The BRABUS runs purely on electricity from its 66 kWh (62 kWh usable) battery. Official combined consumption sits at 17.6 kWh/100 km for a WLTP range of 415 km. Real-world figures commonly land between 15 and 20 kWh/100 km depending on pace and weather. A heat pump is fitted as standard to protect winter range. DC fast charging reaches 150 kW so a 10-80 % top-up takes roughly half an hour. the 22 kW onboard charger fills the pack from a three-phase wallbox in about three hours.
Routine servicing is required every two years or 30 000 km. An integrated service package covers the first inspection free and then wear items for three years or 45 000 km. Vehicle warranty is three years unlimited mileage once the package is activated. the high-voltage battery is covered for eight years or 200 000 km provided state of health stays above 70 %. Roadside assistance extends up to eight years when services stay with authorised partners.
Euro NCAP awarded the #3 five stars in 2023. Adult occupant protection scored 90 %, child 86 %, vulnerable road users 84 % and safety assist 85 %. Seven airbags including a far-side unit are standard. Smart Pilot Assist brings adaptive cruise with stop-and-go, lane-keep and lane-change assist, blind-spot monitoring, traffic-sign recognition, highway and traffic-jam assist, 360-degree camera and automatic parking. Autonomous emergency braking covers cars, pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists.
Day-to-day ownership is simple: plug-and-charge works at many public points, the app pre-conditions the cabin and battery, and the solid structure plus comprehensive ADAS kit keep occupants protected. Tyre and brake wear are the main consumables. the integrated package keeps early costs predictable.
