Hamann Volcano
The Mercedes-Benz SLR is already one of the most impressive cars on the roads - but compared to the Hamann Volcano it still looks rather harmless. Once again, HAMANN-Motorsport proves its cutting edge when it comes to refining superb sports cars.
The total makeover of the Laupheim-based refiner is made of extremely light full carbon and consists of front- and rear wing extensions and also new side skirt attachments and sheathings. The front view of the Volcano is optically perfected with a newly designed bonnet which enhances the overall impression by its integrated hood scoop. But also for the rear, the refining technicians implemented new ideas giving the SLR appearance its finishing touch. Under the boot lid cover, HAMANN placed a strong diffuser which improves the cars output in combination with the large rear wing. At the front axle, a newly developed front spoiler renders the necessary contact pressure.
The 21-inch rims named "Edition Race" with tyres measuring 255/30ZR21 at the front and 345/25ZR21 at the back render an optimal road grip. The design of the extraordinary light forged wheel thereby combines vitality and elegance and also perfectly fills out the wheel houses.
The HAMANN motor technicians get the most out of the Mercedes Benz V8-aggregate. From a stock 5.4 litres, 626 hp, 780 Nm, output goes up to 700 hp and a maximum torque of 830 Nm at 3,300 rpm. The necessary modifications include a newly programmed control unit, specially developed high performance exhaust manifolds and an amended belt pulley combination for the serial compressors. In order to facilitate the increased motor performance, HAMANN adds a second water pump and adjusts the gearbox electronics.
With these mods, the Volcano rockets to 100km/h in 3.6 seconds, and won't stop until it hits 348km/h - a full 14km/h faster than the stock SLR.
