The Brabus P 900 Rocket Edition, a pickup built from the Mercedes-AMG G 63, is listed at €846,944 with Germany’s 19% value-added tax, or €711,718 without it, and Brabus will build 10.
I read the price on the company’s for-sale page on October 29, 2026, a week after the October 22 announcement.
The truck carries the V8 from the 900 Rocket Edition hardtop and the 900 Rocket Edition Cabrio, and a 50-centimeter frame stretch, the same length Brabus gives its XLP 800 Adventure pickup.
That engine is rated at 662 kW at 6,200 rpm. Brabus writes it as 900 hp in metric horsepower; by the U.S. measure it is 888 hp.
Torque is 1,250 Nm, or 922 lb-ft, at 2,900 rpm, and the engine software holds it to 1,050 Nm, or 774 lb-ft, in the truck to protect the driveline. The claimed time to 100 km/h, or 62 mph, is 3.7 seconds.
Key Takeaways
- Brabus will build 10 P 900 Rocket Edition pickups worldwide, announced October 22, 2026, on the W 465 Mercedes-AMG G 63.
- The for-sale listing reads €846,944 with 19% German VAT and €711,718 net, ex works Bottrop. Brabus publishes no dollar price.
- Output is 662 kW, which Brabus quotes as 900 metric hp. That is 888 hp by the U.S. measure, and torque is held to 1,050 Nm in the truck.
- The frame grows 50 centimeters behind the cab. The bed has carbon side walls, a side-opening metal tailgate, soft-teak decking and two lockable boxes.
- The pickup sits about 45 millimeters lower than a G 63 on 24-inch wheels, and Brabus prints two rear tire sizes for it, 345/25 and 355/25.
- It is priced €168,799 above the 900 Rocket Edition hardtop and €46,589 below the XLP 800 Adventure, both marked sold.
The Frame Grows 50 Centimeters Behind the Cab
Brabus adds an extension module to the G-Class‘s steel ladder frame and moves the rear suspension back by 50 centimeters, or 19.7 inches.
A steel bulkhead with a heated window closes the four-door cabin behind the rear seats. The bed floor and the tailgate, which swings open to the side, are metal; the bed walls are carbon fiber laid up in prepreg, and Brabus lists a 205-millimeter overhang for the bed.
Soft-teak decking with red Brabus lettering covers the floor, and two lockable, waterproof boxes sit against the bulkhead.
A spec plate in the left bed wall carries an NFC chip that opens the truck’s Digital Product Passport on the Aura blockchain, the authenticity register of a consortium whose members include LVMH, the Prada Group, Cartier and OTB. Brabus registers the truck there to help prevent counterfeiting, it says.
Inside, the rear doors open to 90 degrees on Brabus’s Easy Entry hinges, and an instrument console in the Alcantara headliner shows back-seat passengers the truck’s speed, engine rpm, outside temperature and G-forces.
662 kW Is 888 hp by the U.S. Measure
The G 63’s 3,982 cc V8 goes to 4,407 cc in Bottrop with 84-millimeter bores, forged pistons and a billet crankshaft with a 100-millimeter stroke. Two Brabus turbochargers with 52-millimeter compressors run 1.4 bar of boost.
Brabus puts the gain at 315 metric hp over the standard engine.
Horsepower on a Brabus spec sheet is in PS, the German unit. Brabus’s own page for the XLP 800 Adventure converts 800 hp to 788 bhp; by the standard conversion, 662 kW is 888 hp.
Top speed is capped at 240 km/h, or 149 mph, while the speedometer Brabus fits reads to 300.

Brabus Prints Two Rear Tire Sizes
Monoblock II EVO Platinum Edition wheels, 24 inches in diameter, are 10 inches wide in front and 12 at the rear, and their three-spoke design carries exposed-carbon aeroblades. Front tires are 295/30 ZR 24 Hankook Ventus, developed by Hankook for Brabus’s 24-inch G-Class wheels. For the rear, the announcement and the model page’s text say 345/25 ZR 24; the equipment lists on the model page and the for-sale listing say 355/25 ZR 24.
Brabus’s pages for the 900 Rocket Edition Cabrio split the same way, 345/25 in the text and 355/25 in the equipment list, on the same 12-inch wheel.
On suspension, the text and the equipment list disagree as well: the text describes RideControl aluminum coilovers with damping chosen through the Drive Select switch, and the list says sport springs with adjustable ride height. Only the text gives a figure: about 45 millimeters, or 1.8 inches, lower than a G 63.
€46,589 Below the Sold XLP 800 Adventure
Brabus’s other four-wheel G 63 pickup, the XLP 800 Adventure, was priced at €893,532 and is marked sold. It rides on portal axles that lift it to 47 centimeters, or 18.5 inches, of ground clearance, on 22-inch wheels with 325/55 Pirelli Scorpion all-terrain tires, and its 588 kW (800 metric hp) engine takes 4.8 seconds to 100 km/h with a 210 km/h cap.
The P 900’s wheelbase grows by the same 50 centimeters, it sits lower where the XLP rides higher, and it is 1.1 seconds quicker to 100 km/h.

At that rate the P 900’s net price is about $792,000 before shipping, import duty and registration.
Mercedes-Benz USA asks $198,750 for the G 63 the truck starts from.
The P 900 is the 13th G 63 build with a published price since I wrote up the other 12 on October 7, and the range still runs from €559,320 to €1,333,775.
The P 900 Lands Between Two Builds Brabus Has Already Sold
The P 900 Rocket Edition is a 10-truck run of the Mercedes-AMG G 63 with a 662 kW V8, a 50-centimeter frame stretch and a carbon-walled bed, priced at €846,944 with German VAT. That is €168,799 more than the 30-car hardtop with this engine and €46,589 less than the XLP 800 Adventure pickup, and both of those are marked sold. The price is in euros at the factory in Bottrop; the $792,000 is my conversion of the net figure, and Brabus has not published one for the United States.
