Brabus E V12 'One Of Ten'
After the SV12 R, the latest addition in the Brabus family is the V12 E 'One Of Ten', a new limited edition based on the 2010 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG. We all know that the E63 AMG comes with the 6.2-liter V8 but the German tuner decided to borrow the bigger 6.3-liter V12 engine from the 2010 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG. The new engine was upgraded by Brabus to an impressive 800 hp and a spectacular 1420 Nm of torque (limited to just 1100 Nm in the car).
With these numbers the car can accelerate to 100 km/h in just 3/7 seconds, 200 km/h In 9.9 seconds and 23.9 seconds to 300 km/h, while the top speed achieved is beyond 370 km/h. Fuel consumption is guaranteed by the manufacturer at 15.7 liters/100 km (possibly when the engine is started) and CO2 emissions at 372 g/km. In order to achieve the impressive speed of 370 km/h the body of the vehicle was heavily modified: first of all the height of the car was dropped with 36 millimeters, a new front bumper with larger air vents were added, new side sills, a new set of side panels for the rear wheels for better aerodynamics, a new rear spoiler and rear bumper.
Also, under the 19-inch alloy wheels we find a high-performance braking system capable to stop the car in no time. Inside, we find plenty of Alcantara leather and leather floor mats. The V12 E 'One Of Ten' will cost around 600,000 and according to our sources 3 models were already sold.
