Last year, Mercedes introduced the second generation of the super-powerful Mercedes-AMG GT 63. It is an extraordinary high-performance car on which Brabus based its project, the Brabus 750.
The car has received a wide range of aerodynamic carbon components such as a front spoiler, side fender inserts, front grill inserts, rear diffuser, rear spoiler, and a flap sports exhaust system. There are also sports springs that lower the car by 25 mm and forged 22-inch Monoblock Platinum Edition wheels. The interior is equipped with illuminated carbon sills, aluminum or carbon pedals, velor floor mats, and a large number of seat upholstery and color options.
Under the hood is a 4.0-L twin-turbo V8 engine with 750 hp (559 kW) and 663 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque, up from the standard 577 hp (430 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.9 seconds, which is 0.5 seconds faster than the factory model, with a top speed of 315 km/h (196 mph).
Two years ago, Mercedes-AMG started the story of a special brand, Mythos, which will produce luxury cars with sports characteristics. In May, it was announced that the first car of this brand will be the Mercedes-AMG PureSpeed, which debuted a few days ago in Abu Dhabi.
The Mercedes-AMG PureSpeed ​​will be produced in limited numbers, with only 250 examples being offered to enthusiasts and collectors. Engineers found inspiration for certain elements in Mercedes’ legendary racing 300 SLR, with which the Stirling Moss/Denis Jenkinson crew won the Italian Mille Miglia race. In addition to the reinforcement behind the seat backrest, the safety of the driver and passenger in the event of a rollover is also ensured by a tubular titanium structure with three points of fastening, similar to the solution that has been used on Formula 1 cars since 2018
“The Mercedes-AMG PureSpeed ​​is the most direct way to experience performance and fun at the wheel. Thanks to the car’s radically open design with no roof or windscreen, nothing separates the driver and passenger from the elements,” said Michael Schiebe, Chairman of the Board of Management of Mercedes-AMG GmbH and Head of Business Units Mercedes-Benz G-Class & Mercedes-Maybach.
Compared to the standard SL model, the PureSpeed ​​has better intakes, a unique hood, a better rear diffuser and trunk lid, a retractable rear spoiler, and unique 21-inch forged wheels with carbon covers.
Inside, equipment concept in crystal white/black with AMG Performance seats upholstered in special leather and unique decorative stitching with heated multi-contour seat function and exclusive optics, AMG Performance steering wheel, deep-pile AMG floor mats. In the middle of the dashboard in a drop-shaped housing made of visible carbon fiber is a custom-made analogue clock designed by IWC Schaffhausen.
When it comes to the powertrain, the PureSpeed ​​is powered by an AMG 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine with 585 hp (430 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque, paired with AMG Speedshift MCT 9G. It reaches 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.6 seconds with a top speed of 315 km/h.
At the beginning of 2024, the German high-performance automotive aftermarket tuner presented the Brabus 930 based on the Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance. Now from his workshop comes another project based on this powerful luxury sedan, the Brabus 1000 All Gray.
At first glance, extravagant Gray with lots of details gives a WoW effect. It is equipped with special front and rear spoilers that ensure better cooling and reduce lift, a rear diffuser with four red-illuminated titanium/carbon tailpipes of the BRABUS sports exhaust system, carbon exterior components, a SportXtra suspension module that lowers the luxury sedan by up to 10 mm, 22-inch sports ten-spoke Monoblock Z “PLATINUM EDITION”, which improves the car’s aerodynamics and driving stability.
The interior is impeccably finished in a monochromatic gray tone that exudes absolute elegance. It is decorated with soft and airy gray leather, high-gloss BRABUS Signature Carbon elements on the dashboard, steering wheel, central console and door panels, BRABUS carbon pedals and BRABUS aluminum door sills, and an illuminated BRABUS logo, which changes color in accordance with the ambient lighting of the interior. .
When it comes to the powertrain, the Brabus 1000 All Gray is powered by a new 4.5-L V8 biturbo engine adapted to the S63 E Performance hybrid powertrain, combined with an electric motor with a total output of 1,000 hp (735 kW) and an electronically limited 1,194 lb-ft ( 1,620 Nm) of torque, while driving. This is enough to reach 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 3.1 seconds with an electronically limited top speed of 290 km/h (180 mph).
