2013 MERCEDES-BENZ G'63 AMG: AMG'S CANNON - Performance arm's remake of military-grade Mercedes SUV is a wild weapon

摘要

AT 33 YEARS OF AGE, MOST cars either have been long consigned to history or to the crusher. Not the Mercedes-Benz G-class. Launched two years before Jimmy Carter vacated the White House-yes, that long ago - the celebrated off-road icon produced by Steyr-Puch in Graz, Austria, and originally conceived for use by United Nations forces has just undergone its most extensive facelift to date. Among the changes are a new twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V8 direct-injection engine and a seven-speed automatic gearbox in the new performance-oriented G63 AMG model.
