Land Rover has just released official details on the 5-door version of their highly anticipated Range Rover Evoque. Comparing it to the 3-door version, the 5-door Evoque is 30 mm taller, which means more interior space for passengers (for example, shoulder space is increased by 50 mm). The sense of space is also increased by the full-sized panoramic roof which will be available as an option.

The 5-door Range Rover Evoque will debut at this month’s Los Angeles Motor Show and will be powered by three engines: two diesels, both in 2.2-liter displacement, one delivering 150 hp (110 kw) and the other 190 hp (140 kW) and a 2.0-liter petrol engine with 240 hp (177 kW). FWD will be offered as standard, while AWD will be available as an option.

As for the technologies inside, the 5-door version will also get high-end features like it’s 3-door brother, including adaptive headlights, park assist, 5-camera surround system and an impressive entertainment package with two 8-inch displays for the rear passengers.

5-door Range Rover Evoque official details released

Swiss tuning company Mansory are known for their extreme tuning programs for luxury cars and their latest ‘victim’, the BMW X6 M, received some impressive upgrades. First of all, we have the exterior, where Mansory worked on a new body kit with new front spoiler with bigger air intakes, a new carbon fiber bonnet with vents, new side and rear skirts, a new rear diffuser, a rear spoiler lip and roof spoiler. Also, the wings were modified and are now wider, giving a very aggressive look to the German SAV.

Under the bonnet, the engine received 115 more hp, delivering 670 hp (493 kW) and 950 Nm of torque, which means the car now sprints from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.2 seconds (half a second faster than the production X6 M) and reaches an electronically limited top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph).

Other upgrades include stainless-steel sport exhaust with quad-pipes, a new sport suspension kit which lowers the car by 40 mm and all sorts of exclusive features for the interior.

BMW X6 M gets Mansory treatment, becomes an even more powerful beast

We already know British cars like Bentley and Rolls-Royce are very successful among rappers and the Rolls-Royce Drophead Coupe is one of their favorites. And T-Pain is no exception to that, especially with cars being one of his passions, a proof to that being the fact that he’s co-owner to Auto Extreme, a vehicle customization company based in Georgia. And this custom Drophead Coupe you see here was built by the company especially for its owner, fitting the car with huge 24-inch wheels, titanium hood and plenty of teak-decking at the rear.

Check out a video of T-Pain presenting his new car after the jump.
