THE AMG GLE 63 S COUPE BECOMES BRABUS' LATEST ADDITION TO THE ROCKET 900 EDITION LINE-UP.

Image
The German tuner Brabus has once again served us with the latest addition to their Rocket 900 line-up with the all-new Brabus Rocket 900 Edition based on the Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S 4MATIC+ Coupe. This new Rocket 900 Edition also holds the record for the world's fastest SUV and thanks to Brabus for that, a lot was done in making this fire breathing family hauler the fastest SUV. Instead of the 4.0L Twin-Turbo V8 the car now has a 4.5L Brabus Twin-Turbo V8 engine with a total power output of 900 hp. The engine also features special high performance turbochargers. This new Rocket 900 also puts out an insane amount of torque at 1,250 Nm which is transmitted via a 9-speed automatic gearbox but to preserve that gearbox, the torque output is electronically limited to just 1,050 Nm of which is still a lot. The internals of the enhine were reworked to achieve those insane amounts of power. A lot of things were fitted, i.e, special crankshaft, new forged pistons with 84mm bore, 2 speci...

Image
  The All-new Recently Revealed All-Electric Cross-Over From Genesis, the GV60.   The latest offering from Genesis is the recently revealed GV60, an electric cross-over from the Korean auto maker. The small electric SUV is supposed to represent the brand's move towards an all-electric future as Genesis plans to switch to an all EV brand by 2025. OVERALL DESIGN: Genesis says this particular design is based on 'Athletic Elegance' and it is the most dynamic and futuristic design based on that Athletic Elegance. The vehicle uses cameras as side mirrors instead of the traditional mirrors as on the other Genesis models but generally, the GV60 does show that it is a Genesis vehicle with the brand's signature design, the quad headlights and taillights and the big grille, obviously, but lower down this time. The car's design sure has caused a bit controversy as some think the overall design is not really appealing to the eye while some think otherwise. We would say it is on ...

The engines are also from the French auto maker but that's not new, Mercedes has been using Renault engines for quite a while now.

We are expecting the new SL to be launched some time late next year or early 2023.        Image Credits: @Daimler Media
