Exclusive Mercedes-AMG G 63 Edition marks 55 years of AMG

This is only the beginning of the celebration, there is still more to come.

Mercedes-AMG is celebrating 55 years of operations with the launch of its exclusive G 63 Edition 55 that can be ordered now until October this year.

As a model that will not lose anything of its original character in its all-electric future character, it makes a perfect well-wisher due to its long-standing history. The Mercedes-AMG Edition 55 can be had in obsidian black metallic or G manufaktur opalite white bright paint, depending on the customer’s preference.

The colours on both sides of the vehicle are coordinated with the AMG emblem and the suggested AMG rhombus. It rides on a set of 22″ AMG forged wheels in cross-spoke design finished in matt tantalum grey paint finish and a high-sheen rim flange plus the AMG Night Package and the AMG Night package II.

A fuel cap in silver chrome with AMG lettering completes the changes on the outside.

The interior features a contrast of black and red, stainless steel door sill trims with red illuminated AMG lettering, black AMG floor mats with red contrasting stitching and ‘Edition 55’ lettering woven in red.

There is an AMG Performance steering wheel in Dinamica microfibre that spawns the ‘AMG’ and ’55’ badges as well as AMG seats upholstered in two-tone Nappa leather in classic red/black plus AMG trim element in matt carbon.

The Mercedes-AMG G 63 Editon 55 is only a cosmetic update and soldiers on with the standard car’s 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 with 430 kW and 850 Nm as well as a 9-speed automatic transmission.

Mercedes-AMG also sells the G 63 Edition 55 a customised AMG Indoor Car Cover – should you need it.

The German carmaker says more birthday surprises will follow in the coming months, so we wait.
