Here we have yet another tuning kit for the McLaren MP4-12C, a British supercar which receives now several aesthetic improvements while performance upgrades are scheduled to be available later.

To be more precise, the German tuning company fitted the MP4-12C with new 20-inch (front) and 21-inch (rear) alloy wheels, revised front and rear bumpers, side skirts, a rear wing and also a rear apron.

At the interior, Gemballa’s tuning package includes a revised steering wheel which features company’s logo but also carbon fiber trim and new upholstery.

“McLaren’s lightweight construction philosophy, exclusivity and client profile are a perfect fit for our own philosophy,” said Andreas Schwarz, Director at Gemballa.

As you probably know, the stock McLaren MP4-12C is powered by a 3.8-liter bi-turbo V8 engine able to deliver no less than 591 horsepower, quite enough for a lightweight model you might say.

However, the German tuners say that a significant performance upgrade is currently under development, therefore, prepare yourself for even more surprises from Gemballa. Pricing for the new model are not available at the moment.
