2019 Mercedes-AMG G63 Goes Off-Roading with 577 HP

​

Like the standard Mercedes-Benz G-Class, the Mercedes-AMG G63 has undergone the greatest change in its history.

Ready to perform on and off the road, the 2019 Mercedes-AMG G63 is powered by a 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine generating 577 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque. Although horsepower is just a slight upgrade compared to its predecessor’s 5.5-liter biturbo V8 with 563 hp, torque is a noticeable increase from 561 lb-ft. The luxury, high-performance SUV has a rear-biased, all-wheel-drive system (40:60) with three differential locks, fast-shifting nine-speed automatic transmission, double wishbone independent front suspension, and adaptive adjustable damping. All that performance results in a zero-to-60 mph time of 4.4 seconds, which is 0.9 seconds faster than the previous model. Maximum speed is limited to 137 mph, but it can be increased to 149 mph with the AMG Driver’s Package.
