Mansory Carbonado based on Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4

Building upon the Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 tuning package that was first revealed at the Geneva Motor Show earlier this year, Mansory has released preliminary images and details for a new version that incorporates even wider usuage of the lightweight material carbon fiber. Named the Mansory Carbonado, but also referred to as the "Black Diamond" model, only six examples will be made.
In standard form the Aventador LP700-4 already uses carbon fiber extensively, but Mansory has replaced almost every exterior panel with the strong composite material showcasing its natural carbon fiber weave pattern. Carbon fiber body components are now found in the front bumper fascia, front lip spoiler, front fenders, hood, side sills, quarter panels, rear apron with integrated diffuser and large rear wing. Mansory also exchanged the roof and engine compartment covers with carbon fiber versions. As a result of the new fenders and quarter panels, the width has grown by 40 millimeters on the front axle and 50 millimeters on the rear axle.
For performance Mansory optimized the engine-management and added a high-performance exhaust system, providing 754 PS (555 kW / 743 bhp) at 8,300 rpm and 750 Nm (553 lb-ft) compared to the standard 700 PS (515 kW / 690 bhp) at 8,250 rpm and 690 Nm (510 lb-ft). The 12-cylinder accelerates the Aventador from zero to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds. The top speed is also raised to 355 km/h (221 mph).
Mansory has put a lot of effort into the ultra-light forged rims with carbon-fiber inlays. They measure front to rear 9.0 x 20 and 13.0 x 21 with tires in the sizes VA 255/30 ZR20 and HA 345/25 ZR21.
Interior is given the special leather treatment on the seats and dashboard, a newly designed airbag sports steering wheel made out of real carbon fiber and non-slip aluminum pedals.

Mansory Ferrari 458 Spider Monaco Edition

Mansory has revealed their tuning package for the Ferrari 458 spider, but we're getting a little bit of deja vu. Dubbed the Mansory Monaco Edition, only three examples of this 458 Spider will be sold, but don't get too exicted, as it's basically the same Siracusa 458 package which was revealed in Geneva earlier this year. The bodywork is completely made of carbon fiber. It consists of a restyled front apron with air inlets for the front coolers, a new bonnet, and side skirts with integrated ducts to feed even more cooling air to the engine. At the back is a rear skirt with integrated diffuser and a rear wing. Carbon blades replace the rear window and the total weight-savings, thanks to the use of carbon fiber, is 60 kg (132 lbs). Engine performance upgrades includes a reprogrammed ECU, sports air filer and sport exhaust which translates into 590 HP (434 kW / 582 bhp) and 560 Nm (413 lb-ft) of torque. 0 to 100 km/h takes place in 3.2 seconds and top speed is 330 km/h (205 mph). Chassis improvements feature new shock absorbers and 20mm lowering springs while Mansory offers forged rims with central locking in 9x11 and 11x21 dimensions with Michelin PS2 tires in 245/35ZR-20 and 305/30ZR-21 sizes. Mansory is known to offer extroverted interiors and the Monaco Edition is no exception. It features leather and Alcantara trimmed in a red and white diamond theme which are the colors of the principality.

Mansory Mercedes-Benz CLS 63 AMG

Overshadowed by two high profile debuts, the MP4-12C and Aventador, from the house of Mansory, the Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG was somewhat neglected by the world's media. Better late than never, we have the full details and photos for you.
The carbon-fiber obsessed firm from Brand, Germany starts with a wide body kit which expands the front and rear wings by 50mm and 80 mm respectively and also includes new side sill and cladding. With the newly designed hood in place, the appearance of carbon fiber covers almost all surfaces when viewing the vehicle from the front. At the rear, a new rear bumper fascia is defined by a dramatic diffuser that Mansory says increases the vehicle's downforce in cooperation with the rear spoiler. The wide body CLS's look is finished off with 20-inch ultralight forged wheels with 265/30ZR20 tires at the front and 305/25ZR20 tires at the rear.
Under the hood with its 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 which produces in standard form 557 PS (410 kW / 550 hp) and 799 Nm (590 lb-ft) of torque, Mansory managed to squeeze out a total of 640 PS (471 kW / 631 bhp) and 900 Nm (664 lb-ft) of torque at 2,000 to 4,500 rpm. This increase in power is the result of a newly programmed control unit as well as a sports air filter.
No Mansory tuned vehicle is complete without a customized interior. Aluminum pedals and footrests supplement the elaborately designed full-leather upholstery, along with deluxe entry sills and floor mats with custom embroidery. Carbon fiber trim pieces are found on the dashboard and center console while the sports steering wheel features newly designed ergonomics.

Audi R8 Spyder by Mansory


Mansory has released new photos of their tuning package for the Audi R8 V10 Spyder. On the styling front, the model has an aggressive body kit with a front spoiler, revised side skirts and a prominent rear wing.
There's also carbon fiber accents and 20-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin can be ordered with everything from personalised floor mats to custom leather seats. If you're not ready to pony up the big bucks, you can settle for aluminium pedals and illuminated sill plates. For added performance, the 5.2-liter V10 engine is equipped with a high-flow air filter and a sport exhaust system. Thanks to these tweaks, the engine develops 552 PS (406 kW / 544 hp) and 550 Nm (406 lb-ft) of torque - an increase of 27 PS (20 kW / 27 hp) and 20 Nm (15 lb-ft).

Press release:

The MANSORY refining programme for the Audi R8 Spyder
Refining sports cars is more than just a business for MANSORY. Love for detail, the particular and the unique is an incentive for exceptional reconstructions. The company's latest stroke of genius impressively proves that once again. The MANSORY interpretation of the Audi R8 Spyder with its exclusive and extensive refining programme does not let just the hearts of convertible fans beat faster.
In particular, the car body kit clearly demonstrates that the desire for visual refinement is the focus at MANSORY. Apart from a multitude of new design elements made of carbon such as the new front grill and the lamella bonnets, specific interventions on front, side and rear ensure extra aerodynamics. The front spoiler attachment therefore reduces the buoyancy of the Spyder, which decisively improves handling and agility. Furthermore, the side skirts calm the air flow between both axes. A rear spoiler also provides more contact pressure. The MANSORY technicians could restrict themselves to a small wing profile from which the car body design has significantly benefited. Since the combination with a new rear apron and the perfectly integrated rear diffuser made a sufficient grip available. The MANSORY aerodynamics kit displays its strengths on main roads with curvy sections and generates pure driving pleasure.
Extra agility and handling create room for more power. For the V10 5.2 FSI-engine MANSORY brings its Know-How into play. By installing a sport air filter and a sport exhaust system, an improvement of performance results in 552 HP / 406 kW with 800 rpm and an increased torque of 550 Nm with 6500 rpm
An additional technical highlight in the refining programme offered is the distinctive MANSORY alloy wheel. It is particularly light due to the production in forging technology. The unsprung masses are thereby reduced, which improves noticeably both handling and acceleration as well as braking response. The recommended wheel/tyre combination has the size 8.5Jx20 inches with tyre dimensions 245/30ZR20 at the front. At the rear, 11.0Jx20 sized rims with tyre size 305/25ZR20 are used. The wheel/tyre combination is properly set into the scene by suspension springs for the lower suspension setting of the sports car.
MANSORY customers also get offered something in the interior as well. As a complement to the existing interior design offered by our manufacturer, MANSORY offers a extensive programme. That ranges from personalised doormats to perfectly worked leather upholstery with MANSORY couture and carbon applications. Illuminated door entry strips and pedals and footrests made of aluminium are also in the extensive list of possible interior refinement.
MANSORY Design & Holding GmbH offers only its in-house developed tuning accessories. The company does not offer its own make as "complete" vehicle, neither does the company deal with such type of vehicles.

BMW 7-Series by Mansory


Swiss tuner Mansory has devised a new look for the BMW 7-Series that comes with a little extra zip for this flagship sedan.

The aerodynamic kit puts a new face on the 7-Series by means of a new front bumper with integrated LED daytime running lights and a new carbon grille. Over the rear windscreen is a roof spoiler and the back end features a new apron, diffuser and integrated stainless-steel quad-pipes from the new sport exhaust system fitted by Mansory.

The tuning package is available for both the F01 and F02 7-Series models and the corresponding engine upgrade packages reflect that.

Mansory offers a performance upgrade kit for both the 750i and the 760Li (extended wheelbase edition). The upgrade on the 750i with a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 consists of an ECU remap and sport air filter which is good for a new total output of 490 PS (360 kW / 483 bhp) and 720 Nm (531 lb-ft) torque over the serial 408 PS (300 kW / 402 hp) and 600 Nm (440 lb-ft).

On the 760Li with a 6.0-liter twin-turbo V12, the tuner dials up the power quotient to 640 PS (470 kW / 631 bhp) and 920 Nm (678 lb-ft) torque compared to the standard 544 PS (400 kW / 537 hp) and 750 Nm (550 lb-ft) .

That makes for a pretty quick long-wheelbase 7-Series as the 0 to 100 km/h sprint time on the Mansory 760Li takes just 4.2 seconds, shaving 0.4 seconds off of the series' model.

To carry all that weight and power in style, Mansory fits the 7-Series with new 10 x 22-inch rims wrapped in 265/35R22 performance tires at the front and 295/30R22s for the rear axle.

For the cabin is a new, ergonomically-designed, sport steering wheel absent the BMW badge but which still provides all the functionality of the standard wheel. Mansory also offers finishes in leather or Alcantara with wood or carbon trims. Personalized options include even the floor mats and any leather touches desired as per the customer's tastes.

Ferrari 458 Italia tuned into Mansory Siracusa


Tuner Mansory has brought the Siracusa to the Geneva auto show halls - based on the Ferrari 458 Italia.

Named after a town in Sicily and its historic race track, the Mansory Siracusa makes even more use of carbon than does original manufacturer Ferrari as all body components are now made out of that lightweight material.

Those include a front apron with air inlets for the front coolers, a new bonnet, and side skirts with integrated ducts to feed even more cooling air to the engine. At the back is a rear skirt with integrated diffuser and a rear wing. Carbon blades replace the rear window and the total tally on the weight-saving carbon is 70 kg (154 lbs) less curb weight for the 458 Italia.

Power upgrade takes the form of an ECU remap, sport air filer and sport exhaust - all good for 590 PS (434 kW / 582 bhp) and 560 Nm (413 lb-ft) of torque. 0 to 100 km/h takes place in 3.2 seconds and top speed is 330 km/h (205 mph).

For the suspension, Mansory fits four sport shock absorbers and progressively-wound lowering springs which lower the 458 by 20 mm. Wheels consist of 9 x 20-inch and 11 x 21-inch forged rims wrapped in Michelin PS2 tires, 245/35ZR20 and 305/30ZR21, front and rear, respectively.

Inside the cabin, the tuner applies top materials including leather, ultra-suede and carbon for the interior finish. That includes handiwork such as the decorative stitching, a newly designed center console, aluminum pedals, and a sport steering wheel with full-sized airbag.

Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG by Mansory Cormeum

This is the Mansory Cormeum based on the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG.

Designed and named by the tuner's owner and head designer Kourosh Mansory, the SLS gets wrapped in a complete carbon shell for a 90 kg weight-saving diet and a substantially revised look.

The body kit includes a new lightweight roof and wing doors, front skirt with large air inlets, widening fenders that extend the SLS by 66 mm at the front axle and 84 mm at the rear axle, as well as side skirts that make the sport coupe appear lower. At the back is a rear spoiler with carbon flaps and a race diffuser for additional downforce.

Engine tuning consists of increasing output to 660 PS (485 kW / 651 bhp) while a performance upgrade to 800 PS (588 kW / 789 bhp) is also in the works.

For the wheels are 9 x 20 inch rims at the front with 265/30R20 Michelin tires and 11 x 21 inchers at the back wrapped in 295/25R20 Michelins.

New springs and dampers lower the SLS AMG by 20 mm too.

On the inside Mansory does its luxuriating thing with a hand fitted soft leather finish with decorative stitching, carbon trim, of course, a newly designed center console and other touches such as the aluminum pedals and sport steering wheel with a full-sized airbag.

The name, Cormeum, comes from an operatic aria called Vide Cor meum composed by Patrick Cassidy and based on a sonnet in Dante's "La Vita Nuova".

Range Rover Sport by Mansory

To celebrate Range Rover's 40th anniversary, Swiss tuner Mansory has a new program for the Range Rover Sport.

Mansory begins things with a modest boost in power for all engine variants, both diesels and petrols, on the Sport - up to 30 PS (22 kW) and 40 Nm of torque. Power is uprated by means of a new sport air filter, ECU-optimization and a new sport exhaust system.

Then Mansory adds the more impressive aerodynamic kit made of PU-RIM plastic components. The front face of the Range Rover Sport includes a new front spoiler with vertical LED daytimers and large air intakes. There's a new bonnet using the carbon prepreg method with a large power dome on it to channel more cool air to the engine too.

The new wings and side skirts also widen the SUV by 60 mm at the front and 80 mm at the back. For the rear is a new apron and diffuser with a carbon insert and a carbon fiber rear roof spoiler. The D-pillars can also be fitted with carbon applications.

Mansory provides an air suspension module that can lower the Range Rover Sport up to 30 mm and fits it with 23-inch light-metal wheels wrapped in 315/25/R23 high-performance tires.

For the cabin is a new sports steering wheel, aluminum pedals and a leather finish that can be mated to a choice of either wood touches or carbon fittings. To top things off, carbon-embroidered MANSORY Switzerland badges adorn the seats and floor mats.
