The Mercedes-AMG G 63 is the madcap of the automotive world. How else would you describe a boxy 4x4 ladder frame chassis SUV with not one, not two, but three differential locks and one that also runs on performance tyres to complement a fire breathing engine? It's a marriage of very different worlds that somehow works.
The 4.0-litre V8 turbo-petrol engine is characterful as ever and a new launch control function enables wicked starts. 2024’s update also brings in a trick suspension that significantly enhances handling and ride comfort. Even so, the G 63 is not the SUV to break lap records in.
The G 63 is not the roomiest or plushest SUV around either but makes a statement like few other SUVs can. The latest round of price hikes have made it unjustifiably expensive but you’d still want one.
