Brabus is always surprising and seeks to stay one step ahead of the competition to maintain this character among its fans.
For this, the German tuner announced the launch of the Rocket 1000, a four-door coupe with 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive, based on the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 SE Performance, with a limited production of only 25 units and a price of €450,000.
The new «missile» from Brabus combines a 4.5-liter V8 biturbo engine with 796 hp of power and a torque of 1250 Nm, which is combined with an electric motor with 204 hp and a torque of 320 Nm, allowing for a total power of 1000 hp and an impressive maximum torque of 1820 Nm, which is electronically limited to 1620 Nm in order to protect the 9-speed Speedshift MCT sports transmission.
These insane numbers allow the Rocket 100 to announce an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 2.6 seconds and the ability to reach 300 km/h in just 23.9 seconds. The top speed, as expected, is electronically limited to 316 km/h. Brabus has announced that this asphalt «monster» has an electric mode range of up to 13 km.
The superlatives of this model also extend to the exterior, which features a carbon fiber front spoiler that transitions to the wide carbon fiber wheel arches.
Inspired by the design of the original 2006 Rocket, this hybrid supercar is also equipped with carbon fiber aerodynamic blades integrated around the generous air intakes of the spoiler to optimize the direction of airflow to the wheels, as well as to cool the front brakes.
Otro elemento esencial de este superdeportivo son las llantas forjadas Brabus Monoblock P, de 21’’ en la parte delantera y 22’’ en el eje trasero, que están equipadas con neumáticos de alto rendimiento SportContact 7 extremadamente anchos proporcionados por Continental.
