Brabus modified almost all Mercedes models and their latest project was based on Mercedes GLK. They created a tuning kit which includes engine improvements for all versions of this car, a new body kit, new rims and a lot of interior accessories. For the ones that bought the diesel GLK320 CDI 4MATIC version Brabus created the ECO PowerXtra D6 (III) engine kit which will boost the V6 engine to 272 HP and 590 Nm. With this improvement the car will accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.9 seconds and it could reach a maximum speed of 228 km/h. Brabus also created a special kit for the petrol version of this car, GLK 4MATIC. This kit is called B7 and it will increase the engine’s power with 15 HP.
