The Mercedes-AMG G63 Grand Edition is making waves with its bold design and high-performance capabilities. Under the hood, the 4.0-litre bi-turbo V8 engine delivers an impressive 430 kW and 850 N.m of torque, propelling the SUV from 0 to 100 km/h in a claimed 4.5 seconds. However, much of the attention surrounding the Grand Edition has focused on its striking aesthetics.
Exclusive Design & Luxury Features
Finished in MANUFAKTUR ‘night black magno’, the Grand Edition’s distinct look is elevated by gold-coloured accents. The ‘Kalaharigold magno’ hue highlights key exterior elements, including the Mercedes star, Affalterbach emblem, AMG logo, bumper inlays, spare-wheel cover surround, 22-inch alloy wheels, and side decals. Inside, black Nappa leather seats with gold stitching continue the theme of exclusivity.
Etzebeth’s Connection to Mercedes-Benz
South African rugby star Eben Etzebeth has further fueled interest in the Grand Edition after showcasing it on social media. As a “Friend of the Brand” for Mercedes-Benz South Africa, Etzebeth has access to several high-end models, including the GLS 63 and a GLE400d—gifted after South Africa’s Rugby World Cup victory. His wife, Anlia, reportedly owns a GLC300d.
A Rare Collectible
The combination of the G63 Grand Edition’s limited availability and its blend of luxury and performance makes it a sought-after model. With its eye-catching gold accents and powerful AMG performance, this special edition SUV is more than just a vehicle—it’s a statement.
