New 2017 Smart Brabus Models Looking To Make Chinese Traffic Lighter

Both the Brabus ForTwo and the ForFour showed up at this year's Beijing Auto Show, bringing with them a more aggressive look and a little bit of turbocharging to settle the nerves.
Unlike in the official press images, the cars that actually set foot in Beijing were a bit more colorful, with the red ForTwo standing out more for obvious reasons. All that red was nicely mixed together with black wheels, creating a powerful contrast that should appeal to a younger audience.
The two-tone ForFour, on the other hand, was looking more stylish than its smaller sibling, though we reckon that aggression is the name of the game when it comes to these types of cars (Brabus), and not a quirky mix of colors.
In terms of performance, the turbocharged 109PS 0.9-liter  engine is also good for 170Nm (125 lb-ft) of torque, resulting in a 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) sprint time of 9.5 seconds for the ForTwo and a top speed surpassing 180 km/h (111 mph).
Unfortunately, those numbers mean that this is a slower car than the previous generation model.

Hennessey Superchargers GMC Yukon Denali To 650 Horses

Hennessey Performance have worked their magic once again, this time on the 2015-2016 Yukon Denali.
Available exclusively on models equipped with the 6.2-liter V8, the HPE650 package has increased the unit's output from the standard 420 HP and 460 lb-ft (624 Nm) of torque to no less than 650 HP at 5,500 rpm and 658 lb-ft (892 Nm) of torque at 4,200 rpm. This translates into a zero to sixty sprint in 4.5 seconds and a quarter mile run in 12.9 seconds, with an exit speed of 106 mph (171 km/h).
Squeezing the extra 230 HP from the GMC Yukon Denali's powertrain was achieved by adding a 2.9-liter supercharger system, high flow intercooler, stainless steel cat-back exhaust and HPE engine management calibration followed by dyno tuning and road testing. All Yukons featuring this upgrade will also benefit from the serial number dash and engine plaques and "HPE650", "Supercharged" and "Hennessey" exterior badges,
On top of the package one can opt for the Hennessey Wheel Upgrade with 22-inch rims, and Brembo 15-inch front brake calipers. The tuner's aftermarket features are coming with a 3-year / 36,000 miles (~58,000 km) warranty, but no pricing details have been released yet.

Official: Novitec Ferrari F12 N-Largo-S

Now it becomes clear why Novitec Rosso made only a handful of the awesome F12 N-Largo in the first round. They were saving the really good stuff for another, much awesomer model. Meet the new Novitec Ferrari F12 N-Largo-S.

Sadly, the production of the “S” version is also limited as they will be building only eleven copies of the styling kit. That means you have better chance of getting one of Ferrari’s own limited edition F12s, the TDF, than one of these. Novitec Ferrari F12 N-Largo-S is a direct answer to the F12tdf, seeing as it boasts an even more massive kit than before and also packs a bigger punch – the same qualities that set the Tour De France apart from the standard Berlinetta.

On the styling front, Novitec Ferrari F12 N-Largo-S gets a number of modifications over the previous version that, though they are small individually, add up to make a profound effect. The S looks miles more aggressive than the regular N-Largo, mainly thanks to a new front fascia, new wide front and rear fenders, more prominent aero parts, and new wheels. As for the performance, the N-Largo-S give the F12tdf a good run for its money with a max output of 781 horsepower the net result of which is a top speed of 350 km/h.
