Mercedes-AMG G 63: the pinnacle of performance meets off-road capability

The legendary Mercedes-AMG G 63 has once again redefined the boundaries of performance and off-road capability in the world of luxury SUVs.

With a formidable V8 engine, innovative suspension technology, and striking design elements, this all-new model solidifies its status not just as a vehicle, but as an icon.

The heart of the Mercedes-AMG G 63 is its robust AMG 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine, producing an impressive 430 kW and a market-leading torque of 850 Nm. Equipped with cutting-edge 48-volt technology, the G 63 enjoys an added boost of 15 kW and 200 Nm for brief spurts, ensuring that this powerful beast can leap from 0 to 100 km/h in a mere 4.4 seconds. For performance enthusiasts, an optional AMG Performance Package can further elevate top speeds to 240 km/h, bringing unparalleled agility to both urban roads and rugged terrains.

The new AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL suspension is at the forefront of this latest model, providing a seamless blend of dynamic handling and ride comfort. By employing active hydraulic roll stabilisation and adaptive damping, the G 63 promises reduced body roll during dynamic driving while also ensuring passengers experience a smooth ride over uneven surfaces. This development not only enhances on-road performance but also significantly boosts off-road capability. With improved axle articulation, drivers are assured maximum traction and stability even on challenging terrains, making the G 63 a true all-terrain champion.

Additionally, the AMG OFFROAD Package PRO adds a more sophisticated layer of off-road proficiency. This suite includes two new driving modes: AMG Traction PRO and AMG Active Balance Control. The former adjusts braking torque for optimal traction on rocky and sandy surfaces, while the latter fine-tunes the vehicle’s roll stiffness based on the terrain, producing enhanced body control and traction for the adventurer at heart.

On the tech front, the G 63 incorporates the advanced MBUX infotainment system for the first time, bringing an intuitive interface to the driver’s cockpit. With five on-road and three off-road driving programmes available, drivers can tailor their driving experience to suit their needs, creating a personalised connection with this luxury titan.

The exterior of the all-new G 63 is unmistakable, featuring the exclusive MANUFAKTUR hyper blue magno paint option and a redesigned AMG-specific bumper that gives it a formidable road presence. High-performance MULTIBEAM LED headlights and 20-inch AMG alloy wheels accentuate its athletic stance. Optional carbon fibre enhancements further amplify its aggressive styling, making it a standout on and off the road.

The standard AMG Performance steering wheel and high-quality nappa leather finishes create a cabin that speaks to both luxury and sportiness. For those desiring opulence, the SUPERIOR Line Interior transforms the space into a deluxe lounge with multi-contour seats offering massage functionality and climate controls.

With a pricing structure starting from R 4 415 916, including a five-year service and maintenance plan, this vehicle serves as an invitation to dominate both the road and rugged landscapes with unmatched finesse.
