Record summary
What to know first
G550 uses a 443-horsepower mild-hybrid turbo six; AMG G63 steps up to a 577-horsepower mild-hybrid twin-turbo V8 with AMG-specific tuning and styling. A separate G580 EV variant exists outside this gas-powered record.
Model-year note
The all-electric G580 With EQ Technology is a distinct powertrain, not part of this G550/AMG G63 gas-engine record. MY2027 is a confirmed, sourced carryover, while several other Mercedes SUVs (GLE, GLS) get substantial MY2027 updates, the G-Class does not.
