2023-12-14 EST 02:30:50

Not only does the Geneva Motor Show bring you the latest production models and innovative concept cars but custom tuned cars also make it to the centre stage with their chrome wrapped, lustrous gold or diamante carbon fibre cladding extravagant models.

Here is our top five tuned cars from the Geneva Motor Show.

Techart’s Porsche 911 Turbo S

Tuned cars of Geneva

Techart presented a modified Porsche 911 Turbo S with a subtle body kit that features a new spoiler as well as brand new wheels and of course an increase in performance.

The car is equipped with a TA 091/T1.1 power kit from Techart based on the company’s intelligent management system called Techtronic which enables the turbocharged 3.8-litre six-cylinder engine to develop 456 kW and 830 Nm of torque – an increase of 44 kW and 130 Nm. This enables the model to complete the 0-100 km/h sprint in 2.8 seconds before hitting a top speed of 328 km/h – improvements of 0.3 seconds and 10 km/h respectively.

Hamann Lamborghini Aventador Limited

Motorsport specialist Hamann introduced the limited Lamborghini Aventador with new alloy wheels, custom-made carbon air vent inserts, and a two-piece front spoiler made of the same high strength racing material. Hamann has also replaced the Aventador’s back-end with its own design, made completely out of carbon fibre.

Power from the 6.5-litre V12 unit has been pushed up from 515 kW and 690 Nm to 559 kW and 735 Nm of torque.

Carlsson CS50 Versailles

Tuning company Carlsson decided to drape the recent Mercedes-Benz S Class in shimmering 1000 sheets of gold leaf which were applied in a process that took over 200 man hours.

Specifically developed for China’s ultra-wealthy ‘Taipan’ clients, the CS50 Versailles is customised with 278 interior and 30 exterior components that receive a lustrous gold finish. There are also exterior elements such as the radiator grille, door handles, and grille inserts in the front bumper left glistening with a rich golden sheen.

Three different models will be available and the range-topping CS65 Versailles has a twin-turbo V12 engine that has been tuned to develop 515 kW and 1050 Nm of torque. Production will be limited to 25 units.

Mansory Rolls-Royce Wraith

Modification specialists Mansory, from Brand in Bavaria, gave the Rolls-Royce Wraith extra elegance and, at the same time, individuality with the two-tone chrome and petrol blue exterior paint scheme along with an aerodynamic body kit.

Also new are the large 22-inch ultra-light forged alloy wheels wrapped around in 265/35 tyres from Vredestein while inside, there’s beige leather upholstery along with carbon fibre and multi-coat piano lacquer accents.

The Wraith’s 6.6-litre V12 has been tuned to deliver 544 kW and 1000 Nm of torque, making it 79 kW and 200 Nm more powerful.

AC Schnitzer BMW X5

AC Schnitzer BMW X5

AC Schnitzer brought their latest BMW creation, the X5, fitted with a unique tri-turbo 320 kW 3.0-litre diesel engine. The model features a sports suspension which has been lowered by 30mm up front and 20mm at the back lowering the centre of gravity for better handling and a more agile feel.

There are also various alloy wheel designs in sizes ranging from 20-22-inch, different tailpipe finishers, updated front skirt, redesigned rear apron, bespoke floor mats, an aluminium pedal set and even a custom key holder.
