At the Geneva Motor Salon, Carlsson released this new package for the Smart Fortwo. While we aren’t great fans of this tiny sports car, if you even want to call it a sports car, they are catching on and selling worldwide. More people everyday are looking for Smart tuning ideas to boost the pitiful 1.0-liter engine. Carlsson has introduced this CK10 package to add a new sport air filter and revise the ECU to bring the output to 110 horsepower and 158 Nm of torque.
Check out this Carlsson tuning package for the Mercedes-Benz SLK set to be displayed at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. On the exterior is a new aero kit similar to the AMG sports package. It features a carbon RS lip spoiler, grille inserts, diffuser and trunk lip spoiler. Under the hood is a CB25 S package for the SLK powerplant from the Carlsson Plug-and-Drive series. The Mercedes sports car also received a larger intercooler and stainless steel exhaust system to handle the new output around 240 horsepower.
Here we have the Carlsson tuned Mercedes GL Grand Edition called the CGL45 that is planned to be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show. It features a wide body kit with new wheel arches, front spoiler, chrome grille, and rear apron holding the new stainless steel exhaust system. Power increases for the Mercedes-Benz show 310 PS and 700 Nm of torque, a jump from the factory model 265 PS and 620 Nm of torque. For the top of the line model, the Mercedes GL 500 has been boosted to 435 PS and 600 newton meters of torque.
The German tuning company Carlsson has released a new package for the Mercedes-Benz SLK. Performance mods start off with a new C-Tronic kit to deliver more boost to the new CGI engines found in the SLK. The 200 CGI Mercedes SLK power was increased to 224 PS, while the SLK 250 CGI received 239 PS. A suspension kit was installed to lower the Benz up to 30 mm along with the new 18 to 20-inch wheels. Exterior styling improvements to the Mercedes include a new front lip spoiler, grille inserts, spoiler, and a diffuser at the rear.
Rolf Schlepp, chief designer for the Carlsson tuning company, accentuates the coupe styling of the Mercedes CLS with a new aerodynamic package. The kit includes stainless-steel grille inserts, rear apron boasting an integrated diffuser, front spoiler, and RS front spoiler lip, the last available optionally in carbon fiber. Power boosting kits are available from Carlsson for many different CLS engines; one boosts the CLS 63 AMG twin-turbo V8 from the standard 557 PS to as much as 600 PS. The CLS 350 CDI’s power rating is boosted by as much as 20 percent by the Carlsson C-Tronic control unit, bringing it up to 780 Nm and 320 PS, an increase of 130 Nm and 55 PS over the standard model. The sprint time of the Mercedes CLS has been improved from the standard by a full 0.3 seconds, resulting in zero to one hundred kilometers an hour in only 5.9 seconds.
