2014 850PS Mercedes E63 AMG by Brabus review and pictures
Mercedes means perfection for a lot of persons. So in these terms to come up with an upgrade is the ultimate challenge for tuning companies. And speaking about tuning, there is no other company more preoccupied by Mercedes cars than Brabus. When a Mercedes-Benz is modified by Brabus you expect the unexpected. This time the high performance tuning company has chosen to work on the Mercedes E63 AMG.
Although the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG has plenty of power in standard version, Brabus managed to make it even more powerful. The twin-turbo 5.5-liter V8 engine has been modified so that now it displaces 5.9-liters (5,912 cc). The tuner installs a billet crankshaft, forged billet pistons, billet piston rods and optimized cylinder heads, as well as a new intake manifold, upgraded turbochargers, a high-performance exhaust system and an optimized ECU. All these improvements get the engine to generate 850 PS (625 kW) and an electronically limited 1,150 Nm (848 lb-ft) of torque. Power is sent to the wheels via a seven-speed MCT SPEEDSHIFT transmission which allows the car to sprint from 0-100 km/h in 3.7 seconds or 3.1 seconds if equipped with 4MATIC all-wheel drive.
Last but not least, Brabus also took care of changing the aspect of the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG. The vehicle features a carbon fiber body kit that contains a front lip spoiler and a sporty rear diffuser. The car rides on a set of 20-inch Monoblock alloy wheels wrapped in Continental, Pirelli or Yokohama tires. On the inside, the client will be happy to discover a bespoke interior that has everything from premium leather upholstery to carbon fiber trim. With this project, Brabus has proved its top position in the tuning field, once again.
