Are you a Lamborghini fan? If you are, this is for
you. RevoZport has presented a tuning package for the Aventador model, that was
called LaMotta, after Giacobbe LaMotta, an American boxer, winner of the World Middleweight
Championship in 1949.

You probably are aware that the standard Aventador
has a 6,5 liter V12 engine, that develops 700 HP and 690 Nm of torque. With the
same engine, the Aventador LaMotta has 820 HP and more torque. Also the tuned
Lamborghini is 80 kg lighter, thanks to the carbon fiber replacements.
The extra HP were obtained by remaping the engine’s
ECU and replacing the exhaust system. The tuning package for Lamborghini’s
Aventador also includes 20 inch wheels in the front and 21 inch wheels in the
back.
Porsche has
updated the specifications of it’s 918 Spyder supercar. If before we knew that

The 0-200 km/h and 0-300 km/h intervals have also been updated. The new 918 can
reach 200 km/h in 7,2 seconds and 300 km/h in 19,9 seconds.

After announcing it in September, Holden has
launched the new 2014 Barina RS. Now you will ask: where have I seen this car
before? Well, basically the car is a rebranded Chevrolet Sonic RS, with the
same specifications:
Holden Barina RS 2014
It has a 1.4 liter, 4 cylinder turbo engine, that is
capable of producing 103 kW and 200 Nm of torque, front wheel drive and a six
speed manual gearbox. If you want, you could choose an automated one, that has
Active Select.

with 10 mm and has been updated with new dampers and stiffer shock absorbers,
for a sportier experience. The new Holden Barina RS has also received new 17
inch wheels, new front and rear fascias and fog lamps.

Maserati has recently released it’s new model: the
2014 Ghibli, also known as “the baby QuattroPorte” and now more photos surface
the web. This is the first Maserati to
be powered by a diesel engine. We are talking about a 3,0 liter V6 turbo
engine, capable of developing 275 HP and 600 Nm of torque. Mated to an
eight-speed automatic transmission, all four wheels launch the car to 100 km/h
in 6.3 seconds. More information can be found in the specifications sheet below.
Maserati Ghibli 2014
But ofcourse if you are not a diesel fan, you can
choose one of the two gasoline versions. One is powered by a 3,0 liter, V6,
twin turbo engine, developing 330 HP and 500 Nm of torque and the other is
powered by ... oh wait, it’s the same engine but it is tweaked to develop 410
HP and 550 Nm of torque. Only 5 seconds are needed by this version of the
Maserati Ghibli to reach 100 km/h, before going for the top speed of 285 km/h.
If you have around 2,2 million Euros and you do not
know what to do with them, I have an idea: you could buy the special edition
Pagani Zonda Revolucion, a supercar designed to mark the end of an era, the
Zonda era. Or you could not ...
Either way, the new Pagani Zonda Revolucion is an
astonishing car, powered by a 6,0 liter V12 engine, capable of developing 800
HP and 730 Nm of torque. More information can be found in the specification
sheet below.
Pagani Zonda Revolucion 2013
If the previous model, the Pagani Zonda RS could
accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3 seconds, we can expect less from the new
Revolucion.

Edition 911. Limited to 1963 units, the supercar is powered by 3.8 liter six

119 Euros.
This is the supercar concept, built by Lamborghini
to celebrate the company’s 50th anniversary and it’s name is
Egoista. At a first look you could say it is a spaceship and not a car, but we
are used to the unique designs that the Italian carmaker has started to present
lately.
Lamborghini Egoista Concept 2013
Based on Lamborghini Gallardo, the supercar concept
will be built in ... wait for it ... no, it will not be built again, it will be
only one copy if this “spaceship”. Since
Lamborghini did not unveil all the specifications, some of them are wild
guesses, based on the Gallardo’s data.
Personally, I like it, for it’s unique design. What
do you think ?
You all know the roadster version of the Italian
supercar Lamborghini Aventador. It is powered by a 6,5 liter V12 engine, capable
of developing 700 HP and 690 Nm of
torque. It has a seven speed ISR semi-automatic transmission and four wheel
drive. All these features allow the car to accelerate from standstill to 97
km/h (60 mph) in just 2.9 seconds, before reaching a top speed of 370 km/h.
If you think these numbers are not enough, you
should get in touch with the German tuners from Wheelsandmore. They took the
standard Lamborghini Aventador Roadster and by performing an ECU remap and
other modifications, they succeeded in obtaining more power. To be more precise, 792 HP and
775 Nm of torque.
Lamborghini Aventador Roadster by Wheelsandmore 2013
They have also updated the exterior of the car and
you have to agree that it looks great! That paintjob and those wheels look
awesome.
Mercedes has unveiled the new generation S-Class and
after a quick look at the stats, it’s obvious that they have raised the

version (with a length of 5,116 meters and a wheelbase of 3,035 meters) and a
long-wheelbase version (with a length of 5,246 meters and a wheelbase of 3,165
meters). Through the drivetrains, the most eco friendly motorization is the
S300 BlueTEC hybrid, with an average fuel consumption of 3,6 l/100 km (at least
on the paper) and 115 grams of carbon/km. More information about the new
Mercedes S300 BlueTEC hybrid can be found in the specification sheet below.

l V6, diesel engine, a S500 with a 4,7 l, V8 petrol engine and a S400 Hybrid,
with a 3,5 l V6 petrol engine.
The S350 BlueTEC can develop 258 HP and 620 Nm of
torque, allowing it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 6,8 seconds, before
reaching a top speed of 250 km/h; the S500 can develop 455 HP and 700 Nm of
torque, allowing it to reach 100 km/h in just 4,8 seconds and an el. limited
top speed of 250 km/h; the S400 Hybrid can develop 306 HP and 370 Nm of torque,
which translates into 6,8 seconds for 100 km/h and an electronically limited
top speed of 250 km/h.
This is the facelift version of the Mercedes-Benz
E400 Cabrio. The German engineers replaced the old V8 engine with a 3,0 l,
twin-turbo, V6 engine, capable of developing 333 HP and 480 Nm of torque. In
other words, the new convertible can accelerate from standstill to 100 km/h in
just 5,3 seconds, before reaching an electronically limited top speed of 250
km/h. More information can be found in the Mercedes-Benz E400 Cabrio
specification sheet below.
