Everyone has come to expect over-the-top opulence from Brabus, and the Big Boy 1200 is certainly no exception. Revealed recently, the ultra-luxury brand’s first motorhome is ridiculous and opulent in all the right ways, ensuring regular people could only dream of ever affording it.
Check out the SV Rover hypertruck.
Measuring 12 meters long (that’s almost 40 feet) and containing over 30 square meters of living space (about 323 square feet), the Big Boy 1200 feels airy inside. That’s in part thanks to the powered slide-outs in the bedroom and main living area.
But this Brabus is about more than just size. Made in collaboration with STX Motorhomes, the interior looks more akin to a Manhattan high rise condo with an airiness to everything. That effect is accentuated by top-of-the-line appliances, mood lighting, quilted leather upholstery, Alcantara and carbon trim, and other fine finishes.
The double-glazed windows contain blackout roller shades, while power skylights help add to the open feeling with a touch of a button.
Keeping everyone entertained even in the middle of nowhere doesn’t even require stepping outside, although we highly recommend playing in the great outdoors. This vehicle not only has Starlink satellite internet and a WiFi router, it also contains two 43-inch TVs, a high-end sound system, and a PlayStation 5 game console.
To keep all the onboard systems powered, there are eight rooftop solar panels, plus a storage battery. A diesel generator is also onboard, in case the power on the sun isn’t enough.
Powering this beast is a 12.8-liter turbodiesel engine with 530-horsepower on tap and 1,917 lb.-ft. of torque. While it won’t be winning any drag races, that’s still plenty to keep the big, heavy motorhome from feeling sluggish on the open road.
Each Brabus Big Boy 1200 is built to order with bespoke elements. But you’ll need a fat bank account to even consider it since the starting price is 1,260,504.20 euros, which doesn’t include VAT. No word yet on if this behemoth will be sold in North America, but we wouldn’t hold our breath in anticipation.
