MANSORY, the renowned fine tuning specialist of super sports cars and luxury sedans presents its new customization of the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG at the International Motor Show (IAA) in Frankfurt, Germany. But the redesign didn't stop at the chassis, the engine has undergone modifications by using MANSORY's compressor technology. Ultra-light forged wheels and an interior that is nothing short of automotive extravagance bring the overall redesign to a full circle.
During the development, MANSORY paid special attention to the individual design of the chassis components, making no compromises when it comes to aerodynamic efficiency and significant weight optimization. In order to reduce inert masses, MANSORY uses ultra-light and high-strength carbon to manufacture its chassis components.
Part of the new body kit is a front lip spoiler with a sporty dynamic look. This complements the production series bumper and due to its well engineered shape it reduces the lift at the front axle. The new carbon bonnet and illuminated, gills along side the wings bring the MANSORY refinement to full circle. The new side skirts provide the visual link between the front and rear fenders. The new rear lip spoiler and optimised diffuser provide additional lift and perfect the elegant lines of the styling package.
The wheel houses of the MANSORY SLS are filled with exclusively forged wheels. The 9.5x20 inch wheels with 275/30 tyres at the front and 11.5x21 inch wheels with 295/25 tyres at the rear axle are provided by Michelin, MANSORY's partner. Thanks to a new suspension and shock absorbers, two-seater's centre of gravity is 20 mm lower than the basic model and therefore emphasises the exclusive rims even more.
Core of the engine modification is the installation of the high-performance compressor units. A sports air filter and a stainless steel sports exhaust system are also utilised. These components are precisely adjusted to one another with the help of a new characteristics map for the engine's electronic system. Reaching a top performance of 732 HP/539 kW at 6500 RPM and a maximum torque of 825 Nm at 5600 RPM, the MANSORY engine meets exactly what its ambitious motor sports clientele is looking for.
As usual, MANSORY turns the interior into a highly functional control centre with quality and innovative design that is second to none. Only the finest materials find their way into the car's interior, ensuring the greatest sense of comfort. Master craftsmen apply their skills using leather that is hard-wearing, yet exceptionally soft. The characteristic, natural product with its special grain and the perfect decorative stitching by the hands of a true professional convey a stylish elegance all around the newly designed airbag steering wheel. The aluminium pedal system and the real carbon applications complete the luxurious overall impression of the MANSORY Gullwing.
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.
