			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.bmwtuningmag.com/wp-content/uploads/nowack-bmw-x6-550x366.jpg" alt="P90045828" title="P90045828" width="550" height="366" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-1005" /> High Performance for all road surfaces and conditions: The brand new NOWACK MOTORS N700 4.8 on basis of the new BMW X5M / X6M. World famed high performance engine developer and manufacturer NOWACK MOTORS, proudly announces the birth of its latest masterpiece, the NOWACK N700, to all owners of the latest creations of the BMW M GmbH, the X5M and X6M. <span id="more-1003"></span></p>
<p>Based on the M GmbH's 4.4ltr. Biturbo V8 engine offering a maximum power of 555hp, NOWACK MOTORS created a new technical masterpiece.</p>
<p>Deliver a standard X5M or X6M to the small but highly experienced specialized German engineering and manufacturing outfit and they'll nearly strip it back to a skeleton. All that's left of the engine is the external look, which remains the same than in the standard cars.</p>
<p>It all starts with the disassembly of the standard engine, leaving only the external parts of the engine unchanged.</p>
<p>First, the cylinder block undergoes the process of machining (boring/honing) to fit the new NOWACK MOTORS oversize high performance pistons. Afterwards, a unique Alusil coating is being applied to the cylinders for less friction.</p>
<p>An all new, fine balanced NOWACK MOTORS exclusive crankshaft, individually weighed and fine balanced high performance connecting rods, 8 fine prepared, especially coated, exclusive high performance pistons with new valve pockets, specially coated piston rings and piston pins, high performance camshaft (in-/outlet), special intake valves with bigger diameter, extensively modified free flow high performance cylinderheads with re-engineered in- and outlets, each optimized on NOWACK MOTOR's in-house SuperFlow 1020 flow bench, high performance camshaft (in-/outlet) and various modified components of the valve drive inclusive of special valve springs complete the exclusive mechanical internals of the N700.</p>
<p>For the first time in the history of BMW M engines, the new 4.4ltr. V8 features forced induction provided by two turbochargers.</p>
<p>NOWACK MOTORS extensively modified both turbochargers in order to provide a better and smoother performance perfectly suiting the requirements defined by the complete re-engineering of the internals.</p>
<p>The optimization of the intake air flow inclusive of high performance free flow air filters, modified high performance exhaust manifolds leading to an all new, complete NOWACK MOTORS high performance sport exhaust system inclusive of high performance motorsport catalytic converters and rear silencers, complete the list of external hardware components.</p>
<p>Upon completion of the mechanical manufacturing process, each car's ECU is being individually re programmed. Needless to say that the works speed limiter is removed and set to 330km/h.</p>
<p>The maximum power of 715hp and torque of 845Nm at 2.600rpm. offered by this most sophisticated, bespoke powerplant can be seen as an impressive side effect resulting out of the extensive engineering and manufacturing knowledge.</p>
<p>It is not only the pursuit of speed alone, though.</p>
<p>The main target of NOWACK MOTORS when engineering the N700 was maximum driveability under nearly all circumstances in all parts of the world.<br />
It is the way how power and torque are being delivered at any RPM that is most thrilling and rewarding. Be it for cruising, transporting, leisure or family purposes.... Or for real high performance driving pleasure as it can elsewhere only be found in real supercars.</p>
<p>As up to now, NOWACK MOTORS's unique engine creations were only available for Limousines, Coupes and Roadsters.</p>
<p>With the NOWACK N700 4.8, times have changed, providing high performance luxury SUV enthusiasts with the opportunity of fully enjoying a high performance engine in countries with bad road conditions, where it was never possible before to even think of driving a NOWACK MOTORS top of the range creation based on a BMW M-model.</p>
<p>If requested, the gearbox and differential of the cars will be extensively modified in order to suit individual customers preferences.</p>
<p>22" NOWACK MOTORS light alloy wheels, a high efficiency brake system (front and rear axle) and various different suspension upgrades to individually choose from do complete NOWACK MOTOR's technical range of products.</p>
<p>A NOWACK MOTORS complete leather trim made from the finest Scottish leather available, various multimedia applications as well as High-end HiFi-systems guarantee an unforgettable cabin experience.</p>

<p>The VR-7 Replacement Diffuser takes on a new motif, featuring subtle contours, edges, and indentations that complement the body lines of the new 750i yet contribute to its new sportive attitude . Its bold undertones perfectly embody Vorsteiner's traditional of blending purpose, function, and distinctive style.</p>
<p>The featured BMW 750i is equipped with 21 inch Vorsteiner V-102 Forged Monoblock wheels highlighting a concave split five-spoke design that extends to the outer edge of the wheel, which continues to exemplify Vorsteiner's goal to create a stature of sportiness. The front and rear wheel dimensions are more assertive and measure in at 21" x 9" (front) and 21" x 10.5" (rear). The wheels shown are fitted with Vorsteiner recommended Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 tires. Tire Specs come in at 255/30-21 for the front and 285/30-21 for the rear. The stance of the vehicle was further enhanced by H&#038;R's super sport suspension package, lowering it by 48 mm.</p>
<p>The V-102 is available in the following finishes:</p>
<p>    * Brushed Aluminum<br />
    * Chrome<br />
    * Gunmetal<br />
    * Black<br />
    * Silver<br />
    * Textured Black<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.bmwtuningmag.com/wp-content/uploads/F07_5seriesGT_rear_spoiler_rear_skirt_side_skirts_Type5_wheels_72-550x353.jpg" alt="F07_5seriesGT_rear_spoiler_rear_skirt_side_skirts_Type5_wheels_72" title="F07_5seriesGT_rear_spoiler_rear_skirt_side_skirts_Type5_wheels_72" width="550" height="353" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-984" /> "Gran Turismo“ means "Grand Tour", and this is the principle behind the 5-series GT by AC Schnitzer. The performance upgrade from 245 to 286 HP for the six-cylinder 530d already gives the standard car more pulling power and racing flair, which is demonstrated externally by the AC Schnitzer engine styling with capacity logo. <span id="more-978"></span></p>
<p>Yet the 5-series GT by AC Schnitzer doesn't just bring a gleam to the eyes of BMW fans, but acoustically it delivers what the aesthetics promise at first glance. The AC Schnitzer twin sports rear silencer is the ideal tuning product for drivers with an appreciation of engine sound, to whom design elements such as the chromed "Sports Trim“ tailpipe trims and the chromed "Racing“ tailpipe trim are equally important.</p>
<p>Impressive comfort in driving behaviour, even on dynamic driving on twisty roads, is achieved by the AC Schnitzer suspension spring set. The tuning by the Aachen specialists makes the 5-series GT convincing in every speed range thanks to its superb agility. Two tonnes of unladen weight are irrelevant when the car is glued to the tarmac by the AC Schnitzer front and rear spoilers. Bonnet Vents with chromed centre web combine individual design with sophisticated engineering. The side lines are subtly emphasised by the AC Schnitzer side skirts, and the flowing dynamics of the coupé-like roof line are further enhanced by the AC Schnitzer rear skirt.</p>
<p>The comfort of the Gran Turismo took priority in the fundamental architecture of the BMW 5-series GT. So the specialists at AC Schnitzer completed the stylish elegance of the interior with a cover for the i-Drive System Controller, foot rest and pedal set in aluminium. Behind the frameless doors, velours footmats and boot mat welcome the driver.</p>
<p>To enjoy a "Grand Tour", the passengers must be well supported, so the silver AC Schnitzer wheels Type IV in 19" or the BiColor Version in 19" and 20" provide the perfect conditions technically and visually for an extraordinary trip. With the AC Schnitzer wheels Type VII in silver and BiColor in 22" and the alloy forged wheels in Type V in 20" and 22", the drive is even more firmly planted. Another ideal choice is the brand-new Type VIII rims in 19" or the racing forged alloys Type VIII in 22". The new wheel with its double spokes in BiColor Finish is an evolution of the well-known Type VI wheel. All wheels are available with suitable tyres.</p>
<p>Driving comfort and performance at the highest level - that's the promise from the 5-series GT by AC Schnitzer - a promise which is guaranteed to be kept on the next "Grand Tour".</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.bmwtuningmag.com/wp-content/uploads/G-POWER-760i-STORM-front-550x406.jpg" alt="G-POWER 760i STORM front" title="G-POWER 760i STORM front" width="550" height="406" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-975" /> After the large success of the two world record cars G-POWER M5 HURRICANE RS and G-POWER M6 HURRICANE CS which with their 750 hp strong 5,0l V10 bi-compressor engine could be only obtained as a complete vehicle via the G-POWER manufactory, the so-called “G-POWER Supercars” will become an inherent part of the future G-POWER programme. <span id="more-973"></span></p>
<p>The G-POWER manufactory is a strongly growing business branch of the company G-POWER in which all individually produced complete vehicles, the so-called “G-POWER Supercars” are produced as an inherent part of the G-PWER programme and are entirely made by hand.  </p>
<p>The company philosophy of the G-POWER manufactory which solely produces its automobiles in limited edition, is 100% customer dedication as far as the features and the strictly limited edition of the G-POWER Supercars are concerned and also the entire revision of the individual basic engines with the clear objective to produce the strongest and fastest BMW model in the world. </p>
<p>The latest masterpiece and an impressive example for the exceptional performance of the G-POWER manufactory is the G-POWER 760i STORM which now closes a gap in the BMW programme: M-Feeling for the BMW “Luxusliner“.</p>
<p><strong>G-POWER 760i STORM</strong></p>
<p>•	725 hp / 533 KW at 5,500 r.p.m (+ 181 hp / 133 kW)<br />
•	1000 Nm from 2,000 r.p.m (+ 250 Nm)<br />
•	V-max: 345 km/h<br />
•	0-100 km/h: 4,2s<br />
•	0-200 km/h: 11,9s<br />
•	Complete vehicle G-POWER 760i STORM F01: from € 365,000 (net) /    Complete vehicle G-POWER 760iL STORM F02: from € 375,000 (net)</p>
<p>Due to customer preference, G-POWER, so far predominantly well known on modifying the potent BMW M models, has now focused on the BMW flagship in the luxury segment and developed an overall concept which optimally adjusts aerodynamics, rims and increased engine performance. </p>
<p>The core part of the G-POWER performance enhancement for the 6,0l V12 bi-turbo engine is a substantial modification of both “TwinPower” turbo chargers used by BMW. In co-operation with the compressor manufacturer ASA which can rely on 20 years experience in developing and producing radial compressors (basically, radial compressors are turbo charger compressor units which are put into motion by the crankshaft via a belt driven transmission), the performance of both turbo chargers was significantly improved without affecting their endurance.</p>
<p>As a result, the maximum boost pressure of 0.5 bar (relative) rises to 0.9 bar (relative). Flanking measures at the engine ensure that the increasing boost pressure can also be transformed into according extra power. Therefore, additional 181 hp (133 KW) are gained which enhance the overall performance to strong 725 hp at 5,500 r.p.m and render the maximum torque of 1000 Nm at already 2,000 r.p.m. In order to achieve this impressive extra performance, larger injection valves and an entirely new exhaust system for the reduction of dynamic pressure including the therefore necessary sports catalysers have been added, et al. A re-programmed engine control and significant modifications at BMW´s serial 8-speed transmission perfect the overall package harmoniously. </p>
<p>The enormous performance potential of the BMW V12 bi-turbo engine modified by G-POWER allows the G-POWER 760i driving performances which catapult it into the top range of its vehicle class. The acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h only takes 4.2 seconds. After 11.9 seconds, already 200 km/h are achieved. The top speed is 345 km/h. </p>
<p>But not only due to its enormous performance, the G-POWER 760i STORM propels to the top of its vehicle class, also the visual appearance of the aerodynamics kit which was exclusively developed for the STORM by G-POWER, underlines the exceptional quality of this G-POWER Supercar. Thereby, the aerodynamics pack in the brand-typical design is not only an end in itself, but it also improves the cold air supply to the cooling water and oil coolers at the vehicle front due to the enlarged air inlets at the front skirt and the vent holes in the bonnet. Due to these changes, the overall cooling performance has been increased by approx. 15 percent – a basis for the thermally always harmless performance enhancement. </p>
<p>The most outstanding component of the G-POWER aerodynamics kit for the BMW 760i, is the strikingly styled front skirt made of carbon fibre which entire replaces the original part. It gives the serially unobtrusive front of the current BMW 7-model the necessary aggressiveness which an automobile with 725 hp and a top speed of 345 km/h requires. Due to the elaborate shape, the aerodynamic lifting forces at the front axles were able to be reduced. Another highlight is the G-POWER STORM bonnet made of Kevlar hybrid which has a central Venturi engine compartment ventilation for the operation and two lateral ABS grids for the ventilation when the car stands still and guarantees an improved discharge of hot air from both turbo chargers out of the engine compartment and shapes the new face of the BMW 760i.  </p>
<p><img src="http://www.bmwtuningmag.com/wp-content/uploads/G-POWER-760i-STORM-rear-550x406.jpg" alt="G-POWER 760i STORM rear" title="G-POWER 760i STORM rear" width="550" height="406" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-976" /></p>
<p>The G-POWER full carbon add-ons for the serial side skirts and the doors render a visual harmonious connection between the wheel houses by visually stretching the silhouette of the BMW 7-model. The wheel houses themselves are filled with forged three-part G-POWER SILVERSTONE RS aluminium wheels measuring 9.5x22 and 10.5x22 inches which are equipped with high-performance tyres of the development partner Michelin in the dimensions 265/30 ZR 22 at the front axle and 295/25 ZR 22 at the rear axle. Set up this way, the G-POWER 760i STORM always renders an optimal traction and a sporty handling which is additionally improved by the G-POWER sports spring set and a lowering by 30 mm. </p>
<p>At the rear, a full carbon rear spoiler and a full carbon diffuser which elegantly emphasise the 4 x 100 mm end pipes with integrated G-POWER logo generate more downforce at the rear axle and at the same time visually enhance the back section. </p>
<p>G-POWER refines the interior of the BMW 760i with exclusive accessories such as an ergonomically shaped sports steering wheel, a speedometer in G-POWER design and fine carbon rails for the side casing, central console and dashboard. Further customer wishes for exclusive interiors can always be fulfilled by the G-POWER manufactory with all possible leather- and ultra-suede colours. </p>
<p>The G-POWER 760i STORM is only available in a strictly limited small edition of only 10 automobiles world-wide and is offered at an overall price of € 365,000 (net) from the G-POWER manufactory in Autenzell. The long version G-POWER 760iL STORM F02 can be obtained at a surcharge of € 10,000.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.bmwtuningmag.com/wp-content/uploads/bmw-x1-tuning1-550x331.jpg" alt="bmw-x1-tuning" title="bmw-x1-tuning" width="550" height="331" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-959" /> The X1 is the latest welcome addition to the compact vehicles segment, and brings the characteristic BMW "Driving Pleasure" to this class. With an extensive range for the BMW X1, the AC Schnitzer version now celebrates its world premiere at the Geneva Motor Show 2010. <span id="more-958"></span></p>
<p>The BMW X1 is available with choice of a 6-cylinder petrol engine and three 4-cylinder diesel power plants. Here again, AC Schnitzer is setting totally new standards for driving pleasure in the premium compact segment. The BMW X1 xDrive23d has been upgraded from a 150 kW/204 HP diesel engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo and Common Rail injection to 240 HP. The 2.0 d and 1.8 d units in the BMW X1 also feature Common Rail injection and a turbocharger, and with the AC Schnitzer tuning package achieve 210 and 171 HP respectively. Naturally, the power upgrades are available for both the sDrive and xDrive versions. The AC Schnitzer engine styling including capacity logo is available for vehicles with and without performance upgrade.</p>
<p>Acoustically, the sporting driving experience is enhanced by the AC Schnitzer sports rear silencer for the petrol X1 xDrive 28i (in development). Visual elegance is provided by the chromed "Racing" tailpipe trim which is also available for all other models.</p>
<p>The superb driving behaviour of the BMW X1 with its focus on agility, precision and handling is the direct result of the sophisticated suspension technology used on the extremely solid body structure. AC Schnitzer has built on this and with its suspension spring kit and an aluminium strut brace, ensures the perfect balance between sporting performance and driving comfort.</p>
<p>The AC Schnitzer aerodynamics package is far more than mere decoration, although it harmonises effectively in the overall concept. The front spoiler and rear skirt extension, in combination with the rear roof spoiler, improve downforce and ensure additional ground adhesion. Engine bay venting is optimised by the AC Schnitzer Bonnet Vents. These are enhanced further with chromed centre webs available as an option. In aesthetic terms, the AC Schnitzer aerodynamic conversion emphasises the expressive styling and reveals to the observer on first glance the universal sporting ambitions of the X1 by AC Schnitzer.</p>
<p>Impressive design elements also lend a sporting and youthful note to the interior of the BMW X1 by AC Schnitzer. These elements include silver "Exclusiv" carbon interior trim, illuminated leather gear knob, aluminium gear knobs with or without digital gear display, "Black Line" aluminium cover for the i-Drive system controller, aluminium handbrake handle and pedal set, foot rests and velours foot mats.</p>
<p>The finishing touch comes from a set of attractive wheels, so the X1 retains its stylish appearance not only on twisty or changing terrain, but also outside a fashionable cafe. An ideal choice is the brand-new Type VIII wheel in 19". The new wheel with its 5 double spokes in BiColor Finish is an evolution of the well-known Type VI wheel, and complements perfectly the styling language of the BMW X1. AC Schnitzer Type IV wheels in silver or in BiColor in 18, 19 or 20 inch, together with the Type VI rim in 18", complete the range available for the BMW X1.</p>

Avus engineers wanted to make the M3 even sportier than the OEM version. <span id="more-935"></span></p>
<p>Working from their complex east of Berlin in Strausberg, engineers attempted to optimize the suspension and exhaust.  They created a new front lip spoiler, rear deck lid spoiler, and rear diffuser from carbon fiber, before using the material on parts of the interior.</p>
<p>The show car rides on matte gunmetal wheels measuring 9x20 in the front and 10.5x20 in back.  However, customers are not limited to this alone.  The ADV.1 wheels may be purchased "in any size and [several] colors."</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.bmwtuningmag.com/wp-content/uploads/4848856-550x366.jpg" alt="bmw x6 typhoon" title="bmw x6 typhoon" width="550" height="366" class="alignnone size-large wp-image-890" /> The G-POWER TYPHOON "Black Pearl" arrived! At the end of the jubilee year "25 years G-POWER", G-POWER introduces an exclusive special model of the G-POWER X5 TYPHOON to the market. Driven by the 625 hp / 460 kW strong G-POWER SK III RS Eight Cylinder Compressor Engine, the Black Beauty darts over the motor-way with more than 300 km/h. <span id="more-881"></span></p>
<p>Brawny wing extensions and strikingly formed front- and rear skirts qualified for maximum aerodynamic efficiency, mark the appearance of the G-POWER TYPHOON "BLACK PEARL". And as the name already applies, it is entirely black. An exciting eye-catcher is the G-POWER "BLACK PEARL" bonnet which ensures an improved removal of the hot exit air from both turbo chargers out of the engine compartment by a central Venturi engine compartment ventilation for driving and 2 lateral ABS-grids for the standard ventilation. Moreover, the noble carbon structure is the figurehead of the G-POWER TYPHOON "BLACK PEARL".</p>
<p>If desired, the body makeover in OEM-quality can also be delivered in PU-Rim and the G-POWER designers used the most modern CAD technology when producing it. Therefore, the basic car has been entirely digitalised with an in-house 3D-Scanner. The elegantly formed G-POWER wing extensions at the front- and back axle which are naturally delivered with a perfectly matching inner wing extend the X5 by seven centimetres. They make room for extra-broad 23" wheels and tyres. The especially for the TYPHON "BLACK PEARL" developed G-POWER SILVERSTONE aluminium wheels in the dimensions 11Jx23 at the front and 12Jx23 at the back were also designed entirely black. Four high-performance tyres measuring 315/25 ZR 23 by the development partner Michelin render optimal traction and sporty handling.</p>
<p>In combination with the extended wings, especially the absolute independently styled G-POWER TYPHOON "BLACK PEARL" front skirt, the facial expression of the exclusive SUV is formed. The large air inlets do not only improve the overtaking prestige, they also guarantee an optimised cooling of the engine and the front brakes. Moreover, due to its elaborate shaping, the aerodynamic lifting forces at the front axle could be reduced.</p>
<p>The rear skirt of the TYPHOON "BLACK PEARL" has been designed like the front skirt and therefore entirely replaces the serial bumpers. Apart from the two striking end pipes of the G-POWER stainless steel sport end muffler, the diffuser also marks the rear appearance. And in combination with the spoiler which is attached to the boot lid and visually prolongs the roof line, the lifting forces at the rear axle are also minimised.</p>
<p>The TYPHOON "BLACK PEARL" side skirts do not only provide an aerodynamically favourable transition between the extensions: on their bottom side five LED units which can be activated by remote control or by pulling a handle at the door, illuminate the ground at both sides of the car. At the upper side, stainless steel inserts with an also blue illuminated G-POWER logo are integrated.</p>
<p>Matching the dynamic appearance, G-POWER offers an extremely strong motorisation for the G-POWER TYPHOON "BLACK PEARL". In co-operation with ASA, the world-wide renowned developer and OEM-supplier of high-tech supercharger systems, a mechanic charging system for the eight-cylinder four-valve engine has been created.</p>
<p>The G-POWER SK III RS supercharger system gives the 4.8 litre engine a performance increase of 270 hp / 199 kW to 625 hp / 460 kW at 6,100 r.p.m. and renders a torque increase of 225 Nm to 700 Nm at 5,300 r.p.m. Compared to turbo models, such a strongly equipped engine reacts to any impact to the gas pedal aggressively and without any delay. In order to achieve this performance, an ASA T1- 725 charger with radial centrifugal clutch is flanged to the engine with a CNC-milled, high-strength framework structure. The supercharger which is powered by a crankshaft via the multi-rib belt has an oil flow which is integrated into the engine oil circulation for lubrication. The boost pressure is 1.0 bar.</p>
<p>This performance explosion originates in the core part of the G-POWER supercharger systems, the entirely newly developed T1-723 ASA radial supercharger. Moreover, supercharger systems are also used in the ALPINA models B5S, B6S and B7, and of course also in the ALPINA B6 GT3 race car, in which the ASA supercharger impressively confirmed its reliability and quality in the "Green Hell" at the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring this year. The exclusive use of components in OEM-quality is an essential part of the G-POWER philosophy and the basis for extraordinarily high quality, reliability and durability of G-POWER products.</p>
<p>The two-part carbon intake air duct with large, aerodynamic transverse sections, a large-volume aluminium charge air cooling system in the front of the X5 and a G-POWER SPEEDFLOW high-performance exhaust system which is entirely made of stainless steel and includes racing headers, racing catalysts and end mufflers, form the peripheral equipment of the supercharged engine and moreover render an earthy sound which emphasises the acoustics of the eight-cylinder engine.</p>
<p>Also, the engine itself is thoroughly refined by G-POWER. Starting with a new set of forged pistons for compression reduction, manufactured in the Formula 1 department at MAHLE, over eight balance- and weight-optimised high-performance connecting rods up to a precisely manufactured crankshaft, the BMW V8 engine is completely re-engineered. Eight new fuel injectors with a larger fuel mass capacity, a new ignition map for engine electronics and an additional re-cooling system for engine oil and cooling water perfect the engine makeover. Of course, also the serial transmission is modified and adjusted to the performance.</p>
<p>The enormous performance potential of the G-POWER SK III RS supercharged engine in combination with the six-gear automatic transmission and the xDrive 4WD enables the SUV to render a driving behaviour which confirms it as a top player in its vehicle class. The acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h only takes 4.5 seconds. After 16 seconds, the mighty five-door car already reaches a velocity of 200 km/h. The maximum speed more than 300 km/h.</p>
<p>The G-POWER TYPHOON "BLACK PEARL" cockpit can be refined with exclusive accessories like an ergonomically formed sport steering wheel, a speedometer in TYPHOON design and interior linings made of full carbon. Further wishes can be fulfilled with exclusive interior equipments in all possible leather and ultra-suede colours.</p>
<p>The G-POWER TYPHOON "BLACK PEARL" can be ordered as a complete automobile from € 295,000 (net). Alternatively, any BMW X5 E70 can be refined with individual G-POWER components of the high-performance SUV.</p>
