MERCEDES-AMG has revealed pricing for its all-new G63, with a sticker price of almost a quarter of a million dollars.

Australians will be able to purchase the G63 from August next year, which is priced at $247,700

To the untrained eye, the ‘new’ Mercedes-Benz AMG G63, might look just like the last. It retains the distinctive profile of the previous generation; a 5-seat, off-road dominating wagon with an interior like a penthouse suite, and soundtrack courtesy of AMG.

The new G63 hosts a smaller, 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, with 430kW and 850Nm, an increase in power from the old 5.5-litre unit’s 400kW and 760Nm.

Fuel consumption is also improved, down from 13.8L/100km to 13.2L/100km, and the old seven-speed automatic gearbox is also out – a new 9-speed unit replacing it, sending power through the rear-biased AWD system that hosts three locking-differentials.

The front- and rear-end receive a new grill and bumper style, while 21-inch alloy-wheels from AMG come as standard.

The headlights are also upgraded to LED units with Mercedes’ multibeam technology that’ll shut off isolated sections of the headlight, so as not to blind oncoming motorists.

Tech upgrades include active parking assist, and a 360 degree camera.
