Hartmann – Automobiles Review

Hartmann team reveals a moving conference room – check it out!

2018 Hartman Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Hartmann, a tuning studio that specializes in upgrading exclusively Mercedes-Benz machines, has recently revealed its latest project – a fully renovated Sprinter that incorporates parts and systems from different studios and machines and showcases a rather satisfying final result. Let’s check it out!

The body kit is from “SP Stream” customizing range in which Hartmann team has been developing additions for their vehicles for years. The front-end is supplemented by a sexy skirt and spoiler attachment, rocker panels and four-piece rear skirt with SP Stream conversion kit. Furthermore, a perfect addition to the customizing is the set of wheels – these bad boys are 9×20 HALSA 2 rims, wrapped in 255/45/ R20 Continental tires as standard. Sweet!

In terms of interior, the team has included a large table – the idea is to turn the cabin in a moving conference room and include all kind of utilities and goodies. The table is mounted on the factory-made flop mounts for the car seats and features safety box and security control. In fact, Hartmann team is open for different interpretations – their other idea is a “motorcycle lounge” that includes space for four occupants and two motorcycles. As it seems, it all depends on customer’s choice and preferences. Enjoy!

HARTMANN shows off with a job well-done!

2017 HARTMANN Sprinter Have you noticed that there is something super badass about vans? And especially these, created with a sporty spirit and additional tuning features? In fact, we do like vans a lot for some reason. And here’s good news for us: the VANSPORTS Camper. It is menacing, stealthy and super flexible. Here’s why!

First of all, the sweet vehicle have undergone some exterior modifications and changes: there are new front spoiler, side sills and rear apron installed, all along with neat alloys by VEST in matte-gray-metallic finish. Furthermore, the design team has also included fresh radiator grille, door handles, mirror caps and an a/c cover for the roof.

All these additions contribute to the overall massive, muscular and aggressive appearance of the van. And we like it. In fact, we like it a lot! We have to admit that this sweetie is a bit bulky, but we would give it a chance.

However, the most interesting part of the vehicle is the heavily modified interior. First of all, there is a special anti-drumming coating and isolation, followed by an aluminum system floor, exclusively by Schhierle that secures the single seats. There is also something else that was especially created by Schnierle: the three movable single seats that are covered with black Gaucho-leather and contrast seamps and waffle patterns. Furthermore, there are some Alcantara-covered details as the door panels and the lower dashboard, while the roof liner is coated with black microfiber.

And the best part? Well, there are numerous utility goodies, but here we will review just some of them: driver and passengers will be pleased to know that there are folding table, side panel cabinets, two folding beds, an extra vehicle batter, LED-living space illumination and tons of other cool details that altogether do make a difference.

Hartmann Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 319 CDI

Hartmann Tuning has unveiled their latest project based on a facelifted Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 319 CDI. The tuning specialists has reworked the big vehicle almost entirely. Hartmann Sprinter comes with complete body kit, new wheels and improved interior.

The exterior boasts a new front and rear bumpers as well as a pair of redesigned side skirts and a new set of fog lights. There is also a nice “red and racy paint” finish and huge alloy wheels – 9J x 20” Zaro fitted with 265/45 R20 tires.

The interior features a leather-wrapped steering wheel, carbon fiber applications and chromed sill plates. Other upgrades include a leather shift knob, leather upholstery with red stitching, as well as an Alcantara trim on the doors.

Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 319 CDI is powered by a 3.0 liter DOHC V6 diesel with 184HP (135 kW) and 400Nm (295 lb-ft) of torque. Although, the big van is not quite fast, it can embarrass a lot of everyday small city cars. If, the 319 CDI gets and ECU re-map, it will easily develop over 220HP (162 kW) and 500Nm (370 lb-ft) of torque.

The first generation Sprinter was launched back in 1995 to replace the famous but outdated Mercedes-Benz TN, which was on the market since 1977. The Sprinter immediately became best-seller and was voted International Van of the Year for 1995. The all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter comes with super-efficient and powerful engines, a lot of extras and ever AWD system.

VANSPORTS by Hartmann Present the Mercedes-Benz Citan MetroStream

VANSPORTS-Mercedes-Benz-Citan-shadow Well, here’s something different. VANSPORTS – which are, apparently, a derivative of Hartmann Tuning – have turned a normal Mercedes-Benz Citan into a hotshot delivery van. It’s a bit like a senior citizen wearing trainers and a side-ways baseball cap.

So, most of the modifications are courtesy to this “MetroStream design programme”. It consists of a redesigned front grille, new front bumper with sporty vents on it on it and a splitter, a rear diffuser, and side skirts even. Behind the curtains, a sport suspension kit lowers the Citan by with 25 mm. Best of all, though, is that VANSPORTS offer performance upgrades as well. Nothing too serious. Just some chip tuning, that’s all. The biggest Citan engine (the 111 CDI) can gain around 18 hp and 30 newton meters in torque. That’s 127 hp and 270 Nm of torque in total power. Cough in even more and you’ll get the VANSPORTS electronic accelerator pedal kit which supposedly improves engine feedback and response

VANSPORTS, as the name suggests, deals with vans, and transporters, and commercial vehicles, and such: Opel’s Nissans, Renaults, you name it. We think that’s kind of neat. Otherwise, what would delivery companies that want to step up their game do?

Someone’s at the door. Must be that thing we ordered from that other place 15 minutes ago.

Hartmann Vansports Volkswagen T5 Prime

Hartmann Vansports Volkswagen T5 Prime is powerful and stylish, and although it is based on a van, it looks better, sportier and more luxurious.

Hartman has added more power and dynamic to the Volkswagen by upgrading the engine. In details, the Vansports electronic Diesel-Performance-Kit pushes the 2.0 TDI from 103 kW (140 hp) up to 122 kW (165 hp), and the torque from 340 Nm (460 lb-ft) up to 395 Nm (535 lb-ft). If the bus is equipped with the 2.0 BiTDI then the transformation is from 132 kW (180 hp) up to 156 kW (212 hp), torque from 400 Nm (542 lb-ft) up to 460 Nm (623 lb-ft).

The driving fun is further enhanced thanks to the Hartmann’s sport-exhaust-system and an electronic accelerator pedal kit. What they do is basically to optimize the standard signal in the T5, which allows a significantly shorter reaction response during acceleration.

Furthermore, the sports suspension which has been added is giving a better visual outlook to the van. In addition it enhances the road handling for all steering, acceleration and braking maneuvers without sacrificing any comfort.

In particular, the sport suspension brings the T5 30 mm closer to the road. Additional visual highlights are the front spoilers, the side-skirts and the rear skirt extension, as well as the light alloy wheel program.

The wheel design here is created by VEST 3 and the size is 9 x 20 inches coming along with 275/35 R20 Tires. At last, the interior styling of this vehicle offers velour carpeting with an embroidered Hartmann emblem, antiskid rubber-knobs and interior parts in carbon optic.
