FULL POWER ON SIX WHEELS.
The vehicle's powerful performance is attributable in large part to the AMG 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine, which deploys numerous technological highlights to generate 760 newton metres of torque, and the AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC automatic transmission. The automatic transmission features three modes and automatic double declutching during downshifting, supplying the power via a cardan shaft to the transfer case with reduction gear. In "Controlled Efficiency" mode (C), the most economical possible driving style is the central focus for the engine and drive control strategies. Sport (S) and Manual (M) modes see the engine-transmission set-up in markedly more agile form. A brief and exactly defined retardation of ignition and injection during upshifting at full load provides for shorter shift times here.
CUSTOMISED AIR PRESSURE.
The superiority of the G 63 AMG 6X6 is also demonstrated by an innovative tyre pressure control system which enables the driver to vary the tyre pressure for the front axle and the two rear axles separately. Thanks to a high-capacity compressor and four 20-litre pressure vessels installed on the sides in the rear wheel arches, tyre pressure adjustment takes place in world-record time: rather than the period of around 10 minutes which is usually required, the system takes less than
20 seconds to raise the tyre pressure from 0.5 bar for use on sand to the 1.8 bar which is appropriate for road use. Furthermore, the special beadlock wheels enable the tyre pressure to be reduced to such an extent that the pressure exerted on the ground by the G 63 AMG 6X6 is equivalent merely to the footprint of a person of normal weight. No other off-roader has ever come anywhere near such a minimal leve
The G 63 AMG 6x6 shows real substance on the inside, too, with a spectacular interior design concept featuring an exclusive dashboard whose new instruments and a large central colour display are enough to steal the show in their own right. The show car also offers a designo leather backdrop with individual contrasting topstitching and an attractive diamond pattern. Other highlights include four electrically adjustable, heated and ventilated individual seats, a special centre console in the rear and Alcantara® linings for the roof and the pillars.
