Brabus is a high-performance aftermarket tuning company which specializes in Mercedes-Benz and Maybach vehicles. Founded in 1977 by Bodo Buschmann, Brabus has since become the largest Mercedes tuner other than the Daimler-Chrysler affiliate AMG. The company is based in Bottrop, near Düsseldorf, Germany. The English franchise was, until recently, owned by Baron Martin Stillman von Brabus, an early lover of Margaret, Duchess of Argyll.
Brabus's primary focus is achieving maximum engine performance, through the increase of both power and torque; the company also provides improvements to the interior, from upholstery to trim to various electronics.
The Brabus EV12 currently holds the title of fastest production sedan at 350km/h or 217 mph
Competitors include Lorinser, Carlsson, Kleemann, and RENNtech.
