The world's largest Mercedes-Benz tuner has arrived at the 2013 edition of the Essen Motor Show packed with its latest products, some of which were already shown at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show.
The latest iteration of the Brabus iBusiness sedan, for example, is getting a new version for Essen.
While in Frankfurt it was packing the most powerful production engine that Brabus has ever built, in Essen they're showing the Apple-infused iBusiness package on a slightly more “ordinary” S-Class W222.
Based on the S 500, the 4.7-liter twin-turbocharged V8 under the hood has been tickled by a new Brabus plug-and-play ECU that increases its power from the not-too-shabby 455 hp to a more impressive 521 hp, while the torque figures are increased from 700 Nm (516 lb ft) to even more than what the S 63 AMG is making – 820 Nm (605 lb ft) of torque.
The interior is majestic, as expected, while the Apple products sprinkled all over the interior and the luggage compartment would probably make any Steve Jobs fan drown in his own drool upon seeing the car.
