The APXGP Edition is a limited edition Mercedes-AMG GT dedicated to the film “F1” which will premiere in June. The main character in the film is Sonny Hayes (Brad Pitt) who mentors rookie prodigy Joshua “Noah” Pearce, a driver for the Apex Grand Prix team (APXGP).

The APXGP Edition is finished in matt black with contrasting gold details such as the gold edge of the darkened radiator grille and the gold lines running the length of the doors. The rear half of the body features a black and dark grey pattern.

The same theme continues inside the vehicle. The AMG Performance seats are stitched with gold thread, while gold details are also visible on the steering wheel, instrument panel, air vents and center console. For a complete driving experience, there is a Burmester 3D sound system with 15 speakers, ambient lighting and “Limited Edition 1 of 52” plates that emphasize the car’s uniqueness.

When it comes to the powertrain, the APXGP Edition is powered by a 4.0-L twin-turbo V8 engine with 577 hp (430 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. The same engine powers the GT 63 4Matic+, which means it accelerates to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.4 seconds with a top speed of 311 km/h (193).

Mercedes has lent several of its cars for the purpose of the film, in which many Formula 1 drivers such as Lewis Hamilton, Fernando Alonso, Sergio Perez, Lando Norris, etc. will appear. Also, all the Formula 1 teams will appear in this film.

The Brabus XL 800 is another outstanding creation from the German tuner based on the popular G-Class, the Mercedes-AMG G63. This SUV, capable of overcoming even the most difficult terrain, comes with a number of improvements and much more power.

The Brabus XL 800 has a ground clearance of 470 mm, which is 119 mm more than the Mercedes-AMG G63 4×4², thanks to a new suspension with portal axles, a tuned front axle, a special version of Brabus’ RideControl shock absorbers and springs. It is equipped with a Widestar carbon fiber bodykit that includes wide fenders with integrated ventilation openings, a hood, sports bumpers, a front apron, side-mounted exhaust pipes, a rear wing, retractable side steps, and additional LED lights on the roof. It sits on a new set of 22-inch Brabus Monoblock Z/HD forged wheels wrapped in Pirelli Scorpion all-terrain tires.

The interior features quilted gray leather, a Dinamica headliner, and plenty of carbon fiber accents. The headliner features gauges and additional screens for rear passengers.

When it comes to the powertrain, the Mercedes-AMG G63 is powered by a 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine with 585 hp (430 kW) and 850 Nm of torque. The same engine, with the upgrade, now develops 800 hp and 1,000 Nm of torque, which is enough for a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 210 km/h.
