Brabus
has taken the wraps off their new 850 6.0 Biturbo Widestar. Set to debut at the
Frankfurt Motor Show, the model is based on the Mercedes G63 AMG and features a
wide body kit that includes a front spoiler, extended fender flares and a ram

Continental, Pirelli or Yokohama tires.
The

seats, an Alcantara headliner and velour floor mats. The SUV also has aluminum pedals and illuminated
stainless steel sill plates.
Bigger
changes occur in the rear passenger compartment there's a multimedia console
that has a power retractable tray tables, an iPhone charging dock, USB ports
and an integrated refrigerator. The
model also has a 15.6-inch LCD screen that is mounted from the headliner.
Under
the hood, the twin-turbo 5.5-liter V8 engine has been bored out to displace
5.9-liters. It has also been equipped
with new pistons, a billet crankshaft, billet connecting rods and modified exhaust
manifolds. The engine also has new
turbochargers, an optimized air intake, a stainless steel sports exhaust system
and special ECU.
Thanks
to these modifications, the engine develops 850 PS (838 bhp / 625 kW) and 1,450
Nm (1,069 lb-ft) of torque. This enables
the model to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in four seconds before hitting an
electronically-limited top speed of 260 km/h (162 mph).
