At the heart of AMG's latest creation, the ML 63 AMG lies the firm's new 5.5-liter V8 biturbo engine that is rated (in North American specification) at 518-horsepower and 516 lb-ft (700Nm), representing an increase of 15HP and 44 lb-ft over its predecessor.

And if that's not enough power, there's also an available AMG Performance Package boosts the V8 engine's output to 550HP and its maximum torque to 560 lb-ft (759Nm).

Mercedes-Benz says that acceleration from zero to 60 mph (96km/h) takes 4.7 seconds and 4.6 seconds for the 518HP and 550HP models respectively, while top speed is electronically limited at 155 mph and at 174 mph with the AMG Performance Package. Estimated combined fuel economy for both models is 16mpg US (14.7 lt/100km or 19.2mpg UK).

The ML 63 AMG is equipped with a permanent all-wheel drive system that distributes engine power at a ratio of 40:60 to the front and rear axle, and a standard AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7-speed automatic transmission featuring three driving modes - Controlled Efficiency (C) for improved fuel economy, Sport (S) and Manual (M). Mercedes notes that the SUV's standard ECO stop/start function is active only in the C driving mode.

For the first time, the AMG sports suspension with AIRMATIC Air Suspension, independent damper struts, automatic level control and Adaptive Damping System (ADS) is combined with the firm's ACTIVE CURVE SYSTEM that features active stabilizers on the front and rear axles to compensate for body roll during cornering.

This any may other models will be making their presence felt at the upcoming LA Motor Show.
