Tuning companies try their best to come up with something breathtaking. Now it’s Startech’s turn to impress somehow the car lovers. The tuner chose to work on the Range Rover pickup truck and you should judge for yourselves the impact their work might have on the public.
The Range Rover pickup received from the tuner a massive set of 23-inch wheels packed with carbon fiber all around. No less than 100 bespoke components made from aluminum, steel and carbon fiber were custom made for the project. It also features a plastic-lined bed offering a load length of 110 cm. The tailgate can be opened by button or remote control and this should provide some additional 60cm of cargo room.
This pickup version of the luxurious SUV Range Rover is also equipped with 80mm wider fenders, a custom roof spoiler, additional LED lighting and more carbon fiber inserts. The tuner also places a custom suspension that lowers the pickup by 30mm. We can find a custom exhaust system adding 16 PS (12 kW). The V8 5.0-liter supercharged engine now generates 526 PS (387 kW). And this should be enough for a 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) sprint done in 5.3 seconds and an electronically-limited maximum speed of 155 mph (250 km/h). The vehicle will be exhibited at the Auto Shanghai next week.
