Mercedes-Maybach S680 Produces 850 HP From V12 Engine With Brabus Upgrade
The tuner increased the engine's displacement from 6.0 to 6.3 liters.
The V12 engine still lives in the Mercedes-Maybach S680. The V12 engine produces 621 horsepower, which was not enough for Brabus. The aftermarket specialist has launched the Mercedes-Maybach Brabus 850, which has radically upgraded the engine.
Under the hood, Brabus arranged everything. It increased the displacement of the twin-turbocharged engine from 6.0 to 6.3 liters with a larger bore. The engine has forged pistons, a custom billet crankshaft and new connecting rods.
Larger turbochargers also help Mercedes-Maybach produce more power, boosting the V12 engine's output to 850 horsepower and 1,033 pound-feet of torque, but Brabus turns rotation to 811 lb-ft to protect the car's nine-speed automatic transmission.
It has two special air filter housings that draw air from the radiator grille through two newly designed air ducts. New maps improve the vehicle's injection, ignition and boost control functions. Brabus claims that the four-seat luxury sedan can accelerate to 100 km/h in 4.1 seconds. It can reach an electronically limited top speed of 155 mph.
Brabus also enhanced the car's appearance with a carbon fiber aerodynamic package with a high-gloss or matte finish. There's a new front spoiler, side air intake frames, and an open carbon rear diffuser with cutouts for the tailpipes from the new exhaust system. The tuner fitted the vehicle with stainless high-performance pipes with actively controlled butterfly valves that adjust the sound level.
On all four corners are black, 10-spoke, 22-inch Monoblock Z Platinum Edition wheels. They are 9.5 inches wide at the front and 10 inches wide at the rear. They're tucked under the Maybach's fenders thanks to the tuner's SportXtra control module for air suspension, which reduces the car's ride height by up to 0.8 inches.
Brabus' love of carbon is reflected in the cabin of the car. The material highlights the steering wheel, dashboard, center console and door panels. Even the pedals have pads made of the material. The aftermarket specialist completed this example with dark gray leather and a Dinamica microfiber interior. However, the company offers its customers a wide range of colors, materials and finishes in their bespoke builds.
This example sells for 470,000 Euros ($515,016 at today's exchange rate). The 2023 Mercedes-Maybach S680, starts at $229,000.
