Mercedes-Benz S-Class Carlsson Aigner CK65 RS ‘Blanchimont’

Carlsson has kitted up the Mercedes-Benz S-Class with its latest CK65 tuning package, a race-proven kit that combines a host of performance modifications with high-end luxury appointments. The new kit is dubbed the ‘Blanchimont’ – named after a corner at the Spa Francorchamps race track in Belgium – and has been designed to fill the gap between the standard S-Class Maybach range.

The vehicle picks up its ‘Aigner’ tag because of the cooperation between Carlsson and luxury goods brand Etienne Aigner AG, and as such the car is available with more than 30 different combinations of leather, Alcantara, aluminum and wood trim. The production and installation of the entire interior takes over two weeks.

Apart from that, the interior also features the Carlsson Office Concert Hall Infotainment System which consists of Alpine and Focal components such as the 7-inch monitors behind the headrests, 15-inch monitor integrated into the roof, sub-woofers, speakers and amplifiers integrated into the vehicle body, Alpine’s F#1 Status DVD tuner with 6.1 surround sound.

The Carlsson Aigner CK65 RS Blanchimont is powered by the standard 6.0-liter V12 bi-turbo engine but equipped with reprogrammed ECU, sports air filters, stainless steel sports exhaust system and improved intercoolers to produce 705 hp and 1,100 Nm of electronically limited torque. The car clocked 3.9 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h with an electronically limited top speed of 320 km/h.
