Brabus GLK V12

The Brabus GLK V12 reaches 60 mph in 3.74 s (100 km/h in 3.88 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.87 s, tripping the lights at 122.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.92 s and the eighth mile in 7.76 s, reaching 100 mph in 8.52 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the GLK V12

The 2009 Brabus GLK V12 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged supercar of 1,980 kg with 740 bhp, which works out at 374 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.92 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 836th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 15th quickest of the 24 Brabuss here. Its 122.4 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Brabus GLK V12 0-60 time?
The Brabus GLK V12 reaches 60 mph in 3.74 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 836th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Brabus GLK V12 quarter mile time?
11.87 s at 122.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.76 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.92 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Brabus GLK V12 have?
740 bhp and 1,980 kg, which is 374 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 322 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Brabus GLK V12?
Closest here on pace: Saleen SR (3.77 s), Dodge Viper SRT-10 612 PS (3.70 s), Lexus LFA (3.77 s). Each one can be raced against the Brabus GLK V12 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Brabus GLK V12 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
