With the increased demand for electric vehicles, many were of the opinion that the future of tuners was threatened. However, Brabus has shown with its latest creation that even electric cars can be a good basis for an upgrade. Such is the case with the Mercedes EQS, which the tuner equipped with a special aerodynamic package.
The EQS 450 is Mercedes’ most powerful electric model, for which Brabus has prepared a new carbon front spoiler, front lip, trims for the side air intakes, rear diffuser, rear spoiler in glossy or matte finish. All this had an effect on increasing driving stability. The drag coefficient is now 0.20, making the EQS the best in its segment when it comes to production cars.
Inside, the car is decorated with an illuminated BRABUS logo on the door sills, aluminum and carbon pedals, as well as a combination of elaborately quilted leather and velor. Each owner can personalize the interior of the car as they wish.
The Mercedes EQS 450 is powered by an electric engine with 329 hp (245 kW) and 417 lb-ft (568 Nm) of torque and has a range of 397 miles (640 km). Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 1-speed gearbox. It reaches 62 mph in 6.2 seconds with a top speed of 130 mph (210 km/h). It is equipped with a 107.8 kWh battery that can be charged to 80 percent in 32 minutes thanks to the fast charger. Better aerodynamics have increased the range by 7 percent when the car is traveling between 100 and 140 km/h, so the range is now 425 miles (685 km).
Brabus also equipped the car with SportXtra suspension, which allows the front part to be lowered by 15 mm and the rear by 25 mm. It sits on a 22-inch set of forged Monoblock Z “Platinum Edition” wheels wrapped in 255/35 ZR22 (front) and 295/30 ZR22 (rear) tires.
