Mercedes-AMG GLS 63 with 838 HP

Mercedes-AMG GLS 63 is the largest SUV, but also one of the most powerful cars of the German manufacturer. However, for those who want more, Mansory has prepared a special equipment kit that brings new design solutions but also more horsepower.

The standard Mercedes-AMG GLS 63 is powered by a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 engine with 603 hp (443 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque. However, thanks to a software upgrade, the SUV delivers 710 hp (522 kW) and 737 lb-ft (1,000 Nm), and with an improved turbocharger, a sports exhaust system, a new downpipe and a new air filter, the output increases to 838 hp (616 kW) and 811 lb -ft (1,100 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via a nine-speed automatic transmission.

The Mansory equipment kit includes a carbon body, a carbon hood, a front lip spoiler, two different models of the rear diffuser, fender extensions, a roof spoiler, and a black or chrome bumper.

The luxurious interior of the standard three-row GLS 63 is decorated with wooden and chrome accessories, as well as seats covered in soft leather, which can also be seen on the dashboard and door panels. However, Mansory offers customization of the interior of the car, with leather and velour floor mats and trunk mats included.

2023 Mercedes-AMG C63

After more than a year of development and testing, in two days Mercedes-AMG will present the latest generation of the C-Class, the C63, and the announcement was made with teaser photos.

The car is covered in light camouflage that covers some important places that Mercedes-AMG wants to keep as a surprise until the official premiere. It has already been announced that the new C63 will be powered by a 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo engine combined with a rear electric motor that will deliver a total of over 600 hp (441 kW). Power will be sent to all wheels via a 9-speed automatic transmission. It will hit 62 mph in 3.5 seconds which is faster than the current BMW.

This means that Mercedes-AMG has definitely given up on the V8 engine when it comes to the C63. Also, Mercedes-AMG will offer the C-Class as a station wagon. The car will be equipped with a set of 19-inch wheels with standard cast-iron brakes behind, a new rear diffuser, a 61 kWh battery, quad exhaust outlets, panamericana grille, full-width lower intakes and will use the standard C-class’s body.

The car was on display at the recent Goodwood Festival of Speed, but even then it was covered in light camouflage.
