Currently reading: Salon Prive 2012: Overfinch GTS-X/Evoque GTS set for Salon Privé

Limited-edition GTS-X and Evoque 2012 GTS will be the first specialist SUVs to make their Salon Privé debuts

Range Rover tuner Overfinch will reveal its two new SUV models for the first time at Salon Privé on September 5.

The Overfinch-fettled Range Rover Sport - the GTS-X - will cost from £147,500, with the Range Rover Evoque 2012 GTS priced from £89,995.

Features of the Overfinch GTS-X include daytime running lights, copper orange paintwork, plus colour-coded side panels and vents. The exterior also receives special two-tone badging and 22-inch alloys. 

The GTS-X is powered by a tuned version of the Range Rover Sport’s supercharged 5.0-litre V8 engine, which produces 575bhp and 516lb ft of torque. Together with its top speed of 145mph and 0-60mph sprint time of 5.0sec (0.9sec quicker than the car on which it is based), the GTS-X is the most powerful and fastest Range Rover Sport-based model that Overfinch has ever made.

The Overfinch GTS-X features 380mm drilled and ventilated Brembo disc brakes, and the super-SUV’s exhaust system includes a driver-operated electronic valve release to make the sound of the V8 more audible than standard. 

The GTS-X also comes with an electronic lowering module that adjusts the suspension under braking for improved ride quality and stability. Overfinch says the module complements the rear spoiler to increase downforce.  

Inside the GTS-X's cabin, kit includes a full Nappa leather interior, as well as an orange-stitched steering wheel, headlining and door cards. Carbonfibre flourishes are also used on the model’s tread plates and gearshift paddles.

Overfinch revisions to the standard Range Rover Evoque model comprise an 'ultra-violet hued' exterior, plus a Lotus White leather interior and 22-inch alloy wheels.
