Brabus 600 based on Mercedes-Maybach S580 4Matic

The German high-performance tuning company introduced its new product, Brabus 600. It is a new masterpiece from the workshop of the German tuner based on the luxurious Mercedes-Maybach S580 4Matic.

The Brabus 600 received a subtle body kit consisting of components made of carbon fiber with a glossy or matte finish, such as a front lip spoiler that reduces the lift of the front axle and better air flow to the front brakes and radiator, a rear diffuser with large cutouts for the ends of the sports exhaust pipe system. There are also a lot of dark chrome elements that complete not only the visual appearance but also the functionality. The car is equipped with an adjustable suspension that allows height adjustment of up to 20 millimeters via the BRABUS SportXtra

Inside, the seats are upholstered in Turquoise Blue leather that covers the entire interior of the car, combined with many carbon accents. Leather covers the floor mats as well as the steering wheel.

When it comes to the powertrain, the Brabus 600 is powered by a 4.0-liter twin turbocharged V8 engine with 600 hp (441 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. The engine is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission that can be shifted automatically or manually. It reaches 62 mph in 4.5 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h). It is mounted on 22-inch Monoblock M “Platinum Edition” forged wheels.

Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge

Rolls-Royce always conquers and forever inspires. Timeless in concept yet thoroughly modern in execution, the Ghost is truly Rolls-Royce at its most graceful and dramatic. A powerful car that tuners always try to make better, like Novitec that prepared a special equipment kit, called Ghost Black Badge.

The Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge is equipped with a redesigned front bumper with sports intakes and optional integrated LED lights, sill extensions available for the standard and long-wheelbase versions, a new lip spoiler, exhaust system with or without flap-regulation. There’s also a Spofecom Can-Tronic module for the standard air suspension that lowers the Ghost by 40 mm, and automatically returns to standard height at speeds above 140 km/h.

Under the hood is a 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 engine with 706 hp (519 kW) and 739 lb-ft (1,002 Nm) of torque. As a reminder, the standard Ghost has 603 hp (450 kW) and 620 lb-ft (841 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. It reaches 62 mph in 4.3 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph (250 km/h). It’s mounted on a set of 22-inch Vossen rims wrapped in 265/35R22 (front) and 295/30R22 (rear) tires.

Tuned Fiat Multipla is a beast with 1,014 HP

The Fiat Multipla is a city car that some consider the ugliest car in the world. It is a six-seater with plenty of glass surfaces and numerous practical details, but redesigned, it could make a completely different impression. That’s exactly what YouTubers Sylvain Levy and Pierre Chabrier did, creating a real beast.

The car is equipped with a wide body kit from W-Autosport. The rear doors have been removed, the rear wheel arches are wider, new side skirts and a new front splitter have been installed, and the car has new wide tires.

The biggest change is under the bonnet. The standard Fiat Multipla, in the most powerful version, is powered by a 1.9 Multijet inline-4 engine with 120 hp (88 kW) and 152 lb-ft (205 Nm) of torque. However, the tuners installed, believe it or not, the engine from the Corvette C6 Z06. So now the Multipla is powered by a V8 engine with an incredible 1014 hp (746 kW). It makes it the most powerful Fiat Multipla, but also one of the most powerful cars in the world.

The car will be premiered at the Paris Motor Show.
