The German tuner makes the previous-gen hatchback run faster and look better in the newly released MH1 400 form.
Fiddling with the ECU and replacing the exhaust system raises the performance from the standard 340 hp (254 kW) and 500 Nm (369 lb-ft) of torque to 429 hp (320 kW) and 644 Nm (475 lb-ft). Regrettably, Manhart provides no acceleration test data.
Exterior upgrades include a front splitter and a rear diffuser both made of carbon, 19-inch deep forged wheels, KW suspension, performance brakes, and 90mm (3.5”) exhaust finishers.
Inside, the steering wheel, the parking brake and the gear selector boast carbon-fiber trim, and there is now an additional monochrome digital dash informing the driver about the engine health status and turbocharger performance, as well as the current power and torque.
