Lorinser is famous for its modification works on Mercedes’ cars. Just a look at their site will tell you that they mean business. There is not a single Mercedes model that they have not laid their hands on. The C-Class being the best selling model in their lineup, a Lorinser kit would definitely appeal to a wide audience. The tuning house have unveiled their customization program for the C-Class.

The new kit of the compact Mercedes includes a new rear bumper, new side sills, a new rear roof spoiler and a re-designed rear bumper with integrated exhaust system and integrated air diffuser. Also a new set of RS9 19 inch alloy wheels were added in order to offer a better view. We leave you with some pictures and their press release and the good news? Lorinser products are now available in India ! So this is the perfect time to make your C-Class that extra special.

Press Release after the bloody jump !

PRESS RELEASE

Hot camshafts? In the age of chip tuning, that sounds like a relic of the Eighties. Incorrectly, as there is not much extra power to be gained electronically from a naturally aspirated engine. Mechanical measures continue to be the first choice there, and more effective than ever before in combination with an adjustment of the engine management. One particularly successful example is the C 350 Limousine from Sportservice Lorinser, an almost irresistible temptation for everyone with petrol in their blood: special camshafts and a modified engine control unit kindle here far more fire than the series version of the extremely successful 3.5-litre V6. 305 HP (224 kW) instead of 272 HP (200 kW) are an end result that can be more than seen in a non-charged engine, especially since the fast Mercedes accelerates powerfully with 380 instead of 350 Nm, even at very low RPM. As a result of the tuning measure, the interval between opening the exhaust valve and closing the intake valve becomes bigger. The result is a “hot” overlap, which is where the camshaft modification gets its name from. On the other hand, the Lorinser lowering kit is responsible for the “hot” handling in the bend. An additional bonus in the driving-fun account.

Digital or analogue? Music fans may argue about this point, but not car enthusiasts. Of course, the Lorinser sports exhaust system plays music purely mechanically, and develops such a crescendo when the accelerator pedal is pushed enthusiastically that even eardrums get goosebumps. But the optical charms of the C-Class also easily arouse the desire to own one. Is it the well-designed exhaust tailpipes integrated into the Lorinser rear apron that the sporty roof and rear spoiler soar above? The muscular side sills or the striking front apron? An abundance of details that add up to a fascinating automobile. The model RS 8 matt black 19-inch light-alloy wheels draw attention to themselves as they provide exciting contrasts in combination with the white bodywork colour. An additional stylish alternative is the silver-coloured light-alloy wheel RS 9 from the Lorinser assortment. An offer that repeatedly proves in its totality that the Winnenden customiser won’t be losing steam any time soon when it comes down to stirring up passions for automobiles.
