The new Brabus Rocket 1000 is a 987bhp four-door supercar

A new four-door coupe created by German tuning firm Brabus looks set to become one of the most powerful hybrid cars ever made.

Powered by a 4.5-litre, Biturbo V8 linked to an electric motor, the Rocket 1000 is set to produce around 987bhp and a peak torque output of 1,820Nm.

Thanks to all-wheel-drive traction the Rocket will go from 0-60mph in 2.7 seconds and can reach 186 mph in just 23 seconds.

The rear consists of a multi-piece rear wing and a Brabus rear diffuser, which gives a clearer view of the carbon-jacketed titanium exhaust pipes.

Inside, a combination of black leather and synthetic fibre is used for the seats and headlining, while other parts of the interior feature a ‘heritage’ brand pattern with embossed ‘77’ logos are there to commemorate the year 1977– the year Brabus was founded.

Pricing for this very exclusive model is set to be around £385,000 or €450,000 which is £200,000 more than the standard Mercedes. However you’ll have to act quickly, with only 25 examples set to be made, it won’t take long for them all to be sold.
