RACE! South Africa, an automotive customization shop and the sole importer and distributors of the worlds top brands in South Africa, has welcomed the BRABUS XLP 900 6×6 Adventure to its massive in Johannesburg.
First unveiled in July 2003, this particular six-wheeled, 900-horsepower BRABUS pickup truck started life as a new MANUFAKTUR classic grey non-metallic W465 Mercedes-AMG G63.


XLP 900 6×6 Adventure, an upgrade of 800-horsepower XLP 800 6×6, is the first collaboration between German-based tuner, BRABUS, and RACE!, the official local dealer for BRABUS in South Africa.


“This is the very first full custom build with @brabus in Germany coordinated by the official local dealer for BRABUS in South Africa, @race1,” said RACE!.
Unlike the base G63 SUV, the go-anywhere BRABUS pickup truck gets new front bumper with an integrated winch and rides on a set of 22-inch monoblock eight-spoke wheels wrapped in Pirelli’s all-terrain Scorpion tyres.



Powering the BRABUS XLP 900 6×6 Adventure is the same twin-turbocharged 4.5-liter V-8 powertrain, which churns out the power of 900 horses and 922 ft lbs of torque (1,250 Nm).

According to RACE!, pricing of the hulking Mercedes-AMG G63-based Brabus XLP 900 6×6 pickup starts at €1 million ($1.1 million) before taxes and despite the price, there has been a lot of interest from new customers.
“The amount of work and level of detail on this *1 million Euro build is mind-blowing, and according to RACE! there has been a lot of interest from new customers, so while this may be the first in SA, it will not be the last,” said RACE!.
