Al Salone di Francoforte Brabus presenta la 900 “One of Ten”, automobile che potrebbe vantare più di qualche primato. Sviluppata a partire da una Classe G AMG G65 di serie, è stata pesantemente preparata per raggiungere vette fino a questo momento inespresse nel segmento dei fuoristrada.
Il motore 12 cilindri biturbo è stato “aperto” da 6 a 6,3 litri e sono stati modificati aspirazione, sovralimentazione (con turbocompressori maggiorati), iniezione e scarico. Differente, naturalmente, è anche la centralina elettronica. La potenza massima del propulsore cresce, quindi, da 628 a 900 Cv a 5.500 giri, con un picco di coppia massima di 1.500 Nm a 4.200 giri (elettronicamente limitata a 1.200 Nm). Il motore è abbinato a trazione integrale permanente e cambio automatico.
Secondo il tuner la Brabus 900 One of Ten vola sullo 0-100 in 3″9 e raggiunge 270 km/h (elettronicamente limitati). Il consumo medio complessivo è di 17,9 l/100 km, con un valore di emissione di 414 g/km di Co2. Il pilota può scegliere la configurazione più congeniale: Comfort o Sport (influisce su motore, ammortizzatori a controllo elettronico, sistema di scarico).
La vettura è stata modificata anche a livello telaistico ed estetico: i passaruota sono stati allargati di 12 cm complessivi per ospitare ruote in lega da 23″ con pneumatici 305/35. L’impianto freni consta di dischi anteriori da 412 mm (con pinze a 8 pompanti). Frontalmente ospita nuovo scudo paraurti e nuovo cofano motore rialzato.
Edizione limitata a soli 10 esemplari, proposti al prezzo di 666.000 Euro ciascuno.
