Tuner Brabus is a company who likes laying their hands on Mercedes-Benz cars. It is no longer surprising that they chose the Mercedes B-Class to be their new project.

Brabus worked on the rear and front spoilers, lowered the customized wheels and put a 4-flow exhaust system. The tires are sized 225/35 R19 on the front and the 245/30 R19 on the rear. The sports exhaust system is available in B180 CDI, B200 CDI, B180 and B200 with 4 tailpipes in 76mm and 1x rear silencer.

The information above are just primer, we think, as Brabus have not released other specifications yet. We will post it as soon as we get more news.

Inden Tweaks The Mercedes SLS AMG

indenSLS 597x398 Inden Tweaks The Mercedes SLS AMG
It almost seems like an insult to take a supercar like the SLS AMG and hand it over to a tuner for improvement. With more than 500 horsepower and a competition pedigree that’s being reinforced by the number of privateers entering the car in the FIA’s GT3 class, the SLS AMG doesn’t seem like a candidate for improvement.

Inden Design, however, has seen fit to tweak the SLS AMG just that little bit more. Starting with the engine, Inden has bumped output from 570 horsepower to 623. The 50 horsepower bump was achieved by replacing the exhaust with freer flowing bits and remapping the ECU. To better handle the increased performance, the tuner also installed 10.5X20 custom wheels shod with 265/295 tires front and rear.

Pioneer Uses Vito Van To Demo Audio System

When you want to literally shake the ground with your premium audio system, mere cars are too small to cram in all those speakers, enclosures, amps and signal processors. Thus Pioneer wisely chose a Vito 122 CDI as its platform for building up its Project X DJ van. With two 15” competition class SPL and four 10” Champion Series subs, two Pioneer CDJs, a state of the art mixer, eight independent amplifiers, four batteries and a 300amp power supply, the system does need the Vito’s 224 horsepower diesel V6 to haul all that equipment around. And one can only imagine how that Vito sounds when the DJ cranks that 30,000-watt system to 11!

Adding to the wow factor are a Brabus steering wheel, Brabus leather shift knob, lowering springs, chrome sidebars, Sports exhaust, metallic paint, tinted glass, colour coded bumpers and chrome grille and tailgate trim. Cost of the system and other visual mods reportedly are in the region of 25,000 pounds, in case you were wondering how much it would cost to replicate.

 

Vilner Showcases Vito’s Luxury Possibilities

Looking more like an executive business jet’s cabin than a small earthbound van, Bulgarian tuner Vilner has taken an ordinary Mercdes Vito van and made it truly extraordinary. The understated exterior treatment hints at very little of the transformation wrought by Vilner to the interior of the van. From the outside, the van just sports aftermarket wheels and a subdued presence. Open the sliding door, step inside, and you are transported to a plush luxury interior that you wouldn’t be embarassed to accommodate any VIP or celebrity in.

Four ultra-plush seats occupy the cabin, whose headliner and side trim are finished in matching-color Nappa leather, Alcantara and fine wood. Tinted windows isolate the occupants from the outside world, the better to enjoy the complete infotainment system featuring multispeaker audio and a 19-inch LCD. Helping the occupants keep their cool is an onboard mini ref. Of course, the front occupants of this Vito have not been forgotten, as they are cossetted in Mercedes CL seats.

Prior Design’s Take on the Mercedes-Benz E-Class

Prior Designs Take on the Mercedes Benz E Class4 597x373 Prior Designs Take on the Mercedes Benz E Class

The German tuner, Prior Design made a kit for the Mercedes-Benz E-Class called PD500. The E-Class body kit was made to look like a fast AMG but it is not. It does not have a V8 engine under the hood, so if you like posing that you have an AMG yet don’t want the speed of it, you may want to go with this kit.

Prior Design said the PD500 is only available for export.
