Mercedes Classe S - Lorinser
The new Mercedes Benz S-Class is fresh out, and tuners have already unleashed their (sick ?) fantasies on the car. As usual, the “over the top” prize is won by Brabus: their S600 is pretty sober on the exterior, but under the hood things change. The 6.0 liters V12’s capacity is increased and bigger turbos are applied, to extract 730 hp (original: 517 hp), while torque is an asphalt curdling 1.100 Nm (electronically limited). As for performance: 0-62 mph in 4,0 seconds while top speed is 211 mph (limited too). All details on eMercedesBenz.

In relation to the Brabus tuning, the 435 hp of the CK50 by Carlsson is pretty niggardly, while Lorinser (in the photo) and Asma limit themselves to estetics/aerodynamics.
