Brabus gave 10 folks the prospect to have greater than 1,000 lb/ft of torque of their E-class with the wild E V12.
Anybody who’s ever skilled a Mercedes turbo V12 is aware of they’re immensely highly effective machines. Direct from Mercedes, they’ll pin your kidneys to your backbone with each press of the throttle. But when ‘quite a bit’ just isn’t sufficient, Brabus tunes them to absurd energy ranges. However Mercedes solely supplied the V12s in a choose variety of vehicles.
Brabus solved that downside by in some way discovering room for the V12 in a W212 E-class. They name it the E V12, and it’s even extra highly effective than a regular AMG V12. You didn’t ask for 788 horsepower in your E-class, however right here you go anyway. Need tires to final 20 minutes? You’ll be capable of accomplish that with 1,047 lb/ft of torque. We discovered this one on ClassicDriver, and it’s fairly a departure from a regular E63 AMG.
Beginning with a 6.3 liter V12, Brabus labored their magic to create these energy numbers. However we really feel extra magic needed to be performed to be able to get the factor to even match inside a W212 chassis. It’s already a good match within the larger S class, and long-hooded SL roadsters.
Eager eyed observers will see the entrance radiator help has been ditched to be able to accomodate the V12’s entrance accent drive system. By that alone, we will solely assume the in depth work to chop up a automotive, and but make it stronger than earlier than to deal with the a great deal of a massive V12.
Contained in the automotive, nearly each floor has been modified to excessive qualify leather-based, Alcantara or carbon fiber. A particular wrapped steering wheel comprises Brabus badging, together with carbon fiber. Badges will also be discovered on the seatbacksm, and a particular “certainly one of ten” EV12 badge lets you know the way particular the automotive is.
Did you suppose we weren’t going to say the physique package? Suppose once more. Whereas Brabus has usually give you some nice trying refined modifications, the aspect skirts on the rear wheels will certainly be a love/hate type of look. However, apparently they do serve a operate. Wind tunnel examined, they cut back raise at entrance and rear, which is an effective factor while you’re travelling on the sharp aspect of 200 miles per hour.
