2019 Mercedes-Benz G-Class AMG G 63

The 2019 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG is a high-performance luxury SUV that represents one of the most dramatic updates in the long history of the G-Class. For 2019, Mercedes-AMG completely redesigned the G-Class while preserving its iconic boxy silhouette, rugged character, and off-road capability — a design that dates back to the original military-derived G-Wagen. The G63 stands out with its handcrafted 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8, producing 577 hp and 627 lb-ft of torque, paired with a quick-shifting 9-speed automatic transmission and rear-biased AMG 4MATIC all-wheel drive. This potent powertrain enables the nearly three-ton SUV to sprint from 0–60 mph in around 4.4 seconds and reach a top speed that can be increased to 149 mph with the optional AMG Driver’s Package, all while retaining three locking differentials and robust suspension for genuine off-road capability.

Inside, the 2019 G63 blends traditional toughness with modern luxury and technology. The cabin gained significantly more refinement and space compared with earlier generations, featuring high-quality materials, a broad, contemporary dashboard dominated by large infotainment screens, and premium comfort options like heated/ventilated seats and exclusive trim packages. While its fuel economy is modest — typical of a powerful V8 SUV — its combination of performance, heritage, and upscale design makes the G63 a standout in the luxury SUV segment, appealing to both lifestyle buyers and driving enthusiasts who want a vehicle that’s as capable on city streets as it is on rugged terrain
