The color black has come to represent power and strength, while gold has always been a symbol of opulence. Place them alongside each other, black and gold could mean dynamic luxury. That’s what the new Brabus 800 Black & Gold Edition is all about. It combines the power of 788 hp (800 PS) with a premium exterior and a lush interior.
Black And Gold Exterior
Just as its name says, the special model based on the current Mercedes G 63 AMG is finished in black and matched with gold-colored details including the brake calipers, BRABUS emblems and lettering as well as the struts in the radiator grille. It also features glossy carbon-fiber elements including the hood attachment and the LED light elements just above the windshield.
In addition, the new Brabus 800 Black & Gold Edition special model is fitted with the Brabus Widestar widebody version with a number of carbon elements. Of course, the rims of the special edition -- 23-inch Brabus Monoblock Y “Platinum Edition“ forged wheels – are also finished in gold.
The exterior looks of the Brabus 800 Black & Gold Edition are completed by two black chromed sidepipes of the Brabus stainless steel sports exhaust system.
Bucket Seats For Everyone
As expected, the black-and-gold color scheme continues inside, with the Brabus 800 Black & Gold Edition featuring exclusive Brabus fine leather interior. Not just the front occupants, but also the rear passengers can sit comfortably on individual bucket leather seats.
These rear bucket seats offer multi-contour adjustment, memory as well as integrated seat ventilation and heating. The seats are separated by the new Brabus console as covered in black leather and golden elements. This console doesn’t just serve as an armrest, as it also comes with cup holders (cooling and warming) and an integrated safe compartment.
788 HP Available On Tap
Boasting two turbochargers and several modifications, the special edition’s Brabus 800 4.0-liter biturbo engine delivers a peak output 788 hp (588 kW or 800 PS) as well as peak torque of 737 lb.-ft. (1,000 Nm).
This amount of power allows the all-wheel drive Brabus 800 Black & Gold Edition to sprint from zero to 62 mph in just 4.2 seconds and reach an electronically limited top speed of 149 mph. Are you ready to go black and gold?
