At the same time the maximum torque increases to 400Nm between 2,900 and 5,000rpm. The Germans also lifted the limit of 250 km/h, allowing the car to reach 265km/h. The sport rear silencers have been aligned to the different performance kits. The range includes four-pipe systems, which ensure a full and powerful sound, according the tuner.
