Goodwood Festival of Speed: Mercedes ML 63 AMG Photos

Mercedes ML 63 AMG is the most powerful model of Mercedes M-Class and recently, Mercedes revealed the new M-Class. This made us to wait for the new ML 63 AMG! And finally I saw ML 63 AMG with my own eyes!

Similar to SL 63 AMG, ML 63 AMG does not look very aggressive like old days. I really don’t know why they decided to change the design philosophy for the ML 63 AMG! I really loved the previous aggressive look of the ML 63 AMG.

I still could not get use to new ML’s rear look. I guess, I would love to drive ML 63 AMG but too conservative design places an obstacle between the ML 63 AMG and me.

Technical details are here!

Mercedes GL 63 AMG Photos

Mercedes GL 63 AMG is finally revealed. Unfortunately, there are no information regarding to technical details. Only images were released to Mercedes-AMG Global Fan Page. However, Mercedes GL 63 AMG will definitely have the same engine that is available on Mercedes ML 63 AMG; 5.5-lt V8 petrol engine produces 525 PS of power and 700 nm of torque. Engine will be coupled with an AMG Speedshift Plus 7-G Tronic automatic gearbox and definitely the top speed will be limited to 250 kph (155 mph).  Unfortunately, I cannot guess about the consumption or CO2 levels. As soon as the more detailed will be published, I will revise the post. Until that time, enjoy the photos.

Here is the official technical details, Mercedes GL 63 AMG has more power and torque than ML 63 AMG. So my prediction was not accurately correct.

The key data at a glance:
GL 63 AMG
Displacement
5461 cc
Bore x stroke
98.0 x 90.5 mm
Compression ratio
10.0:1
Output
410 kW (557 hp) at 5250-5750 rpm
Max. torque
760 Nm at 2000-5000 rpm
Engine weight (dry)
204 kg
Fuel consumption, NEDC combined
12.3 l/100 km
CO2 emissions
288 g/km
Acceleration 0-100 km/h
4.9 s
Top speed
250 km/h*
My opinion about Mercedes GL 63 AMG is, a bit senseless vehicle. Because, Mercedes GL is promoted as an off-road biased SUV and it is one of the biggest SUV on the market and does not have a very strong sales figures. Thus, it is a relative high risk to introduce Mercedes GL 63 AMG, when there are very vague competitors are available and the demand to huge big SUV with aggressive engines! It is better to keep Mercedes GL exclusive rather than engaging with AMG.
In addition, the exterior design of Mercedes GL is not biased on sporty character like Mercedes ML. And, extending AMG brand to each product is not a very good as well. Because, this will reduce the exclusivity of AMG. If Mercedes can keep the AMG brand in fewer models, it will be more beneficial in future to sustain AMG’s exclusive image.
I hope it won’t share the same faith of Mercedes R 63 AMG; a bit of failure! And don’t forget, Mercedes GL 63 AMG was cancelled before going to production, when Mercedes GL was firstly introduced to market. It is obvious that Mercedes does not wish to take risk with an aggressive exterior design with Mercedes GL 63 AMG scare some of the customers. Mercedes GL 63 AMG is the only calm looking AMG!

Mercedes ML63 AMG: Blue Smoke from Exhaust!

I am sure, you might have seen some people accelerating with their superfast cars as soon as they run their engines. Unfortunately, this behaviour is quite common with those drivers. Accelerating like in a Hollywood movie might sound nice but have an adverse effect. The adverse effect is very basic, the engine starts to burn engine oil in additional to petrol!
As soon as the engine starts, it is not possible lubricate every single part of the engine. And accelerating without hesitation leads to scuff the cylinders with insufficient lubrication. You might be thinking, do we have to wait? Of course not. You need to be more gentle to avoid this problem.
Unfortunately, Greek gods do not manufacture car engines and paying lots of money does not change the fundamentals of physics. Whether you have an expensive car or not, if you push the limits of the engine without waiting for couple of minutes would probably end up with the same tragedy. Blue smoke from the exhaust and burning engine oil!
Just watch the smoke from the Mercedes ML63 AMG’s exhausts!
