Cheapest BRABUS v Expensive BRABUS: DRAG RACE

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2
BRABUS fans, we ve got you with this one! We ve brought Mark McCann along with his BRABUS GLE 850, and he s about to face off against the cheapest BRABUS you can buy - and it s a Smart #1! So let s see how the two stack up. Starting with the GLE, it s packing an almighty 6-litre twin-turbo V8 that can produce 850hp and 1, 450Nm of torque. It s pretty heavy, mind, coming in at 2, 350kg, and its power is sent to all four wheels via a 7-speed automatic gearbox. And then we have the Smart #1. It s equipped with two electric motors, and these combine to produce 428hp and 584Nm. In terms of weight, lighter than the GLE, although it s still a bit heavy. It tips the scales at 1, 900kg.

There may well be something wrong with the GLE, but also 2. 4 tons is a LOT, and it looks as aerodynamic as a brick, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was developing what the stats say and it's all being wasted on pushing a huge mass through the air.
Although that Smart is kind of ugly. The styling on EVs seems to be either bland, utterly hideous or a combination of both. I'm yet to see one truly good looking EV, not helped by cars in general getting uglier by the day.

The problem with Mercedes being so clever, if there s even the slightest problem with the car it will limit the power, even though it has a brabus tune.
Mark! . you now owe it to us brabus fan boys to get that car looked at in great detail and find out what s wrong with it can t wait to watch that video!

reply

The first thing I did was look for the video that Matt reviewed the standard GLE 63 with its 4. 0 612hp engine and it was actually was faster over the quarter mile.
No one should believe the claims Brabus is making irregardless how it sounds.

reply

A be troc r does a 12 something quarter mile, has 221 kw 400 nm, that Mercedes obviously has either an issue somewhere or it s a standard model with badges stuck on to it, we all see standard bmw/Audi/Mercedes with amg/m badges etc

if brian o connor appeared in the fast and the furious with an electric family car, with a baby seat in the back, and beat them all to the line, there would not be such thing as a franchise nowadays.
reply

Forget the 1/4mile. That Brabus needs to be in a dyno drag race. looks like Brabus put on an appearance package and exhaust on an otherwise stock GLE. Brabus needs to answer for this.
reply

I mean. Mark being happy when the Smart hits the limiter and he crawls past. The car should have already been waaaaaay ahead by that point. Yes, the Smart is a quick car but come on!
reply

Honestly I can't remember a car that Mccan brought to the show that was actually puttin' up what it should do, it might be a curse or something related to its usage of his cars.
reply

Point proven brabus could do better with their petrol motors Mercedes always left behind by their competitors would love to see Mercedes beat Audi and bmw in a drag race
reply

Mark is the problem, not the car. If you're all remember well, he has brought several supercars to carwow drag races, and it was always embarrassing. He is the problem
reply

The Merc can have those stats but it's a house on wheels. The drag is gonna cut the stats in half. Pretty pointless to be honest. The standard AMG would be better
reply

why mark always lose drag race i guess something wrong with his driving skill cuz he always sit in the better car than others even w same Aventadors or urus
reply

this guy broke his Mercedes so bad that he can't even do 11 seconds like it should do without the brabus upgrade. Yes, a new GLC should do 11 seconds stoke.
reply

Matt does not own an electric car that is hilarious, but why would you know do not save the planet they are not practical they are expensive they are boring
reply

Mark will win a jump test. Matt to do in future Mark v Matt jump test. Ok Brabus I will take the EV. The change is imminent so just do it MATT go EV.
reply

Easy way to show there s something wrong is to put a normal gle63 against the smart, the standard gle63 should still win with a decent margin.
reply

Wait. The Brabus has a 6. 0-liter? From what? Is it the 5. 5-liter enlarged, or is it a 4. 0-liter that has had some major boring and stroking done?
reply

How on earth a car with 850hrspwr and 1400 nm of tourqe was staying on the same level in rolling race as that 4hundred smth horsepower electric.
reply

its just that almost all of mark's cars just underperform because he doesnt clean the air filters and thats why his svj was battered too
