  • Kicherer Mercedes-Benz SLS 63 AMG Supercharged GT

    Kicherer Mercedes-Benz SLS 63 AMG Supercharged GT is a flashy, striking and technically well-thought-out vehicle. Maintaining their high standards, Kicherer has utilized in this project a lot of carbon-fibre. In fact we can see it all over the interior as well as exterior.

    To be more precise the exterior package for the SLS consists of a hand-crafted front grille unit with large, vertical fins. This gives the Mercedes’ front look highly aggressive. On top of that, there is a carbon front lip spoiler, a very discreet rear diffusor and carbon fins for the front fenders and the engine bonnet.

    In addition the satin-matte black film covering the complete bodywork further accentuates the lines of the SLS. But what is more important here is that the specialist have designed and produced their own supercharger system, making it world’s first enhanced performance on a SLS.

    The newly-developed supercharger system requires that only very few original parts need to be changed out. For instance the upper engine air intake is retained and no additional deflection. The guide pulleys are required for the belt drive in that way preventing annoying background noise and interference.

    Furthermore, the supercharging pressure from one of the four outlet nozzles is displayed to the driver in digital or analogue from on the tachometer. A special app has been developed to provide additional telemetry data.

    Speaking in numbers the SLS 63 AMG performance is increased to about 700 hp (515 kW) and maximum torque increases to around 840 Nm (620 lb-ft). This means that the acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h is just 3.4 seconds, and, thanks to the removal of the electronic Vmax (maximum speed) blocker, it can reach a top speed of well over 300 km/h.

    Exteriorwise the superchaged car is equipped with tuner’s in-house RS-1 light-weight forged wheels, which are hand-crafted, exclusive and flashy. They come in size 10.0J x 20 inch for the front and 11.5J x 21 inch for the back.

    The tyres choice here is Michelin Pilot Super Sport which gives the vehicle perfect adhesion to the road. Moreover, special high-tech coilovers give superb grip and are equipped with lift function which allows the chassis to be raised and lowered by approximately 30 mm with the press of a button.

  • KICHERER SLS Roadster Supersport GT/R

    In matters of individualisation the traditional tuning house Kicherer has taken on the new AMG Mercedes SLS Roadster.

    True to the company‘s philosophy to consistently only supplement the AMG‘s basic shape and to retain its basic lines, a new, more sporty version of the Roadster was in essence created. Especially the aerodynamics benefited from the high quality final touch. For this the developers created and mounted a sporty front spoiler, side skirts and a specially hand-made GT front grill. More accents are provided by the small aerodynamic fins that can be mounted on the bonnet and on the wings. All the new add-on components created by KICHERER are, of course, made of high quality carbon.

    A further highlight on the sports car is provided by the three-part 20 inch RS-1 lightweight complete wheels.The classic double-spoke design harmonises perfectly with the equally classic sports car silhouette of this retro-sports car.

    In addition, a coilover suspension with a socalled „Front Up“ system is mounted on the car. This not only makes driving more sporty but also suits the vehicle perfectly. Moreover, it also makes it possible to raise the front of the car by just pressing on a button, so that obstacles such underground carpark entry ramps and speed bumps can be more easily overcome.

    On the rear of the car a stainless steel exhaust with four oval endpipes controlled by dynamic pressure sonorously allows the exhaust fumes out into the open. An integrated valve control gives the driver – depending on the occasion – the opportunity of choosing between a sonorous and discrete tone.

    The KICHERER developers have also tightened the performance screw a little and , thanks to the sports air filter exclusive to KICHERER, managed to achieve an actual every day performance of 630 PS – instead of the standard 571 PS. Those who like it even more sporty can order the second performance level. This possesses in addition an exhaust manifold system and a sports catalysor that combined with the modification from the first level guarantee a top performance of 650 PS at 720 Nm torque.

    This means the open air SLS sprints to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds and reaches a sealed-off top speed of 320 km/h.

    Is flying really more exciting???

    However, the tuning company installed a software update and a sports exhaust system to increase the power of the CLS with 62PS and 90Nm. There are no performance data, but a tenth or two of a second will be cut off.

    The car stands on hand-made KICHERER RS-1 20” forged wheels fitted with high-performance tires. There are also 6-piston callipers at the front and 4-piston at the rear of the high performance braking system. With its compound discs and the flexible stainless steel hoses this ensures the appropriate negative acceleration for the performance is produced.
