Brabus is a name synonymous with Mercedes-Benz, thanks to nearly 40 years of modifying its (and offshoot Smart"s) products. Something that originates from neither brand really stands out in the Brabus range, then, and so it proves with this Tesla Model S, displayed at the Geneva motor show.If any car on the planet didn"t need more power, it"s the Model S, with its self-proclaimed ludicrous performance. So the Brabus take on things has ignored its electric drivetrain completely, instead focussing on a pimped-out exterior and an utterly posh interior.Outside, the highlights are its humongous 21in alloy wheels and some pleasingly subtle carbon additions, its diffuser and front and rear spoilers the highlights.The most exciting stuff happens inside, though; there are ultra plush leather seats, available - to quote Brabus - in "unusual and outrageous" colours, as well as a new centre console unit.
