Even more steam - BRABUS ROCKET 900 "DESERT GOLD" Edition

Reading time 2 Min.

The team around the tuner Brabus has just published a new project. The basis was the Mercedes S-Class of the W222 series, which was refined by Brabus at the end of December (then as BRABUS 850 6.0 Biturbo) in the form of the class leader S65 AMG with V12 biturbo into consideration. The tuner has taken on the "over S-Class" and is now conjuring up incredible 12PS and 900NM torque from the V1.500 engine and making it possible for the owner to chase the Porsche 911 Turbo & Co. with his luxury steamer. After the tuning cure that the car was allowed to endure, the Mercedes S-Class is now much more exciting and individual than the production version and even leaves the above-mentioned BRABUS 850 6.0 BITURBO left. So if you are the proud owner of a Mercedes S65 AMG, Brabus should be an interesting starting point when it comes to making the car stand out from the crowd and missing out on the performance of a super sports car. As for the changes made to the S65 AMG, we have already learned the first details. As always, we have listed what we know below for you in a summary. But if you discover any further changes that we haven't listed, just use the comment box and let us know!
