Widebody 2019 Mercedes-AMG G63 Is An Ode To Carbon Fiber

577 hp was just not enough, so it’s been upgraded to 700 horsepower. Tuners are already finding the ways to spice up the performance SUV, as we are patiently waiting for the Mercedes-AMG to introduce G63 S.  A right-hand drive example of the amped-up G-Wagen is taken by the aftermarket specialist at Urban Automotive from the United Kingdom and gave it a comprehensive carbon fiber treatment. From the bumpers to the rear spoiler at the back made from carbon fiber, they customized the G63 with everything. Side sills make use of the lightweight material. Beefier wheel arches extending the width of the vehicle by 50 mm compared to the standard version also make use of the lightweight material. The lower diffuser lending the G63 a more aggressive look and the carbon fiber package is rounded off by the spare wheel cover. 

The speedy SUV from Mercedes has gained a new set of 23-inch wheels with matching tires complimented by a custom suspension setup. It also has the roof-mounted LED lights. All thanks to the new exhaust system with switchable valves that the sound delivered by the twin-turbo 4.0 V8 can be adjusted to your liking. Without some extra muscle coming from the underneath the hood, the engine wouldn’t be a complete tuning kit. Eight-cylinder mill to 700horsepower or 123 hp more than the standard G63 is taken by the Urban automotive. The model might have something in common with the 805-horsepower electrified powertrain the AMG GT concept had.
