The DBX P800 is the most powerful Aston Martin SUV

Last year Aston Martin unveiled the symbol of a new era, the Aston Martin DBX707. It was the most powerful SUV of the British car manufacturer. However, the German tuner Mansory presented the DBX P800 with 800 HP, based on this model.

In the second attempt to refine the DBX at Mansory, they did not give up their carbon body components. Many feel that this design ultimately spoils the look of the British SUV, but it may be comforting that the engineers have increased the power making it the most powerful Aston Martin SUV.

The DBX P800 is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 800 hp (588 kW) and 737 lb-ft (1,000 Nm) of torque. As a reminder, the standard DBX has 550 hp (404 kW) and 516 lb-ft (700 Nm) of torque. The power was increased by remapping the ECU, but also by installing more powerful turbochargers and a new exhaust system. Also, the top speed was raised from 310 km/h to 325 km/h.

The car is equipped with a carbon kit that includes side skirts, a front spoiler, hood vents, side air intakes and a rear spoiler. There’s also a set of new 24″ rims wrapped in 295/30 front and 355/25 rear tires.

Ford is considering a road-legal Mustang GT3

Ford recently announced that after 58 years of racing experience, it will take its Mustang racing car to the next level with the new Mustang GT3. Ford worked on this car with M-Sport, and the owner, Malcolm Wilson, did not hide his enthusiasm for this cooperation.

The car will make its debut in the 2024 season, and news is coming from the company that will delight all Ford Mustang fans. According to Chief Executive Officer of Ford Jim Farley, Ford is considering production of a road-legal Mustang GT3. This could be a response to competitors who have been offering their racing cars as street legal for years.

Mustang GT3 will be based on the powerful Dark Horse and will be powered by a 5.0L Coyote V8 engine with 500 hp (368 kW) and 418 lb-ft (567 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a six-speed TREMEC manual transmission.

Ford has also announced that it will refresh the Mustang GT4 for 2023 to continue the success story of this model. “We’ve had a lot of success both here and in Europe with the current Mustang GT4, and we look forward to being able to provide our customers with a brand new car for competition in the GT4 category starting next season,” said Mark Rushbrook .

The Acura NSX also joined the chase, but unfortunately for both cars, the chase did not end well. The incredible start that the Nevera has was too much for the other two super cars.
