At Essen Motor Show, Brabus presented a complex tuning package for the open-top Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG roadster. The tuning package offers refinements for the engine bay and appearance.

First of all, the SLS AMG's engine bay has been reworked with a new high-performance sports exhaust system with quad pipe and a new ECU map. Allowing the 6.2-liter V8 engine to develop 611 hp instead of its stock 571 hp.

For the exterior, the SLS AMG Roadster has been refined using carbon fiber aerodynamic kit that was initially developed for the gullwing-door coupe. That carbon fiber aerodynamic kit comprises of a front spoiler, newly designed air vents for the front fenders, side skirts with illuminated Brabus logos, side air-vent for the rear fascia, gas tank cap, a new rear bumper with side air vents and a diffuser with integrated quad-exhaust, plus a discreet boot-lid spoiler. These aero components can be painted in either a high-gloss finish or a matte finish or in any color buyers want.

Aside from the new carbon fiber aerodynamic kit, the roadster has also been fitted with an adjustable sport suspension from Bilstein (reduces the height by 40 mm), an optional Front Lift System, and also 21- and 22-inch monoblock F “Platinum Edition” wheels.

Last but no least, the interior has been reworked with finest leather and Alcantara materials and carbon-fiber or exotic-wood trims, matte-anodized pedals, stainless-steel scuff plates with backlit BRABUS logo and also a new speedometer with a 400-km/h (250-mph) dial.
