Brabus to Launch “World’s Most Powerful 4-Seat Convertible”
German car tuning company Brabus has announced the introduction of the Brabus 800 E V12 Cabriolet – claiming it to be the world's most powerful four-seater convertible.
Based on the current Mercedes-Benz E-Class, the car boasts a heavily-modified V12, 6.3 litre engine, delivering 788 horsepower and 1,047 lb-ft. of torque. It can reach 0-62 mph in 3.7 seconds and can hit top speeds of 231 mph.
Two special exhaust manifolds with integrated larger turbochargers have also been added in addition to four water-to-air intercoolers.
Brabus-designed suspension components are teamed with adjustable Bilstein dampers and stiffer springs to deal with the enhanced engine.
The car’s interior trim comes in lipstick red and black leather with a special, ergonomic steering wheel and carbon-fibre trim on the dashboard, centre console and door panels.
The car will be priced at €478,000.
