Mercedes-AMG has upgraded the GT 63 and GT 63 S for the 2023 model year, and even if they do look almost the same, the two V8-powered models actually fea.
Five generations, a production run (with interruptions) between 1991 and 2017, as well as a cult following. That would be, in a nutshell, the Dodge Viper, if not for the special versions.
Mercedes is finally adding the AMG GLC 63 S SUV to its US lineup, following years of offering it exclusively with the SUV Coupe bodystyle.
Mercedes-Benz USA says that the reason behind offering the 2022 AMG GLC 63 S SUV in the country was to meet demand from customers. Deliveries will commence in the fourth quarter of 2021.
The 2022 Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 S is powered by a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 producing 503 HP and 516 lb-ft of torque. The unit is paired to a nine-speed automatic transmission and a permanent all-wheel-drive system, catapulting the GLC 63 S to 60 mph (96 km/h) from a standstill in just 3.6 seconds. Flat out it’ll do an electronically limited 174 mph (280 km/h).

The 2022 Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 S SUV is finally getting a US release

Mercedes-AMG is bringing another of its ridiculously-potent SUVs to the US, with the 2022 AMG GLC 63 S SUV joining its coupe sibling as a family hauler with serious horsepower. Like its slope-roofed counterpart, the GLC 63 S SUV packs a V8 biturbo engine, which in this case can propel things from 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds.
That’s quick by any standards, but particularly when you consider this is a fairly vast SUV. It trims 0.2 seconds off the AMG GLC 63 SUV which, until now, had been the most potent version of the model that Mercedes offered in the US.
