Jaguar F-Pace aero kit by Arden announced

Arden has prepared an aerodynamic body kit for the Jaguar F-Pace SUV which can also be fitted with some custom wheels.

Jaguar’s first foray into the SUV segment is still relatively recent, with the F-Pace being introduced last September in Frankfurt. However, numerous European tuners are already thinking of ways to improve the car’s exterior design and now Arden is taking a stab at spicing up the high-riding Jag.

Dubbed “AJ25”, the aftermarket package starts off with a redesigned front apron that makes the F-Pace look a tad more aggressive. The beefier look is enhanced by the larger air vents which comprise of hand-made stainless steel gills that are also noticeable on the grille. As for the side skirts, these have been extended to enable the Jag on stilts appear more butch.

The rear end has also gone through a series of changes, kicking off with a reworked bumper that houses a diffuser which will soon be available in carbon fiber at an additional cost. Those exhaust tips were developed by Arden specifically for the F-Pace and complete the meaner appearance.

If you are not too fond of the stock Jaguar wheels, the “Sportline” rim offered by the tuner can be had in 22- and 23-inch sizes. As an alternative, you can contact the tuners at Lumma Design to sell you one of their 24-inch sets tailored to the F-Pace.

Jaguar F-Type by Arden

Revealed only several months ago, the Jaguar F-Type is already an interesting project for Arden as they are developing an upgrade program for the British roadster. After working on a body kit for the new Range Rover, Arden is now focusing on the Jaguar F-Type. They start off with a power boost for the flagship V8 S version which in its standard version produces 495 HP (364 kW) but after Arden works its magic the engine puts out 550 HP (404 kW). They are also developing an upgrade kit for the V6-powered versions.

The F-Type in these two photos is wearing a British Racing Green paint and comes with 20-inch Sportline alloys and the optional high-performance braking system.

Range Rover Evoque by Arden

German tuner has a new upgrade kit for the Range Rover Evoque.

The tuning package that turns the Evoque into this Arden AR8 City-Roader includes a body kit with front apron, side skirts which can also come illuminated if requested, and a rear apron.

The Evoque is also fitted with a handmade stainless-steel sport exhaust system which, working with the new high performance catalyst, allows the 2.0 liter turbocharged unit to produce 270 PS (199 kW / 266 bhp) - 30 more than the series version.

Arden then adds its in-house Dakar II rims with a highly-personalized touch - a stainless-steel plaque where the customer can add their own signature or whatever other lettering desired.

The tuner also offers its wide-ranging E-Solutions multi-media systems which include audio, video and security devices.

Jaguar XJ by Arden

German tuner Arden does the Jaguar XJ model.

The Arden XJ 22 comes with an understated body kit which includes a mesh grill made of stainless-steel, LED fog lights and the new Arden hood ornament.

Arden also supplies its own sport suspension, stainless-steel quad sport exhaust and performance brakes.

Under the hood, Arden is outputting 605 PS (445 kW) from the 5.0 liter supercharged V8 engine - promising a 0 to 100 km/h sprint of 4.9 seconds. That's up a substantial amount from the series 375kW (510 bhp) and 625 Nm.

The German tuner also supplies new 21-inch alloy wheels and some interior upgrading which includes a leather or Alcantara upholstery with carbon, chrome or wood trimming and a new dynamic interior lighting system.

The tuning package is also available for the XJ 3.0L V6 diesel, although Arden doesn't specify any engine tuning for that model.
