Brabus S V12 world's fastest and most powerful luxury sedan

Brabus has released images and details of the world’s fastest and most powerful luxury sedan. Based on the new Mercedes S 600 it is powered by a Brabus S V12 S Biturbo twelve-cylinder engine with 730 hp / 537 kW and a peak torque of 1,320 Nm which pushes the car to a max speed of 340-km/hr (211 miles per hour). A special crankshaft with longer stroke, forged pistons with a larger diameter and an increased cylinder bore result in a displacement increase from standard 5.5 to now 6.3 liters. The extraordinary performance of the Brabus S V12 S Biturbo makes the car roar from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.0 seconds and 200 km/h in 11.9 seconds. To make sure you dont break the sound barrier the speed is electronically limited to 340 km/h.

For safe braking at such high speeds the Brabus S V12 has 380 x 36-mm vented and cross-drilled discs in front, and 355 x 28-mm discs and six-piston aluminum fixed calipers on the rear axle.
