Manhart MH2 GTR II 01 OF 01 based on the BMW M2 (G87)

Manhart is a wizard when it comes to tuning BMW cars, and their latest work is the MH2 GTR II 01 OF 01. It is based on the BMW M2 G87, the last generation of this model powered by an ICE.

At the beginning of February Manhart has introduced its first project based on this model, the MANHART MH2 560, finished the car in a traditional black color with a decal set in matte gray/blue that goes from the front mask over the hood and roof to the rear spoiler . However, this time Manhart offers more carbon components such as accessories on the hood, kidney grille, front bumper inserts and front spoiler, as well as a champagne-colored MANHART decal set.

Manhart also offers a new diffuser (made by Alpha-N), spoiler lip and a large fixed rear wing, side skirts, mirror caps from the M Performance parts program, and Manhart Variant 4 coilover suspension by KW Suspensions, which improves handling on the track. There’s also a sports downpipe, HJS catalytic converters, a stainless steel system with valve control and four 100mm matte black tailpipes. Inside, the rear seats were removed and a champagne-colored roll bar, Schroth seat belts and floor mats were added.

When it comes to the powertrain, the MH2 GTR II 01 OF 01 is far more powerful than previous projects. Under the bonnet is still the 3.0-liter S58 inline-six engine with 715 hp (533 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque. As a reminder, the standard M2 has 453 hp (333 kW) and the MH2 560 has 560 hp (418 kW). The increase in power was achieved with a new high-performance carbon intake and exhaust system and remapping of the ECU unit. It’s mounted on a set of 20″ Raffa Wheels RFS-02 Forged Series wheels wrapped in 285/30 and 305/25 tires.

Manhart CRE 700 based on Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E Performance

In 2023, Mercedes introduced a new generation of C-Class that no longer uses a V8 but a more powerful plug-in hybrid four-cylinder engine, without a distinctive sound, the Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E Performance. It is an impressive car with racing technology that the German tuner Manhart took to a higher level with the project called MANHART CRE 700.

The CRE 700 is painted black, which is standard for most Manhart projects, with a wide gray and thin red stripe running from the front fascia over the hood and roof to the rear. It is equipped with Manhart lowering springs by H&R that lower the body by approximately 20 millimeters, new exhaust system with sports downpipe, MHtronic module, 300-cell catalytic converters, 20″ rims with red details wrapped in 265/35 ZR20 ront and 275/35 ZR20 rear Michelin tires.

Inside, the interior of the standard C 63 S E Performance is retained. The dark cabin is still adorned with sports seats, red seat belts and carbon fiber accents.

When it comes to the powertrain, the CRE 700 is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine paired with an electric motor for a total of 725 hp (541 kW) and 826 lb-ft (1,120 Nm) of torque. That’s more than the 671 hp (500 kW) and 752 lb-ft (1,020 Nm) of torque available in the Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E Performance. Power is sent to all wheels via a 9-speed automatic transmission.

Manhart could continue to work on the plug-in hybrid model and potentially expand the range of tuning options in the future, of course, depending on demand.

Manhart carbon equipment kits for BMW X5M and X6M

Manhart is one of the world’s best tuners, especially when it comes to BMW models. This time, the German tuning company has prepared carbon equipment kits for BMW SUV models X5M and X6M. These are refreshed editions that arrived on the market last year, and which, thanks to Manhart, now look better and have more power.

SUVs from the Bavarian manufacturer received more aggressive looking hoods, a front spoiler, inserts in the middle section and on the sides of the front bumper, details of the rear bumper, two spoilers one each on the roof and tailgate, as well as accessories for the fenders and rear bumper , and sports thresholds.

When it comes to the powertrain, the standard X5M is powered by a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine making 625 hp (460 kW) and 553 lb-ft (750 Nm) of torque. Now thanks to improvements, this model has a whopping 800 hp (596 kW).

Carbon parts not only improve the appearance, but also improve aerodynamics and reduce the weight of the model. Customers can attach the components with adhesives or screws.
