LEONINE Studios’ i&u Studios is working with German luxury automotive brand Brabus on the factual series Brabus: One Second Wow, set to land on Prime Video in the spring.
Brabus is known for “supercars,” refining luxury car brands across engine tuning, exterior upgrades, internal customization and more.
Brabus: One Second Wow, across six episodes, promises to merge the aesthetics of a “corporate documentary” and the narrative style of reality formats. It lands on Prime Video in Germany in the spring of 2026.
The series will focus on Brabus CEO Constantin Buschmann as he leads this family business into the future. Several clients of the high-profile brand also appear.
Christian Meinberger, managing director of i&u Studios and series producer, commented, “With Brabus: One Second Wow, we are opening the doors to one of the most fascinating German luxury brands and the people behind it for the first time—authentically, emotionally, and with outstanding visual power. We are particularly proud of the hybrid narrative style we are establishing with this series. This docuseries is a groundbreaking format that combines the depth of a brand-driven documentary series with the immediacy and lightness of a personality-driven lifestyle series—including rare insights into the private lives of the people behind Brabus. Never before has an established and successful German legacy brand with international appeal granted such comprehensive access. The world of the family-owned company Brabus, with its fascinating products, strong personalities, and five decades of international success, has everything it takes to inspire a wide audience. The collaboration on this series marks the beginning of a long-term partnership along the vast LEONINE Studios value chain.”
Buschmann added, “‘The title of the series is also the mission of Brabus, which is precisely why it couldn’t be called anything else. Following the fascinating development of our brand on social media in recent years, for which I am very grateful, we are now taking the next step to take our community, as well as fans of the automotive and design world, with us on our journey—honestly and unfiltered. We work as a team every day to further develop our brand for the future, and no two days are the same. Whether in Bottrop, Dubai, or Beverly Hills, whether through highs or lows, whether by boat, motorcycle, or car—with this series, we are opening our doors wider than ever before and inviting everyone to join us. How does the company work? Who is behind the brand? What are the challenges—both business and personal? The series is dedicated to my father, to whom I owe everything. Mili and I would also like to thank everyone who made this project and this fascinating journey possible.”
