High performance par Excellence was at the very top of the specifications for the developers. The BRABUS PowerXtra B40S-750 performance upgrade unleashes the hidden reserves of the turbocharged four-liter V8. To this end, the power unit engineers developed two BRABUS custom turbochargers with a compressor unit enlarged to 52 millimeters (2 in), and a modified core assembly with reinforced axial bearing. The boost pressure they produce is limited to 1.7 bar max. This required, among other things, reprogramming the electronic boost pressure control. Comprehensive bench tests and extensive test drives on public roads and racetracks were also conducted to devise new maps for injection and ignition. The new control data are introduced into the electronic engine controls by the plug-and-play Brabus PowerXtra module.

The result is outstanding: After the modifications, engine power is up by 121 kW / 165 hp (162 bhp) and torque by 100 Nm (74 lb-ft). In keeping with its name, the BRABUS 750 power unit produces a peak power of 552 kW / 750 hp (740 bhp) at 6,100 rpm, and an impressive peak torque of 900 Nm (664 lb-ft), which is already on tap at a low 4,000 rpm. The BRABUS 750 Bodo Buschmann Edition 1 of 25 is equipped with a SPEEDSHIFT nine-speed transmission, whose gears are shifted automatically or manually with the paddle shifters on the steering wheel, making it one of the most agile cars of its kind. From rest, the sports car weighing about 1.9 metric tons (4,190 lbs.) catapults itself to 100 km/h (62 mph) in a mere 3.3 seconds. The top speed is electronically limited to 315 km/h (196 mph).
