Ladies and Gentlemen, we shall now ask you to join us in Brabus’ tuning class. At the Geneva Auto Show, the German aftermarket developer is showing us how a Mercedes SLS modification job should be handled. The tuning company introduced the Brabus 700 Biturbo at the event, with the name offering a hint of what the development has to offer.

Yes’ well start this one with the engine modifications. The 6.2-liter V8 has lost its “natural aspiration” status, receiving Brabus’ B63 biturbo system, which uses a left-turning charger for the left side of the powerplant. The unit has also been gifted with multiple other goodies, such as a water-to-air intercooler and upgraded internals.

To handle the extra power, the vehicle has been fitted with a custom suspension that was developed together with Bilstein. The car now rides on 20-inch lightweight alloy rims.

The result of all that work should bring a huge smile on future owners’ faces: 700 hp at 6,600 rpm and 850 Nm (626 lb-ft) available from 4,300 rpm. The unit pushes the ride to 62 mph in 3.7 seconds, 124 mph (200 km/h) in 10.2 seconds, with the top speed sitting at 213 mph (340 km/h).

The supercar is dressed in a Widestar widebody kit that includes multiple carbon fiber components, which can be finished in body or contrasting color or can receive a clear coat.

The interior has been fitted with multiple goodies, including a new steering wheel, a speedometer that hits 400 km/h (248.5 mph), matte anodized aluminum pedals and foot rest, as well as a black and white leather finish that comes with contrasting stitching.
