Last month, German tuners Brabus launched their version of the Mercedes-Benz GL-Class at the Dubai Motor Show. The Brabus GL 63 Biturbo has been fitted with the Mercedes eight cylinder engine from the ML 63 AMG. The engine though has been re-tuned to produce 650 horsepower and up to 850 Nm of torque.

The engine is mated to a modified version of the Speedshift 7G-Tronic automatic transmission and permanent four-wheel drive which enables the vehicle to sprint from 0 to 100 mph in just 4.7 seconds. The Brabus GL 63 also includes a customized and more responsive twin turbo system, large water-to-air intercooler, with other upgrades to the intake and exhaust, brakes, suspension, and tires.  The vehicle now rides on forged 23-inch wheels.  21- and 22-inch wheels are also offered.

A Widestar package, including 3-centimeter wide fender flares, rocker panels, a new front apron, and larger air inlets are also available. LED daytime running lights, underfloor lighting, and four extra headlamps have also been installed.  Roof spoiler, rear apron, and rear diffuser have all been installed, as well as a quad-pipe exhaust.

The interior has been upgraded with Mastik leather, Alcantara, and a choice of either wood or carbon-fiber trims.  A full pallette of color options is offered for each as well.  LCD screens are integrated into the seats for the rear passengers, who have access to a DVD player.

The Brabus GL 63 Biturbo is now available for order, starting at €368,000.
