In 2004 KLEEMANN ambitious plans for the creation of tourism KLEEMANN unique and exclusive. Now, after three years of design and development, KLEEMANN bring their knowledge of technology and experience to the next level by introducing the GTK concept car.
The website design project
KLEEMANN, known for his many years of experience in the compressor technology and products of unique design of the Mercedes-Benz cars, the battlefield is the exclusive manufacturer of resistance now. This was possible if KLEEMANN international Christian Brandt employs experienced designer of the car. Christian has meant that the Web site design project, GTK, the not only a sport project, but also a platform for the development of design and technology for the future of the KLEEMANN performance and design solutions of Mercedes-Benz car was top secret.
Style KLEEMANN solutions are designed with deep respect for the elegant, powerful and exclusive design of the Mercedes-Benz cars. To the next level of design KLEEMANN, we found that we need to make a complete car. Design a complete car let us cars from a much larger perspective, we have done in the past, through the creation of improvements for production cars, to create solutions of style for Mercedes-Benz says Christian Brandt.
The GTK-design project is a great source of inspiration for current and future products KLEEMANN. The wheel of GTK has inspired the new TS-7 wheel with its unique directional design from a single piece and GTK-design elements similar to some parts of the existing design solutions for the class S KLEEMANN and CLS-class. Current design projects start in the next 6 to 12 months for new models from Mercedes-Benz have important forms and information on GTK-design. Like all other solutions style KLEEMANN, the design of the GTK based on code from KLEEMANN unique design elegance and simplicity recognize traditions of Scandinavian design of the simple and functional forms. The positive feedback from the market in recent years confirms the conviction that we founded 2004 correctly and on the international market includes direction KLEEMANN the draft Christian Brandt.
Sohisticated and reliable technology
The GTK KLEEMANN has panels of carbon fiber bodywork type as many existing products high KLEEMANN compressor system, tires, brakes, etc.. These new products are developed and tested since 2005 in a Mercedes-Benz SLK 55 AMG and the GTK is structurally based on the SLK.
When we based 55 AMG the GTK to the Mercedes-Benz SLK, decided we wanted to with daily exclusive design resistance integrated reliability, safety and comfort of the cars offer Mercedes-Benz. So, we focus on the development of certain elements can make that car design and the unique performance of KLEEMANN, technical director Claus Ankjaer said.
In the creation of GTK, includes us several new challenges and experiences of the resolution of these challenges, can we develop and produce even more advanced and reliable solutions existing performance and future Mercedes-Benz models, Claus.
Unique performance
With the suction motor engine has SLK 55 AMG with a complete system of KLEEMANN compressor the GTK-540 HP power and 700 nm torque. This competence of the road over a 7-gear-box was transferred to automatic changes, a KLEEMANN limited slip, which specifically for the GTK, maximum performance and driver control on the road from tyre alloy differential and ultra low profile tyres Toyo T1-R in 20 “KLEEMANN.”
Safe are reliable, and useful daily resistance the motto reflects comfortable by the strength of the KLEEMANN and bred in addition to many other GTS race.
Gross performance for the GTK data puts it in the same competition front: 0-100 km/h acceleration takes place in just 3.7 seconds and the GTK is still brutal acceleration electronic limited the maximum speed 300 km/h the system of brake KLEEMANN with 380 mm. ventilated performance discs with 8 piston fixed aluminum clamps front and 345 mm. ventilated disc with 4-piston brake calipers rear aluminium fixed securely, fast and secure power to stop any speed.
