Brabus engineers wanted to see how much speed can catch Maybach limo, on a performance scale.
So, the German tuner, Brabus started to like more and more speed records.

Brabus want to see the Maybach limo limits. So, the Germans mounted on Maybach 57 the bi-turbo SV12 engine, with 6.3 liter, and with 730 hp. The maximum torque is of 1,320 Nm and it is electronically limited at “just” 1,100 Nm, probably because the automatic 5 speed transmission must handle the situation.

On Nardo track, from Italy, the car reached 330.6 km/h, after they have put special rims and a module that made the base guard smaller with 15 mm.

Brabus has presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the Ultimate 112, starting from Smart ForTwo.
