The new BRABUS ROCKET 900 "ONE OF TEN" is based on the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S 4MATIC+ powered by a four-liter eight-cylinder with two turbochargers. The BRABUS AIRMATIC SPORT Unit lowers the ride height of the four-door coupe by about 25 millimeters (1 in) in the two drive modes "Comfort" and "Sport." At the rear, Pirelli tires of size 335/25 ZR 22 on 12Jx22 wheels provide grip and ensure spectacular looks. The front axle is fitted with BRABUS Monoblock Z "PLATINUM EDITION" 10.5Jx21 wheels with 295/30 ZR 21 P Zero high-performance tires from BRABUS technology partner Pirelli. To give the exclusive looks of these wheels an added sporty touch, the BRABUS ROCKET 900 "ONE OF TEN" is equipped with aero discs made from naked carbon. In order to achieve an optimal combination of lightweight construction and maximum strength, these ten-spoke alloys are manufactured using a hi-tech forging process. That is the reason why the BRABUS suspension engineers developed special, extra-large versions of the BRABUS Monoblock Z wheels. Lightweight Performance.Įspecially wide high-performance tires are a big help in further optimizing the outstanding traction of the 4MATIC+ all-wheel-drive system. Other decidedly sporty accents on the body include naked carbon panels at the sides of the rear bumper and carbon covers for the side mirrors. In order to achieve an optimal aerodynamic balance, the BRABUS design team went into the wind tunnel to develop a multi-piece carbon rear wing and a rear diffuser made from that same hi-tech compound for the BRABUS ROCKET 900 "ONE OF TEN". The spoiler integrated into this front-end component was shaped to further reduce front-axle lift. The air intakes integrated into the radiator grille are part of the ram-air intake system. That is the reason behind the development of the ROCKET carbon front fascia, which provides a perfect transition to the wider carbon front fenders: The larger air intakes supply the engine and the front brakes with fresh air. The aerodynamics play an elementary role in the speed ranges the new BRABUS supercar can reach in a flash. Of course, this conversion also includes tailor-made fender liners made from Kevlar. At the rear axle, carbon flares add 7.8 centimeters (3.1 in) to the overall width of the GT. The front features new wider fenders with integrated sweeping flares. The components are manufactured from high-strength, yet lightweight carbon.
