Serial Mercedes-Benz tuner Brabus recently turned its attention to the 850 6.0 Biturbo Coupe based on the Mercedes S 63, and the result is simply breathtaking. Set to debut at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, Brabus claims its 850 6.0 Biturbo Coupe is the “fastest and most powerful all-wheel drive coupe on the globe.”
Brabus comes with a stock 5.5-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 and punches it out to 5.9 liters. It also replaces the stock turbos with ones of its own design, and adds a new intake module and engine-control software.
The result is 850 horsepower and 1,069 pound-feet of torque, 0 – 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.5 seconds, and an electronically limited top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph), although Brabus says production cars will be limited to 848 pound-feet to preserve the drivetrain. It’s a powerful car indeed that has to be restrained from hurting itself.
