560 hp / 412 kW of power, a maximum torque of 900 Nm, available from only 1,900 rpm, just 4.6 seconds for the acceleration from 0 – 100 km/h and an electronically limited top speed of 310 km/h: Those are the cornerstones of the new Mercedes S 600 with 12-cylinder bi-turbo engine and BRABUS T 12 engine tuning.
The BRABUS T 12 performance kit was developed in an extensive process, which included tests on the stationary test bench as well as numerous test drives. Newly programmed engine electronics, an increased boost pressure and the installation of a BRABUS stainless-steel high- performance brake system with metal catalysts resulted in a pronounced performance increase. Instead of normally 500 hp / 368 kW the 5.5-liter engine with BRABUS T 12 engine tuning delivers 560 hp / 412 kW. Simultaneously maximum torque grows from 800 Nm to 900 Nm. This enormous torque is available from just 1,900 rpm.
Performance of the luxury sedan with BRABUS T12 reflects this increase in power. The tuned S- Class accelerates in just 4.6 seconds from 0 – 100 km/h, top speed is electronically limited to 310 km/h.
To keep this enormous performance safely in check at all times the new S 600 too can be fitted with the BRABUS high-performance brake system. It features 375 x 36 mm perforated and vented disks as well as 12-piston fixed calipers in front, and six-piston fixed calipers and 355 x 28 mm disks on the rear axle, and was developed specifically for the large Mercedes models.
