Hamann Victory II is a Lamborghini Gallardo on steroids

When nothing is ever enough, tweak your Lambo, then tweak it some more



In the past German tuner Hamann had kitted out the Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 with extra grunt and enough cosmetic upgrades to satisfy a rapper but then again there is always this year to top things.

So they came up with the Victory II, the most obvious changes to the uprated model are the doors. Hamann considered the normal swing-out doors heresy so they gave them a pair of swing-out semi-scissors.



They also made the body wider and added more carbon bits to make the car lighter.

Cosmetic upgrades start with a new front apron with carbon centre part, extended side skirts and roof-mounted air intake.

There is also a new rear wing and diffuser to supervise air flow and keep the rump planted when the driver is overcome by red mist.

Rubber now wraps 10-inch Edition Race wheels with special varnishing and that means 235/30ZR20 tyres at the front and 325/25ZR20 tyres at the back. Those 20 per cent profiles really do make them look like the tyres were just sprayed on.

They tweaked the black box to get 580 horsees and 575 Newton meters of torque and the calculator says this translates to a top speed of 328km/h.


They even fitted new end mufflers to make the V10 sound even more melodious.

The legions of Porsche Cayenne fans in Malaysia will be happy to note that German Tuner extraordinaire Hamann has come up with an extreme package for their favourite ride. Changes are both cosmetic and power boost packages for the petrol and diesel variants.

Apart from the front lip and rear lip spoilers and deep side skirts, Hamann figured the perfect wheel-size for the Cayenne is 23-inch so here we see the black anodised version hugging the tarmac for the Cayenne.
lightweight bits include carbon bonnets with power dome and lateral ventilators

Power upgrade packs for the diesel engine improves output from 176 kW/240 hp to 202 kW/275 hp at 4,000 – 4,400 r.p.m. while the torque rises from 550 to 620 Newton metres at 2,000 – 2,250 r.p.m.

Petrol V6 and V8 engines was given audio improvements with sports exhaust which covers the whole product range from sport metal catalysers to end mufflers with four end pipes.

PRESS RELEASE 

December 2010



HAMANN gives the new Porsche Cayenne (958) more profile

The new Porsche Cayenne became significantly more compact when comparing it with its predecessor. With its refining programme, HAMANN-Motorsport follows the new design, but gives the SUV more profile at the same time. With new car body components, an extensive light alloy wheel programme and a powerfully sonorous exhaust system, the HAMANN Cayenne (958) becomes significantly more athletic at the same time. Moreover, HAMANN offers a performance enhancement for the Diesel model.
The Porsche Cayenne already looks very sportive in its original ex factory state. But still, the muscles of the car body can be even more enhanced. Therefore, HAMANN adds a front apron with additional air inlets and integrated daylight LEDs. The bonnet with power dome and lateral air exhausts is entirely made of ultra-light and high-strength carbon. The sides of the Cayenne are adorned with newly designed side skirts. HAMANN perfects also the back of the vehicle with an own invention. A three-part rear spoiler provides room for the earthy sounding sport exhaust system with four stainless steel end pipes.

In order to properly fill out the wheel houses, HAMANN offers a great selection of light-alloy wheels sized 23 inches. With the DESIGN EDITION RACE "ANODIZED", the customer obtains a three-part wheel in cross spoke design with black rim star and high-gloss finished rim flange. The visible bolting is perfected with titanium bolts. The DESIGN UNIQUE FORGED "ANODIZED" is a one-piece black powder-coated light-alloy rim in cross spoke design. Alternatively, there is also the DESIGN UNIQUE FORGED "BRUSHED" in brushed aluminium design. All above mentioned wheels are made in forged technology and are available as complete wheel sets with 315/25 R23 tyres.

For the original Cayenne with ex factory air suspension, HAMANN offers a lowering range of approximately 35 mm in the front and the back.
Exclusively for the Porsche Cayenne Diesel, HAMANN offers a performance increase with optimised engine control. This increases the performance from 176 kW/240 hp to 202 kW/275 hp at 4,000 – 4,400 r.p.m. while the torque rises from 550 to 620 Newton metres at 2,000 – 2,250 r.p.m.
In order to emphasise the sound of the Porsche Cayenne V6- and V8-engines, HAMANN has developed a sport exhaust system which covers the whole product range from sport metal catalysers to end mufflers with four end pipes.
HAMANN enhances the interior with pedal covers made of aluminium, a foot rest and an exclusive floor mat set made of black pearl velour with the HAMANN logo in silver decorative stitching.
