History

Mansory was founded in 1989 by Iranian tuner Kourosh Mansory. His then Munich-based workshop focused on modifications for British car brands such as Rolls-Royce and Italian brands such as Ferrari. By mid-2001, the company had grown out of its Munich workshop and moved to its headquarters in the Fichtel Mountains. The company currently operates out of a workshop in Brand, Germany.

In November 2007, Mansory acquired the Porsche-tuning arm of Rinspeed AG. Rinspeed maintains its Swiss base in Zumikon at Lake Zurich. Currently, Mansory employs 182 members of staff worldwide and has a global dealership network.

As of 2012, Mansory's worldwide distribution network includes dealerships in Germany, United Kingdom, India, China, Canada, Poland, Russia, United States, Japan, Greece, Switzerland, Iceland, the UAE and a few other countries.^[2]

These cars featured carbon fibre body panels on the front, side steps and tail and elements of teak decking.

Collaboration with Lotus

In 2012, Mansory signed an agreement with Lotus Group, then under the control of CEO Dany Bahar. Under the agreement, Mansory would provide its services to Lotus customers who would require bodywork, trim and special finishes for the Lotus Elise, Exige and Evora models. The partnership developed following a series of one-off models produced by Mansory for Lotus including the Evora Concept Bespoke unveiled at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show.^[4] The partnership fell through shortly afterwards when Dany Bahar was removed as CEO of Lotus Group. In March 2019 Mansory released the GTE Final Edition at the Geneva Motor Show 2019, based on the Evora.
