Since the last Lorinser-tuned car we saw was a humble smart fortwo, it was only fair of them to announce this beautifully crafted G500 next. And yes, these mods aren’t just skin deep.

Visually, standard G-Class components have been replaced by a custom rear decklid spoiler, side-skirts, custom spare wheel cover and a custom front grille which says ‘Lorinser’ on top of a simple, rectangular design.

The RS9 alloy wheels are painted black and have a five triple spoke design delivering “perfect load distribution” while allowing enough room for proper ventilation to the brake system. Loriser also specifically mention that this G500 is at its best when wearing 22×10 front & rear wheels, with 295/35 R22 rubber.

Under its hood you’ll find the Lorinser power enhancement module which boosts engine power all the way to 360kW/490 HP at 5,500 rpm, while torque goes up to 690 Nm (508 lb-ft) at 4,700 rpm. In a straight line, it will hit 100 km/h (62 mph) in 5.6 seconds and reach a top speed of 210 km/h (130 mph), which makes it about as quick as the old G 55 AMG.

As for the interior, clients can order just about any type of materials, from leather, fine wood, piano paint to carbon fiber, so you can end up with a very special car, specifically tailored to your preferences.

The body kit costs €4,360, while for the power enhancement module and sports exhaust together you will have to shell out an additional €6,000 (both prices including VAT).
