The interior of the 2016 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class provides seating for seven people and the second and third rows can also fold down to create more than 93 cubic feet of available storage space.

Plans to add a new high-performance AMG variant to its GL Class lineup has been one of Mercedes-Benz鈥檚 worst kept secrets, with prototypes for the potent full-size luxury SUV spotted testing in public for over two years now. Today the covers have come off the 2013 Mercedes-Benz GL63 AMG, which is confirmed to hit showrooms in the first quarter of next year. Based on the recently revealed 2013 GL Class, the new GL63 AMG dons the usual assortment of visual enhancements from the stylists at AMG. This includes a slightly more aggressive front bumper featuring enlarged air intakes, unique daytime running lights, chrome detailing and pumped fenders. The GL63 AMG also picks up a set of 21-inch light alloy wheels shod with 295/40 tires, 鈥淰8 BITURBO鈥?badging and illuminated door sills with an aluminum finish. At the rear is a quartet of exhaust tips finished in chrome. While the visual enhancements may only be noticed by true AMG fans, there鈥檚 nothing subtle about the car鈥檚 powerplant.
Under the hood is the Affalterbach tuner鈥檚 latest twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V-8 engine that delivers a peak output of 550 horsepower and 560 pound-feet of torque in the GL63 AMG. Mercedes-Benz promises 0-60 mph acceleration in just 4.9 seconds and an electronically-limited top speed of 155 mph, numbers that are simply astonishing for a vehicle of this size. Remember, the GL, even in high-performance AMG trim, can seat seven. Ensuring the vehicle stays maneuverable, even at speed, are a host of electronic systems including AMG RIDE CONTROL sports suspension with AIRMATIC as well as the ACTIVE CURVE SYSTEM. The entire setup consists of air suspension, sports struts, an automatic self-leveling function, active dampers, and active anti-roll bars both front and rear. The driver can control all of these features by switching between two suspension modes, 鈥淐omfort鈥?and 鈥淪port鈥? Also aiding handling performance is 4MATIC all-wheel drive, electronic traction and stability control, and electronic steering.
