Mercedes-Benz releases a slew of official images dedicated to the ML 63 AMG, the latest muscular SUV from three-pointed star house. The model comes with a brand new 5.5-litre biturbo V8 engine delivering 518 hp and 700 Nm (516 lb-ft) of peak torque, and capable of pushing the new ML from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in just 4.8 seconds, with a self-imposed top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph). The Mercedes ML 63 AMG is also equipped with the new Active Curve System, which uses active anti-roll bars on both front and rear axles to compensate for body roll angles while cornering. Besides, it ensures that the vehicle does not react badly to one-sided suspension movements caused by potholes and/or bumps.
For those who would like to get even more out of it, Mercedes offers the so called Performance Package, which increases the working pressure of the turbocharger from 1 to 1.3 bar, providing the car with an extra 32 hp and 60 Nm (44 lb-ft) of torque, boosting its total output to 550 hp and 760 Nm. With this Performance Package, the new ML 63 AMG is allowed to reach no less than 280 km/h (174 mph). The new Mercedes ML 63 AMG and ML 63 AMG Performance are scheduled to hit the market this coming April, priced at 116.450 € and 127.220 € respectively.
