Winnenden, Germany – June 11, 2008 – Today, MKB Motorenbau GmbH announces the official opening of MKB North America. MKB Motorenbau GmbH has 17-plus years of award-winning experience in fine-tuning Mercedes and AMG vehicles. MKB North America will focus on building a strong network of new Mercedes dealers and Mercedes High-end tuners to deliver the high-quality performance products the world has come to expect from MKB.

Mr. Panos Avramidis (MKB President) believes devoutly in the relationship with MKB North America and in conjunction with the launch of the new performance MKB63/8 upgrades for all Mercedes 63 AMG models, this will be the foundation for a long and successful cooperation and a new and exiting period for MKB in the huge North American market.

There’s no doubt that the MKB 63/8 will satisfy even the most passionate speeders. Based on the E 63 AMG, the MKB 63/8 has demonstrated the ability to exceed the 330-km/h (205-mph) mark at Nardo. MKB offers performance upgrade solutions for all Mercedes and AMG engines.

MKB automobiles are developed and built with an uncompromising commitment to high-end technology. Instead of sacrificing full potential for the emotionless cost-saving measures used for mass-produced cars, MKB unleashes that potential and pushes it to the limit with additional MKB technology. MKB focuses on optimizing the complete power train: engine, transmission, and differential. Every MKB high performance engineering product is driven by one goal: Propulsion.

MKB. Your Dream is our Drive.

MKB. High Performance Engineering.
