Carlsson C25 Supercar Heading For Geneva Motor Show

This is the Carlsson C25, a supercar based on Mercedes-Benz's CL-Class that is waiting to be unveiled in metal at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show. If you don't already know, Carlsson is the well-known German tuner that specialises on Mercedes-Benz models.

What immediately draws your attention is the aggressive exterior styling—the low, wide body, flared wheel arches, huge wheels and gaping air vents are evidence. While no pictures are released for now, the interior will be fitted out with buffalo leather and carbon-fibre trim.

The ride height may appear too low for everyday driving, but Carlsson says that the C25 is civilised enough for daily commute, thanks to a C-Tronic suspension lowering system, which adjusts the ride height and damping according to road conditions.

Powering the rear-wheel driven coupe is a 6.0-litre bi-turbo V12 that generates 743 bhp and an electronically-limited 1150 Nm. 0-100 km/h takes 3.7 seconds; Top speed stands at 352 km/h.

Carlsson's first self-badged road car, the C25 is limited to 25 units—all of which are already bought out, and that is before it even makes its public appearance!

But it's never easy for him to talk and write cars in this part of the world because what you lust after is often not what you drive home. When the euphoria of test-driving that branded, super-expensive sports car dies down, he just goes home in his less-than-glamorous ride.
