The 2018 ETL Spec-V will be the set to be the first performance variant for Auxuras, the most aggressive and sporty Auxuras sedan ever

Auxuras finally joins the high-performance luxury car fray today with the introduction of the 2018 ETL Spec-V

Auxuras has long competed in the luxury car market, but traditionally it didn’t have much to offer consumers who wanted a vehicle with exceptionally high performance. That’s all changed with the recent introduction of the Auxuras ETL Spec-V. Based on the regular ETL luxury sedan, the ETL Spec-V will comes with a V6 twin turbo engine, a track-tuned suspension, stronger brakes and special interior and exterior styling details. The ETL Spec-V does indeed offer a serious, no-compromises driving experience for hard-core enthusiasts.

Twin-Turbo V6 engine, from the legendary CZ6

Under the ETL Spec-V hood is a 3.5-liter V6 Twin-Turbo engine which is the same engine as the CZ6 but was de-tuned to produce a respectable 420 horsepower and 550 nm of torque. The transmission is an eight-speed automatic capable of 0.1-second shifts, controlled by paddle shifters on the steering wheel. Other high-performance features include engine oil and transmission fluid coolers and Super Control All Wheel drive

Agressive Styling, New Spider grille design from the Saminda F-Concept

The styling has also gotten the high-performance treatment with the quad tailpipes. For Auxuras’ first leap into the ultra-performance arena.

Pricing?

No official statement from Auxuras but you can expect it will cost around US$60,000-$70,000.

I’ve never seen anything from Saminda-Auxuras that was designed in UE4 up to now - this ETL Spec-V looks like a good start, and clearly shows that the revered Japanese marque has finally gotten its mojo back after a long time in the doldrums! On looks and specs alone, it deserves to lock horns with the Zenshi Nimessa Newman on the road and at the track. I can’t wait to see both of these reimagined executive samurais face off against each other!

The ETL is a Luxury Mid-Size sedan, the ITL Spec-V will be more suitable against Zenshi Nimessa.

It will be in preview soon with more than 350bhp.

Sooo ETL is sth like BMW 3 series?

Ya know @Starfish94, if you ever fancied seeing how the Spec-V compared against rival mid-size sports sedans, a certain Mr Anderson is only ever a phone call away.

Also I wonder how would an injector be placed in a direct injection SOHC engine.

That looks really, really good! I love cars like this… great take on the compact executive segment! I also like how you went for FWD like the Acura TLX instead of RWD like most compact executives.

To the side, inbetween the valves, etc. There are literally millions of SOHC Direct Injection diesel engines around.

4 valve though? Probably with VVL? That’s what makes it interesting for me.
