BRABUS ROCKET GTC DEEP RED

Born wild. And free. BRABUS ROCKET GTC DEEP RED.

The BRABUS ROCKET GTC DEEP RED is tailor-made BRABUS coachbuilding at the highest level. Mirroring the same uncompromising DNA as its hardtop shooting brake sibling, it merges the breathtaking dynamics of a modern hyper GT and the freedom of a cabriolet in a design made entirely from red exposed-structure carbon fiber. With the roof down, its wide, low silhouette transforms into an even more unique expression of prestige and individuality—every detail exuding the 1-Second-Wow. The BRABUS high-performance hybrid drivetrain produces 1,000 horsepower, making it one of the most powerful BRABUS ROCKETS of all time.

Design & Exterior. Defy Ordinary.

This supercar transforms the 1-Second-Wow design language and the high-performance qualities of the BRABUS ROCKET GTS into a strikingly styled, open-top Masterpiece of the highest level. Its body is manufactured entirely from carbon fiber using the prepreg autoclave process and, in line with the DEEP RED theme, finished with a striking red coating.

In addition to the thrilling signature styling, the BRABUS ROCKET GTC DEEP RED’s design boasts refined aerodynamics to achieve optimal driving stability at high speeds as well as significant downforce at both the front and rear axles. The BRABUS ROCKET front splitter not only fits perfectly to the wide front fenders on both sides, it also features an integrated spoiler that generates downforce at the front axle at high speeds. The large air intakes direct airflow to the radiators and front brakes.

From the wide front wheel arches, the side sills channel airflow toward the BRABUS ROCKET rear quarter panels, which give the new open-top BRABUS supercar its imposing width of 198.5 centimeters (78.1 in.) at the rear axle.

The captivating rear view is defined not only by the full-width, ducktail-design rear spoiler. The BRABUS ROCKET rear fascia, seamlessly aligned with the rear quarter panels, impresses with its integrated diffuser, which perfectly showcases the four titanium tailpipes of the BRABUS high-performance exhaust system—illuminated in red and, of course, clad in red exposed-structure carbon. Optimized in the wind tunnel, the combination of rear spoiler and diffuser generates aerodynamic downforce at high speeds, which, together with the front spoiler, ensures outstanding driving stability.

Power & Sound. Space race.

Beneath the carbon fiber hood, the combustion engine of the BRABUS ROCKET GTC DEEP RED’s high-end hybrid system delivers a system output of 735 kW / 1,000 hp. System torque is rated at 1,820 Nm (1,342 lb-ft), but is electronically limited to 1,620 Nm (1,195 lb-ft) to protect the vehicle’s drivetrain components.

In keeping with our long-standing philosophy of achieving high peak power and immense torque through increased displacement, the BRABUS ROCKET 1000 4.5-liter twin-turbo V8 engine was developed. This unit delivers an output of 585 kW / 796 hp and a maximum torque of 1,250 Nm (922 lb-ft), which is electronically limited to 1,050 Nm (774 lb-ft) in the vehicle.

The combustion engine’s power is transmitted to the road via a nine-speed sport transmission, which can be shifted either automatically or manually using paddle shifters on the steering wheel, and an electronically controlled all-wheel-drive system. High-tech lubricants for the engine and drivetrain are supplied by BRABUS technology partner MOTUL.

The hybrid roadster’s electric drive consists of a 150 kW / 204 hp synchronous motor, a specially designed automatic two-speed transmission and a 6.1 kWh lithium-ion battery.

The BRABUS ROCKET GTC DEEP RED is one of the fastest open-top hybrid cars in the world. Just 2.6 seconds after launch, the exclusive roadster reaches 100 km/h (62 mph). From a standstill, it takes only 9.5 seconds to hit 200 km/h (124 mph), and the 300 km/h (186 mph) mark is achieved in just 23.6 seconds. The top speed is electronically limited to 317 km/h (197 mph).

The hybrid supercar also delivers a thrilling soundscape: The BRABUS stainless steel high-performance exhaust system, equipped with special high-performance catalytic converters and particulate filters, not only allows the combustion engine to breathe more freely but also features active valve control. This lets the driver switch at the push of a button between a subtle “Coming Home” mode and the powerful sound of the V8 engine.

Wheels & Suspension. Brabusized.

The BRABUS ROCKET GTC DEEP RED is equipped with BRABUS Monoblock P “PLATINUM EDITION” five-spoke wheels in a center-lock design. Specially developed for the extra-wide, Kevlar-lined wheel arches, their production employs the latest forging and machining technology to achieve the perfect balance of light weight and exceptional strength. Red exposed-structure carbon aero-blades channel the heat generated during braking out of the wheel wells while driving.

To emphasize the hyper gran turismo’s unmistakable wedge-shaped profile, the front axle is fitted with 10.5Jx21 wheels and 275/35 ZR 21 SportContact 7 high-performance tires from BRABUS technology partner Continental. At the rear, 12Jx22 wheels with 335/25 ZR 22 tires make full use of the available space within the wide fenders.

Interior. Deep Red.

When the black, electro-hydraulically operated fabric top is open, the high-grade Masterpiece interior of the supercar—handcrafted by the BRABUS interior specialists—reveals its many intricate details. Color-coordinated with the exposed-structure carbon body of the BRABUS ROCKET GTC DEEP RED, the entire cockpit is upholstered in fine leather in a perfectly matched shade of red.

The perfect execution of all leatherwork is especially evident in the precise quilting in the BRABUS “Shell” design on the seat surfaces, the armrests of the door and side panels, the footwell trim and the leather floor mats. The seat surfaces also feature multiple embossed renditions of the signature BRABUS “Double-B” emblem.

To provide a sporty contrast to the elegant Masterpiece leather, the interior features a selection of BRABUS Signature Carbon elements. The pedal pads, parts of the steering wheel rim and the entry panels with illuminated BRABUS logo are made from the same high-tech material.

All trim elements in the cockpit, including the switches, air vents, speaker grilles, and bezels, have been finished in matte BRABUS “Shadow Gray.” ROCKET GTC logos on the passenger side of the dashboard, as well as on the side panels and seat belts of the front seats, add further distinctive accents.
