Southern German tuner Hamann has released their take on the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. They call it the Hawk.
First on the list of modifications, the tuning experts at Hamann managed to squeeze some additional power into the V8 AMG Engine with enhancements to the exhaust system. In combination with new manifolds, sports catalysts and a sports air filter the 6.2liter V8 engine was updated to 636 hp / 468 kW and a maximum torque of 680 Nm at 4, 850 r.p.m
In race start mode, the two-seater accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in only 3.6 seconds and with a top speed of 320 km/h, the HAMANN HAWK also surpasses the basis model.
At the exterior, HAMANN HAWK features a full body kit with spoiler lip, a new carbon fiber bonnet that’s complemented by a carbon air scoop on the roof, a carbon trunk lid, and an absolutely massive rear spoiler.
In order to perfectly combine comfort and control, HAMANN uses the single-part, especially light forged wheels “Unique Forged Anodized“ in 21 inches. These are fitted in 9Jx21 with tyres measuring 245/30 ZR 21 at the front and 12.5Jx21 with tyres measuring 345/25 ZR 21 at the rear axle.
Inside Leather and ultra-suede, applications and embroideries replace the serial parts.
The Hamann SLS AMG Hawk will make its official world debut at the upcoming 2011 Geneva Motor Show.
