At the end of 2020, Mercedes-Benz released the first Maibakh-class ultra-luxury SUV based on GLS, Mercedes-Maibakh GLS 600 4Matic (Mercedes-Maibakh GLS 600 4Matic), with a price of nearly 2.3 million RMB. However, this model is regarded as the largest, strongest, most luxurious and noblest million-class Mercedes-Benz ultra-luxury SUV at present. But in the eyes of German refitting factory Brabus (Bosu, Mercedes-Benz Royal Refitting Factory), it is actually not the sky, because the real sky should be a Brabus 900 with 900 horsepower, breaking 100 in 4.2 seconds and a top speed of 320 km/h.
Under the operation of Brabus, this modified Brabus 900, which was upgraded from Mercedes-Maibakh GLS 600 4Matic, expanded the original 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine to 4.5 liters. In addition to improving the cylinder bore, stroke, piston, intake and exhaust systems, the dual turbochargers have also been updated. After the adjustment of the proprietary software, the maximum horsepower has soared from 557 to 900 horsepower, and the maximum torque has also soared from 729 Nm to 1.250 Nm (actually, it is finally limited to 1.050 Nm). The transmission system is equipped with a 9-speed manual gearbox and a 4Matic four-wheel drive, which takes only 4.2 seconds to complete 0-0. It is 0.7 seconds faster than the original GLS 600 4Matic, and the maximum speed is still 320km/h under the electronic speed limit. Judging from the size and tonnage of GLS 600 4Matic, the performance can be said to be quite amazing.
In addition, Brabus changed the appearance of GLS 600 4Matic into a blackened style, including a self-designed black mesh grille, a dark chrome-plated exhaust tailpipe and an oversized 24-inch black forged rim. The air inlet of the front bumper, the wheel arch and the lower trim panel of the rear bumper were also decorated with carbon fiber, and then the Brabus Airmatic pneumatic suspension system was readjusted, so that the height of the car body was reduced by 25 mm
As for the interior of the car, advanced leather layout with special shell lines, beige and black, and a lot of carbon fiber materials have been added. On the back of the four seats, exclusive labels printed with Brabus masterpieces and signatures were specially sewn. The Maibakh emblem embedded in the back seat central storage box (or the back seat central refrigerator) has also been replaced with the Brabus exclusive inscription with the same shape, and even the door panel and the front seat backrest have Brabus embossed words. However, the price of Brabus 900 must be determined according to the degree of customization of the owner, so will it exceed the budget together with the ceiling after installation? I'm afraid I have to measure my wallet first.
