Step inside AMG, the performance racing division of Mercedes-Benz, and experience the legendary philosophy of One Man, One Engine firsthand.
With reduced displacement, numerous innovations and twin turbochargers, the advanced 5.5-liter V-8 of the G63 AMG outputs a thunderous 536 hp @ 5,250-5,750 rpm and 560 lb-ft of torque. While it bears the signature of the single technician who lovingly assembled it by hand, it's a high-tech powerhouse. Its twin turbochargers spin up to 185,000 rpm to dramatically boost low-end torque. High-pressure Direct Injection microscopically fine-tunes the fuel spray while rapid-multispark ignition fires up to four times in a millisecond. Its 32 valves are driven by dual overhead camshafts that can precisely vary their timing by up to 40 degrees. Along with substantially improved efficiency and emissions, plus the everyday smoothness for which AMG engines are renowned, it also delivers 60 mph in a breathtaking 5.3 seconds.
The G63 AMG emits its signature V-8 sound via a true dual exhaust system with genuine sidepipes. Twin outlets with polished chrome finishers ahead of each rear wheel arch deliver a muscular, throaty growl under acceleration while offering a more mellow baritone during highway cruising. The AMG sport exhaust is meticulously tuned to heighten the driver's emotional inspiration during revs, gear changes and full-throttle acceleration, yet deliver comfortable subtlety under relaxed cruising. Advanced catalysts add an eco-friendly edge to its performance prowess.
The 7-speed AMG SPEEDSHIFT transmission features exclusive AMG calibration and features to allow multiple degrees of driver involvement and response. Three driving modes can be selected via a console-mounted button: "Controlled Efficiency" features a fuel-saving ECO Start/Stop function. "Sport" mode raises the shift points to higher rpm. And a paddle-shifted "Manual" mode allows direct sequential gear selection. In any mode, downshifts are rev-matched with a brief "blip" of the throttle between gearchanges, for smoother engagement and more immediate power delivery upon acceleration.
Perhaps the most enticing control in the G63 is the AMG E-SELECT selector lever with its embossed AMG crest and distinctive shape. Its electronic design allows the driver to shift directly between R, N and D with a gentle nudge, with each command carried out electronically. A brief tap of the "P" button is sufficient to activate the parking lock.
A pair of aluminum paddles strategically positioned behind the upper steering-wheel spokes allows you to manually upshift and downshift the 7-speed automatic transmission with just a flick of your fingers.
A fuel-saving ECO Start/Stop system automatically shuts off the engine at stoplights and other idle situations. As soon as the driver lifts off the brake, the engine instantly restarts, for immediate acceleration response. The ECO Start/Stop system can also be shut off by the driver at any time.
The G-Class features all-wheel drive equipped with a 2-speed transfer case and an extraordinary three locking differentials, all to help drivers tackle a variety of terrains and conditions. With its 7-speed automatic transmission and two transfer-case ranges, the G63 AMG offers the widest span of gear ratios of any SUV. So whether your crawling down a steep hill or cruising on the highway, there's an optimum gear for the situation. AMG-specific modifications strengthen the drivetrain to manage the extreme torque while delivering a quieter, smoother driving experience. (Disclaimer)
For optimum traction, even in slippery conditions, the G-Class 4-wheel drive system incorporates our advanced 4-wheel Electronic Traction System. 4-ETS can help get you going even if three wheels lose their grip. Sensors at each wheel monitor traction based on wheel speeds. If one or more wheels start to slip, 4-ETS individually brakes the slipping wheels to maintain the flow of torque to the wheels with grip. Even if only one wheel has grip, 4-ETS can help get you going and stay in control. (Disclaimer)
As you make your way off-road, three sequentially lockable differentials offer increasingly masterful capability. Each differential can be locked (center, rear, then front) via a set of buttons on the dash, to help maintain the ideal balance of torque and traction for the situation.
Prodigious off-roading skills are the signature of the G63 AMG. It can climb an 80% grade (that's 36 degrees of incline), and handle a 54% lateral slope (24 degrees of sideways tilt). Its suspension is engineered for the most rugged conditions, with rigid front and rear axles, coil springs, gas-pressurized shock absorbers, and more than 8 inches of wheel travel. With 8 inches of ground clearance and short front and rear overhangs, the G63 AMG also offers steep approach and departure angles. (Disclaimer)
AMG high-performance brakes shed both speed and heat with remarkable power, thanks to perforated and internally ventilated discs at all four wheels. Front discs measure 14.8 inches and are grasped by Red-painted 6-piston fixed-type calipers. Rear brakes are 13.0 inches in diameter and feature Red-painted single-piston sliding calipers. (Disclaimer)
Enjoy the strong, controlled stopping power of dual-circuit power-assisted 4-wheel disc brakes, backed by an Antilock Braking System (ABS). When all three differentials are unlocked, the Antilock Braking System (ABS) senses impending wheel lockup under heavy braking and pumps the front brakes individually or the rear brakes together. This intelligent system can pump the brakes as needed up to 30 times per second, to prevent lockup and preserve the driver's steering ability. (Disclaimer)
Brake Assist senses emergency braking via the speed at which the driver presses the brake pedal and immediately applies maximum available power boost. Brake Assist can potentially reduce the overall stopping distance by eliminating the delay caused by a common human tendency not to brake hard enough, soon enough. Letting up on the brake pedal releases Brake Assist. (Disclaimer)
This safety breakthrough first introduced by Mercedes-Benz continually monitors your driving inputs and the vehicle's motion to help keep it going in your intended direction, especially in corners and during evasive maneuvers. If it detects wheelspin, severe understeer (plowing), or oversteer (fishtailing), ESP can brake individual wheels and reduce engine power to help bring the vehicle under control. (Disclaimer)
Powerful 4-wheel disc brakes feature a number of advances. If you lift off the accelerator quickly, Predictive Brake Priming sets the pads closer to the discs for more immediate response when you apply the brakes. In the rain, Automatic Brake Drying periodically applies the brakes just enough to sweep water build-up from the discs. During uphill starts, Hill-Start Assist helps prevent unwanted rollback. And a HOLD feature can make long red lights or stopped traffic a little easier. (Disclaimer)
With a generous 7,000-lbs towing capacity when outfitted with an approved aftermarket hitch, the G-Class pulls a trailer with confidence. Whenever you're towing, standard Trailer Stability Assist acts decisively to help rein in trailer sway by strategically applying the front brakes of the G-Class, helping you keep your worries behind you. (Disclaimer)
For rugged off-road capability with confident on-road performance, the G63 AMG suspension consists of rigid front and rear axles with longitudinal and transverse links, coil springs, gas-pressurized shock absorbers and a front stabilizer bar. AMG calibration of the dampers and spring rates delivers enhanced dynamic response. Both the suspension's vertical wheel travel and the vehicle's ground clearance exceed 8 inches.
Originally developed to excel in military, municipal as well as civilian duty, the unmistakably ageless design of the G-Class is a pure reflection of the character within. For example, its flat-glass windows were designed to make emergency replacement easier in the most remote areas of the world. Even with its freshly updated details, it remains uncomplicated, uncompromised and functional, with a shape and size that maximize interior space while minimizing overhangs for better maneuverability.
The visible muscle of the G63 AMG offers ample evidence of its all-around capability. Large, functional mesh intakes in its AMG-design front bumper feed vital air to the engine, intercoolers, and cooling systems for the engine and transmission oil. A matte-chrome strip underscores the air dam, highlights the LED Daytime Running Lamps, and draws the eye around to the widened front fenders and AMG side sills. At the rear, the AMG rear bumper is also aggressively sculpted.
Polished chrome and stainless steel highlight the enduring quality of the G-Class. Up front, a chrome front grille guard frames the AMG-exclusive double-crossbar grille and headlamps. Rugged stainless-steel running boards ease your entry. And the rear-mounted full-size spare tire is protected by a cover trimmed in polished stainless steel.
Bright white LED Daytime Running Lamps help increase the visibility of your vehicle to oncoming traffic by illuminating front lights whenever the car is switched on. With long life and low energy consumption, the light-emitting diode (LED) lamps also add a distinctive high-tech styling touch.
New LED taillamps provide more brilliant illumination. Long-lasting, attention-getting LEDs are also employed for the brake lamps. Their quicker illumination, compared to conventional bulbs, can offer a driver behind the G-Class added response time.
Rugged yet remarkably lightweight, the standard 20-inch wheels are a fresh take on the signature AMG 5-spoke design, with twin spokes and a high-sheen finish and subtle Titanium Grey pockets.
Optional
Aggressive in size and menacing in appearance, available 20-inch AMG 5-spoke wheels feature five blade-like spokes with a Black satin finish, encircled by a silver perimeter.
Among the many discoveries possible in the G63 AMG is the lost art of a cabin crafted virtually entirely by hand. Abundant luxury, from heated 14-way power front seats to COMAND hard-drive navigation, deliver advanced technology with old-world quality and attention to detail. Exquisite designo leather covers not just the seats but the striking new dash and door inserts. Polished wood and chrome accents let you explore your world in refined ambience, while advanced new technology presents itself with a fresh, modern look and functional elegance.
Put a classic touch of luxury in your hands with a steering wheel accented with hand-polished wood to match the interior of the vehicle and trimmed in supple Premium leather. Multifunction controls put many of the features you use most right under your thumbs, along with providing easy access to the many useful screens of the color display in the gauge cluster and the Bluetooth® hands-free system.
Optional
Hand-polished Burl Walnut wood trim, a no-charge option, graces the console, dash and doors, lending the cockpit a further air of refinement.
Optional
While every G63 AMG comes fully equipped, it does offer numerous options for personalization. Among them, designo wood trim provides an extraordinary degree of handcrafted beauty and workmanship. In addition to the standard deep Piano Black Lacquer, no-charge options includes elegant Champagne White Lacquer or the modern, low-sheen richness of Satin Brown Poplar wood.
Please see your dealer for details.
The G-Class offers standard 6-way air bag protection from dual front air bags, plus side curtain air bags for all four outboard seating positions. (Disclaimer)
In any low-speed maneuver, PARKTRONIC's ultrasonic sensors in the front and rear bumpers detect nearby objects within the system's field of view. Audible signals and illuminated displays in the cabin help you navigate tight spaces with confidence.
This advanced, radar-based cruise control monitors the vehicle ahead and adjusts your speed to help maintain a chosen following distance. It can even bring the car to a halt if it senses stopped traffic, then resume automatically. Should the car ahead slow to a stop suddenly, the PRE-SAFE Brake system can automatically initiate partial braking and issue an audiovisual alarm. If you still haven't applied the brakes within the final milliseconds seconds preceding a calculated impact, it automatically engages full braking power to help reduce the severity of impact. (Disclaimer)
When the vehicle is traveling above approximately 20 mph, this system uses radar technology to sense when a vehicle enters the blind-spot area. Blind Spot Assist then automatically alerts the driver via an illuminated red icon in the appropriate side mirror. The system also gives an audible warning if the driver activates a turn signal while a vehicle is detected in the blind spot. (Disclaimer)
If a collision occurs that results in air-bag or seat-belt ETD activation, the G-Class automatically takes measures to help ensure the safety, and facilitate the rescue, of the occupants. These include shutting off the engine and fuel supply, unlocking all doors, and turning on the hazard flashers and interior lights.
This innovative driver-assistance feature helps you to see directly behind your vehicle when reversing. Shift into Reverse, and a wide-angle camera mounted in the rear displays a live view of what's behind the vehicle on the COMAND screen in the dashboard. Active parking guidelines on the screen help you back into a parking space. (Disclaimer)
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) can automatically detect a substantial loss of tire pressure in any wheel and alert the driver via a warning message in the multifunction display. The advanced TPMS can also display the numeric tire pressure for each mounted wheel.
Bi-Xenon headlamps help deliver greater visibility than halogen headlamps because their brighter, whiter light is much closer to natural daylight.
To help you negotiate tight turns, corner-illuminating front lamps shine toward the inside of the turn. Activated by turning the steering wheel or using the turn signals at low speeds, they're particularly useful in parking structures, suburban neighborhoods or when turning into driveways.
A high-pressure spray of fluid helps remove road spray and dirt from the headlamps, to help keep them at their maximum lighting performance.
Rain-sensing windshield wipers automatically adjust the intermittent wiping frequency based on the amount of rainfall.

The extraordinary craftsmanship of designo leather upholstery offers refinement on par with the vehicle's performance. It's fitted by hand to the seats and door inserts, while precisely stitched leather also covers the steering wheel, door inserts and dashboard, and even encircles the plush carpeted floor mats.
Separate left and right digital temperature controls allow the driver and passenger to enjoy personalized comfort. In addition to fully automatic or manual control of blower speed and airflow distribution, the system includes a dust and pollen filter that helps keep particles as small as 0.0002-inch from entering the cabin. Rear-cabin air vents are also standard.
For fingertip access to some of the vehicle functions you use most often, convenient buttons on the steering wheel let you control the audio volume and selection, send and end calls on your Bluetooth-enabled phone, and scroll through the features of the multifunction display in the instrument cluster.
Efficient, low-intensity LEDs help illuminate the center console, footwells and interior door handles, to help make nighttime driving more convenient and passengers feel more secure.
Intuitive, seat-shaped controls help you and your front passenger find your ideal seating positions with 10-way power adjustment. A memory system for each front seat recalls three stored seat positions with the touch of a button. The driver-seat memory also includes the power steering column and side mirror positions.
Multicontour seats feature triple lumbar supports as well as adjustable side bolsters and shoulder supports, allowing you to custom-tailor your seat to precisely fit your physique.
The rear seats fold down and then flip forward to give you the freedom to increase cargo capacity with great flexibility. A 1/3:2/3 split lets you accommodate longer cargo while still carrying one or two rear passengers. Or fold and tumble both rear seats fully forward for up to 79.5 cubic feet of well-shaped cargo space. (Disclaimer)
Heated and Active Ventilated seats are a luxury you'll soon consider a necessity. Three levels of heating and cooling ventilation are offered. By gently circulating air through perforations in the seat and backrest, Active Ventilated seats help keep you cooler and your clothes dryer during warmer months. On cold or damp days, using both the ventilation and heating features together can circulate the seat heating more quickly, to help keep you warm and dry.
Electrically heated rear seats quickly offer soothing warmth to the outboard rear-cabin passengers. Two levels of warming automatically step down after several minutes to the lowest setting. Timed auto-shutoff means you don't have to remember to turn off the heaters after your rear passengers exit.
The windshield glass is electrically heated, so it can start to clear frost and mist as soon as you start the G63 AMG, even on the coldest day. There's no need to wait for the engine to warm up the standard defroster in the climate control system.
Rain-sensing windshield wipers automatically adjust the intermittent wiper frequency based on the amount of rainfall. An intermittent rear-window wiper is also standard. It also turns on automatic if you shift into Reverse while the front wipers are on.
Side mirrors can be programmed to fold in automatically when you remote-lock the vehicle, helping save space in tight parking areas. The mirrors are also automatically heated to help disperse mist and fog from their lenses, and have been aerodynamically redesigned to help reduce wind noise and to help divert road spray away from the side windows when driving in the rain. Each mirror also integrates an LED turn signal that's more easily seen by a driver in the adjacent lane.
Deep-tinted windows for the rear doors, rear quarters and cargo door afford added privacy and warm-weather comfort to rear-cabin passengers.
Convenient power ports are located in both seating rows and in the cargo area, to help you keep your portable devices charged while on the road.
Three buttons on the rear view mirror can be programmed to operate many types of garage door openers, security gates and other HomeLink-compatible features. (Disclaimer)

Beyond any specific recommendations you receive from your Mercedes-Benz technician, you should check the following items regularly and prior to any long trip:
If applicable to your vehicle's configuration, tire rotation should be performed in accordance with the recommended intervals, or sooner at the first signs of irregular (uneven) tread wear. A tire inspection will help determine the need for a tire rotation which may occur at least once between regular Mercedes-Benz maintenance intervals. Check with your authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealership for specific recommendations.
The first rotation inspection occurring at an authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealership at any time up to 5,000 miles is provided at no charge.*
The required maintenance intervals have been determined based on normal operating conditions. Any severe operating conditions may call for more frequent replacement of items such as interior filters, spark plugs, coolant, tires, etc. Checking these items regularly and bringing your vehicle in for service appointments earlier than required, if necessary, will help keep your Mercedes-Benz in top condition.
* In accordance with or as otherwise recommended by your tire manufacturer's instructions. Rotation applies only to vehicles without staggered-width tires. Vehicles with staggered-width tires require inspection instead of rotation. Tires should be rotated/inspected at least once between each service visit. See your Service Manager for details regarding your vehicle's tires.
Your Mercedes-Benz Maintenance Booklet specifies exactly what services your Mercedes-Benz technician will perform at each routine service visit.
Mercedes-Benz Star Service Pre-Paid Maintenance
A smart decision now. No surprises later.
It's the simple and convenient way to prepay for required services, so you'll know that critical maintenance needs are taken care of right from the start.
Mercedes-Benz Star Service Pre-Paid Maintenance allows you to "lock in" the costs for "required" services before your first service visit or 10,000 miles, whichever comes first. — And saves you money!
Plus, purchasing a Mercedes-Benz Star Service Pre-Paid Maintenance plan does not confine you to only one dealership for your service needs. The plan follows you, so if you require service when you're on the road — or if you relocate — your plan will be honored at any authorized participating Mercedes-Benz dealer.

2009 and newer Maintenance Schedules
You invested in Mercedes-Benz. Now Mercedes-Benz has your back.
All new Mercedes-Benz vehicles are protected by our New Vehicle Limited Warranty, covering defects in material or workmanship for 48-months or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. For added protection, the Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty offers continued peace of mind with prolonged coverage tailored to your needs.
To help ensure that coverage under your warranty right is never affected, it is highly recommended that you bring your Mercedes-Benz to an authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealership for all your service and repair needs, starting with regular maintenance at the intervals outlined in your Maintenance Booklet.
Extended Limited Warranty
The Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty offers additional protection once the original 4-year/50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty expires, with options that add an extra one, two, or three years of protection to best fit your ownership experience - up to 125,000 miles.
And because this Extended Limited Warranty is a product fully backed by Mercedes-Benz, you can have complete confidence that it offers a premium level of coverage when compared to after market alternatives.
Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty offers several term options so you can choose the coverage that best suits your needs. Based on your vehicle model, you may choose to extend your warranty coverage up to 1, 2, or 3 years from the original 48-month/50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty start date - up to either 75,000, 100,000 or 125,000 total miles.
Additionally, Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty coverage may be purchased at any time prior to the expiration of your original New Vehicle Limited Warranty.* Payment options are similarly flexible: you may choose to pre-pay the entire Extended Limited Warranty amount up-front, or include the cost in your monthly financing payments. Your dealer can work with you to help determine the approach that will best fit your needs.
With Extended Limited Warranty there's no complicated paperwork to process, no deductibles and no hassles.
As a Mercedes-Benz Extended Limited Warranty customer, you will enjoy the uncommon level of service and care that can only be found at authorized Mercedes-Benz Dealerships. Mercedes-Benz trained service professionals can help ensure your vehicle is cared for with the superior attention to detail it deserves.

Pre-Owned Limited Warranty
With your Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz comes peace of mind because every vehicle is backed by a comprehensive Pre-Owned Vehicle Limited Warranty.

provides vehicle coverage for another 12 months or up to 100,000 total accumulated miles, whichever comes first. For those Certified Pre-Owned vehicles no longer covered by the New Vehicle Warranty, the Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty takes effect at the time of delivery.
This coverage extends to include most of the major components of engine and powertrain, steering, suspension, brakes (excluding wear of discs and pads), electrical system, climate control system, and more. For specific coverage, please see your Mercedes-Benz Dealer for a copy of the Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty.

*While the vehicle owner may elect to have repairs (collision damage repair or paint work) performed by any automotive body repair establishment or individual, damage or malfunctions caused by body repairs not performed in accordance with Mercedes-Benz specified repair procedures or otherwise not properly performed are not covered by the Mercedes-Benz New Vehicle Limited Warranty and may cause the car to not perform as originally designed in a subsequent collision to the repaired area.
Small Repairs
To own a Mercedes-Benz is to take pride in its timeless design and effortless style. But regardless of the care you take in maintaining the appearance of your vehicle, sometimes damage can´t be avoided. Whether it's a rock chip, a spill, a sharp object piercing the interior, a wheel making contact with the curb, or seasonal hazards like road grime or salt attacking your rims, Mercedes-Benz has the solution.
Your Mercedes-Benz Dealership or Certified Collision Center can offer minor repairs quickly, easily, and cost effectively, often while you wait.
Wheels
Few parts of your vehicle are as readily noticed as the alloy rims. Unfortunately, even the most stunning wheels are susceptible to damage.
If winter road salt or a bump against the curb has left your rims looking less than spectacular, your Mercedes-Benz dealership or Certified Collision Facility has the technology to make the finish look just like new at a fraction of the cost of a new rim. Please note that not all wheel damage can be repaired, depending on severity.
Sticks and Stones
When a stone makes contact with your windshield it can create significant appearance and safety implications, especially if left untreated. To avoid replacing the entire windshield, Mercedes-Benz Dealerships and Certified Collision Centers can fix cracks and stone chips quickly using resins to seal the glass, and polish to take care of pitting.
Keep in mind that this system is only intended to repair minor problems outside of the driver´s field of vision, and is not meant to take care of an issue that has failed a state safety inspection program. Interior Repairs Leather or MB-Tex seating, polished wood trim, aluminum accents, ceiling fabric or carpet - they're all susceptible to daily wear and tear or surface contamination.
Minor scratches, blemishes, and other superficial damage to your vehicle´s interior can be repaired at your Mercedes-Benz Dealership or Certified Collision Facility, with the product expertise needed to determine the best repair tools and materials for the job.
