In these moments Renault is introducing in Colombia the new Alaskan, an interesting pick up developed based on the Nissan NP300 Navara to hit the market before the end of the year. It will be built in different parts of the world, including the Nissan plant in Barcelona.

As expected, the exterior design is very similar to the concept and therefore only modifies the front relative to NP300 for the brand image. Premieres grille, headlights with daytime running lights with LEDs features in the latest products of Renault, and a specific bumper.

Already lagging behind the most innovative are the new housings for pilots and trunk lid in which a generously sized diamond looks. No further changes have been made to preserve intact the good load capacity of the back box.

Alaskan Range will consist of the Single Cab, Extended Cab and Double Cab body styles, the latter with a very careful in some finishes that could resemble any 4 × 4 treatment. They may have alloy wheels large, chrome, etc.

Inside the changes they are much smaller and only focus on logos and other small details. Therefore retains the dashboard design seen in the Navara, something that is not negative to enjoy a good quality of realization all.

Eye to the latest G-Power: A BMW X5 M 750 hp reaches 300 km / h!

The BMW X5 M and 575 hp seemed not enough for the German trainer G-Power, so they set to work to create an X5 with higher performance and more powerful even than a Lamborghini Aventador. A radical new look with a matte black finish and no less than 750 hp and 980 Nm of torque under the hood to transform the SUV in the Bavarian brand into a real beast which I doubt would like to meet on the highway.

We had seen recently another preparation of the same company that raised the power to 700 hp with a V8 4.4-liter engine, but this should not seem enough to G-Power, as now surprise us with this new preparation it could be the most powerful SUV you can buy the whole market.

This new kit adds nothing less than 175 hp and 230 Nm of torque to the standard model, thanks to new turbochargers, a downpipes steel, a software upgrade or titanium exhaust slimming overall weight up to 23 kilograms. And, the more than 2.4 tons weighing in total are wasted thanks to the more than 700 hp we will have in our hands.

Aesthetically no big news, but mainly they highlight the huge 23-inch wheels Hurricane RR, with a price of 8,442 euros tires 325 / 25ZR23 and a matte black color with different vinyls that reflect the colors of M Power of the German mark.

If we stop to look at the numbers, numbers with stopwatch in hand are really scary. The quarter mile is equivalent to 400 yards away which is done in just 11.5 seconds, and the speed has been deslimitada by updating the Bi-Tronik V3 2 PBX to reach no less than 300 km / h .

If you also want to lower the suspension we pay no less than 2,292 euros, or if we opt for an even more deafening sound when turning our G-Power X5 M grace will amount to 3,190 euros. The power kit rises to 4,400 euros, although we prefer to make the most out of the limited speed default sets the German manufacturer we pay another 668 euros, which will probably not be recommended in countries where we have a Autobahn hand.

Additionally, if you happen need to purchase some of the car gadgets, you could choose Banggood, which is one of the wholesale platform to provide you affordable prices, such as bora gti, car audio antenna booster, etc.
