Check out this new package for the Mercedes M-Class from the tuners at Hofele Design. They are calling it the Starcruiser GT 550, and have developed a complete 14-piece wide body kit for the luxury SUV. It consists of a new front bumper with LED daytime running lights, fender extensions, side skirts, rear apron with integrated diffuser and a new rear spoiler. The price for the styling upgrades can be purchased for €6,500 which appears to be a great deal with the improvements seen here.
Now for the performance upgrades, some minor tweaks can be had for the diesel powered ML250 and ML350 BlueTEC models. The latter has been enhanced from 255 HP to 308 horses while torque was increased from 620 Nm to 700 newton meters.
Taking a look inside the Mercedes M-Class, Hofele Design hooked it up with hand stitched leather throughout. They have covered the seats, door panels, steering wheel and several accessories with a luxurious feel.
Final modifications include an electronic lowering module for the air suspension setup. This allows the driver to lower the ride height by 40 mm at speeds up to 80 km/h or 50 mph. Stay tuned for more Mercedes M-Class tuning projects as they are one of the most popular makes we feature on this site.
