Following the premiere of the Brabus Shadow 800 at boot D\u00fcsseldorf 2018 this year, a new product was shown there – the Brabus Shadow 500. Let’s see what it is.<\/p>\n
Today, cooperation between motorists and “boatmen” in the creation of original samples of marine technology is observed in different brands. So in the Brabus Shadow 500 model, the latest automotive technologies from the tuning studio Brabus (Germany) and shipbuilding from Axopar (Finland) were combined. Following the accepted doctrine, Brabus Marine (a division of Brabus) limited its involvement to exclusive interior design and increased power of the new product.<\/p>\n
I’ll clarify right away: if the Axopar 37 was the prototype of the Brabus Shadow 800, then the Brabus Shadow 500 on the stand is a tuned Axopar 28 T-Top, a well-known boat that has been tested in tests and has received many awards. Therefore, here I will mainly touch on the interior and running differences of the premiere model.<\/p>\n
Introducing the boat, Axopar CEO Jan-Erik Vitaala said that it belongs to the premium segment of the brand. And the first thing that distinguished the model with a rigid awning on massive pillars were the colors: the signature dark gray Gunmetal Gray of the hull, applied with a fair amount of manual labor, and the red Brabus Red upholstery of the seats and sofa in the bow cockpit made of water-resistant Silvertex material. The cool stitching of the seats is impressive: at the Brabus production site in the town of Bottrop (50 km from Dusseldorf), where we were taken from the exhibition, we saw those smart machines that are able to sew surfaces of any complexity.<\/p>\n
The bow cockpit, with its high bulwarks, soft backrests and full body pillows, is still a transformer, convenient for lunch at a removable table and for sunbathing. The latrine compartment at the front of the steering console has received a number of nice details, such as the Corian washbasin surface, oak trim and mirror.<\/p>\n

Such a latrine on models of this type (day boat) and length is not often found<\/p>\n
The steering console has been fitted with a luxurious carbon fiber dashboard, which emphasizes the high-tech look of the boat. A steering wheel with push-button control of transom plates (synchronously and separately), bow steering wheel, music, etc. began to strongly resemble an intelligent car steering wheel. By default, the boat is equipped with a Garmin GPSMAP 8412 (12 \u2033) touch chartplotter, although the show model had two monitors. Options include the Garmin Radar 18HD and the Scout Sea-Hub with WiFi \/ 3G \/ USB.<\/p>\n
