Brabus
Research, History, Reviews, Media & More
BRABUS is one of our favorite tuners ever. Started in 1977 in Germany, BRABUS was basically an all-Mercedes shop that built some of the most extreme machines around. Claiming lots of world records, one of the most impressive was in 2012 when the V12 BRABUS Rocket 800 accelerated from 0 to 62 mph in 3.7 seconds, took just 23.8 seconds to 186 mph and had a top speed of 230 mph.
The company from Bottrop specializes in the exclusive refinement of Mercedes-Benz and smart automobiles as well as in building exclusive high-performance cars. BRABUS holds the status of automotive manufacturer with the German Federal Department of Motor Vehicles.
At its core, Brabus operates on a philosophy that combines relentless pursuit of engineering perfection with an unwavering commitment to luxury and individuality. This approach has allowed Brabus to transform already impressive vehicles into bespoke masterpieces of power, performance, and aesthetics. Each Brabus vehicle is a testament to the company's mastery over automotive customization, offering enhanced engine performance, aerodynamic body kits, luxurious interiors, and bespoke wheel designs.
Over the years, Brabus has been responsible for some of the most jaw-dropping, performance-oriented automotive creations. Mainly focusing on Mercedes-Benz and Mercedes-AMG models, it has more recently branched out to now create models and customizations for Porsche, Range Rover and Smart cars. As the automotive world evolves, so does Brabus. With a keen eye on the future, the company is actively engaging with electric and hybrid vehicle modifications, ensuring that the signature Brabus performance and luxury can be experienced across all types of vehicles. The Brabus Ultimate E is just a glimpse into how Brabus is adapting to the changing automotive landscape without compromising on its core values of excellence and exclusivity.
Owning a Brabus-tuned vehicle is more than just a statement of wealth or a love for speed; it's an entry into a lifestyle that values exclusivity, detail-oriented customization, and the sheer joy of driving a vehicle that's been crafted to perfection. Brabus also excels in creating bespoke interiors that feature the finest materials, including leather, Alcantara, carbon fiber, and precious woods, tailored to the individual preferences of its clientele.
