<< Prev Page 2 of 2 Now, several evolutionary stages and one vehicle generation later, the new Brabus 850 "iBusiness" celebrates its world debut. In the refined ambiance of a Brabus fine leather interior crafted to perfection down to the last detail the passengers have the latest generation of Apple computer technology for global communications and entertainment at their disposal. The Brabus "iBusiness" multimedia system incorporates an iPad mini tablet into the rear compartment. To this end the Brabus designer developed a custom center console, which is installed between the two individual seats in the rear, and is equipped with a docking station. The docking station not only secures the table computer safely in place when not in use, it also recharges the computer's battery. The iPad mini is not only for communication with the outside world. The integration of the "iBusiness" concept into the vehicle's on-board electronics also allows all functions of the S-Class COMAND system to be controlled from the iPad mini. In addition, the mobile computer is connected to a Mac mini computer via the InCar-Hotspot. The Mac mini serves as the mainframe. The ultra-compact yet particularly powerful computer is housed safely in an electrically operated custom-designed drawer in the trunk of the S-Class. The Brabus programmers developed the innovative Brabus Remote app to facilitate communication between the individual modules of the multimedia equipment. Of course there is also a special Brabus app for iPad, iPhone and iPod. This software is part of the state-of-the-art communications concept of the luxury sedan as well. A 15.2-inch color TFT display with an aspect ratio of 16:9 serves as the central monitor for the iPad minis and the other devices of the multimedia equipment. The electrically deployed monitor is integrated elegantly into the headliner made from the finest leather. At night the headliner can be illuminated by a multitude of fiber-optic lights to resemble a starry sky. In addition, the standard screens on the back of the front head restraints can be used to watch TV via DVBT or other programming sources. High-speed USB 3.0 ports integrated into the rear compartment allow connecting additional devices such as a digital camera to the Mac mini. The Brabus 850 "iBusiness" uses state-of-the-art wireless technology to connect to the internet. The music comes from an Apple iPod touch of the latest generation. With 64 gigabytes of memory it offers enough storage capacity for more than 14,000 tracks. The sound is reproduced by the sound system of the S-Class. The perfectly finished Brabus fine leather interior can be crafted in the company upholstery shop in any desired color and in any upholstery design from high-end leathers and Alcantara. The selection of wood and carbon-fiber inlays in virtually any desired color and with a variety of surface finishes is just as extensive. At the extremely high speeds the Brabus 850 "iBusiness" effortlessly attains the aerodynamic properties are of utmost importance. To minimize negative lift on the front and rear axle while creating an optimal balance the Brabus designers have developed a body conversion kit with sporty and elegant style. The components are manufactured in OEM quality from high-end PUR plastics and carbon fiber, and lend the luxury sedan a dynamic visual upgrade and optimize aerodynamic efficiency. The Brabus front fascia replaces the production bumper in its entirety. It captivates not only with its striking looks that includes large stylishly integrated air scoops that optimize the supply of cooling air for the radiators, engine and front brakes. Its shape was optimized in the wind tunnel and consequently also reduces negative lift on the front axle, which plays a role in the further improved handling stability at high speeds. The side of the each front fender is upgraded with a Brabus design element made from clear-coated carbon fiber, with a choice of matt or high-sheen finish. The integrated Brabus logo is optionally available in a backlit version whose illumination is activated by operating the remote control or by pulling on a door handle. At the same time the LED lights integrated into the underside of the Brabus rocker panels also light up. The underfloor lighting makes approaching the car at night safer and helps to avoid stepping into a pothole or puddle. The Brabus aerodynamic-enhancement concept was designed for all current S-Class models with short or long wheelbase. It is rounded out by the Brabus rear separation edge, which is also available in a version made from clear-coated carbon fiber, and the rear fascia with integrated diffuser and tailor-made cutouts for the Brabus sport exhaust system. Also contributing to the striking designer look and the even more dynamic and safer handling of the Mercedes S-Class are the tailor-made Brabus Monoblock alloy wheels with diameters of 19, 20, 21 or even 22 inches. Forged Brabus "PLATINUM EDITION" wheels in size 9Jx21 on the front axle and size 10.5Jx21 wheels in the rear are available as a 21-inch tire/wheel combination. Customers can choose from three different designs: mirror-finished Monoblock VI wheels with six double spokes, Monoblock F cross-spoke wheels or the new Monoblock R wheels where the spoke pairs are arranged in two different plains. Continental, Pirelli and Yokahama high-performance tires in sizes 255/35 ZR 21 in the front and 295/30 ZR 21 on the rear axle were selected as the optimal tires. A Brabus 22-inch tire/wheel combination for the S-Class celebrates its world debut at the 2013 IAA. The Brabus Monoblock G "Platinum Edition" forged wheels feature a combination of size 9Jx22 wheels and size 255/30 ZR 22 tires on the front axle with size 10Jx22 wheels and size 295/25 ZR 22 tires in back, and make full use of the available space below the wheel arches. To further enhance the high level of dynamic handling of the high-performance luxury sedan Brabus has developed a special control module for the air suspension of the S-Class. It lowers the ride height of the Brabus 850 6.0 Biturbo "iBusiness" by some 15 millimeters (0.6 in.) without impairing the outstanding ride comfort. Maximum stopping power is even more important than exceptional acceleration and thus the Brabus high-performance braking system is part of the technical highlights of this vehicle. It features anthracite-colored six-piston aluminum fixed calipers with golden Brabus logo and vented carbon-ceramic discs measuring 380 x 34 millimeters (14.9 x 1.3 in.) on the front axle. The carbon-ceramic discs were developed in cooperation with brake specialist Brembo, and are manufactured from an entirely new material. The new structure of the disc and the material drastically increases thermal diffusivity, resulting in a much higher performance of the braking system compared with conventional systems. The Brabus 850 6.0 Biturbo "iBusiness" is built to order. The multimedia system and all other Brabus tuning components are available for all current S-Class models. Brabus engine tuning is also available for all other engine variants. << Prev Page 2 of 2 |
