Smart Brabus Roadster Coupe V6 BiTurbo: specs, price, horsepower, top speed and acceleration 0 – 100

Almost 20 years ago, tuning house Brabus embarked on an ambitious project to transform the Smart compact roadster into a serious tuner car with a turbo-six under the bonnet.

 

Since the V6 Twin Turbo takes up virtually the entire volume of the engine compartment as it consists of two three-cylinder power units, the fuel tank has been relocated to the front of the car, taking up almost all the space in the luggage compartment. The rubber-moulded fuel tank holds 50 litres.

A wide front spoiler and side sills, two exhaust pipes, a pair of side ‘flaps’ and two small black deflectors attached to the sides of the front bumper enhance the exterior’s swiftness. Polished five-spoke alloy wheels measuring 6Jx17 at the front and 8Jx17 at the rear are shod in Michelin Pilot Sport tyres measuring 205/40 R17 and 255/35 R17. To avoid the overly traditional Smart’s silver-and-black colour scheme, the body is painted bright red from bottom to top.

Smart Brabus Roadster Coupe V6 BiTurbo engine:

At the heart of the ‘Mega Smart’ is a V6 170hp turbo engine, created from two Smart three-cylinder engines joined at an angle. The engine is a true work of technical art with a modified underside, a four-bearing crankshaft and an upgraded cylinder head. The lubrication system, twin-spark ignition, turbocharger, throttles, and electronic multipoint injection are taken from the standard three-cylinder engine. That said, the 1,396cc V6 is only 30 kg heavier than Smart’s standard three-cylinder engine. Its power cut-off is at 5,500 rpm, with a maximum “healthy” torque of 159 Nm “located” between 2,150 and 4,450 rpm. Equipped with a sequential five-speed automatic transmission.
