Lorinser's Stealthily Tuned 2010 Mercedes E-Class Sedan

Finally, a tuning proposal that our taste buds can relate to - the new Lorinser-prepped 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan. The German tuning firm has taken well care of the new E-Class sedan's body and engine with a series of modifications that include the sharp looking bodykit that consists of new bumpers, side skirts, a new front grille, discreet boot lid and roof spoilers, dark headlamp covers and a pair of fender "gills". The cars looks are rounded off with a set of five-spoke alloy wheels.

For now, Lorinser has turned its focus on the E500 which gets a power kit that increases the 5.5-liter V8 engine's output from 388HP to 435HP while maximum torque has been raised from 530Nm to 570Nm. The Lorinser E500 also does away with the electronic speed limiter allowing the German premium sedan to reach a top speed of 280km/h or 174MPH.

Other mechanical upgrades include a new lowered sports suspension that promises to further improve the E500 sedan's handling.

Lorinser Readying Performance Package for new Mercedes E-Class

One by one, Mercedes-Benz tuning specialists are releasing details on their new performance and styling packages for the recently revealed E-Class W212. Lorinser has issued two renderings of an E-Class dressed with its currently under development bodykit that includes a new front bumper, a rear apron with an integrated diffuser, side sills, wider fenders, a discreet boot spoiler, side air vents plus newly designed alloy wheels.

Mechanical upgrades will include a new performance kit for the top-of-the-line E500 model. With the aid of special camshafts, an upgraded exhaust system and an adjusted control unit, the 5.5-liter V8 churns out a hefty 435HP, up from the factory version's 388HP, while maximum torque has been raised from 530Nm to 570Nm. Thanks to the removal of the electronic speed limiter, Lorinser's E500 can reach a top speed of 280km/h or 174MPH. Other modifications include a lowered sport suspension.

Lorinser Mercedes-Benz C-Class Estate

The all-new 2008 Mercedes-Benz Estate has proven quite popular among European based tuners as following propositions from Brabus and Carlsson, Lorinser presented its version of the luxury station wagon. The tuning firm’s full body aero kit consists of front and rear aprons, side skirts with five gill-like air inlets, a honeycomb sport grill, wide fenders with large air inlets on the side complemented by 8.5x19 inch Lorinser RS8 rims in turbine design. -Continued

An upgrade is available for the C 200 Kompressor model that boosts the vehicle’s performance from 184 hp to 218 hp and torque from 250 Nm to 295 Nm. This added power is achieved by installing a modified engine control unit along with altered belt pulleys, drive belts and a different air filter. The C 350 with its V6 unit features modified camshafts increasing performance from 272 hp to 305 hp, while the torque jumps from 350 Nm to 380 Nm.

The diesel powered C 200 CDI’s output can be upgraded from 136 hp to 156 hp, which translates into a torque boost from 270 Nm to 360 Nm while the C 220 CDI’s standard performance is enhanced from 170 hp to 191 hp and 480 Nm of torque (standard: 400 Nm). The top of this line of upgraded Diesel vehicles is the C 320 CDI, which features a standard performance of 224 hp and a maximum torque of 510 Nm. Lorinser’s engineers managed to draw out 261 hp and 580 Nm from the V6 diesel unit.

Lorinser Smart Fortwo 104 HP

The Swabian tuning firm has released more details on its Smart Fortwo sport packages. The top version fitted with the 84 HP three-cylinder turbo engine has been enhanced to deliver 104 HP which allows the car to go up to 180 km/h or 112 mph (standard car’s top speed is electronically limited to 145 km/h or 90 mph). That might sound silly to most, but don’t forget that it's one thing going 112 mph in a C-Class and another in a car that's shorter than your bed… -Continued after the jump

As for the other versions of the new Fortwo, Lorinser boosts the 61 HP edition’s output to 71 HP allowing it to achieve a top speed of 156 km/h or 97 mph. Likewise, the 71 HP edition can be upgraded to deliver an output of 77 HP. In this case top speed is 160 km/h or 99 mph.

Along with the full bodykit that includes fender extensions, Lorinser equips the Fortwo with gigantic (for the size of the car) 8.5x17 inch aluminum rims with 245/35R17 tyres on the rear and 7x17 inch rims with 215/40R17 tyres on the front.

The interior of the Lorinser Smart gets carbon-accented parts, a brushed-aluminum clock, revolution counter and speedometer as well as a specially designed HiFi and navigation system.

Lorinser Mercedes SL Nardo3: Top Speed 202 Mph - 325 km/h

Lorinser’s 660 HP Mercedes-Benz SL Nardo3 managed to achieve a top speed of 202 mph or 325 km/h at the Nardo race circuit in Southern Italy. Based on the 612 Hp Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG, the limited edition Nardo3 (only 50 units will be sold worldwide) is equipped with a slightly modified version of the standard V12 Biturbo engine delivering 660 HP and 1,013 Nm or 747,2 lbs of maximum torque. -Continued

“The Nardo3 is a race machine designed for the road. The goal we tried to achieve with this design was to allow the driver to have as much fun as possible and, at the same time, enjoy the atmosphere the car creates,” explains Marcus Lorinser, Managing Director of the Winnenden maker.

Exterior-wise, the flanks of the vehicle are marked by the aggressive front and rear bumpers, widened fenders, and gigantic air intakes. The latter are used for effectively deflecting the heat generated by the engine and brakes.

The vehicle’s interior, on the other hand, retains all the creature comforts including seats that are both comfortable and provide sufficient support as well as the opulent and comprehensive Alcantara interior equipment.
