The Mercedes-AMG G-Class underpins its unique position among performance off-road vehicles.
The luxury high-performance SUV is available at Nasser Bin Khaled Automobiles, the authorised general distributor of Mercedes Benz and Mercedes-AMG in Qatar, in its showroom on Salwa Road.
Proven to be powerful: the AMG 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine
The AMG 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine generates 430 kW (585 hp), and delivers a maximum torque of 850 Nm. It absolves a sprint from zero to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds. This dynamic performance is maintained up to the limited maximum speed of 220 km/h, or 240 km/h with the AMG Driver‘s package.
The two turbochargers are not positioned on the outside of the cylinder banks but inside the cylinder “V”. A compact engine design, spontaneous response of the turbochargers, and low exhaust emissions thanks to optimal airflow to the near-engine catalysts. The eight-cylinder delivers its power with muscular torque in all engine speed ranges, combined with maximum efficiency for low fuel consumption and emission figures.
AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9G transmission with shorter shift times
The AMG SPEEDSHIFT TCT 9G transmission has a model-specific software application to achieve very short shift times. The multiple downshift function allows more spontaneous bursts of speed, while the double-declutching function in the “Sport” and “Sport Plus” transmission modes makes for an even more emotional driving experience. Defined engine manipulation makes for even faster gear changes.
“Manual” mode can be selected using a separate switch. The gear changes are based on the selected transmission mode, and the driver can now change gears using the paddles on the steering wheel. Moreover, the transmission stays in the selected gear and does not automatically shift up when the engine speed reaches the limit.
With adaptive adjustable damping: AMG RIDE CONTROL suspension
The Mercedes-AMG G class performs even better when off-road, and on the road, it is more dynamic and comfortable. The agile driving impression is substantially due to the suspension system, which has been completely redesigned by Mercedes-AMG and features coil springs all-round. The front axle has an independent, double wishbone suspension; a rigid axle with a five-link suspension is used at the rear.
The AMG RIDE CONTROL suspension with adaptive adjustable damping is standard equipment. This fully automatic, electronically controlled system adjusts the damping at each wheel to the current requirements. This improves driving safety and ride comfort.
Via a switch on the centre console, the driver can choose between three different sets of damping characteristics, namely “Comfort”, “Sport” and “Sport+”, and thus individually influence the driving experience from very comfortable to taut and sporty.
Characteristics at the touch of a finger: AMG DYNAMIC SELECT
In the Mercedes-AMG G-Class, the driving characteristics can be individualised at the touch of a finger with five on-road and three off-road driving modes. With the five DYNAMIC SELECT on-road modes “Slippery”, “Comfort”, “Sport”, “Sport+” and “Individual”, the characteristics range from efficient and comfortable to very sporty.
Three off-road modes – “Sand”, “Trail” and “Rock” – are available when driving off the beaten track. These are accessed using the switch in the centre console for activation of the central differential lock, and can then be selected with the DYNAMIC SELECT rocker switch.
Sporty and distinctive: the exterior design
Unmistakable design features give the Mercedes-AMG G Class its unique appearance: the boxy silhouette, the proud bonnet, external door hinges, round headlamps, mounted direction indicators, robust door handles, muscular protective strips, the exposed spare wheel on the rear door with stainless steel cover and three-dimensional Mercedes star.
Exterior highlights
. The elegantly integrated “V8 Biturbo” lettering on the vehicle flanks is a visible sign of the essence at the heart of every AMG. The AMG-specific radiator grille impresses with vertical louvres and a central star in high-gloss chrome. As such, the Mercedes-AMG G 63 differs significantly as the dynamic character of the vehicle is brought to the fore.
The AMG Performance exhaust system ensures an even more emotional engine sound in the interior at the push of a button. From typical AMG to restrained, the sound of the AMG Performance exhaust system fully adapts to the currently selected drive program by means of three variably adjustable exhaust gas flaps. The driver can also change the sound characteristics at the press of a button.
The AMG High-Performance Braking System has large, internally ventilated, and perforated brake disks which provide for excellent deceleration. Precise controllability and low response times ensure optimum safety on and off the road. The electric parking brake is integrated into the rear axle caliper and can be activated and released at the press of a button.
With the AMG Night package, selected exterior elements are finished in high-gloss black. As such – depending on the selected paint colour – this results in either strong contrasts or flowing transitions. Exciting touches or confident understatement: in both cases, you are demonstrating your sense of individual, dynamic design.
Interior highlights
The modern interior echoes the specific exterior features. The Exclusive interior provides something special for very discerning customers. Carefully selected combinations meet the highest standards of quality. The individual, high-quality appointments include Nappa leather, the leather-covered dashboard, exclusive colour variations, and coordinated contrasting topstitching.
The shape of the round headlamps is reflected in the side air vents and that of the indicators in the tweeters on the dashboard.
The interior offers you more space than ever before and the best conditions for enjoying the AMG Driving Performance with all the senses. The two 12.3-inch displays visually blend into a single unit beneath a shared glass cover. The driver is able to choose from three different views – “Classic”, “Sporty” and “Progressive” – and access the required information individually.
The AMG instrument cluster offers an exciting AMG design and valuable information for sporty drivers. The AMG main menu, including the RACE TIMER and AMG start-up screen, appears in high resolution and in colour on the central multifunction display.
The AMG Stainless Steel Door Sill Panels with “AMG” lettering are a further sporty feature and enhance the perceived value of the interior. At the same time, they protect the door area against scratches.
The vehicle is equipped with AMG-specific IWC-design Analogue Clock. The numbers are in the form of individually cut applications, underscoring the exclusive IWC design of the AMG-specific analogue clock. Both the numbers and the needles are made of fine metal.
