Traditionally a BMW tuning specialist, MANHART Performance, under the leadership of Christoph Erfurt, has expanded its expertise to include vehicles from other manufacturers. A testament to this is the latest masterpiece, the GER 800, based on the Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S 4MATIC+ Coupé of the second generation C167.
Unmatched Power
The GER 800 is a showcase of engineering prowess, featuring a significant performance boost for the 4.0-liter V8 biturbo petrol engine. This engine, already impressive with its mild hybridization, now delivers an astonishing 800 hp and 1,000 Nm of torque. This remarkable increase, up from the stock 612 hp and 850 Nm, is achieved through a MANHART turbo upgrade and the in-house MHtronik powerbox. Additionally, MANHART OPF-Delete Sport downpipes with 300-cell catalytic converters contribute to this power, though they are intended for export due to TÜV regulations.
Enhanced Suspension and Wheels
To complement the enhanced power, the GER 800’s suspension has been meticulously upgraded. Modifications to the standard air suspension lower the vehicle by 30 millimeters, a change also achievable through new coupling rods. This modification ensures that the MANHART Concave One rims, with their satin black finish and yellow trim strips, align perfectly under the arches. The rims, measuring 10.5×23 inches at the front and 12×23 inches at the rear, are paired with 285/35ZR23 and 325/30ZR23 tires, respectively. The OEM brake calipers, painted yellow, add a striking visual contrast, with custom upgrades available upon request.
Striking Design
Visually, the GER 800 stands out with a MANHART carbon-fiber widebody kit by TopCar Design, giving the SUV coupé an aggressively sporty look. The matte dark green bodywork is adorned with a signature MANHART decal set in yellow, enhancing its bold appearance. Inside, the transformation continues with a luxurious black and yellow MANHART Alcantara leather interior, complete with matching floor mats.
