Brabus 800 Widestar Pushes the G-Wagen’s Biturbo to Extremes
Backed by a twin-turbo V8 and an aggressive widebody kit, the Brabus 800 Widestar is ready to go at the drop of a flag.
We know Brabus makes some the wildest Mercedes-Benzes in the business. While the interiors are luxurious beyond belief, the star of the show is always the powertrain, pushing the concept of high-performance to the limit, and then some.
The time is now for a new Mercedes-AMG G63 Brabus to arrive. Enter the illustrious Brabus 800 Widestar.
The Brabus 800 Widestar comes with an aggressive widebody kit, adding four inches to the overall width of the G63. The kit is draped over a set of 23-inch “Platinum Edition” Monoblock wheels, though 20-inch wheels are also available.
All the aggression on the outside might be surpassed by what’s under the hood. The G63’s 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 gains the Brabus PowerXtra B40S-800 upgrade, pushing total output to 800 horsepower and 737 lb-ft of torque. This power propels the 800 Widestar to 62 mph in 4.1 seconds, all the way to an electronically limited top speed of 149 mph. A nine-speed automatic manages the power, while the custom stainless exhaust comes with sound management to help you announce your arrival or keep things quiet, depending on the situation.
Inside, the Brabus 800 Widestar has an interior that can be customized to your desires, with fine perforated leather seatings trimmed in black and diamond-quilted, an assortment of wood and carbon fiber trim pieces, and the tuner’s own Starry Sky headliner, bringing the Milky Way into your ride no matter where you go.
Don’t get us wrong, a regular AMG G 36 is plenty of German muscle for anyone looking to get in on the luxury SUV train. But if you ever wanted to flex your muscles while flexing your style, the Brabus 800 Widestar may be the hardest flex of your life.
