Brabus has unveiled a new super truck for the well-to-do looking to check-mate everyone at the nearest valet parking lot. It is called the Brabus 800 Adventure XLP Superblack. This new vehicle adds a black cherry to the top of an already fully-loaded Brabus-tuned sundae. Meant to be a higher spec variant of the Brabus Adventure XLP, the Superblack is excess at full power. The Adventure XLP Superblack is based on the Mercedes-AMG G63. The SUV is converted into a dual-cab pickup truck which increases the vehicle’s length to 17.4-feet. Brabus upgraded the truck’s suspension with front and rear portal axles to improve the truck’s ground clearance from the standard 8.8-inches to 19.1-inches. In addition, the Superblack rolls on 22-inch Brabus forged wheels wearing Pirelli Scorpion all-terrain 36-inch tires. Other off-road accessories include a front winch, a spare wheel mount in the truck bed, and an LED-covered roof rack.
The Superblack is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 tuned by Brabus to produce 790-hp and 737 lb.-ft of torque. The power is sent to all four wheels via a nine-speed automatic transmission. As a result, the Brabus 800 Adventure XLP Superblack can accelerate to 60 mph in 4.8-seconds and onward to a top speed of 130 mph. Not bad for a truck weighing nearly 6,500 pounds.
As you’d expect, the interior is dressed in black. The bespoke leather upholstery covers the seats, door cards, and footwells. Carbon fiber and leather make up the truck’s trim throughout the cabin. However, it’s the headliner that captures the eye with 77 graphics embossed called the Heritage pattern, celebrating 40 years of Brabus history. Brabus has not released official pricing for the Superblack yet, and delivery takes between six to twelve months. However, if you can’t wait, the Brabus 800 Adventure XLP Superblack shown in press photos is currently for sale with a price tag of over $800,000 and 621 miles on the odometer.
