Brabus Mercedes E63 AMG Estate

It’s fair to say that when the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG Estate was first introduced to the market, people already thought that the 585hp machine was pretty crazy. The challenge then for Brabus was to make this car a little bit crazier, and what better way to do that than to give it an extra 265hp making it’s 0-62 possible in 3.1 seconds.

To achieve such power, Brabus has bored-and-stroked the 5.5-litre AMG V8 engine to 6.0-litres, fitted two larger turbos and added a complex air intake module that includes ducting sheathed in gold sheet, McLaren F1-style. Brabus really isn’t messing about with half-measures here, proven by the 62,000-mile mechanical warranty. Not only is the Mercedes-Benz an absolute beast, it may just be one of the best looking estates available on the market. All over the car has the AMG look with sharp edges and aggressive front and back ends, so any Mercedes-Benz fans out there will be very impressed with what they are seeing.

Named the  Brabus 850 6.0 Biturbo, the car would actually be capable of 217mph, was it not for the extra load that estate shape places on the rear tyres. For this reason it’s capped it to 186mph, It also has restricted torque to 848lb ft. This engine produces 1,069lb ft and that’s flat between 2,500-4,500rpm. All of this does point to a potentially brilliantly successful car, however stats can only ever be determined once the car is driven so until that has happened we will just pray for the perfection this Mercedes-Benz Brabus E63 AMG Estate has the chance to achieve.
