Carbon fibre, racing inspired looks and power. These form the Brabus motto for the special Brabus Ultimate R, based on the smart fortwo. Its three-cylinder turbocharged engine produces 82.4 kW and contributes to the city car’s agility, as does its sports suspension with high-performance tyres – up to size 235/30 R18 on the rear axle. The racing-look exterior of the car features a special ‘gun metal’ paint job and carbon fibre components. Sport seats upholstered with Alcantara provide firm support for driver and passenger.

The Ulitimate R delivers the kind of performance that its looks promise: The 82.4 kW peak power is produced at 5 750 rpm and peak torque of 150 N.m is available between 3 300 and 3 900 rpm. Brabus says the performance figures of the little speedster promise tons of driving fun. From rest, the Ultimate R zooms to 100 km/h in just 9.5 seconds and top speed is electronically limited to 170 km/h.
