Another upgraded Mercedes came out of the workshop of American tuner Pit26. This time it’s a Mercedes G63 with 577 HP, but as a pickup.

To carry out the SUV’s transformation, engineers at Pit26 cut the SUV in half behind the rear seats, lengthened the chassis and added cargo space, as well as portal axles to raise the ride height by 150mm. They installed Bilstein shock absorbers and springs and 18-inch wheels with Toyo off-road tires located inside new wider arches.

In order to more safely overcome all obstacles on the road, steps, front bumper and undercarriage protection were installed for the purpose. There is also a winch in case the pickup gets stuck, and the example in the photos also has roof racks and additional lights. The car has a carrier for two bicycles, which can also be used to store various tools, axes, shovels and chainsaws. Also, there is an adapter for setting up a mini tent.

When it comes to the powertrain, nothing has changed. The Mercedes G63 is still powered by a 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine with 577 hp (424 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque. It reaches 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, and power is sent to all wheels via an AMG speedshift TCT 9G-TRONIC automatic transmission.

It is certain that this upgraded Mercedes AMG G63 will find its way to its owner who will have to pay $385,000.
