What is the difference between Mercedes-Benz G500 and G63?

kathy80

My Tesla's range is no longer enough for my daily life. I want to buy a Mercedes-Benz G, but I'm not sure about the difference between G63 and G500. Can someone help me analyze it?

It's the size/power of the engine. The 63 is more powerful (and, much higher priced)

Yes, kydfx is correct, mostly engine size and price, along with some trim and suspension tuning, etc. Both of these are also very thirsty vehicles, and might not have a useful range longer than an EV.

G500 hasn't existed in the US market since the 2009 model year, are you in a non-North American location?

The G500/G550 with ride more smoothly if that is your priority. The G63 will be faster and ride more roughly and be more fuel thirsty.

If you want a staid yet solid ride the G500/G550 is for you ! If you want 563-577 hp of AMG bonkers power & poise, the G63 is for you ! It is brash to the point where Girlie-men on bicycles decry foul when you whisk along with dual sets of side pipes snarling at street spandex clad wimps ! I get a laughable 9 mph and I don't gaf ! It crazy like me ! The price for my AMG was well over 100 k, but the depreciation of a Gelandewagen is better than just about any car on the road ! I feel the need for speed>>>>> vroom vroomc!
