SPY: The 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML 63 AMG gets ready for the LA Auto Show premiere

The upcoming generation ML 63 AMG has been a rare sight since test prototypes hit streets in 2009, as not many spy spotters managed to catch it in action. If the standard M-Class is already out, then it's time Mercedes-Benz unleashed the fast and furious ML 63 AMG as well.


It was recently reported that a definitive decision was made to reveal the car at next month's Los Angeles Motor Show in the United States. When it's launched, the new ML 63 AMG will be powered by the 5.5-litre biturbo V8 unit with up to 525 hp/700 Nm in standard specification. If the client decides for more juice, then the optional AMG Performance Pack will solve the deal thanks to an increase of 33 hp/100 Nm up to 557 hp/800 Nm in the engine peak output/torque. All that gargantuan power will be sent to the four wheels with the help of the ingenious AMG SPEEDSHIFT MCT-7 gearbox. Zero to 100 km/h will take approximately 4.5 seconds, whereas the top speed is electronically limited at 250 km/h.
