KONI Updates Shocks for Passat

At the request of the VW tuner and enthusiast community, KONI has tested and approved the KONI Sport and KONI FSD struts and shocks for the USA built 2012-2016 Volkswagen Passat known as the NMS (New Midsize Sedan) chassis. The adjustable KONI Sport part numbers 8741 1488SPORT and 8040 1352SPORT as well as the patented ride control technology of KONI FSD (Frequency Selective Damping) part number 2100 4026 can officially be used on both US and European built Passats for improved handling performance, ride quality, and tuning adjustability. These KONI dampers are available and shipping to dealers and consumers in North America now and carry the standard KONI limited lifetime warranty.

SPORT KONl Sport struts and shocks are the industry leader in externally adjustable damping, establishing the ultimate user control. By easily adjusting between a soft comfortable ride setting to a more firm aggressive ride, KONI Sport transforms the “daily driver” into the weekend track machine without hassle. With its very broad range of adjustability, KONI SPORT is a great choice to upgrade a stock, original equipment (OE) suspension or when matched with lowering springs and other performance upgrades for better handling and a more aggressive look and road feel. KONI Sport carries a limited lifetime warranty as with most KONI products.
FSD KONI FSD (Frequency Selective Damping) patented technology is the first premium no-compromise shock absorber in the world. FSD offers superior performance handling when installed on a original equipment (OE) suspension or when matched with other performance upgrades without degrading ride quality for cars and light trucks, SUVs, motor homes, and service vehicles while improving grip and safety in daily driving. KONI FSD automatically adjusts to road conditions as well as driving style, all within a fraction of a second guaranteeing greater stability, control and driving pleasure.  KONI FSD carries a lifetime warranty as with most KONI products.

2018 Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster Review

“Supercars just don’t excite me anymore.” These words, spoken to me over a month ago by another journalist, friend, and (so-called) enthusiast were echoing in my head for far too long, but they’ve finally been drowned out. Drowned out by the wail of a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine mounted in the middle of the new Lamborghini Aventador S Roadster. My friend’s point is that back in the good old days, there was a crop of supercars that captured the imagination with amazing style, sounds, performance, and more. Today, it seems like everything is capable of supercar performance, with large luxury sedans outdoing some of the best and most dedicated teams of car nuts, while former pillars of automotive excellence are suddenly pumping out family-friendly SUVs. Beyond that, another league of supercars, dubbed hypercars have cropped up with hybrid gas-electric powertrains that make magical things happen quickly, but at the cost of the acoustic drama, visual flair, and engag...

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...

Audi Teases A7 Details with New Video

Audi’s gearing up to unveil the latest iteration of the A7, and to get you excited they’ve released this teaser video focusing on the details. The lights, the lines, the interior are all teased here, and though on its own the video doesn’t give us a strong sense of what the whole car will look like, with all of the other details we’ve seen so far we now have a pretty good sense of what’s coming. As you might expect, the updated A7 will look broadly similar to the outgoing A7, but will differ in the details. Based on what we’ve seen, the changes look good. As was reported yesterday, we’re expecting a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine, a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo, a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6, and an RS7 that could reportedly make up to 700 hp thanks to the Porsche Panamera’s hybrid drivetrain. We’ll know for sure, though, on Thursday, October 19, when the car is revealed. You can watch the livestream on our site or at audi.com at 2:00 pm.
