Get ready for a brave new Brabus: no extra power, but more range ⚡️
You know what you’re going to get with a Brabus Mercedes, because Brabus knows what its customers like. It’s probably going to be black, it’s definitely going to have huge wheels, and for as long as can be remembered it’s likely to have preposterous amounts of power. This is the company that makes 900hp G-Classes, don’t forget. , should have about 2,000hp. But no. Here’s a Mercedes tuned by Brabus with not a single more horsepower than standard.
Instead, the Brabus overhaul here focuses on aerodynamic efficiency and range, which sounds awfully virtuous for a company famed for cramming V12s into any engine bay going. That said the company has always been about taking up where Mercedes leaves off; where that was once making mad V8s even madder, it’s now further improving the aero of one of the world’s slipperiest cars.
Thanks to the new front spoiler and lip, side air intakes, wheel arch deflectors, diffuser and spoiler - plus the suspension drop and those stunning 22-inch disc wheels seen in the wind tunnel pics - Brabus claims an improvement in the drag co-efficient of 7.2 per cent. Which sounds pretty significant given the effort expended on the EQS to make it so aerodynamic; presumably it’s not enough to shift the official 0.20 Cd, however, as Brabus would have said.
The rest is standard fare, really. This might be an EQS with reduced lift and an improved drag co-efficient, but it’s still a big, black Brabus on huge wheels and a 20mm suspension drop; it’s going to draw glances of some description - or the ‘Brabus 1-Second Wow Effect’, as it’s officially known. There’s a nose lift offered to raise the EQS back up again as well as other wheels for those less concerned about outright efficiency and more worried about kerbs.
Naturally, any combination of interior and exterior colour a buyer might desire is possible , up to and including a velour boot mat with Brabus logo and leather edging. Of course. Those with less particular tastes might like to know
