Aston Martin DBS GT Zagato

In 2019, the Aston Martin DBS GT Zagato was introduced as an improved Superlegger. Today, Aston Martin has decided to produce only 19 copies of the DBS GT Zagato.

It is a unique car made in Satin Gray that will be sold together with the DB4 GT Zagato Continuation model. The price of both models is around $ 7.8 million.

The car is made of carbon fiber (108 parts), while some unique parts are made with a 3D printer. It is powered by a 5.2-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 760 hp (567 kW) and 664 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque.

The exterior of the DBS GT Zagato features a new Zagato front grille, which opens by starting the engine, and a stylized roof along the entire car. It will be the only model without the Gold trim package, but with forged carbon fiber badges.

One such model was delivered to the owner in the USA.

Gemballa Marsien – Off-road Porsche 911 Turbo S

The modified 911 Turbo S has hit the market. After two years, the young team has created an off road car (Marsien) that provides drivers with a superior experience.

This off-road Porsche is the work of MARC PHILIPP GEMBALLA GmbH, headed by Marc Philipp Gemballa. The Marsien, which is made entirely of carbon fiber, was designed by Porsche 908 designer Alan Derosier.

Marsien is powered by a twin-turbocharged six-cylinder engine that delivers 750 hp. Engine power can be increased to 818 hp and 686 lb-ft of torque, using a VTG turbocharger and remapped ECU. This 3,955 lb (1,794 kg) weight supercar reaches 62 mph in 2.6 seconds, up to 124 mph (200 km / h) in 7.8 seconds with a top speed of 208 mph (335 km / h), thanks to the Sport Chrono Package.

The car uses 20/21 inch or 19/20 inch forged wheels, depending on the surface on which they are used. The engine is paired with an 8-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) transmission with all-wheel drive. 350 mm discs with 6-piston aluminum monobloc fixed calipers at the front and 4-piston aluminum monobloc fixed calipers at the rear are responsible for safe stopping.

Thanks to the Hydraulic Lift system, the car can be lifted by 9.8 inches (250 mm) in off-road mode or 4.7 inches (130 mm) in on-road mode.

Only 40 copies will be made at a price of $ 580,000 (€ 495,000).

New Hyundai Elantra N for 2022

As we announced earlier this month, Hyundai has introduced the new Elantra N for 2022.

The Hyundai N division has taken a step forward compared to the previous model. The Elantra N is powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo engine that delivers 276 hp and 289 lb-ft of torque. In addition to the manual 6-speed transmission, the new Elantra will also be offered with an automatic 8-speed dual-clutch transmission, and front-wheel drive. The available engine power allows the car to reach 62 mph in 5.3 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph (250 km / h).

The Elantra is equipped with a new adjustable suspension, electronically controlled limited differential lock (ELSD), 245 / 35ZR 19 Michelin Pilot 4S tires and 360 mm brake discs for better stopping, and red brake calipers. Thanks to Hyundai’s N Grin Shift (NGS) system, the car gets an extra 10 hp for shorter distances.

The Elantra comes in the distinctive Performance Blue. Inside, the seats are lowered by 10 mm, which provides a better connection between the driver and the vehicle. They are made of the best materials, with additional support for the driver. A lot of N branding can be seen inside, reminding us that this is no ordinary vehicle.
