2023 (73) | Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 4×4²

The Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 4x4² represents the pinnacle of the G-Class lineage - a machine that merges the hand-built performance of AMG’s V8 with uncompromising off-road engineering and extreme visual presence. Beneath its towering stance lies a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 producing 585 bhp at 6,000 rpm and 850 Nm of torque between 2,500 and 3,500 rpm, paired to AMG’s 9-speed Speedshift TCT automatic transmission and permanent all-wheel drive. Despite its size and weight, this powerhouse accelerates from 0-62 mph in 5.0 seconds and is capable of reaching up to 137 mph, delivering supercar levels of performance in a full-off-road chassis.

The 4x4² stands apart from the standard G63 thanks to its portal axles, which lift ground clearance to 351 mm, allow for a 910 mm fording depth, and deliver approach and departure angles of 41.3° and 36.8° respectively. With a kerb weight of around 2,865 kg, its carbon fibre wheel arches, roof components and spare-wheel cover contribute to both its presence and performance credibility. Measuring 4,873 mm long, 1,984 mm wide and 1,975 mm tall, it commands the road with immense authority while retaining the refinement, craftsmanship and luxury that define the modern AMG G-Class interior. With only around 26 examples registered in the UK, the G63 AMG 4x4² is one of the most exclusive and capable performance SUVs ever produced - a final showcase of Mercedes-AMG’s iconic V8 engineering.
