To give the SLS an even more muscular appearance the Brabus designers have developed custom-tailored Brabus Widestar components for the rear axle. Like all other body components they are made from extremely light yet very strong carbon fibers identical to the ones used in Formula 1 racing. The add-on parts for the rear fenders and the rear fascia create an even more spectacular look and make room for special wheels that widen the rear track by 20 millimeters for even further improved driving dynamics.

The suspension engineers developed custom-tailored versions of the ultralight Brabus Monoblock F Platinum Edition forged wheels in sizes 9.5Jx20 in front and 11Jx21 on the rear axle for the wide version of the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. These wheels are available with a brushed-design or ceramics-polished surface and can also be painted in any desired color. The staggered wheels with 20- and 21-inch diameters on front and rear axles further emphasize the wedge-shaped look of the sports car.



Despite the wheels’ bigger size they deliver a weight reduction of up to 12 percent compared to the SLS production wheels. The reduced unsprung weight further results in even more agile handling. Brabus technology partners Pirelli and Yokohama supply the optimal high-performance tires in sizes 275/30 ZR 20 and 295/25 ZR 21.

The ride-height lowering by up to 30 millimeters (1.2 inches) also plays an important role in the striking appearance of the Brabus-modified SLS. The Brabus suspension is height-adjustable and was developed in cooperation with technology partner Bilstein. At the push of a button its integrated Ride Control function also offers a smoother ride than the production car. From the cockpit the driver can at any time – even while driving – switch between damper settings that offer a more comfortable or a sportier ride than the production car.


The Brabus high-performance exhaust system with four slanted exhaust tips with diameters of 84 millimeters (3.3 inches) is somewhat atypical for traditional tuning. Its sound management, controlled by the driver and activated by a pneumatic flap, includes a ‘coming home’ setting that is quieter than the production exhaust. In ’sport’ mode the 6.3-liter eight-cylinder engine produces an even more powerful exhaust note than with the production exhaust. The Brabus exhaust system is manufactured from extremely lightweight titanium and weighs 12 kilograms (26 lbs.) or 40 percent less than the production exhaust. Another welcome by-product of this exhaust is an increase in power output by 10 hp / 7.4 kW.

American dilemma here for Volkswagen: The fans love the way cars are more expensive brand engineering Their traditional rivals, But It Is Difficult to pass in the Same Quantities Jetta Civic and Corolla cars have cost more expensive for Both When VW & the customer. Because The corporate bosses in Wolfsburg, Germany, want the North American arm to sell Many More cars, faster, Stated With The objective of sales to triple by 2018-they've gone ahead With a new plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and The adapté new Jetta in the U.S. market.

Struggling to keep its leading position in the Chinese market and faced with the task of keeping two very different joint venture partners happy, VW unveils two new cars at Beijing auto show that look familiar to North America and European markets.

The FAW-Volkswagen joint venture early New Bora, another iteration of the last generation Jetta, which was sold as the Bora in many markets and is always available as CityJet Canada.

VW Bora said New design is inspired by the Chinese lion dance, a ceremonial and athletic dance that is supposed to provide opportunities for attendees. design elements Lion dance are incorporated into the rear of the vehicle, VW says.

The New Bora is powered by a choice of two four-cylinder gasoline engines. A six-speed automatic transmission is available. We expect the Comfortline trim level with its chrome package will prove popular. The base model is called Trendline.

VW another Chinese partner, Shanghai Automotive Industry Corp (SAIC), is busy creating new vehicles for its Roewe brand, an offspring of its MG Rover purchase. This could explain why the Lavida compact sedan, developed by Shanghai Volkswagen, moves on a similar architecture. And its wheelbase is identical with FAW New Bora.
