For this original project, Brabus joined forces with German electricity company RWE to manufacture the Green Package for the Tesla Roadster Sport. It comes with a quick charging station for the owner’s garage, which is good for 30,000 kilometers worth of electric power. Buyers also receive a one-year pass to use all the public RWE charging stations whenever available. With the quick charging station, the Tesla Roadster can receive a full charge in less than six hours, for a driving range of 350 km. But, Brabus is still a top of the line tuning company that had to modify this little sports car. At the exterior they added a carbon fiber lip and installed LED daytime running lights in the front grille. A discrete carbon wing and diffuser were also added, however don’t think this is the only color paint option.

The car wrapping specialists from Cam Shaft have released their latest work on the Cadillac CTS-V. On the exterior level, the car was foiled with a matte white wrap, and the tuners can even do the visible parts inside the doors if customers choose. To contrast the new white look, all chrome-plated parts were painted in matte black, while the wheels received the same treatment. Regarding performance, Cam Shaft turned to Wait4Me for a new compressor kit to boost the CTS-V numbers. A larger polished air intake was installed, and the tuning firm optimized the ECU software to increase the boost by 0.4 bar to give the 6.2-liter engine a total output of 630 horsepower. These are shocking numbers to any Cadillac fan, because typically these cars are seen as a luxury brand name over a true performance car.

This is a concept from Project Kahn, however they have released this image of what the all new Cosworth-powered Range Rover Evoque styling kit could look like. Some of the design will be modified over the next year, since the Evoque won’t be launched until 2012, but it still looks stunning for a luxury SUV. The British tuning experts plan to offer a custom body kit along with multi-spoke lightweight alloy rims, to fit perfectly with this exceptional blue livery. Unfortunately, the tuners from Project Kahn do not know when this will be completed or how much the cost will be, so stay tuned!
