Arden Range Rover AR7 with 520Hp Twin-Supercharged V8

Arden’s latest development is the AR7 based on the Range Rover that features a series of mechanical and aesthetic upgrades. For starters, the German tuning firm enlarged the capacity of the Range Rover’s V8 engine from 4.2 to 4.5-liters and added a high performance twin screw supercharger. The V8’s output has been increased to an ample 520Hp with a maximum torque of 680Nm or 501.5 lbs-ft. Despite the impressive output, the AR7 manages a mediocre 6.5 sec for the 0 - 100 km/h (0-62mph) sprint. For example, the stock Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62mph) in 5.5 sec. -Continued

In addition to the mechanical upgrades, Arden has dressed the Range Rover with a tasteful bodykit that includes a wide front apron with LED daytime running lights, wheel arch extensions, side skirts and a newly developed rear apron that incorporates a new set of rectangular tailpipes. The AR7’s looks are complemented by new 22 or 23-inch forged alloy wheels.

Finally, the AR7’s interior has been dressed in leather and alcantara that can be ordered in any colour desired while there are also a wide variety of high-grade woods, chrome, carbon and aluminium applications for the dash and the door trims.

Arden Jaguar XF AJ21: New Images and Details Released

Despite the fact that Arden's official images of the new Jaguar XF AJ21 appear to be the product of photoshop, the German tuning firm's sporty outfit for the XF looks mighty nice. Arden has enhanced the Jaguars appearance with a new bodykit that includes a new front bumper with integrated LED-day lights, side sills with functional air inlets that cool the rear brakes, a rear lid spoiler and a rear diffuser that incorporates the new exhaust tailpipes.

Additionally, the German firm has equipped the XF with an enlarged radiator grille in handmade stainless steel mesh along with a set of new 21-inch alloy wheels. Without giving any specific information or pictures, Arden says that the XF's interior has also been revised. -Continued

In terms of the mechanical improvements and apart from the sport suspension, Arden will offer power upgrades on all four available engines in the XF. Its top-of-the-line SV8 model will feature a modified version of the XF's 416Hp 4.2-liter supercharged V8 with a displacement increase to 4.5-liters delivering more than 500Hp.

Arden Releases Teaser Shot of Tuned Jaguar XF

Arden is a well-known tuning firm based in Germany that specializes on Jaguars and Range Rovers. The company is getting ready to launch their first Jaguar XF product that bears the name “XF AJ 21”. For the time being, Arden has only released a teaser picture of the car featuring a luscious bodykit that includes a new front bumper with Audi-style LED lights, a redesigned grille, side skirts with air vents, new oval-shaped mirrors, different alloy wheels and new side vents. -Continued

Unfortunately, Arden hasn’t announced any details on the mechanical updates but it shouldn’t take long. From what we gather, the XF AJ21 will probably get the same heavily modified 4.5-liter supercharged V8 as the XK AJ 20 Coupe that delivers 480 Hp / 353 kW and an awesome torque of 640 Nm or 472 lbs-ft at 3,850 rpm/
