Brabus is in the business of taking luxury vehicles and turning them into high-horsepower monsters. Instead of messing with a good thing, Brabus has continued that trend with the Mercedes-AMG S65 Cabriolet. Initially, the 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged V12 made 621 horsepower, plenty for anyone looking to rocket to the country club, but Brabus wanted more.
In order to harness the extra power, Brabusbored out the V12 to make it a 6.3-liter, added larger turbocharges as well as a custom exhaust system and found themselves pumping out 887 horsepower and 1,106 lb-ft of torque. Yes, that is a four-digit torque reading on a cabriolet. On top of performance upgrades, the Brabus Rocket 900 gets a custom interior with steel accents, 21-inch wheels, a 0.6-inch lowering kit, and additional aerodynamics. When all is said and done, the Rocket 900 hits 60 mph in 3.9 seconds (thought it would be faster) and tops out at 217 mph. Still, these numbers grant the Rocket 900 with the title of fastest four-seater cabriolet in the world.
Brabus plans to debut the Brabus Rocket 900 at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show. Pricing is still unknown.
