 Let us take a look at everything the 2024 Mercedes-AMG G 63 has to offer:

Exterior

At first glance, the 2024 Mercedes-AMG G 63 looks very similar to the outgoing model. It continues to get the iconic boxy silhouette that is associated with G-Class models, round projector-based LED headlights with circular LED DRLs as before and fender-mounted turn indicators. But look closely and you can spot the changes such as a blacked-out grille and Mercedes logo as well as a tweaked bumper. The wheel design is also new and one can option it up to 22-inches in size. Apart from that, the car is more or less similar to the pre-facelift version. 

Interior, Features And Safety

Even on the inside, at first glance, the 2024 AMG G 63 has a similar cabin layout as the pre-facelift model. The steering wheel, however, is new and is similar to the current-gen Mercedes-AMG cars with rotary dials to select different functions.

The seats are finished in Nappa leather upholstery and the SUV has carbon fibre accents and customisable ambient lighting. But what’s new here is that the dual 12.3-inch screens now boast updated software and have an updated off-road cockpit (showing vital stats) and Augmented Reality integrated into the navigation system. 

In terms of features, it has the aforementioned dual 12.3-inch screens on the dashboard (one for touchscreen and the other for driver’s display), an 18-speaker Burmester 3D surround sound system, 3-zone auto AC and a sunroof.

Its safety suite includes multiple airbags, a 360-degree camera with blind spot assist and ISOFIX child seat mounts. It also has an updated advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) suite with features like active brake assist and lane keep assist.
