Default Pump You Up: Tuner Makes the Arden Range Rover Sport AR6 Stronger


The legendary Range Rover off-roader, as transformed by tuner Arden, is even more legendary, but in this guise not a good choice for off-roading.


On the other hand, you can negotiate Rodeo Drive with &eacutelan in the Arden Range Rover Sport, displaying to perfection its 22-inch wheels and handsome body modifications.

KREFELD, Germany — German tuner Arden Automobilbau adds to its awesome arsenal with an even higher-powered edition of the mighty Range Rover Sport.

Dubbed AR6 Stronger, this potent SUV starts with a huge dose of adrenaline under the hood, where Arden has hiked the supercharged V8's displacement to 4.8 liters, increasing output to 520 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque. Despite the vehicle's considerable mass, 0-60-mph acceleration takes a mere 5.9 seconds.

The Arden body kit includes front and rear spoilers, the latter with an integral diffuser. The rear fascia shrouds a stainless-steel exhaust system with sport catalytic converter.

Arden also has fitted 22-inch light alloy wheels and low-profile performance tires, so don't try to take this puppy off-road. Uprated brakes and a modified and lowered electronic air suspension system are part of the package.

Arden's in-house saddlery provides customized upholstery and trim for the cabin, tailored to the customer's request.

For more information, see the Arden Web site.

What this means to you: So you can't negotiate the Rubicon in your AR6. Would you try to park your Wrangler in front of the Polo Lounge?
