2013 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG

New photos have emerged which show off the the newly redesigned twin-turbocharged V-8 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG. Featuring 544 horsepower and 560 pound-feet of torque, the power is sent through the AMG Speedshift Plus 7G Tronic automatic transmission and a permanent all-wheel drive system with front, center and rear locking differentials. Aesthetic changes come in the form of a newly designed grill with chrome accents over black mesh that helps cool the inner workings of the V-8. The bumper has also been completely reimagined – thicker and more aggressive looking, while the G63 utilizes the same LED running lights as the 2013 G550. While initial pricing hasn’t been made available, if past price points hold true then the G63 AMG will cost upwards of $125,000 USD.
