Essen 2014: Manhart M4, M235i Widebody and i8

COMMENTS

Manhart has a trio of BMWs at this year's Essen Motor Show, including the MH4 550 (M4), MH2 400 WB (M235i Wide Body) and the i8.

Via Manhart:

Also at this year’s Essen Motor Show Tuning Exhibition, Manhart Performance will be presenting some highlights. In their booth in Hall 10 they will be exhibiting three highly modified vehicles, all of them being world premieres.

Among them the MH2 400 WB, an advancement of the recently revealed MH2 400 Clubsport, equipped with 420HP and a newly developed wide body kit. Even more exciting is the Manhart MH4 550, based on the new BMW M4 F82. The name already indicates that the MH4 is fitted with the biggest Performance Kit Manhart currently has to offer for the new S55 engine: 550HP and more than 820Nm of torque are the output numbers of the MH4. Probably the most attention during the show will be paid to the Manhart i8 electric sports car, which features various exterior modifications such as the all new Manhart two-piece forged wheels in 21”, sport-lowering and some custom wrapping.

Looks like they did nothing to the i8 except making uglier.

I would be a bit more diplomatic and say the tuner made it look ugly. The wheels are hideous and look anachronistic for the car.
