The German tuning studio Brabus continues to expand the range of models of “non-core” brands: the first Porsche from the elite Rocket line with a noticeably redesigned body is presented and forced up to 900 hp “bi-turbo”.
Brabus has become famous for tuning Mercedes, and for other brands as part of the Brabus Group there is an “umbrella” Startech studio (engaged in tuning Aston Martin, Bentley, Jaguar, Land Rover, Maserati and Tesla). Last year, the concept changed and now not only Mercedes are sold under the Brabus brand: the Bottrop-based company already offers completion programs for the Rolls-Royce Ghost, two Porsche models (911 Turbo and Taycan) and even a KTM motorcycle, and recently the first model of a “non-core » a brand from the Rocket line – it includes the most powerful and expensive Brabus models.
