Brabus unveils its most powerful car ever

The Brabus 930 is a heavily tuned Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E Performance with the titular 930 metric horsepower under the hood, making it the tuning company’s most powerful creation on record.

In its factory guise, the hybrid supercar produces 843 PS (831 hp / 620 kW) and 1,470 Nm (1,084 lb-ft) of torque. Tuning raises the output to 930 PS (917 hp / 684 kW) and 1,550 Nm (1,143 lb-ft).

Boosted like this, the coupe zaps 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 2.8 seconds and only stops accelerating at 316 km/h (196.4 mph).

According to the press release, the entire upgrade applies to the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8, while the electric system stays stock. The engine benefits from new turbos and ECU, as well as an active-valve exhaust system composed from stainless-steel and titanium bits.

On the exterior side of things, the coupe wears an aggressive body kit and original wheels sized 21” front and 22” rear. The standard air-ride suspension gets a tune that drops it to the lowest position available (-20 mm / -0.8”).

The interior is decorated with carbon fiber and fine leather embroidered with triangular patterns and Brabus badges on the headrests.

The person who ordered it paid €323,400 for the tuning alone, donor supercar not included. As usual, Brabus covered it with a warranty valid or 36 months or 100,000 km (62,137 miles) of use, whichever comes first.
