German tuner Hamann has given the Fiat 500 Abarth a remodeling like no other. From 133 HP (160 HP in the Esseesse), the Abarth’s 1.4 liter engine can now generate 271 HP and 380 Nm of torque. Hamann offers four power levels for the Abarth 500.

The HS1, the entry level stage, dubbed HS1, puts the “standard” Abarth 500 to the 160 HP power level of the esseesse version. Meanwhile, the HSII produces 180 HP and 295 Nm of torque. HSIII, the third stage, brings those figures up to 210 HP and 310 Nm. But really, none of these compares to the Hamann HS Race program, which produces 240 HP and 330 Nm. Continued after the jump!

Performance and styling are two factors that the German tuners at Hamann focused on for its latest project – the BMW X6 M program. It is expected to debut at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show.

Powering the Hamann Tycoon Evo M is a modified engine that provides up to 670 hp (493 kW) from 555 hp and 850 Nm torque between 1,500 and 5,650 rpm, up from the initial 679 Nm. Due to the ECU recalibration and limiter removal, the SUV gets to a top speed of 300 km/h (186 mph). This compares favorably to initial figures of 249 km/h (155 mph).

After the Fiat 500 Largo, Hamann also revealed at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the latest tuning program for the Ferrari California. Due to the fact that the California is already a perfect car, the German tuner didn’t want to ruin the design and added a subtle yet stylish kit consisting in: a bonnet made of carbon fibre, a new carbon-fiber front lip spoiler, new side sills, a back spoiler that increases the contact pressure and a three-part rear diffuser that renders enough grip for the road. The kit is completed by the 21-inch Hamann Edition Race aluminium wheels wrapped in high performance tires. An adjustment for the motor management is in preparation and a sport exhaust system will also be especially engineered for this sports car. This combination will advance the performance of the serial 4.3 litre V8 engine with 460 hp by up 20 percent. Inside, Hamann offers an extensive programme, ranging from personalised floor mats to a perfectly finished complete leather interior. Photo gallery after the jump!
