2010 Kia Sorento SUV Geared up by Cobra Technology & Lifestyle


The new generation Kia Sorento that made its debut earlier this year is the latest object of Cobra Technology & Lifestyle's tuning affections. Not that most Sorento buyers will actually ever need bull bars - that is, unless your parking skills are worse 16-year-old that just got his license, but Cobra offers a variety of front, rear and rocker panel guards including a lower front bar with integrated LED daytime running lights.

Once you're done with the body armor, you can also choose from numerous alloy wheel designs with diameters of 19 and 20 inches. The largest alloy wheels can be fitted with tires in size 265/45 R 20.

Cobra N+ Sports Up the new Nissan 370Z Coupe

German tuning firm Cobra Technology and Lifestyle (also known as Cobra N+) has released a new sport package for buyers of the Nissan 370Z Coupe. The carbon fiber aero kit for the Japanese coupe includes a front spoiler, exterior mirror covers and a rear diffuser insert with openings for the two 120-mm tailpipes of the Cobra N+ sport exhaust system. Interior upgrades are limited to carbon-fiber-look scuff plates.

To improve handling, the tuner developed a custom-tailored tire-wheel combination with lightweight 19-inch rims wrapped in 255/40 ZR 19 high-performance tires up front and 285/35 ZR 19 tires at the back. The kit also includes new sport springs that lower the 370Z's ride height by around 30mm and a sport suspension with adjustable damper rates.

For a more sonorous experience from the 3.7-liter V6 engine, Cobra N+ offers a sport muffler with an electronically controlled flap which is said to allow the driver to select an exhaust note ranging from "discrete to pure racing sound" at the push of the button.

The kit does not include any sort of upgrades for the 370Z's engine.
