The G 63 AMG roars into Mercedes-Benz Kuwait

Requiring a dedicated cell to harness the new AMG SUV beast's earth shattering new engine, state-of-the-art drive technology and expressive design, Mercedes-Benz Kuwait are inviting customers to view the new G 63 AMG now in a specially designed lounge at their showroom in Shuwaikh for a personalised consultation. The G-Class family's flagship G 65 AMG is also expected to rattle windows in Kuwait in the near future.

Visitors will learn very quickly that the evergreen off-road classic has kept its character as it goes high-tech with a raft of future-oriented systems. With new features including spray-controlled petrol direct injection, the ECO start/stop function and generator management, the twin tailpipes on both sides at the rear roar out the hallmark AMG eight-cylinder sound that means so much to the vehicle's many admirers.

The G 63 AMG boasts a massive 544hp AMG 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine with AMG Speedshift PLUS 7G-TRONIC automatic transmission system. 760 Nm of torque accelerates the exclusive SUV icon from zero to 100 km/h in just 5.4 seconds, topping out at a phenomenal 210 km/h (electronically limited).

Driven by the power of 612 stampeding horses and maximum torque reaching 1000 newton metres - an unmatched record in the off-road segment - the even more exclusive G 65 AMG's V12 6.0-litre biturbo engine races from 0-100Km/h in 5.3 seconds, and a top speed of 230km/h (electronically limited).

Speaking from the dedicated G 63 AMG display customer lounge, Michael Ruehle, General Manager, Abdul Rahman Albisher & Zaid Alkazemi Co., said: "Our G-Class has been a force to be reckoned with for over 33 years and has a special place in the hearts of our customers. The latest incarnation evolves the G-Class a mighty step further. More power, more performance, more luxury and safety build on its unmistakable character, and galvanises the Gelandewagen further into a class of its own."

The interior features even more innovations in comparison with the predecessor model. Along with the facelift changes provided as standard, including the new instrument panel and state-of-the-art infotainment and assist systems, the G 63 AMG has an AMG instrument cluster with colour TFT screen, AMG main menu and separate gear display, plus white-lit AMG sills on all doors.

The classy E-SELECT shift lever with the distinctive AMG medallion is a familiar feature from other models such as the SLS AMG. An exclusive on-board environment is created by the designo leather upholstery with ruffled leather door panelling. Options available for an even more stylish interior comprise the AMG carbon trim and the designo Exclusive package.
