Mercedes has announced the 2007 Mercedes G 55 AMG, an updated version of its high-performance off-roader, now with 500 horsepower for the new model year. The supercharged 5.5-litre AMG engine generates its maximum torque of 700 newton metres between 2750 and 4000 rpm. These exceptional figures allow the truck to accelerate to 62 mph in just 5.5 seconds. Visually, the new model year G 55 AMG is distinguishable from its predecessor by 18-inch AMG light-alloy wheels painted in titanium grey with 285/55 R 18 wide-base tyres. Standard appointments now include bi-xenon headlamps, oval foglamps with a cornering light function and ISOFIX child seat attachments in the second seat row. The more scratch resistant, nano-technology based paint finishes of calcite white, periclase green metallic and teallite blue metallic are also new.

 

Too bad no G63 AMG yet.

Was wrong about 2013 tho, it should be 2010 .

 

This is great news... I love the G55!!

Great find! Thanks for sharing.

 

I dont know why a lot of people don't like the vehicle, i think it's alot better then the hummer, even the range rover. It's handbuilt, it's a beast. I think the towing cap is like 9k lbs. The torque is unbelievable. The car looks very masculine.

 

No more Gs in the United States

 

They ARE available here. Go ask your dealer...

 

they have the G500 right on the US website...the G55 dont know about...

 

The G55 is something really impressive...so compact and powerful...strange they are still having the 5.5!
Great pics Sebastiaan

 

that is the most badass suv ever..

 

Very Hott, Love the G
