BRABUS 800 CABRIO and BRABUS XL 800 CABRIO: These two open-top supercars now expand the broad range of Masterpiece supercars from the Germany luxury manufactory. A limited edition of 50 vehicles of each of the two models will be built based on the current Mercedes-AMG G 63 of the W 465 series. The four-door, open-top body was developed by the engineers, technicians and designers of BRABUS using state-of-the-art CAD and simulation technologies and tested according to the strictest criteria. The result is an innovative cabriolet concept, which sets new standards in terms of structural strength, durability and safety. Thanks to the use of high-strength steel, the body achieves torsional rigidity on the level of the closed base vehicle. The extensive load tests also included a shaker test with peak loads of up to 7g, which simulates a driven distance of more than 100,000 kilometers (62,000 miles), and the successful completion of the mandatory rollover test. More than 500 specially developed components form the basis of the tailor-made soft-top construction. It opens or closes electrically in just 20 seconds at the touch of a button and thus offers the up to five occupants a unique open-air experience. An integrated carbon-fiber large-area roof bow in the front roof segment – a world first – ensures a stable roof contour and optimized sound deadening. At the rear end, the “C-BOW” steel roll bar with exposed-structure carbon elements typical of the brand is integrated into the convertible body. It plays an equally crucial role. In terms of looks, the two new BRABUS supercars impress not only on account of their sophisticated cabriolet concept, but also with their extravagant BRABUS WIDESTAR widebody versions. Entirely in exposed-structure carbon on the black road-going version and in “Pale Brown” on the XL variant with even wider fenders and exposed-structure carbon extensions.
