BRABUS supercars have been part of the absolute elite of high-performance automobiles for more than four decades. With the new BRABUS ROCKET 1000 “1 of 25”, the Bottrop-based vehicle manufacturer accredited with the German Federal Motor Transport Authority continues this tradition with its first supercar that produces 1,000 horsepower. The basis is provided by the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E PERFORMANCE four-door coupe.As the name of this supercar limited to just 25 vehicles worldwide indicates, the BRABUS ROCKET 1000 “1 of 25” produces a system output of 736 kW / 1,000 hp. Even more massive is the increase in peak torque from 1,470 Nm to 1,820 Nm (1,084 to 1,342 lb-ft). This value is reduced to 1,620 Nm (1,195 lb-ft) in the car to protect the driveline.The hybrid drive of this exclusive automobile with 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive consists of an internal combustion engine, the 4.5-liter BRABUS ROCKET 1000 V8 Biturbo increased-displacement engine, which produces an impressive 157 horsepower more than the production engine rated at 470 kW / 639 hp, and an electric motor that generates 150 kW / 204 hp.The performance on the road speaks for itself: The sprint from rest to 100 km/h (62 mph) takes a mere 2.7 seconds and to 300 km/h (186 mph) just 23.7 seconds. The top speed of the new BRABUS supercar is electronically limited to 316 km/h (196 mph).The car’s outstanding performance is accompanied by spectacular looks and highly efficient aerodynamics. The BRABUS ROCKET 1000 “1 of 25” widebody version ensures the hallmark BRABUS “1-Second-Wow” effect and has a host of elements made from exposed carbon with a high-gloss clear coat finish.Under the carbon fenders are the newly developed king-sized BRABUS Monoblock P hi-tech forged wheels of size 10.5Jx21 at the front and size 12Jx22 on the rear axle. The high-performance tires up to size 335/25 ZR 22 at the rear are supplied by technology partner Continental.The extravagant character of the BRABUS ROCKET 1000 “1 of 25” also includes a highly exclusive MASTERPIECE interior that impresses not only with its exquisite material selection, but also on account of its sophisticated design and precision workmanship in every detail.

More than 1,000 people have been evacuated in the Spanish regions of Valencia (south-east) and Aragon (north-east) where forest fires have already burnt some 900 hectares, according to local authorities. Four hundred firefighters, rescue workers and military personnel, fifteen planes, seaplanes and helicopters worked to extinguish the flames, according to the Valencia rescue service. A nearby field hospital was set up and the Red Cross opened a reception centre for evacuees in a gymnasium in the town of Segorbe. Spain was hit last summer by some 500 fires that burned over 300,000 hectares of land, making it the most affected European country, according to the European Forest Fire Information System. IMAGES
