speedART Tunes Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid

Toyota's Prius and Honda's CR-Z aren't the only modified hybrids in town

speedART Tunes Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid

speedART speedHYBRID 450

The latest innovation of the Porsche Tuner speedART from Rutesheim near Stuttgart is called speedHYBRID 450 which is based on the new Porsche Cayenne S Hybrid. Please find attached an overview on the Tuning activities done by speedART:

Performance:

speedART offers for the V6 compressor engine a power enhancement with additional 70 HP, so that the system effort (petrol engine with electric motor) rises up to 450 HP and 570 NM. Regarding the performance, the effort of the speedHYBRID 450 is much better than the one of the Cayenne S. The speed-up decreases from 6.5 Sec. down to 6.0 Sec. and the maximum speed rises up to 252 Km/h. This means a plus of 10 Km/h compared to the original Cayenne S Hybrid and a plus of 22 Km/h compared to the usual V6.

The electric mode stays unaffected by the power enhancement. The speedHYBRID can be driven in the Zero-Emission-Mode as economical and as efficient as the original Cayenne Hybrid. Of course the function of the Sport- and the E-Power-Button stays the same, only that, when needed 70 hp more power for a sporty drive are available.

Rest of the release and photos available after the break.

What's This? A Porsche Cayenne Turbo Coupe?

Two-door conversion from Merdad looks surprisingly appealing

What's This? A Porsche Cayenne Turbo Coupe?

Here's a pleasant surprise - Merdad, a tuner based out of the UK, actually used to work with Gemballa. So needless to say they know their way around a Porsche and hopefully they don't go into the same fate as Gemballa did. They're looking to make a groundbreaking entrance to the general public by offering a Porsche Cayenne Turbo Coupe conversion, scaling the massive four door SUV to a sporty two door...well SUV.

Merdad also outfits the car with their own kit and engine mods pumping out more horsepower. Not a whole lot of details are out, but the renderings say it all. We can't wait to see one in person to see how well or not well it's executed. More pics after the jump.

Lumma CLR 550 GT for 2011 Porsche Cayenne

The big, bad boy on the block just got bigger and badder

Lumma CLR 550 GT for 2011 Porsche Cayenne

There's great anticipation for the newly redesigned 2011 Porsche Cayenne and Lumma Design isn't wasting a minute by restyling a restyle.  The kit consists of a new front bumper, vented hood, new grille and carbon fiber spoiler lip.  LED daytime running lights (that everyone seems to be doing now) are seen along with four fog lights.  Side skirts, fender flare extensions and a set of 23-inch wheels makes the Cayenne a bigger and badder SUV than ever before.

Check out the official press release and more photos after the jump.

Stark Motor Racing Team - Iron Man 2 on Stephen Verdier's Drift Subaru

Iron Man 2 sponsorship coming to sport compact?

Stark Motor Racing Team - Iron Man 2 on Stephen Verdier's Drift Subaru

It looks like with the inclusion of a fancy scene with Tony Stark piloting a fancy open-wheel racecar in the upcoming movie, Iron Man 2, that Royal Purple has jumped on the opportunity to co-brand with Marvel to create the Stark Motor Racing Team.  Except in reality.  Five drivers, from five different racing demographics, will be campaigning Iron Man 2, Royal Purple and Stark logo placement on their fast rides for 2010, including Stephen Verdier and his wicked drift Subaru.  Other drivers and riders from Stark Motor Racing Team include Melissa Paris, AMA Road Racing, Joey Stathas, Monster Trucks, David Hope, NHRA Pro Stock Motorcycles and Chris Prey, Grand Am Road Racing.  Real interesting marketing campaign and kudos to whomever came up with it.
