    Dubai Police Brabus B63S 700 Widestar
    Brabus has revealed its B63S 700 Widestar Mercedes G 63 AMG for the Dubai police force, which makes its international debut at the Dubai International Motor Show today.

    Thanks to the company’s B63S-700 performance kit, which consists of a pair of larger turbochargers along with a new stainless steel exhaust system with adjustable butterfly valve, high-performance metal catalysts and remapped ECU software, output from the 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine jump from 400 kW (544 hp) and 760 Nn of torque to 515 kW (700 hp) and 960 Nm. Those tweaks result in an impressive 0 – 100 km/h time of 4.9 seconds, while top speed is limited to 240 km/h (149 mph).

    Along with police livery, a front protection bar and roof-mounted LED light-bar, the G-Wagen wears Brabus’ Widestar body package, comprising a front spoiler with integrated LED lights, radiator grille insert with Brabus emblem, fender flares adding 12 cm to the vehicle’s width, stainless-steel running boards, roof spoiler and a rear fascia with underride guard. The aesthetics are completed with a set of Monoblock R Platinum Edition alloy wheels measuring 11 x 23-inches, while the Brabus Ride Control suspension system, featuring automatic damper adjustment, detects speed and lateral forces before choosing the optimal setting for the situation.

    Moving inside, the cabin has been upholstered in black leather and red perforated leather, carbon fibre trim inlays and stainless steel scuff plates with illuminated Brabus logos.
