New Mercedes G-Class

The most lunatic Mercedes G-Class has arrived, G65 AMG! This new model features a V12 petrol engine with 612 PS of power and 1000 nm of torque. And this makes it, the most powerful SUV on market. Some people may not like the G-Class, but for me it is one of the best-looking SUVs on market. With this new engine, the experience would much better.

In addition, G65 AMG provides the opportunity to experience the potential of this engine. Prior to G-Class, this engine was available only with rear-wheel drive cars and it was not quite easy to control the car and see what this engine can do.

Anyway, today Mercedes announced the face-lift the G-Class and G65 AMG is a part of it. As you would imagine this car has similar exterior design but, the interior is totally changed. It is totally a new car! The previous models always suffered from outdated interior, even though the material quality was really high, however it was not matching with other Mercedes vehicles’ interior. Finally Mercedes resolved this problem and designed the interior totally from scratch. And it looks really amazing!

This car also features, Distronic Plus, radar guided cruise control with full stop and go function, ECO start/stop function, which I found a bit senseless. This car has an aerodynamic co-efficiency of a wall, so start/stop function may not help that much. Also Parktronic for easy parking, again you don’t need worry about this! Just park to anywhere you want. A revised trail stability programme, new Hold function for steep hills, Blind Spot Assist. Gearbox is now 7G-Tronic Plus in all models. Also, it features three differential locks, low range gearbox and really tough chassis for superior off-road.

But they say anything about electrically folded exterior mirror. In previous models, this function was not available at all. And they need to offer door closing aid, as the doors are very heavy and sometimes really hard to close.

In addition, G63 AMG is also available. But I don’t see a point to buy it when you have the lunatic V12 G65 AMG :)

Overall, I would definitely buy one!
