Brabus Elevates The Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance To Supercar Status

With Brabus' enhancements, the most potent S-Class model to date—the Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance—can reach new heights of excitement. To begin with, the plug-in hybrid powertrain boasts an impressive 917 hp and 1,114 lb-ft of torque.

This is an increase of 126 hp and 59 lb-ft of torque when compared to the stock version. The electric motor remains unchanged, and the Brabus PowerXtra B40E-930 module is attached to the twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine.

A nine-speed automatic gearbox distributes power to each of the four wheels. The vehicle's highest speed is electronically limited to 180 mph. However, it goes from 0-62 mph in 3.2 seconds, which is 0.1 second quicker than the original version. Front splitter and bumper intake garnish carbon fiber add-ons, a new grille with integrated RamAir intakes, side skirts, a lip spoiler, and a bigger diffuser with quad exhaust pipes make the Brabus 930 look sportier than any factory S-Class.

The 22-inch Brabus Monoblock ZM "Platinum Edition" forged wheels are another new addition to the luxury sedan, and the Brabus SportXtra suspension module can reduce the ride height by as much as 0.4 inches in different driving modes. The Brabus S63's "Masterpiece" interior kit adds premium leather seats with a diamond quilting pattern reminiscent of seashells to the cabin. And what about those unique Brabus logos and copious amounts of carbon fiber? The tuner was founded in 1977, and the "77" logos are a nod to that fact.

The upgraded Mercedes-AMG S63 E Performance from Brabus starts at €405,000 ($442,855) before taxes in Germany. A substantial premium over the standard model, the illustrated version is priced at €479,889 ($524,958).
