The Manhart’s take on the BMW X3 M Competition may simply be the most hardcore machine we’ve seen nevertheless. The German tuner truly pushed the new M SUV to the limit and created a monster with over 600 HP by using only a 3-liter straight-six engine.
For that engine size, the amount of power it delivers is pretty amazing. The one issue we had with this car once it came out was that the tuner didn’t mention the acceleration time for the standard 0-62 mph sprint.
That wasn’t specifically a surprise, as Manhart is known for such behavior. Most of the time they don’t list these acceleration times however mention the top speed of the cars they tune.
Luckily, the fellows from AutoTopNL took a tuned Manhart MHX3 out for a spin to check simply what kind of numbers it would give them with on the Dragy app. The result? A mind-blowing 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) that takes only 3.26 seconds.
That level of performance puts the X3 M right next to some seriously quick cars, like none other than the bigger brother from Bavaria – the BMW M8 Competition. Not solely that number is impressive but additionally the fact that it will reach nearly 300 km/h (186 mph) in a straight line. Mind you, this is still an SUV, and reaching such velocities is not a simple factor to achieve. furthermore, this kind of speed used to be reserved for supercars, not long ago.
The Manhart MHX3 600 can cost a pretty penny though, just in case you were curious. Even so, considering the type of performance it brings to the table and also the fact that’s really a usable, decently-sized SUV, I believe it might very well be worth a look over. deciding by the performance shown within the video below, it would be more than a great alternative for a number of enthusiasts.
Manhart never fails to amaze us, especially with their SUV modifications and tuning packs, 630 HP being much more then expected to such a huge SUV.
The beast beat any expected times on the track and it might be one tuned SUV able to break some records in its category.
