The Successful Seven: 7 times more ABT POWER for the latest Passat

The Volkswagen Passat is a car for almost anybody. No wonder, then, that it comes with many different engines. ABT Sportsline, having enhanced this medium-sized car since its launch in 1973, takes account of this diversity: from now on seven different ABT POWER variants are available.

One will increase the highly efficient 1.4 TSI’s power from 150 hp (110 kW) to 180 hp or 132 kW and its torque from 250 to 290 Nm. The 1.9 TSI will now show 210 hp or 154 kW (production car: 180 hp/132 kW). Here, torque is also up, from 250 Nm to 310 Nm.

With the turbocharged 2.0 engine, the most powerful one, the TSI is rated 336 hp (247 kW), up from 280 hp or 206 kW. But ABT also turns the 220 hp (162 kW) variant into a dynamic piece of engineering: 290 hp or 213 kW are quite something, with torque in both engines now at 420 Nm (production version: 350 Nm).

And the latest Passat is also successful with its 2l turbo diesel. The leading enhancer of cars produced by the Volkswagen Group has three upgrades available: the 150 hp (110 kW) version is now rated at 170 hp (125 kW) and 380 Nm (production car: 340 Nm), the 190 hp (140 kW) at 215 hp (158 kW) and a torque of 440 Nm (production car: 400 Nm). The most powerful 2.0 TDI version now shows 270 hp or 199 kW, up from 240 hp (176 kW). Its maximum torque is now an incredible 540 Nm (production version: 500 Nm). This ABT Passat doesn’t only attract fans, it also gets them wherever they may want to go.

But whatever engine and ABT POWER variant you may choose, the perfectly designed body kit will always fit: front skirt add ons, front grille add ons, side skirt add ons, mirror covers, a rear spoiler and the rear skirt add ons incl. an exhaust system and tail trim on the right as well all make this Volkswagen appear even more assertive.

These components underscore the car’s racy touch, even more so in conjunction with
ABT springs and a CoG lowered by 35mm on the front axle and 30mm in the rear. The ABT sport-type anti-roll-bars also make for a better handling. And the ABT sport-type wheels go very well with the extra power and the assertive look – and with whatever wheel you choose: the CR, DR, ER or FR in 18’’ to 20’’ or the DR also in 21’’. Needless to say that the wheels also come complete with high-performance tires.

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Volkswagen’s Gone to California with Grand California Camper

Volkswagen is bringing the California XXL concept to production. It will debut at the Dusseldorf Caravan Salon as the Grand California. It’s set to be based on the medium wheelbase Crafter van. That’s the company’s full-size commercial van, larger than the T6 Transporter based California. The high roof means room for adults to stand up, though it won’t get the concept’s extended length. The Grand California offers a full wet bathroom. It’s not exactly spacious, though, measuring in at around 31.5 x 33-inches. A toilet, shower, and sink are all crammed into that space, but at least there are motion sensor lights to stop you from reaching for a switch. Standard, the Grand California it comes with berths for two adults. Space for two children is optional, but they’ll be stuck in a berth amove the driver’s area. The kitchen offers a sink, stove, and two fridges. The front seats swivel to add seating space when the RV is parked. It’s also got solar panels, an integrated satellite dish,...

Novitec, Unsatisfied with Aventador SV, Adds More Veloce

The Lamborghini Aventador SV is no slouch, but if you’re into Lamborghinis, chances are you’re into big numbers. Whether it’s in the bank or under the hood, a big number could, and perhaps should, always be bigger, which is where Novitec steps in. Novitec has been modifying Italian cars for years, and their Torado line is dedicated to making ridiculous Lamborghinis even more ridiculous. Their latest effort takes the Aventador SV and remaps the engine to give it 786hp and 544 lb-ft of toque. They’ve also fitted the car with a new exhaust system that cuts 50 lbs off the car. Other mods include a carbon fiber aero package, spoiler, front splitter and air intake, all of which helps it shed even more weight. The Aventador also sits on 21 (back) and 20 (front) inch Vossen wheels. So if you think that a regular Aventador is just a little too pedestrian, give Novitec a call and they’ll hook you up.
