In time for the market launch of the new Mercedes-Benz GLK, Brabus presents an extensive and exclusive customization program. The program includes performance tuning for all engine variants, gasoline and diesel, sporty yet elegant body components, one-piece and multi-piece wheels with matching suspension solutions, and exclusive interior options.

More power and - more importantly - more torque for more driving fun and better fuel economy: Brabus also offers engine tuning for the GLK-Class, backed by the exemplary Brabus Tuning Warranty® of three years, up to 100,000 kilometers or 62,000 miles.

For the top-of-the-line turbo diesel model GLK 320 CDI 4MATIC Brabus offers its ECO PowerXtra D6 (III) tuning that delivers an additional 48 hp (47 bhp) / 35.3 kW and a peak torque of 590 Nm (435 lb-ft). It turns the SUV into one of the sportiest diesel models in its class. The sprint from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) takes just 6.9 seconds, top speed is 228 km/h (142 mph). Naturally Brabus power tuning meets the same stringent EURO IV emission limits as the production engine.

The gasoline-powered V6 model Mercedes-Benz GLK 350 4MATIC equipped with Brabus B7 power kit gains 15 hp (DIN and bhp) / 11 kW for a new rated power output of 287 hp (283 bhp) / 211.2 kW. For even more power Brabus has developed its Brabus 4.0 displacement engine, also available for the GLK 280 4MATIC. 332 hp (327 bhp) / 244 kW and a peak torque of 420 Nm (310 lb-ft) at 4,200 rpm provide plenty of added driving fun and excellent performance: A sprint time of just 6.1 seconds for 0-100 km/h (62 mph) and a new top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph) speak volumes.

All Brabus engines are lubricated exclusively with ARAL high-performance motor oil. The fully stainless-steel Brabus quad sport-exhaust systems lend all GLK models a powerful exhaust note.

Sporty design paired with aerodynamic efficiency and top-notch quality: The Brabus designers upgrade the striking styling of the Mercedes-Benz GLK with an extensive body-components program that is manufactured in OEM quality from high-end Pur-R-Rim plastics.

The face of the SUV receives a dynamic upgrade with the Brabus front apron. This aerodynamic-enhancement component was developed in the wind tunnel, and features daytime running lights as well as optional auxiliary high beams and fog lamps. The innovative two-piece Brabus roof attachment with integrated LED position lights further upgrades the front of the GLK.

Homogeneously shaped Brabus rocker panels create a perfect aerodynamic transition between front and rear wheel arches. LED lights integrated into the underside of the panels illuminate the ground on either side of the SUV for safe entering and exiting of the vehicle in the dark.

The Brabus rear apron with centrally located reflector and cutouts left and right for the stock exhaust or the Brabus quad sport exhaust system upgrades the SUV's rear. The new Brabus tailpipe styling is key to the striking rear appearance of the customized SUV. The Brabus roof spoiler with its red LED position lights left and right is attached to the lift gate.

Brabus offers its customers a multitude of possible tire/wheel combinations for the Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class. The list ranges from Monoblock A wheels in size 8.5Jx17 with general operating certificate to 21-inch high-end versions mounted with matching high-performance tires from Brabus technology partners Pirelli and YOKOHAMA.

The largest combination features wheels in size 9Jx21, available in various versions, from the sporty Monoblock S light-alloy wheels with five double spokes to the Monoblock E version with nine spokes and polished outer flange, to especially exclusive fully polished forged multi-piece wheels in the classic Brabus Monoblock VI design. The largest approved tires for front and rear axle measure 255/35 R 21 in size.

For even more agile handling and a ride height lowered by some 35 millimeters (1.4 inches) Brabus offers either sport springs or a complete suspension that offers a somewhat firmer ride than the production one.

Exclusive interior design has always been a special strength of Brabus. The extensive program also offers owners of a Mercedes-Benz GLK countless individual options.

The range of available Brabus accessories includes stainless-steel scuff plates with illuminated Brabus logo, various versions of an ergonomically shaped sport steering wheel, and even interior trim sets made from high-quality woods with various grains or from genuine carbon fiber. In order to transform the rear cabin of the GLK into a multimedia lounge the Brabus interior designers have developed special Brabus consoles for the seatbacks of the front seats. Each of the precisely fitting consoles includes a 7-inch LCD screen and an integrated DVD player.

The company-own Brabus upholstery shop fulfills customers' customization requests in any desired color and with a wide variety of exquisite materials and numerous upholstery designs. With meticulous precision the specialists create superb interiors custom-tailored to the individual customers' preferences.

:-X sono sempre più convinto che chi acquista MB lo fa solo perchè bada alla qualità ed a nient'altro :-X

Trovo questa "macchina", in tutte le sue declinazioni, un vero obbrobrio!  :-X :-X :-X :-X

Non so, a dire la verità ci sto facendo un po' l'occhio  :o ;D

La risposta tedesca al Ducato 3.0!

:'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

Non sono d'accordo, il Ducato è molto più bello!  ;D

Pure io, mi sembra un pò meno lezioso del solito SUV, più tipo 4x4 "serio". Ma a me comunque piace il Land Cruiser, quello comprerei se fossi costretto a prendere un 4x4. Peccato per Patarix che non abbia i miei gusti, si risparmierebbe probabilmente un pò di problemi sulle stradacce delle sue parti  :o

me la fecero vedere a stoccarda la scorsa estate.

da furoi è carina spigolosa, dentro non m'aggrada.

la q5 imho è pi piacevole, fermo restando che non amo i suv.
