Brabus Rocket GTS Deep Blue Is A Carbon Fiber Clownshoe With A Thousand Horsepower
Late last year, Brabus revealed the Rocket GTS, a Mercedes-AMG SL 63 turned into a shooting brake that is more than a little reminiscent of BMW's so-called 'Clownshoe,' the Z3 M Coupe. Clad in carbon fiber and delivering close to a thousand horsepower, there wasn't much room for improvement, but the German tuner has found a way to get closer to perfection with a blue-tinted take on the terrific two-door called the Rocket GTS Deep Blue. This package reportedly adds $68,000 to the cost of the already-expensive $1.1 million Rocket GTS. Brabus modifies various Mercedes-AMG models, but the monoblock wheels on its Rocket GTS are exclusive to the model. The P Platinum Edition rims measure 21 inches in the front, with 22s filling the rear arches, and they're designed to funnel air inward to cool the brakes. They also do a fine job of disguising the extra width, where the rear axle is now more than 78 inches wide, while an integrated ducktail-style spoiler aims to improve downforce. The entire body, claims Brabus, has been optimized in the wind tunnel using computer-aided design and computational flow dynamics software, so the body isn't just for show. Brabus says that all the carbon has also shaved some weight from the car, though it doesn't say how much. With such exquisite fitted luggage and the addition of a roof, the difference likely isn't much, but anything is an improvement when you start with a 5,115-pound curb weight. Brabus could easily have boosted the original 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 hybrid system's output beyond its standard 805 horsepower and called it a day, but on a project this special, the tuner chose to completely overhaul the powertrain by boring it out to 4,407 cc. Along with other modifications, the engine produces 784 hp and 921 lb-ft of torque on its own. Alongside the SL 63 S E Performance's rear-mounted electric motor, overall output is now 1,000 metric horses (985 bhp) and 1,342 lb-ft of torque. Because the 9-speed automatic transmission might not sustain that much twist for extended periods, Brabas has restricted torque to 1,195 lb-ft. We're sure that's enough - 0-62 mph takes just 2.6 seconds, and reaching 124 mph from rest is quoted at 9.5 seconds. 0-186 mph? 23.6 seconds, and if you keep your foot planted, the Rocket GTS will keep going until 197 mph. Brabus has built several blue carbon fiber cars in the past and even some green ones, so if your pockets are deep enough, we're sure just about any tint can be applied. Practicality, performance, and preening all in one package? Perfect. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Tesla Opens Massive Off-Grid Supercharger Oasis in California
Tesla has officially flipped the switch on the first half of its new "Oasis" Supercharger site in Lost Hills, California - and it's not just another row of charging stalls. This is a fully off-grid, solar-powered megasite, quietly breaking ground on what might be the future of roadside EV infrastructure. With 84 out of 168 planned V4 Superchargers now operational, the Oasis site delivers up to 325 kW per stall using nothing but sun and storage. Tesla installed 11 megawatts of solar generation and ten Megapacks - each capable of storing vast amounts of energy - allowing the station to run entirely independent of the grid. Only 1.5 MW of grid power is tied in, essentially as a backup. It's a long-teased concept made real: a sustainable, scalable energy ecosystem with no utility company in location isn't accidental either. Set along the I-5 corridor between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the site caters to one of the busiest EV travel routes in the U.S. The first phase went live just ahead of Fourth of July weekend, giving Tesla drivers clean, fast charging during peak travel. Twelve of the active stalls are pull-through units, accommodating vehicles with trailers or boats - a nod to Tesla's growing truck and SUV audience. Related: Tesla's Robotaxi Dreams Face a Harsh Reality Check The rest of the site, including the remaining 84 stalls and a planned driver lounge, is scheduled to open later this year. Once complete, Oasis will likely become the largest Supercharger station in the world - a symbol of what Tesla can build when it isn't tangled in red tape or waiting for local power utilities to catch move also arrives at a time of shifting fortunes for Tesla's wider Supercharger network. In recent weeks, some stations have reportedly disappeared from maps along major U.S. routes, raising questions about infrastructure strategy and local disputes. Tesla's competitors aren't sitting still either. Charging technology is evolving rapidly, and new rivals are starting to surpass Tesla in raw speed and energy delivery. One such case involves a recent breakthrough that's pushing charging times even lower, making Tesla's own hardware look slightly dated by while others chase specs, Tesla continues expanding its reach. More automakers are joining the Supercharger ecosystem - including legacy brands now aligning with Tesla's North American Charging Standard (NACS), reinforcing the company's role as gatekeeper in the EV transition. What makes Oasis so compelling isn't just its scale or solar credentials. It's the proof-of-concept it represents - an off-grid, high-capacity station built quickly and without relying on overburdened utilities. If it works in Lost Hills, it can work in dozens of other places across the country. Tesla's Oasis may not just be the biggest charging site yet - it might also be the smartest.
