HAVING been around for the better part of 40 years, the G-Class off-roader is the type of model that could only be made by a large, and profitable, car-maker like Mercedes-Benz.
Especially in it’s top-spec, AMG-fettled G63 form, the details of the upper-large luxury SUV read a bit like a list of oxymorons.
A 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged petrol V8 wedded to a four-wheel-drive system with a low-range transfer case? Check. How about an old-school exterior aesthetic combined with a high-tech, high-definition touchscreen in-cabin control? Yep, that’s in there too.
However, while the Mercedes-G63 might sound like an oxymoron, it never feels moronic as the sum of all its parts deliver a vehicle that is truly special in today’s increasingly homogenised world.
