2015 Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6x6: Price and Availability

  • 2015 G63 AMG 6x6 priced at €456,900 including VAT
  • Price up €5,890 over 2014 model
  • Production limited to 20–30 units for 2015
  • 5.5-litre bi-turbo V8 with 544hp and 758Nm
  • Extended standard equipment for 2015

Price Increase and Equipment Updates

The price rise over the 2014 model, which started at €451,010, is attributed to a broader standard equipment list. For 2015, Mercedes-Benz has added features such as a heated windscreen, auto-dimming rear view mirror, and folding heated side mirrors. These additions aim to enhance comfort and practicality for what is otherwise a highly specialised off-road machine. The G63 AMG 6x6 is targeted at buyers seeking a blend of luxury and extreme off-road capability, and the updated equipment list reflects this dual purpose.

Mercedes-Benz will produce only 20 to 30 examples of the G63 AMG 6x6 in 2015, matching the output of the previous year. This limited run ensures the model retains its rarity and appeal among collectors and buyers interested in unique, high-performance off-road vehicles. The exclusivity of the G63 AMG 6x6 is further reinforced by its high price point and specialist features.

Technical Details and Equipment

The G63 AMG 6x6 is powered by a 5.5-litre bi-turbo AMG V8, delivering 544hp (400kW) and 758Nm of torque. The engine is paired with the AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC automatic transmission, sending power to all six wheels through three portal axles. This drivetrain configuration is designed to maximise off-road performance, allowing the vehicle to tackle extreme terrain with confidence.

The vehicle measures 5.87 metres in length and 2.10 metres in width, with a ground clearance of 2.3 metres and 37-inch tyres. These dimensions and features underline the G63 AMG 6x6’s off-road credentials, distinguishing it from conventional luxury SUVs. The model is equipped with three locking differentials and portal axles, which provide additional ground clearance and improved wheel articulation for challenging conditions.

No official performance figures have been released for the 6x6, although the focus remains on its off-road ability rather than outright speed. The model’s technical features, including its three locking differentials and portal axles, are designed for extreme terrain rather than tarmac performance. Owners are likely to value its ability to traverse sand dunes, rocky trails, and other challenging environments where few vehicles can venture.

Position in the Mercedes-Benz Range

The G63 AMG 6x6 sits at the top of the G-Class range in terms of price, exclusivity and off-road capability. Its production numbers are a fraction of standard G-Class models, and its price positions it well above other AMG variants. The six-wheel drive system and unique chassis place it closer to a specialist military vehicle than a conventional luxury SUV, appealing to a niche market of buyers who prioritise both ruggedness and high-end features.

For those seeking a vehicle that stands out both in appearance and capability, the G63 AMG 6x6 offers a combination of extreme off-road hardware with the refinement and comfort expected from Mercedes-Benz. The model’s rarity, with only 20 to 30 units produced for 2015, enhances its status as a collector’s item and a statement vehicle.

Market and Collectibility

The G63 AMG 6x6’s high price and limited production contribute to its desirability among collectors and enthusiasts. Its unique combination of military-inspired engineering and luxury appointments makes it a standout even within the exclusive AMG line-up. The vehicle’s appeal is further heightened by its ability to handle conditions that would challenge most other SUVs, making it a practical choice for buyers in regions with demanding terrain, as well as a symbol of exclusivity in urban environments.

Given its limited production and high specification, the 2015 G63 AMG 6x6 is expected to retain its value well and may even become more sought-after as time passes. Mercedes-Benz’s decision to keep production numbers low helps ensure that each example remains a rare sight, reinforcing its position at the pinnacle of the G-Class family.
