The AMG G 63 Grand Edition celebrates “the success story of the G 63”.
The Grand Edition features aesthetic rather than mechanical changes, centred on Manufaktur night black magno (Mercedes-speak for matte) paintwork paired with “distinctive” Kalahari gold magno exterior and interior details. As the ‘regular’ AMG G 63 is rarely criticised for lacking power, revisions to the appearance are probably sufficient.
The gold-coloured design elements have been chosen to highlight the direct lineage of the modern Mercedes-AMG G 63 back to the first G model released in 1979, according to Mercedes-AMG. This is the first time the G-Class is available from the factory with gold star and AMG logo on the grille.
