Readers of the German-based Auto Bild magazine chose Arden for the 2009 Auto Bild 4×4 Tuning Award. Arden Automobilbau GmbH got the highest number of votes for the regional award.

The Range Rover Sport was completely modified by Arden to prevail against other tuning companies. Substantial exterior changes with a huge increase of the engine power and a completely new interior made the AR6 take first place. Like every year, the winner was named at the Tuning World Bodensee on the 30th of April.
