The new 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG from Mercedes-AMG represents the third generation of the high-performance sport utility vehicle. It all began in 1999 with the 2000 ML55 AMG. The performance of the 2007 ML63 AMG was in the sports-car league.
Power for the 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG comes from a 5.5 liter V8 biturbo engine making 518-hp at 5,250 rpm with a maximum torque of 516 lb-ft between 1,750 – 5,000 rpm. The AMG Performance Package also adds an engine cover genuine carbon fiber, calipers painted in red and the AMG Performance steering wheel in Premium leather/DINAMICA.
The 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG, which is 99 pounds lighter than its predecessor, also gets something called the ACTIVE CURVE SYSTEM for active roll stabilization. The 2012 Mercedes ML63 AMG will hit U.S. showrooms in the first quarter of 2012.
The AMG Performance Package also includes an engine cover in high-quality genuine carbon fiber, calipers painted in red and the AMG Performance steering wheel in Premium leather/DINAMICA.
Power delivery to all four permanently driven wheels is via the AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7-speed automatic transmission. This system, which is standard equipment on the Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG, features active stabilizers on the front and rear axles to compensate for body roll during cornering.
The design of the new ML63 AMG exudes self-confidence, athleticism and power. AMG styling dominates the front view.
