to the previous model.

Manhart is currently developing new carbon aerodynamic parts such as the hood, front splitter, rear spoiler, and the diffuser.

The standard twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter engine will produce 600 hp. By installing the MANHART MHtronik Powerbox, engine power is increased to approximately 620 hp and 750 Nm of torque. Cat-back and OPF-back exhaust systems with twin carbon tailpipes are offered.

For better cornering control, there are lowering springs manufactured by H&R. Both models also feature 21-inch Concave One forged wheels, 265 / 30R21tyres on the front and 305 / 25R21 tires on the rear axle. Rims can have a Manhart gold stripe as an option.

All of the above includes Phase 1. Phase 2 is expected at the end of the year, when Manhart will take the M3 and M4 to the next level.

Infiniti has canceled production of the Q60 Project Black S

Infiniti has officially canceled the Q60 Project Black S, which was reportedly headed by former Infiniti boss Roland Krueger. With 563 hp it was supposed to use Formula One technology.

Although it never came into production, Infiniti spokesman Kyle Bazemore said “The concept continues to inspire us.”

The Q60 had a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 engine and a 4.4-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery. It produced 563 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque. It was supposed to accelerate from 0 – 62 mph in less than 4 seconds. Only two prototypes of this model have been produced.

“I would much rather see something like the QX60 [crossover]. That’s a volume vehicle, that’s where this company needs to go,” Ed Lennon, the Infiniti National Dealer Advisory Board chairman, told Automotive News.

Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge – Beast with 707 HP

Although the Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge is a powerful car, Spofec has gone further. Even 600 hp and 664 lb-ft of torque was not enough to express all the capabilities of this car.

New ignition programming, new injection system and higher maximum pressure increased its power to 707 hp and 785 lb-ft of torque. This made Cullinan a real beast that accelerates from 0-62 mph in 4.6 seconds. The top speed of 155 mph (250 km / h) remained the same.

In response to more power, Spofec increased the body by 3.9 inches (front) and 4.7 inches (rear), added new rocker panels, a new front bumper and a functional front spoiler. There are also new forged 24-inch wheels developed in collaboration with Vossen. The car has a special control module for the air suspension that reduces the height of the vehicle by 1.6 inches (40 mm).

The look of the Cullinan is complemented by an upgraded stainless steel exhaust system, a rear spoiler and an aggressive diffuser.
