2009 Kicherer CL 60 Coupe news, pictures, and information

One thing is for sure, a Mercedes CL is one of the most comfortable and largest coupés on the market. And those who will choose the CL 600 wîth V12 biturbo will even be able to take pleasure in something like sports car characteristics despite the giant's opulent weight.

And should you care to provide the Super Benz's sheer luxury wîth an extra dose of dynamic vitality, Kicherer has in stock what you are lòòking for.

The specialists from Lake Constance have redefined the CL wîth several new components – and baptised it CL 60.

Among other things, this reinterpretation includes a storming increase in performance from 517 hp to 570 hp and an improved torque resulting in 900 Nm.

Moreover, the vehicle has been provided wîth a high-performance rear axle equipped wîth a differential lock and a modified transmission control module assuring that the excessive powers will always be transformed into performance – whatever the situation.

Vital Stats
Engine : 5.5 L., 12-cylinder
Power: 570 hp
Torque: 664 ft-lbs

5-speed Automatic
The contact to the tarmac is established by the handcrafted multipart 20' Kicherer RS-1 wheels. Accordingly, the chassis has been lowered electronically by 25 millimetres and comes up wîth a slightly racier characteristic now – which, however, will still offer the spoiled owner a sufficient amount of remaining comfort.


The exterior has been blessed wîth several modifications as well. Here, altered side skirts, a front and a rear apron meet a handful of high-end carbon components by Kicherer. At the front, the latter consist of special deflectors for the bumper and a modified front grill. At the side, they consist of mirror shells made of that precious material mentioned before, and, at the rear, we find an impressive diffuser framed by a four-pass sports exhaust system.

The interior will delight the owner wîth sporty luxuries as well, since here he will find an opulent combination of finest leather and racy carbon intarsia.

For all these reasons and more, the Kicherer CL 60 is, without any doubt, the most consistent realisation of a dynamic luxury coupé in our time. Appearance and performance have come together in perfect harmony.
