If there's one thing Russian tuning firms enjoy, is taking a premium vehicle and turning it into a more dramatic, visually aggressive version of itself.ш...щ

 When we tested the S500 Coupe a few months ago, we realized it's a true luxury car, something out of the ordinary. It also cost a small fortune, but this Brabus 850 tuning project is about twice more expensive. The German tuners recently shared photos of their latest project car, which co[...]

Be afraid, be very afraid, as the Tesla Model S could soon challenge hypercars in a drag race. We know that off the line, the P85D is faster than a Ferrari 458 Italia due to its monstrous power and torque. But Russian tuners Larte Design announced plans to increase the output all the way to 900 horsepower. In a recent company statement, Larte said Tesla customers should not be worried, as the 29% power boost will not increase the rate at ...[...]

It's always fun to watch two direct rivals go head to head and see who's better at accelerating in a straight line. It's even better when both cars are heavily modified.[...]

Here's a topic that just won't go away. After F1 chief Bernie Ecclestone stated that Formula 1 should return to using V8 engines, now it was Force India's Robert Fernley singing to pretty much the same tune.[...]

   There's no shame in admitting you like the Toyota GT 86 or Scion FR-S for the sweet handling. However, it's not as bold to look at as a Ford Mustang or a Camaro. That can all be fixed, thanks to a body kit like no other from Japanese tuning company Aimgain. You've probably neve[...]

 

While today’s market is packed with tuning shops and aftermarket suppliers, there aren’t many modified electric cars you can buy. That’s mostly because there aren’t many EVs on offer to begin with, but it’s also because most shops would rather stick to conventional vehicles. As a result, the Tesla Model S, an electric sedan of great potential, got very little attention, mainly from Saleen and Revozport, which didn’t do much as to enhance its styling. That changed recently, as Larte Design, a custom kit builder known for upgrading Infiniti, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz and Range Rover vehicles, came up with a wild-looking package for the Model S.

Dubbed Elizabeta and designed as a tribute to famed inventor Nikola Tesla, the body kit adds "lightning-like clear lines" to the Model S. [...]

 

2015 Ford Mustang customers looking to tweak their ponies have plenty of options as far as aftermarket parts and updates go, one of which is the Blue Oval’s very own Racing division. Ford Racing Parts has already launched a slew of upgrades for the sixth-generation Mustang, ranging from cat-back exhausts and mufflers, for both the EcoBoost and the GT, to halfshaft kits. More parts are scheduled to become available throughout 2015, but next year is also set to bring a custom engine calibrations for the four-cylinder ’Stang. That’s great news for enthusiasts who want to add more oomph to the EcoBoost’s 310 ponies and 320 pound-feet of torque without voiding the factory warranty.[...]

Until today, the Hamann Mystere was the most extreme tuning project based on the new Range Rover SUV brothers, especially in chrome. But that all changed today when Startech unveiled their Range Rover Pickup at Auto Shanghai 2015. Let's just come out in the open and admit that we love this thing. It makes no sense to turn an expensive, practical SUV into a carbon fiber pickup, but it's so interesting we'd look at it all da... [...]

The carbon fiber "Vantage" body kit made by Russian tuners TopCar is as famous as their crocodile leather interior. But there's always room for something different, so how about a Cayenne with 911 headlights?&l... [...]
