Mercedes-Benz offers the C-Class of the W/S 206 series ex-factory with an AMG Line body styling kit as an option. In order to give the bodywork components of this sporty line an even more dynamic appearance, the BRABUS design team has developed tailor-made components that are manufactured in OEM quality from high-grade PUR. The detachable parts add further sporty character to both body styles. What is more: the BRABUS front spoiler corners, which attach to the left and right end of the front bumper, are shaped like flaps and reduce front-axle lift at high speeds, resulting in further optimized handling stability.

Brabus Mercedes-Benz C300 Sedan B30
A boost in output by 31 kW / 42 hp (42 bhp) for the four-cylinder turbocharged gasoline engine of the C 300 4 MATIC is available under the BRABUS PowerXtra B30 label. The extra horses are realized by a plug-and-play module with special maps for injection, ignition and boost pressure control, which is adapted to the engine electronics. The new output of 221 kW / 300 hp (296 bhp), up from 190 kW / 258 hp (255 bhp), and a peak torque of now 450 Nm (332 lb-ft) rather than 400 Nm (295 lb-ft) as before, cuts the sprint time from zero to 100 km/h (62 mph) to 5.8 seconds. The top speed remains electronically limited to 250 km/h (155 mph).

Brabus Gives More Style And Power To Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG
Brabus tuning company is famous for transforming exclusively Mercedes-Benz progenies. We have seen transformations ranging from the SL63 AMG model to the smallest Smarts. And what we can conclude is that the work of the designers is exceptional for its great levels of craftsmanship and quality.Their next project, which is currently being presented, is on Mercedes-Benz compact four-door coupe CLA45 AMG. The car was already given a factory body kit, which undoubtedly impresses the eyes. This was probably the reason why Brabus did not do a lot on this CLA45.
What is important to mention in this tuning is that the specialists gave the car an additional benefit in terms of power. They have added 39 hp (29 kW) and 50 Nm (37 lb-ft) of torque in order to enhance engine’s production figures up to 394 hp (290 kW) and 500 Nm (369 lb-ft) of torque. In addition, the top speed was raised up to 168 mph from the standard 155 mph.
If you wonder about the acceleration figures, well Brabus said that the enhanced Mercedes needs only 4.2 seconds (compared to 4.4 seconds in the stock version) to cover the 0-100 km/h acceleration sprint. The next step in the tuning was to ensure this extra power got a proper visual back-up.
Thus a red-accented body kit was added. It comprises of a new trim piece at the front, a roof-edge spoiler and rear lip spoiler. The most striking visual elements however are the carbon fiber mirror and the red-banded 19-inch wheels. To match the exclusivity of the exterior, inside the car features a lot of red trim next to the Alcantara that wraps nearly everything.

Supersized Brabus 850 6.0 Biturbo Mercedes E 63 AMG Station Wagon
Brabus seem to have a somewhat peculiar understanding of what an estate is. See, we look at the Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG Station Wagon and go, “Oh, look at that loading space! I can finally move that cupboard/drawer/sofa/farm animal that I’ve been wanting to get rid of for years. This being an AMG car, I could probably do it really, really quick as well.” Brabus, on the other hand, have a look at it and go. “Has it got an engine? Yes? Wonderful, we’ve got work to do!” And by “work” they mean, dismantling the Merc’s “puny” 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 and substitute all the major components with their own. The result is currently on a stand at the 2013 Essen Motor Show: The Brabus 850 6.0 Bitrubo Mercedes-Benz E 63 AMG Wagon.
As the name suggests, we are talking about a 6-liter 850 hp engine. What Brabus have done to achieve such power is increase the cylinder bore to 99 mm and install new forged pistons. A custom crankshaft with a stroke of 96 instead of 90.5 mm plus eight custom piston rods were also on the list. On top of that (no pun intended), the two cylinder heads have been optimized for improved mixture flow.
The whole air-intake system has also been substituted. Think two Brabus turbochargers with more room for compression and special exhaust manifolds. Before the air reaches them, however, it passes through a bigger-than-normal air duct on the hood and bigger air filters. The intake and charge-air tubes are plated with a special “Gold Heat Reflection” material for better heat dissipation. ECU management also comes into play and so do the high-performance catalysts, plus the Brabus stainless-steel sport exhaust system that provides the right note at the right time.
If you think 850 hp is impressive, wait until you hear the torque figure – 1,150 Nm. This means that the 255/30 ZR 20 and 295/25 ZR 20 tires that come with the programme have to both provide enough traction for the Biturbo to get to 62 mph from a standstill in just 3.1 seconds, and stay intact throughout. The top speed is limited to 186 mph.
Visual Brabus treats include the front spoiler lip that acts as an add-on to the production bumper and the Brabus diffuser insert that nestles the two dual ceramic-coated tailpipes. Don’t forget the largest in size Brabus 9.5Jx20 Monoblock F or R wheels or the optional Brabus Monoblock R “Platinum Edition” set that sees 9Jx20s at the front and 10.5x20s at the back.
Inside, the distinguishable features include a Brabus Mastik leather and Alcantra upholstery, a pair of aluminum shift paddles, and a set of Brabus Race pedals.
