  • ABT 2012 Audi RS3

    ABT Sportsline has announced a special tuning program for the hot hatch – Audi RS3.

    The tuned vehicle is powered by a 2.5 liter five-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine with 470PS (346 kW) and 630Nm, instead of 340PS (250 kW) and 450Nm. The results are thanks to a new ABT turbocharger and a modified motor management.

    However, the tuning company offers slightly less powerful version – 420PS (309 kW) for a lot less money.

    Furthermore, you can order the 2-pipe stainless steel ABT exhaust system, ABT light alloy wheels – 19” fitted with 255/30 R19 on the front axle, 225/35 R19 on the rear one.

  • ABT 2012 Volkswagen Beetle

    ABT has introduced a styling and a performance packages for the latest 2012 Beetle. Still, these are just two renderings, but the car will look exactly the same.

    There will be performance mods for the 1.2TSI boosted to 140PS (103 kW), the 1.4TSI will have 210PS (154 kW) and the top-of-range 2.0TFSI will have 240PS (176 kW). The 1.6TDI will gain additional 20PS (15 kW) and the bigger 2.0TDI will have 170PS (125 kW), instead of 140PS (103 kW).

    The styling package consists of a new front bumper, a rear diffuser with oval exhaust pipes and a pair of side skirts. There will be also headlight brows and some nice graphics.

    The stance is improved by installing a set of lowering springs.

    The car stands on Abt DR wheels fitted with low profile tires.

    Everything is good, but still we think that the modified Beetle looks rather sad, mainly because of the ridiculous headlight brows. We hope that ABT will reconsider some touches and make the small city car better.
