AMG G 63 SUV
Two of the most renowned legacies of handcraftsmanship unite in the G 63: The globe-tested endurance of the G-Class, and the track-proven performance of AMG. For 2019, the G 63 resets the clock, and every standard, with a new body, chassis and cabin.
A race that knows no finish line.
In an old mill in 1967, two automotive engineers with a passion for motorsports began turning Mercedes-Benz sedans into winning racecars. Today, as the performance division of Mercedes-Benz, AMG continues to create victory on the track and desire on the streets of the world. Every Mercedes-AMG vehicle is the product of craftsmen, designers and engineers who live to test limits, and for a singular goal: Driving Performance.
Born to perform, developed to outperform.
A Mercedes-AMG engine only starts with the state of the art. From there, everything from fuel pressure to exhaust routing is developed to quicken, heighten and intensify its response, and yours. Developed for AMG's racecars, patented NANOSLIDE cylinder walls cut friction, raising endurance and power.
Twin-turbo power. Crafted by a single pair of hands.
With a duet of twin-scroll turbos nested between the cylinder heads, the handcrafted 577-hp V8 of the G 63 is the direct result of AMG's history of racing success. A closed-deck crankcase, sodium-filled valves and dynamic engine mounts deliver pure power with precision. **
A torrent of torque, always on tap.
A paddle-shifted 9-speed transmission puts a 627-lb-ft mountain of torque at your feet, and your fingertips. The new AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT transmission offers multiple modes and quickened shifts. It can also downshift multiple gears, for more immediate response.
Serious sidepipes, with a playful side.
From the startup growl to the unleashing of revs, the AMG exhaust is a symphony of high performance. Genuine sidepipes exit via four polished chrome outlets directly in front of each rear wheel. Internal flaps let you switch from subtle to assertive on demand.
Aptitude at any altitude.
While its engine is born on the track, its permanent 4-wheel drive is at home far from the beaten track. With a 60:40 rear bias and three lockable differentials, it's engineered to match on-road precision with go-anywhere prowess. [3]
Tuned on the track, and far from it.
For the first time, the G 63 features an indepedent front suspension. Racing-style double wishbones improve tire contact, while a strut-tower brace enhances rigidity. The AMG-specific damping is also driver-adjustable. Big, beefy 4-wheel disc brakes are engineered to rein in the G 63's ample power.
A driving mode for every mood.
AMG DYNAMIC SELECT lets you alter the throttle mapping, engine-mount stiffness, shifting behavior, damping rate, ESP intervention and more. A console paddle lets you select a range of preset modes, from Comfort to Sport+. There's also an Individual mode you can configure to your own liking.
On top of an ever-changing world.
The view has never been so commanding. Contoured front seats present an all-new dash with the signature G-Class differential lock controls and grab handle. The available reconfigurable digital instrument panel unites twin 12.3-inch screens and exclusive AMG readouts. And handcrafted materials abound.
Style that never goes out of style.
Dozens of paint colors include gloss and matte options. Five wheel designs from 20 to 22 inches complement the standard chrome body accents or the deep black contrast of the AMG Night Package. It's all underscored by AMG flares and bumpers, an integrated front underguard, and functional running boards. [4]
Dramatically new, entirely true to form.
The vertical chrome bars of the AMG grille evoke the rich racing heritage of Mercedes-AMG. Large intakes feed vital air to the running gear. And a new low-profile brush guard, available in matte silver or black, is exclusive to the AMG G 63.
The world at your fingertips, and your thumbs.
The new AMG Performance steering wheel features intuitive Touch Control Buttons and an inset 12 o'clock band. Its contoured rim can be hand-stitched in Nappa leather or accented with grippy DINAMICA microsuede, genuine carbon fiber, or black piano lacquer.
