India Today|January 13, 2025

DESIRE ON WHEELS

MERCEDES-AMG G 63

Power 577 hp

Torque 850 NM

Acceleration 0-100 kmph: 4.5 seconds

Engine type 4.0 Litre V8

Top speed 220 kmph

Transmission Automatic 9-gears, manual override/paddle shift

Price ₹3.6 crore ++

Is it really a good idea to flex one's four-litre twin-turbo, V8 engine, pushing out 587 bhp of power and 850 nm of torque in Mumbai's narrow, often crumbling streets? I guess not. But when you're behind the wheels of the iconic Geländewagen aka the 'G-wagon' --which wields pop culture and social media clout like no other SUV-it's all good.
