Known globally for its enhanced high-performance Mercedes-Benz vehicles and partnership with the smart automotive brand, German tuning house, Brabus has appointed Zagame Automotive to carry out its customisation process in Australia.
The two partners will reveal a one-off Brabus 800 SOMO (Sondermodelle) at the Melbourne Motor Show (April 5 to 6) at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.
It is the sole right-hand drive model to exist in the world, based on the Mercedes-AMG G 63 and it will be unveiled by some senior Brabus executives who will fly in from Germany, especially for the event.
For the first time on Australian shores, car enthusiasts will be able to see some limited editions of Brabus vehicles that have set the global benchmark for performance, luxury, and innovative engineering.
Zagame Autobody is one of a handful of autobody and tuning houses that has been authorised by Brabus to create its unique and special vehicles.
Before this collaboration, Mercedes-Benz owners would have to ship their vehicles to one of six Brabus plants located in Germany.
“It’s significant for us both for the Zagame Brand and the broader automotive world to be trusted with this process,” says Zagame Group general manager, Andre Selliah.
“Zagame Automotive is already renowned for luxury and high-performance cars. To be certified by Branbus through our Autobody division means we have been recognised not only for our craftmanship but for our ability to transform a motor car into something special. ”
“It’s a mix of pride and pressure, the expectations are high and each project becomes a statement of our capability and commitment to excellence,” he says.
