Mercedes-AMG G-Class Performance Overview

AMG’s G-Class performance story across 8 verified tests spanning 2016 to 2025 is defined by twin-turbo V8 and V12 output in the final years of W463, then a clear step forward with the current W464. In the older W463 generation, tested examples used AMG’s M157 V8 and M279 V12, with output ranging from 563 to 621 hp. That era opened here with the 2016 G65 at 5.2 seconds to 60 mph, while the 2016 G63 cut that to 4.8 seconds and reset the model’s quickest benchmark at the time.

The transition to W464 for 2019 brought the M177 twin-turbo V8, rated at 577 hp in every tested example, and the G-Class moved into a different performance band. A 2019 G63 (Night) reached 60 mph in 3.9 seconds, establishing the current-generation pace immediately, while later tests maintained that level with the 2022 G63 (Night) also at 3.9 seconds. In current form, the quickest result remains the 2025 G63 (Night) at 3.9 seconds to 60 mph and a 12.5-second quarter-mile at 107.8 mph. Across the full set, average acceleration stands at 4.35 seconds to 60 mph and 12.9 seconds in the quarter-mile, with all recorded tests coming from gasoline-powered AMG variants.
