LIVE – Mercedes-Benz Launches New G63 AMG at ₹2.19 Crore
The new AMG G 63 was launched today by Mr. Michael Jopp, Vice President – Sales & Marketing – Mercedes-Benz India. With the launch of the new AMG G 63, the G-Class from Mercedes-Benz undergoes the biggest change in its history. The G 63 is the original among the performance off-roaders and is the yardstick for all competitors and this is true for the new generation as well. The new AMG G 63 can do everything better than the preceding models, while retaining its core virtues. The new Mercedes-AMG G 63 is priced starting INR 2.19 crore ex-showroom Pan India.
Powered by a 4.0-litre V8 bi-turbo engine that generates an astonishing 430 kW (585 hp) of power, helps it attain 100 km/h from standstill in a mere 4.5 seconds. The AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9G transmissions used in the G 63 has a model-specific software application to achieve very short shift times.
The new AMG G 63 underpins its unique position among performance off-road vehicles with the powerful drive system, the newly developed AMG RIDE CONTROL suspension, the AMG-specific transmission modes and a torsionally rigid body shell mounted on a strong ladder-type chassis. The new bodyshell, mounted on a high-strength ladder-type frame, comes with increased torsional rigidity via a new material mix yet the SUV is 65 kgs lighter.
Mr. Michael Jopp, Vice President, Sales & Marketing, Mercedes-Benz India said, “Around the world, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class is acknowledged as the benchmark amongst luxury off-road vehicles. Today, we offer fans of the AMG brand as well as customers in India the latest iteration of this cult luxury off-roader, the Mercedes-AMG G 63. The AMG G 63 has now reached a completely new dimension in terms of technology with the 4.0 litre V8 biturbo engine, combined with its off-road characteristics, its agility and vehicle dynamics. The extreme rock-climbing abilities combined with sports car performance, class leading styling and a high-tech cabin makes the new Mercedes-AMG G 63 yet another legend in the making.”
