A Space-Inspired Rolls-Royce Cullinan Blue Shadow Edition

May 30, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The Kármán Line, which marks the starting point of outer space above the Earth’s surface, serves as an inspiration for the new Rolls-Royce Cullinan Black Badge Blue Shadow Private Collection.

There are already reservations for all 62 of the luxury automaker’s limited production models.

The Company Is Making Just 62 Of Them

The darkness of space and the azure sky of Earth collide at the Kármán Line. This Cullinan takes inspiration from this phenomena and paints the SUV a bespoke shade of Stardust Blue with black accents. It features a satin finish on the grille. We apply a transparent lacquer on the wheels.

A limited edition Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament is also included with the special edition. It is made of blue-tinted lacquer over titanium that was 3D printed.

The name Blue Shadow and the Black Badge infinity emblem are engraved on the base by the business. This portion is inlaid by artisans in the color Charles Blue.

The dashboard and door panels inside change color from bottom to top, going from black to blue to white. To get this appearance, Rolls-Royce applies six coats of paint in five different colors. Blue and transparent glass granules are combined with a clear finish on top.

Another striking feature of this Cullinan is a unique edition of the brand’s Starlight Headliner. There are five different colors of thread used to give the image of the moon, complete with craters, a textured aspect. It will take two days and 250,000 individual stitches to finish the pattern. There are 384 blue LEDs and 799 white LEDs.

The chairs also get extraordinary information. A design made of leather perforations is inspired by the view of Earth from orbit. Over 75,000 tiny holes, which a craftsperson manually drills into each chair, are present. The tables in the rear include an aluminum inlay and a Piano Black veneer with a glass sparkle finish.

On the dashboard sits an unusual clock. It contains Blue Shadow etching and light blue anodized portions.

The Cullinan Black Badge Blue Shadow has a number of wonderful extras. The design of the seats matches that of the vehicle cover. The SUV’s cargo is the same color as its body.

Customers may order a 1:8 scale replica of the unique car that has working interior and exterior illumination.

Its front wheels receive 147 horsepower and 220 Nm of torque from a 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that is mated to a 7-speed DCT automated transmission.

The SUV includes Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA), and Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) components. McPherson Struts are used for the front suspension, while Torsion Bar Coil Springs are used for the rear suspension.

Carlex Design Gives The Ferrari Purosangue A Two-Tone Makeover With 23-Inch Rims

May 18, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The Ferrari Purosangue, the brand’s first four-door vehicle, debuted in September, and Carlex Design is already giving it a facelift. The aftermarket expert now provides a two-tone paint scheme for the new model as part of an interior and exterior design package.

The Tuner’s Cabin Is Decorated With A Green And White Color Scheme

Racing Green was painted on the top of the Purosangue by Carlex, who contrasted it with brushed silver on the bottom to give the Ferrari a stunning look. From the front, the green on top stretches over the hood and wraps around the greenhouse until ending at the top of the rear hatch.

Specifications:

Although the powertrain is unchanged, there shouldn’t be any issues. The Ferrari has a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine that produces 528 pound-feet of torque and 715 horsepower. The Purosangue, according to the company, can accelerate to 62 mph in 3.3 seconds and has a peak speed of more than 192 mph.

Ferrari Purosangue By Carlex Design Interior

All four wheels receive power from its eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, however the front-wheel drive system does disengage depending on the gear and speed.

Although Ferrari’s first four-door model could appear to be a blunder for the venerable sports car manufacturer, demand has been strong ever since it was introduced.

The business disclosed earlier this month that it had enough orders for Purosangue to stay busy till 2025. Because of the enthusiastic early reaction from clients, it also opened the order books again after closing them.

In the upcoming months and years, we anticipate seeing additional improvements and kits for the four-door Ferrari as tuners and specialists start fiddling. The entire conversion is available through Carlex for €61,500 ($66,618 at the current currency rate). Customers may, however, choose to purchase the exterior, interior, and rim packages separately for €16,500, €36,00, and €12,000 ($17,873, $38,996, and $12,998).

The 2024 Land Rover Range Rover SV Will Have A 606-HP Hybrid V8 And A 542-HP PHEV 550e

May 18, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

Despite the fact that the current Range Rover generation is by no means outdated, Land Rover has decided to increase the power for 2024. You may now control over 600 horsepower when you go behind the wheel of a Range Rover SV.

The Beginning Cost Rises To $108,895 Additionally, A New Bespoke SV Service Provides A Wide Range Of Personalization Choices

The 2024 Range Rover’s 4.4-liter twin-turbocharged V8 receives mild hybrid technology, but the major news is a new 606-hp V8 option that is only available on the Range Rover SV.

The engine produces 553 pound-feet of torque, but if you find that to be a bit excessive, the 3.0-liter six-pot plug-in hybrid now has 542 combined horsepower in 550e trim.

The PHEV’s 0-60 mph time is reduced to 4.8 seconds as a result, and if you use a light throttle, you can go 51 miles on electricity alone. Strangely, Land Rover doesn’t estimate the Range Rover SV’s peak speed or acceleration.

The IT division has seen significant adjustments as well. The company’s Pivi Pro infotainment system, which is accessed through the 13.1-inch center screen, is upgraded for the 2024 Range Rover.

Better roll control is provided throughout corners thanks to Dynamic Response Pro, which first appeared on the Range Rover Sport. The Terrain Response 2 system of the 2024 Range Rover has adaptive off-road cruise control when travelling off-road.

The SUV’s speed may be automatically adjusted in four different scenarios, allowing the driver to effortlessly navigate clear of (or over) obstacles.

McLaren F1 Driver Lando Norris Picks Up His Custom 765LT Spider From MSO

May 16, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The 720S-based 765LT Spider was first offered by McLaren over two years ago, and even though the 750S is now formally available, the British sports car manufacturer is still able to provide the track-focused convertible.

Lando Norris, a driver for the Formula 1 team, is the most recent client to take possession of a long-tailed spider’s keys. One of just 765 units made, it boasts a few exclusive McLaren exclusive Operations (MSO) additions and a lot of carbon fiber.

With Yellow Highlights To Match His Helmet, The Supercar Is Finished In Carbon Blue

The 23-year-old racing driver is shown travelling to pick up his prized item in a new video posted by McLaren Automotive on YouTube. Given that Lando is British, you’re probably asking why the 765LT Spider was requested with left-hand drive specifications at this point. He just relocated to Monaco, thus he no longer resides in the UK.

His helmet is referenced by the contrasting yellow highlights on the brake calipers and body, and his race number is linked to the four stripes. The headrests have embroidered “LN” emblems so everyone knows whose car this is.

There is also a unique plaque that says the 765LT was “exclusively commissioned for Lando Norris by MSO,” but it withholds the production number.

The autographs of various persons engaged in the creation of the automobile, including McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown, complete the distinctive touches. While Carlos Sainz, another F1 driver, chose a coupe at the start of the year, Lando chose a convertible. Despite the fact that both vehicles are supercars, the 765LT has a twin-turbo V8 and the 812 Competition has a normally aspirated V12.

The seven-speed, dual-clutch automatic gearbox that powers the 4.0-liter engine’s 590 pound-feet (800 Newton-meters) of torque and 755 horsepower sends the power to the wheels. On its way to 205 mph (330 km/h), it allows the McLaren 765LT hit 62 mph (100 km/h) in only 2.8 seconds and 124 mph (200 km/h) in 7.2 seconds.

Even though McLaren now has an electric V6, eight-cylinder power won’t be going away anytime soon. It has signed a contract for a new hybrid V8 engine that will be used in next supercars and, ideally, a hypercar.

For The 24 Hours Of Le Mans, Porsche Has Unveiled A New Livery

April 29, 2023 / By Zunair Tahir / Automotive News

The updated color scheme honors the 75th anniversary of the brand and the 100th anniversary of a race that Porsche Penske Motorsport has won a record 19 times overall with its three entries in the double-points round of the World Endurance Championship on June 10–11.

Along with the two entries for the entire season, the extra car entered in the French endure also commemorates Porsche’s birth anniversary by racing with the number #75.

There are 15 stripes in the livery, which flow from the nose to the back of each car.

Each shade honors an endurance racer and the colors it competed in throughout Porsche’s lengthy sports car history.

Livery at the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the Porsche 963 and Porsche Penske Motorsport

While the green and blue are from the 917L Martini International “hippy car” that finished second at Le Mans in 1970, the orange pays homage to the Gulf-sponsored 917Ks driven by the JW Automotive team in 1970 and 1971.

Red and yellow stripes pay homage to the Porsche RS Spyder LMP2, which won 11 outright victories and three American Le Mans Series championships from 2006 to 2008.

The dorsal fins of the three vehicles will differ in color: the #5 will be black, the #6 will be white, and the #75 will be red.

Thomas Laudenbach, head of Porsche Motorsport, said: “I have no doubt that this design will quickly win over enthusiasts.

“At Le Mans, we embraced the car designs from Porsche’s storied and renowned heritage.

Livery at the 24 Hours of Le Mans for the Porsche 963 and Porsche Penske Motorsport

“The 917 dressed as a ‘pink pig’ and the ‘hippy car’ from 1970 are two liveries that have shaped racing history and are still in demand today.

“We’re continuing this great tradition at Le Mans with our special design on the three Porsche 963,”

The tradition of Porsche sporting unique liveries at Le Mans has persisted into the present day.

The three 919 Hybrid LMP1s entered in 2015 each raced in a distinctive color, while two of the four 911 RSRs in the GTE Pro class competed in Le Mans-themed liveries in 2018.

One was styled like the ‘pink pig’ 917/20 that competed in the 24 Hours in 1971, while the other was painted in hues reminiscent of their Rothmans-sponsored 956 and 962 Group C cars from the 1980s.
