Mansory Unveil Wild, Two-Tone AMG G63 UAE 50th Edition

The G-Wagon was chosen because it is one of the most popular cars in the UAE.

Mansory is one of the most famous tuning houses in the world. The German aftermarket firm produces some sometimes wild and controversial builds that always end up grabbing people’s attention. Their latest creation is something that is extra crazy and a bit of a surprise. This is the Mercedes-AMG G63 P900 Limited Edition 50th UAE by Mansory, a limited edition run of the very popular Mercedes-AMG G63 that, as the name suggests, is specifically for the United Arab Emirates.

Mansory Unveil Wild, Two-Tone AMG G63 UAE 50th EditionThe United Arab Emirates, by the decree of Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, is marking 2021 as The Year of the 50th. Essentially, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the nation’s founding back in 1971. This G63 by Mansory is part of the celebrations that will run until April 2022. If we take a good look at the G63, we can see that even the interior has had a wild makeover. That interior space is in yellow and purple leather in its entirety, with Mansory saying that the colors mirror each other in the center of the vehicle. This helps to create a unique play of colors on the inside.

The exterior, though, is where the real craziness lies. It carries a pretty crazy two-tone paint scheme of purple on the front, with it transcending into black across the second half of the car. On top of the basic paint changes, the exterior of the G63 has a wide range of body kit features. The Mansory logo is now on the grille, and the body is wider and sturdier looking, with crazy wheel arches and a wild looking bumper and grille.

Too Crazy Even For Mansory

The wheels have received an equally crazy remake, with multiple spoke black wheels complimenting the purple at the front and blending in with the black at the back. The car has also had some form of performance upgrades too. Mansory say that the performance data they have shows the G63 is capable of a wild 900 hp, and produces 885 lb-ft of torque. They have not released the data on what upgrades they have done to the engine of the G63 P900. There is no price referenced for the car yet either, but given it will be exclusive to the UAE, it is surely not going to be cheap.

This New Lexus LFA Redesign Puts The Electricity

The Lexus LFA gets a new custom body design and aerodynamic features, along with an electric powertrain and awesome glass roof.

Lexus’ LFA is a Japanese sports car that won’t die – many are still mourning its death and calling for its successor a decade after it finished production.

Why it’s an icon, a classic and a favorite for many is down to different factors, sure, but it also had a kind of X-factor that many other premium performance coupes can aspire to.

As we’ll see, the Lexus LFA has been back in the press recently for an important reason and so now seems like as better time as any to speculate on how the familiar Japanese coupe might look on the outside if it returned tomorrow.
These new renders are exclusives courtesy of HotCars artist Timothy Adry Emmanuel and portray the LFA like you’ve never seen it before – let’s take a closer look.

Lexus LFA
Looking at the render we can see that it is a sleek, two-door coupe, with a long hood that connects with a windshield and eventually a long sloping roofline to the short rear section.

Of course, most of the details and features are new, but you can see how the black cut-outs and grills below the headlights and tail lamps serve as inspiration for the render.

It has large rims, double-deck LED lights and a very low front splitter and bumper section.

A curvy door, low side sills with ducts behind the front wheels and an uninterrupted glass house from the windshield all the way back to the trunk.

Up back, there are no triple exhausts, just an immense rear diffuser section that you must see to believe – overall, it perhaps looks to have more in common with the Lotus Evija than a Japanese sports car – more on that later.

2023 Cadillac Escalade V-Series: This Large SUV Will Blow Your Mind

Forget everything you thought you knew about the Cadillac Escalade; this SUV is an absolute monster. The 2023 Cadillac Escalade V-Series is a game-changer for General Motors. In fact, it makes for quite the challenge to just about any SUV on planet earth. The V-Series does everything right, from complete luxury to vicious performance, and everything in between. All of these promises come at a huge price, however, both in terms of MSRP and fuel consumption. The question is, is the 2023 Cadillac Escalde-V good enough to justify a $150,000+ price tag?

2023 Cadillac Escalade V-Series: This Large SUV Will Blow Your MindWe’ve all known and loved the Escalade for nearly 23 years. The larger-than-life SUV has always been a comfortable, luxurious, and spacious vehicle that spares no expense. Things are different when you add the “V” emblem to the Escalade, and the 6,217-pound SUV becomes almost as quick as the Maserati Quattroporte Trofeo . This is due to the monstrous 6.2-liter Supercharged V8 engine that sits under its giant hood. This is almost the same engine in the Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing, but the Escalade’s sports a larger supercharger, 2.7-liter compared to the CT5-V’s 1.7-liter to be specific. The 6.2-liter Supercharged V8 works collaboratively with a 10-speed automatic transmission, with tuning specific for the Escalade-V. Together, the V-Series delivers 682 horsepower and 653 lb-ft of torque. The immense amount of power and torque go straight to all four wheels, all the time.
In addition to the aggression from the 6.2-liter Supercharged V8 engine, the V-series continues that theme in exterior styling. In the rear, you will see openings that fit the quad exhaust outlets seamlessly. As you make your way to the front, you can’t help but notice the Escalade’s confident stance, with a sporty touch from the red Brembo and Edge Red brake calipers. The V-Series brings exclusive 22-inch wheels, which works brilliantly with the red calipers. The front has Cadillac’s beautiful mesh grille, which works extremely well with the thin headlights. This exterior design is a well-balanced mixture of sophisticated elegance and athletic cues. It isn’t easy to improve on an already beautiful design, like the 2022 Escalade Premium.

 

A Fresh New Take On The Legendary Audi Quattro

Digital artist Rastislav Prokop tells us his vision on what a modern Audi Quattro might look like, and the creative process behind it.

The original Audi Quattro is easily one of the most iconic rally cars of all time. Audi used it back in the day to show how many benefits putting AWD in a normal car has, and they went on to completely dominate world rally championships the world over. With the Quattro essentially being the backbone of Audi’s racing heritage and with it holding such an iconic status among enthusiasts and the auto industry, it’s surprising that Audi still hasn’t revived the Quattro in some capacity.

A Fresh New Take On The Legendary Audi QuattroThe Audi Quattro definitely stands out as an iconic, distinctive design. You wouldn’t really mistake its shape and general look for anything else, but nowadays, Audi has moved on to a very different design language, and it’s interesting to take a look and see what sort of shape a new Quattro would take. The artist’s take follows the same general shape, but it also incorporates Audi’s present-day signature design touches. The hexagonal grille in the front, the LED lights, the scoop at the top that’s similar to what we see on the RS6 Avant, and all the like.

Prokop’s vision also keeps the distinctive flared fenders from the original Quattro, and sitting inside those fenders are a set of white five-spoke wheels, which bear more than a passing resemblance to the wheels on the Quattro’s rally car derivatives. The rear gets a subtle lip spoiler, a full-width rectangular light bar with “quattro” in the signature all-lowercase style right in the middle. There’s also a variety of vents and scoops around the car to improve cooling, and a set of side-exit exhausts, similar to those on the Quattro S1, as well as Audi’s A1 Club sport concept car, which eventually morphed into the pocket rocket A1 Quattro.

The Aion Hyper GT Is Part Sports Car And part Family Car

The Tesla Model 3-rivaling Aion Hyper GT is a 335-HP family saloon with gull-wing doors and an insanely low-drag coefficient.

We have had a fair share of Chinese copycat cars over the years. But this has also given aspirational Chinese manufacturers a hard time. However, things are changing currently, and the GAC Aion Hyper GT is a prime example of why the east deserves its due attention. Unlike its wickedly fast sibling, the GAC Aion Hyper SSR, the Hyper GT isn’t an underdog Rimac Nevera rival.

But this four-door sports car takes the fight to the dominating Tesla Model 3. And it has a lot of wild cards to one-up the Tesla. The design is a prime example of beauty and function. The Hyper GT is fluidic and sleek and is God-tier when it comes to drag coefficient numbers. There are some seriously wicked aero tricks on this Chinese EV.

The Aion Hyper GT Is Part Sports Car And part Family CarThe “Wind Blade Grille” located in the lower part of the front bumper, opens up to reduce drag after a certain speed. For added downforce at high speeds, the Hyper GT has taken inspiration from Porsche with its splitting retractable rear wind.

Another cool aspect is the door situation which is the prime reason that we call it “part sports car” and “part family car”. The interior looks to be minimal, luxurious, and quite comfy. And despite having moderate performance figures, the aero-efficient Hyper GT has the zeal to take on most sports cars and even some supercars of the gasoline world.

The GAC Aion Hyper GT is expected to cost around ¥300,000 (~$43,700 in current exchange rates). That’s insane pricing and slots right in between the Chinese pricing of the Tesla Model 3. As for this cool car entering the US? The chances are very slim.

Tesla makes China boss Tom Zhu No. 2 after Elon Musk

Tom Zhu becomes Tesla’s highest-profile executive after CEO Elon Musk, with oversight of deliveries in major markets and operations of key production hubs, according to an internal posting of reporting lines.
