Mercedes-Benz has released a new official video starring the new ML 63 AMG, which was premiered at the last Los Angeles Auto Show. In the comparison with the outgoing generation, the most significant feature of the new model is obviously the new engine: the old, naturally aspirated 6.2-litre V8 unit has been replaced with a 5.5-litre twin turbo engine with direct injection, which will be available in two power steps: the standard 525 hp configuration (with 700 Nm of peak torque) and the Performance Package-equipped 557 hp (760 Nm). The latter will have a limited top speed of 280 km/h (173 mph).
Both variants will come with the obvious all-wheel drive and the well-known 7G-Tronic Speedshift Plus gearbox, which provides for three cruising modes: Controlled Efficiency, Sport and Manual. Other significant features of the new ML 63 AMG include electric sliding glass roof, Becker sat-nav, 20 CD audio system with Bluetooth and USB interfaces, heated seats for the driver and front passenger, tyre pressure monitoring system and exclusive AMG bits all across (i.e. carmats, sill panels, stainless steel pedals and so on)
On the top of all that, the Performance Package provides for carbon fibre engine cover, red painted calipers and 21″ 5-spoke AMG alloys, which will be made available for the ’standard’ version as well as optional extras.
