The new Mercedes GLC 63 S 4MATIC + (internal designation: X 253) is there and for all versions, whether as SUV or Coupé, it is the perfect basis from which the engineers, technicians and designers of BRABUS make a compact power SUV of the special class. The four-liter eight-cylinder twin-turbo will be upgraded with the BRABUS PowerXtra B40 600 Performance Upgrade. With 441 kW / 600 PS and a maximum torque of 800 Nm, the five-door catapults in just 3,6 seconds from a standstill to 100 km / h. The maximum speed is electronically limited to 300 km / h.
Sporty-elegantly styled aerodynamic components made of carbon fiber and customized BRABUS wheels from 19 to 22 inch diameters give the High Performance four-wheel drive a fascinating look.
For the personalization of the interior, there are numerous options ranging from sporty aluminum accessories to particularly fine BRABUS fine leather equipment made of the finest leather and Alcantara in every desired color. With BRABUS PowerXtra B40 600 engine tuning, the top model of the GLC series becomes even more a wolf in sheep's clothing. With the help of state-of-the-art test bench technology and comprehensive test runs on race tracks and in road traffic, the BRABUS engine engineers developed a performance kit that boosts the supercharged 4.0 liter V8 to 66 kW / 90 PS.
In plug-and-play technology, an additional control unit is adapted to the electronic engine management, which intervenes with new maps for injection and ignition in the engine control and additionally increases the boost pressure moderately. Thus, the peak power of standard 375 kW / 510 PS increases to 441 kW / 600 PS at only 5 800 rpm. At the same time, the maximum torque of 700 increases to 800 Nm, which is constantly available between 1 750 and 4 500 tours. BRABUS recommends high-performance motor oil from technology partner MOTUL.
In harmony with the nine-speed sport transmission, a GLC 63 S with BRABUS PowerXtra B40 600 Performance Upgrade catapults from zero to zero in just 3,6 seconds. For an ergonomically perfect manual access to the gearshift paddles on the steering wheel, BRABUS offers the conversion to BRABUS RACE components made of aluminum. Top speed is electronically limited to 100 km / h for both body styles.
Sound and performance are the strong sides of the BRABUS sports exhaust system, which not only fits for the GLC 63 S, but also for GLC 63. The stainless steel exhaust system reduces exhaust backpressure and has exhaust flaps for electronically controlled sound management. From the cockpit, the driver can choose between the discrete "Coming home" mode and the open position of the exhaust flaps, which elicit the V8 Biturbo a decidedly powerful engine sound. But the BRABUS exhaust system is not only an absolute treat, but also visually appealing: The four tailpipes, two on each side of the rear, are also eye-catchers par excellence due to their combination of the two high-tech materials titanium and carbon.
Sporty look and optimal aerodynamic function: The BRABUS designers have developed body components made of the high-tech material carbon, which are suitable for all GLC 63 variants. While the two visible carbon fiber panels, which put the tailpipes of the BRABUS sports exhaust system in the limelight, have visual strengths, the new BRABUS components for the front bumper also optimize aerodynamics: the flaps, which are raised on the front apron, reduce the speed at high speeds Lift on the front axle. Side air intake carbon fiber panels make the GLC-class top model even more athletic.
Tailor-made BRABUS light alloy wheels for the GLC 63 are available in various designs from 19 to 22 inches in diameter. As the sportiest variant, various BRABUS Monoblock "PLATINUM EDITION" high-tech forged wheels are available. Thanks to the latest production technology, they offer a unique combination of lightweight construction and maximum strength. The BRABUS technology partners Continental, Pirelli and YOKOHAMA are contributing the right high-performance tires for the SUV.
The vehicle shown here is equipped with BRABUS Monoblock Y "PLATINUM EDITION". In keeping with the type designation, this design fascinates with nine polished double spoke pairs that extend to the outer edge and form a “Y” nine times. The forged wheels in the dimensions 9Jx21 at the front and 10.5Jx21 on the rear axle are driven with high-performance road tires in the dimensions 265/40 ZR 21 and 295/35 ZR 21.
The largest BRABUS variant for the GLC class is BRABUS Monoblock G "PLATINUM EDITION" forged wheels. These wheels fill the wheel arches a maximum of ten inches wide with 265/35 ZR 22 tires. With a special BRABUS control module for the AIRMATIC air suspension, the high-performance SUV is lowered by approx. 30 millimeters. This not only makes the four-wheel drive look more exciting, but also experiences a further increase in driving dynamics by lowering the center of gravity.
For decades, BRABUS has also enjoyed a worldwide reputation in the interior design sector: For the GLC class, in-house saddlery BRABUS fine leather is being manufactured with features that are tailored to the customer's every detail. The finest BRABUS Mastik leather, a particularly soft and breathable type of leather, and Alcantara in every desired color are processed into high-quality interiors from the dashboard to seats, door panels and headliners. The BRABUS interior sets in precious wood and carbon also offer maximum variety in color and surfaces.
A wide range of individual accessories for the cockpit completes the portfolio: The range of products includes door interlocking pins and aluminum pedals, as well as stainless steel door sills with BRABUS logo illuminated in the same way as the ambience lighting in the interior. The BRABUS 600 Compact SUV can be ordered as a complete car - also with a coupé body. Alternatively, any GLC 63 S can be completely or gradually rebuilt.
