Mercedes launches GL 63 AMG in India

Mercedes-Benz India has just added another car to its AMG line-up, and it’s now also available in India. The all-new GL 63 AMG was launched last month in Mumbai, and it’s a big, bold and beautiful machine that features some of the most advanced technology that you could possibly find in a production car today. The GL 63 AMG has a 5.5-litre V8 bi-turbo engine, which develops a peak output of 557bhp – the highest in its segment – and also a maximum torque of 760Nm. The engine is mated to the AMG Speedshift Plus 7G-Tronic automatic transmission that incorporates various systems for reduced friction losses. The GL 63 AMG can race from 0-100km/h in just 4.9 seconds. The unique AMG Ride Control sports suspension with Active Curve System roll stabilisation provides high-level driving dynamics and the comfort that Mercedes-Benz is synonymous with. The interiors are also extremely luxurious, and feature a Harman Kardon Logic 7 surround sound system with 14 speakers, wireless headphones, and 2 infrared remote controls so that passengers can control their own sources of entertainment.
