The car is technologically state-of-the-art: luxury seats that ventilate, heat and even massage for driver and passenger, a large boot and strong visual impact. It delivers assisted parking with camera support, adaptive cruise with steering stabilizer, voice controls and the ability to connect to countless apps like YouTube. The passenger can enjoy the onboard TV, which with a simple digital touch can be moved to the center of the cabin. It offers a 500 km range and a petrol engine. Two electric motors produce 500 hp and sprint from 0–100 km/h in 4.4 seconds. There are many other features too: pedestrian detection, drowsiness recognition, a panoramic roof, a stereo sound system with subwoofer—nothing is missing, not even a refrigerated glovebox with active air conditioning for drinks or snacks.

I spent a weekend with the Brabus #5 and I’m thrilled! Extremely quiet, even at just under 220 km/h. Very good ride comfort, especially if, like me, you prefer a softer setup for better suspension comfort!
Brutal acceleration that only really hits from about 50 km/h and culminates in a 0–200 km/h sprint in 10.2 seconds… There are almost no cars up to roughly 1,000 hp that are faster!
The actual charging performance is, I believe, the best of any passenger car available in the EU (only Zeekr shows a little more on paper, but probably not in real life) — it charges at peaks up to 425 kW! 10–80% in 13 minutes and 5–100% in 28 minutes.
The fit and finish are in places better than the Mercedes E‑Class...

Apart from the hopefully soon improved/reduced chimes and the horrendously hard-to-reach mute for the speed warning, the car is really a knockout!
Very, very quiet, comfortable, extremely fast (Brabus version), great build quality, great equipment!
