Brabus has introduced a new tuning program for the 2014 Mercedes S-Class.
Set to debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the car can be equipped with an aerodynamic body kit that includes new bumpers, revised side skirts and ventilated front fenders. The company will also offer a sports exhaust system, a lowering module (which reduces the ride height by approximately 15mm) and 19-, 20- or 21-inch alloy wheels which can be outfitted with Continental, Pirelli or YOKOHAMA tires.
Interior pictures were not released but the cabin can be equipped with premium leather or Alcantara upholstery as well as Brabus-branded sill plates and a high-end multimedia system.
For added performance, the 4.7-liter V8 engine in the S500 can be outfitted with a 520 PowerXtra CGI performance kit which enables it to produce 520 HP (382 kW) and 820 Nm (604 lb-ft) of torque. This enables the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 4.2 seconds and hit a top speed of up to 300 km/h.
S63 AMG owners can opt for the 650 PowerXtra CGI package which enables the twin-turbo 5.5-liter V8 engine to crank out 650 HP (478 kW) and 1,000 Nm (737 lb-ft) of torque.
If that’s not powerful enough, the Brabus B63S features new turbochargers, an optimized air intake, a free-flowing exhaust and a revised ECU. Thanks to these modifications the engine develops 730 HP (537 kW) and an electronically-limited 1,065 Nm (785 lb-ft) of torque. Detailed performance specifications were not released but Brabus says the model can hit a limited top speed of 325 km/h.
