February 23, 2015 – Mercedes-Benz has introduced a new addition to the extreme G-Class model family: the G63 AMG 6×6 has a model brother in the form of the G500 4×4².
The near-production concept car is a new highlight in the history of the G-Class and blends all the advantages of the model series. The production models of the G-Class supply the foundations in the form of the body and ladder-type frame, which compensate for the increased performance of the G500 4×4² without any problem and also without any type of reinforcements.
The G63 AMG 6×6 donates an amended version of the ruggedly determined permanent all-wheel-drive powertrain with portal axles. The engine compartment houses a completely new V8 engine with a displacement of four litres, direct injection and biturbocharging, with power peaking at 422 horsepower. Also new is the chassis with dual spring/damper struts and adjustable damping.
The Mercedes-Benz G500 4×4² will make first official appearance at the Geneva Motor Show 2015 in March.
