BRABUS ROCKET 1000 - The first BRABUS supercar with 1,000 horsepower and a massive peak torque of 1,820 Nm

BRABUS supercars have been part of the absolute elite of high-performance automobiles for more than four decades.

With the new BRABUS ROCKET 1000 “1 of 25”, the Bottrop-based vehicle manufacturer accredited with the German Federal Motor Transport Authority continues this tradition with its first supercar that produces 1,000 horsepower.

The basis is provided by the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E PERFORMANCE four-door coupe.

As the name of this supercar limited to just 25 vehicles worldwide indicates, the BRABUS ROCKET 1000 “1 of 25” produces a system output of 736 kW / 1,000 hp.

Even more massive is the increase in peak torque from 1,470 Nm to 1,820 Nm (1,084 to 1,342 lb-ft).

This value is reduced to 1,620 Nm (1,195 lb-ft) in the car to protect the driveline.

The hybrid drive of this exclusive automobile with 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive consists of an internal combustion engine, the 4.5-liter BRABUS ROCKET 1000 V8 Biturbo increased-displacement engine, which produces an impressive 157 horsepower more than the production engine rated at 470 kW / 639 hp, and an electric motor that generates 150 kW / 204 hp.

The performance on the road speaks for itself: The sprint from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) takes a mere 2.7 seconds and to 300 km/h (186 mph) just 23.7 seconds.

The top speed of the new BRABUS supercar is electronically limited to 316 km/h (196 mph).

The car’s outstanding performance is accompanied by spectacular looks and highly efficient aerodynamics.

The BRABUS ROCKET 1000 “1 of 25” widebody version ensures the hallmark BRABUS “1-Second-Wow” effect and has a host of elements made from exposed carbon with a high-gloss clear coat finish.

Under the carbon fenders are the newly developed king-sized BRABUS Monoblock P hi-tech forged wheels of size 10.5Jx21 at the front and size 12Jx22 on the rear axle.

The high-performance tires up to size 335/25 ZR 22 at the rear are supplied by technology partner Continental.

The extravagant character of the BRABUS ROCKET 1000 “1 of 25” also includes a highly exclusive MASTERPIECE interior that impresses not only with its exquisite material selection, but also on account of its sophisticated design and precision workmanship in every detail.
