The Mercedes-AMG G63 is the high-performance hero of the iconic G-Class range, blending brutal power with military-grade presence. Originally developed as a rugged off-roader for military use in the late 1970s, the G-Wagen evolved into a luxury status symbol by the 2000s. The AMG version arrived in 2002, offering V8 grunt in a boxy shell that hadn’t changed much in decades.
Under the bonnet of the latest G63 lies a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, pumping out serious power and a signature exhaust roar that’s impossible to ignore. Despite its upright design, it offers surprising on-road dynamics, while retaining legitimate off-road capability. A nine-speed automatic, advanced all-wheel drive and locking diffs keep it sure-footed everywhere.
While globally known as the Mercedes-AMG G63, Aussies have embraced it as the ultimate blend of opulence and aggression. It’s popular among celebrities, adventurers and those wanting something truly unique on Aussie roads.
The line-up currently starts at $368,400 for the G-Class G63 (base) and ranges through to $413,561 for the range-topping G-Class G63 Grand Edition.
