    Visitors of Moscow International Auto Show see for the first time the unique project

    LARTE Design made a blast at the Moscow International Automobile Salon (MIAS) with the reveal of the long-awaited Mercedes GLS Black Crystal project. The vehicle looks imposing with its masculine stance, which has been enhance via more than 50 additional parts, made from exclusive materials like the lightweight carbon fiber and basalt. In addition, the tuning studio did some special painting works, further adding to the strong image of the modified Mercedes GLS.

    After waiting a significant amount of time to see the first photographs of the SUV, we now get to see them and we feel kind of impressed. A lot of craftsmanship is involved here and more importantly, the result is of a stand-out vehicle.

    To go further into details, the new front bumper has features like the carbon fiber inserts and splitter. On its right and left sides we see harmoniously blended elements – the Black Crystal Swarovski, symbolizing the name of the pack. In addition, the radiator grille is adorned by carbon fiber and the logo of the company in the form of a horseshoe.

    The sides have been widened and also feature carbon inserts. The lightweight material is to be all over the car, for instance: the rear bumper which features carbon inserts or the all-carbon dual exhaust tips.

    What is more, as mentioned there is another very strong and extremely light in weight material used in this project. It is namely the basalt, which has been made by vacuum infusion technology. By the sides of the Mercedes GLS Black Crystal stood the V-class Black Crystal vehicle, which features a tuning that shows how one can beautifully transform a minivan like this.

    LARTE Design Mercedes-Benz GLS Black Crystal rear view second teaser

    This image shows the blackout variant of what we have previewed as the latest Black Crystal in LARTE Design’s family. Although we have been left with the impression that the new vehicle will be white, it seems that there is a variant in the opposite color. Whether LARTE will keep both color versions stay unclear.

    What we know so far is that the project, which will be exhibited at the MIAS event in Moscow, is based on the new Mercedes GLS. The Russian studio says that its new project is a marvelous new tuning car, which features a brand new tuning kit.

    Precisely, the latter comprises of a front and rear bumpers with carbon fibre inserts. Since we have only received the image of the rear, what we can spot is that it looks very massive, sporty and aggressive due to the addition of the huge air diffuser, four extraordinary exhaust pipes and a lot of carbon fiber elements.

    Keeping it a secret, the front is said to have a brand new bumper with masculine lines and a new radiator grill sporting the LARTE horseshow logo. At the sides, there will be new side pads which are reminiscent of tuner’s variant of the amazing Mercedes GL Black Crystal. Carbon shielded air intakes will adorn the fenders.

    Besides the GLS Crystal, LARTE Design will basically exhibit its entire portfolio, including the business road-jet Mercedes V-Class Black Crystal and the “electrifying” Tesla Model S Elizabeta. There are rumors that the V-Class will appear with a brand-new front and rear bumpers made of composite materials and decorated with carbon fiber elements, so we are excited to see the change, too.

    Moscow International Automobile Salon (MIAS) opens gates on 24th of August and closes on 4th of September. LARTE Design’s booth is located in hall 3 (pav.13, booth B106).
