Heritage · Brabus Rocket 1000
“1000 hp — the name is the specification.”
The body
Six point seven centimetres of intent
The carbon widebody is not decoration: the added width covers the Monoblock P wheels and feeds air to the brakes, the fixed carbon wing and diffuser manage a four-door that runs past 300 km/h. Red Rocket lettering on the tail states the family.
Inside the engine bay, the red-tinted carbon covers carry the plaque that matters: BRABUS 1000 BITURBO 4.5L, individually signed.
2024–
From Bottrop to Tokyo
Brabus sells in over a hundred countries, and the Rocket 1000's press life reflected it — the black four-door photographed against Tokyo neon, tyre smoke rolling past the Biturbo 1000 fender badge.
The car's role in the range has settled: it is the founding member of the modern Rocket family, and the drivetrain donor for everything that wears the name.
