AMG G-Class, W463
Curator’s note
More than forty years after the first G-Class, the G 63 is still the reference for an off-roader with character: a hand-built twin-turbo V8, three locking differentials and a shape that refuses to change.
The story
The G-Class began in 1979 as a military vehicle and has never stopped being built. The G 63 turns that tough box into the loudest luxury car on the road: a hand-built twin-turbo V8 with side-exit exhausts.
The 2018 redesign kept only a handful of the original parts (the door handles, headlamp washers and spare-wheel cover) but added independent front suspension. The 2024 update brought a 48-volt mild-hybrid system and a new interior.
Character
Dimensions
Each AMG engine is built by one technician who signs a plaque on top of it.
Three locking differentials can be engaged on the move.
The doors still close with the famous bank-vault clack.
Wading depth is 700 mm.
