The tuning company is offering a multitude of modifications for a number of models from the CLS range, but the company is trying to make us pay attention to the CLS 63 AMG tuning package. The vehicle’s 5.5 liter biturbo V8 unit now delivers 600 hp, with the tuner also upgrading the connection to the road by installing the C-Tronic suspension for vehicles that come with the Airmatic suspension. The car rides on a set of 20-inch rims, which bring a 40 percent weight reduction, compared to the factory wheels. The exterior of the CLS has been gifted with a subtle aerodynamic package that consists of a new front bumper, that comes with a carbon fiber lip and stainless steel mesh grille and a fresh rear bumper, which houses a diffuser, a set of oval tailpipes and the third brake light. “Carlsson chief designer Rolf Schlepp incorporates coupé-style contours and lends the vehicle’s exterior a touch of sophistication with the comprehensive aerodynamics package,” stated the press release. As for the interior, this brings an explosion of premium materials, offering goodies such as a Nappa leather finish, black piano wood trimming and others. autoevolution will be attending the 2011 Geneva Motor Show, so stay tuned for some real up close and personal shots of the vehicles, as well as for first-hand details of the motorized contraptions presented at the event.
