I Want a New Mercedes-AMG G63! | FIRST DRIVE

This is the brand new generation Mercedes-AMG G63 and everything you could possibly want to know about it! From a full in-depth walkaround to heading off-road on a mountain and then even a rally stage. While still very much a G on the outside, under the skin it's been vastly improved, so take a watch to see all about it.
Kicking off in Perpignan, France, the first part of the drive has us crossing through the Corbier Mountains. The previous generation G63 had left me disappointed on road but for the new car, AMG have pulled out all the stops and transformed it to a genuinely dynamic vehicle. Powered by the AMG 4.0l Biturbo V8, it's pushing out 585hp and 850Nm, meaning 0-62mph/100kmh is just 4.6 seconds.
Next is a full exploration walkaround of the car, to discuss the differences of the G63 to the G500 or G550, as well as the specifics of this Edition 1 version. We can take a look at and listen to the engine as well as an introduction to the radical refined interior. Then we jump back onto the road for a run through the driving modes up to Sport + to push it harder and get a better feel.
Finally we arrive at the venue used by Mercedes 28 years ago to launch a previous model of the G, and still a location used for testing. This gives the opportunity to take a G500 and go to push it on surfaces that one could not even walk, but swapping back into a G63 for the rally stage track.
Laatly it's back to the base of the mountain for a more detailed run through the interior and technology that the car has to offer. Enjoy the video!
Thanks for watching, Tim

Join me for a full experience with the latest generation of the Mercedes-AMG G63! Still very much an iconic G, but substantially improved beneath the surface let's go drive it on tarmac and off-road to discover what it's all about... And find out exactly why I now crave one so badly!

With the exposure you would give them, and the statement it would make, 'that every super car owner needs a G wagon' they should GIVE you one, it would be a great marketing tool, they would be stupid to turn you down if u pitch the idea, hell u got 1.2 million scrubs and go to every major car event in the world and more than half would be in the G wagon, i would boycott Mercedes if they turned u down

You are the best car reviewer without a doubt. When a new car is released I immediately check if you've done a video or not. Great work.

[@blairanderson2043]

Tim there is simply no better and more in depth review of an automobile than one done by you. The manufacturers obviously see that, and if there's one that doesn't, then they're missing out on a big opportunity. Thank you once again for giving us such incredible information, and for bringing us on these journey's with you. Cheers from Canada.

[@ulqviorra]

You should check out Doug Demuro's KZbin chanel aswell !

[@blairanderson2043]

J A I have watched his reviews before and although they are great and have loads of info, he's not bringing anything I find to be fresh or new. Tim gets so many amazing opportunities that he shares with us along with great info. I'm a fan lol

[@ulqviorra]

Good for you

[@hanifmacca]

Doug is OK but his voice is stuck at 6000 RPM ALL the time!

[@entreptiles]

I prefer Tim’s approach over Doug’s. Tim is more refined and doesn’t bash them for certain quirks.

[@florianthomas7852]

A bit of sunshine and the brit turns red.

[@AutomotiveMike]

Baller Tim, living the supercar life!

[@Shmee150]

What do you think of the Supercar life with a G63 to tow a Ford GT around inside a trailer behind you? xD

[@Feyenoord-vx3dt]

Shmee150 😂😂

[@BeunSoldaat]

do it!

[@N7Bluerose]

That G63 is both lovely and insane.

[@vivianaespinosa1785]

Foxtreal couldn’t have said it better!

[@tysonkobe6947]

I wasn't expecting a 41min video but since its the new Mercedes-AMG G63 its way worth it, another great video the way you show every lil detail it makes the video even better...

[@Shmee150]

Thank you, glad you liked it

[@Clover-db2sw]

oh wow 40min video, getting popcorn ready again ;)

[@Shmee150]

Hope you enjoy it, a lot of detail to share about the car!

[@michagarwolinski8270]

You can and you should do more videos like this. I love this long review from you. Awesome car, buy it Tim.

[@rickbullock4331]

Geez, I really like the fact that you have done your homework on the cars you critique. Your smooth knowledgeable banter is a breath of fresh air. Well done. I love these Mercedes but unfortunately can’t afford one. Keep up the good work.👍

[@Boothy97HD]

I've been a subscriber for years now but I must say this has been one of the most enjoyable automotive videos i've watched in a long time, plenty of info and found the offroad section really good viewing and i'm not even a big fan of the G's... Well done Tim

[@peter-radiantpipes2800]

Amazing video. Usually don’t like long videos on KZbin but this is great. A dynamic profile of a vehicle with history and heritage. Great to wake and have coffee to this. 👍

[@gregorygant4242]

It's actually not made in Germany ,except for the engine ,which is made by AMG .The car is made by Magna Steyr of Austria for Mercedes guys.

[@bamphmx-5548]

And now? The GLE is made in USA, but still a German car.

[@gregorygant4242]

Fair enough , but the engine is still made by AMG in Affalterbach Germany ,so it's still pretty much a German car to me .

[@michagarwolinski8270]

So? Tell about 'british' range rover build in india on 'sweden' volvo build in china. That's how it work

[@cme1447]

Austria is Germany 👍🏻

[@deedeee780]

This is a Monster

[@DanielSadjadian]

The off-roading section was so good to watch!

[@roadsandram-tci5352]

Omg! What a review! Also like the new way the review is conveyed if this is what continues Tim and his guys will rule the world of cartubing

[@Shmee150]

Thanks for the kind words

[@eugenepaull9513]

Absolutely brilliant you're the best Shmee! I think KZbin they should give you a trophy for your amazing job. Keep up bro we got your back, this is perfect have a great day bro #TeamShmee #KeepDoingAGoodWork #GodBlessU 👏㊙👌㊙😱㊙🔥㊙🙏㊙

[@zaheerkader7426]

One of your best reviews yet

[@MacheteK]

Dear Tim, Nobody loves your videos, Nobody likes your cars, Nobody likes your enthousiasm, Nobody thinks you drive your cars properly, Nobody appreciates your hard work, My name is Nobody ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° ).

[@AdamDawood]

Mashetekiller WTF u onna bout.

[@Shmee150]

This is a weird comment from you today?!

[@MacheteK]

I just wanted to do something different today. No worries, I'm still the same 😉. Love the video mate 👌

[@helloworld-bu1vk]

Mashetekiller So.... who are you?

[@allensaunders449]

Mashetekiller are you being sarcastic otherwise you are very wrong i appreciate shmee as the most important car person on you tube

[@marinz8610]

On the mountains ⛰ it looked risky, it’s amazing what this machine can do ...... 🚀 ⚡️

[@jinxforeva]

Dear Tim, I placed an order for mine in Diamond White Paintwork after watching your review on this car. Took my buddy’s E63S for a spin and I really liked it. They have the same engine if I’m not mistaken. It’s my first Merc anyway. Can’t wait for it to arrive. Keep up the good work and passion going! Cheers and thank you! :)

[@bobpotts73]

I never used to be a fan of the G-Wagon, this video has opened my eyes to how much of a complete package this thing is. Great review, yet again.

[@cesarcastillo2405]

I love the Edition 1 to this G63. It's way better than other Edition 1's from AMG. The red outline on the wheels look awesome and way better than the silver ones that makes the cars look odd. I hope they did that to the rest.

[@yongtaegpark8164]

Tim seems to work all the time, flying/driving everywhere. Total Respect.

[@ihabsuhaib7002]

God the the edition 1 spec is gorgeous😍

[@kumarankarth86]

Taking it to the badlands with full force. Your videos are full of in-depth analysis to keep us informed and up-to-date.

[@Enzo187]

yes Shmee, get a G. new ones are so insane looking (btw insanely perfect video as always)

[@MH-sk9pw]

This MB AMG G63 is epic and I wanna marry it for the rest of my life😍

[@slogo1234]

Very nice detailed video👌🏿👌🏿👌🏿

[@NoGoodHandlesComingToMind]

Wow. I love the G wagon, and your energy too! Thanks for posting this.

[@ThePadadada]

The door closing sound is still epic

[@ryadhasanahmed5443]

This thing screams Beverly Hills

[@bamphmx-5548]

banessa Ahmed it screams Autobahn

[@ryadhasanahmed5443]

Christoph S. yh but it's limited to 137 mph and costs extra to raise the limiter to 149 mph

[@triss23199]

Christoph S. Autobahn is the only thing this car doesn't scream lol

[@bamphmx-5548]

triss 23 say this again after being overtaken by 2 of them at once. It‘s the G63 and not the G320.

[@triss23199]

Christoph S. at high speeds you can also see them taking each exit to the gas station haha.. I get that they're fast dude, just not made for the Autobahn

[@TimRobson]

That offroading was ace, eh? Great to drive with you! Loved that rally stage. 😄👊

[@Shmee150]

It was an awesome experience, great to meet you!

[@shtopfl5247]

What a beautiful all around car it is if i had the money for it i would walk into a dealer ASAP 😍 great video Tim as allways

[@DanielSadjadian]

Love the Gwagon, it's just crazy!

[@oclvcarbon123]

No heads up display? Amazing in depth video Tim

[@loonycatige3893]

black and red combination of this must be supercool

[@Techademics]

Awesome Video like always! It might not be for everyone but is there any possible chance you can do a video with the Brand New Ford Fiesta ST? Would go nicely with your New Focus RS Red Edition! The new Fiesta ST is my dream "affordable" car and the Focus RS 'd take any day over the Mustang, always get excited when I see a New Fiesta ST and Focus RS :)

[@s19hu]

I was waiting for this review. Nice & lovely, love from India.

[@MohCars_]

Awesome! Loved it! Can I offer a suggestion... when recording offroad bits for certain cars, I think it would be better to turn off the auto-stabilization in the camera so it is clearer to audiences what the terrain is actually like that.

[@Shmee150]

Interesting idea, hard one to acrually do and will make it look pretty rough too

[@CypherSpy]

Can’t wait till mine arrives on January 2019

[@bnastali]

Loving those red seatbelts.

[@neuronmind]

A 70 's Euro Jeep with a muscle car engine and a TV set as dashboard. This car makes sense !

[@nawzy202]

What a review good job that g63 is insane they improved it by alot and that frame though what a beast

[@annarasego4399]

Brilliant review shmee

[@Mike-vh1ur]

i love these new look of these models and this model is way better than previous models :) Good video

[@favormaduka2875]

THUMB UP MAN FOR A GREAT JOB, WHAT A CAR.... THE BEST OR NOTHING!!! I LOVE THIS CAR :)

[@greigsanderson9673]

850nm will be amazing on off road.

[@Alexgtr35V]

I can't but agree that the new G63 is just a mind blowing improvement on pavement! Off-road it was a very good car already, but thanks to the new 40/60 power distribution, it really drives incredible on asphalt aswell!

[@kryten500]

I love the new Shmee-Wagen :D

[@lukasbohm2600]

I would say it wasnt the heat, which bubbleing the water, it was the exhaust air!😂😂

[@aladeengbtv2186]

Always feel like i know everything about a car after watching one of Shmee’s reviews 😂, great job 👌🏻

[@afrosamurai6969]

Today I saw a guy in a Restaurant(Hannover) who looks exactly...EXACTLY the same like you. It was crazy. He had that red shirt, the short trouser, same haircut(especially from behind), blue eyes but he was like 2 meters. I thought it could have been you because i live in Germany too

[@vdelrio999]

Would like to see reviewers include a kind of inner city driving course (eg attempt drive thrus, covered parking, parking lots, parallel parking, potholes, speed bumps, etc..).

[@knattertoni1111]

the painted front-bumber shows, what this car is really made for.

[@zarkar3169]

G-Class is love, G is life

[@utkarshkaushik617]

I love the new look of the new g63 AMG but iam a bit here and there about the normal g500 at first I don't like it but I appreciate Mercedes work on it but the g63 AMG I just loved it

[@twilson4159]

Good review. Mercedes Benz has done a great job at updating and improving the G Wagon

[@ToroClyatt]

Great improvements, yes, but I certainly do miss the more squarer angles and the front bars/rack

[@FamilyCTSV]

If it’s an option for you, YES get it. This thing is nice, along with your M5, it will be a nice line up.

[@roadamerica2011]

torque + gearing + good visibility+high ground clearance= Off road vehicle

[@galihprabasidi8498]

Don't really like the change on the exterior, looks more tame than the older one.

[@andrayr8900]

Galih Prabasidi same my dad has a 2018 g63 and I love the exterior more compared to the new body style

[@fry6344]

It screams "I'm better than you" lol

[@lordperezident]

Fry Haroon and "I rarely go off roading" lol can't wait to get mine :) lottery jackpot is coming into my life super fast! Universe is blessing me

[@fry6344]

Blanco Escondido Lol, I hope so my bro, may God help you get one :)

[@fry6344]

calvin cooke I'm Muslim so that's close, I'll take it! Lol

[@sirgeorgioalastrata4104]

calvin cooke too*

[@sirgeorgioalastrata4104]

Most rich people don't care what other people think. Middle class and lower class are always worried with what other people think

[@jmcp315]

A man with a class G Mercedes climbs the Everest😎

[@DanielSadjadian]

Love the way it sounds!

[@joeljose64]

awesome video! love the exhaust . gr8 features...... nxt shmeemobile 😀!!?

[@makfitness_]

Are you gonna show us the Rolls Royce Culinan launch next week ?

[@Shmee150]

Yep

[@michagarwolinski8270]

Ohh Tim, do it long with all details. I'm waiting for it.

[@bimmerlife5452]

Love the new led head lights

[@opeyemiodunayo6062]

Beautiful

[@phil_zupra_b5880]

I think it looks much better than the previous G class. The curved edges make it look more modern. I was never a big fan of the G class because of the old look boxy look. (I understand that the look is one of the reasons why people like that car)

[@cyrillgebert5631]

The austrian guy is such a cool cat!

[@charema]

a drive on a highway would be appreciated. Thanks anyway for this video

[@atipowered]

The best review by far

[@dionysusb.8880]

Best Video you've ever done Shmee150 in my opinion, thank you so much for sharing this with us!

[@geriallo3639]

What a wonderful denture!

[@spyrospets5813]

Fortunately, they didn't make the new AMG G 63 the same as the other new weird Mercedes-AMGs. And this is an SUV that actually behaves like an SUV, but she's elegant and beautiful at the same time. That's a very rare combination.

[@ChiliBuRevolution]

bless up #Shquad on another beauty day here in BC eh, late showing up this morning as my sow McRib farrowed recently and well we are inundated with bacon seeds, LOL aslways a joy to accompany you for another epic ride along Tim, sweet set of wheels but alas I am sure crawling thru the quad trails and FSR's, logging roads here in BC would wreck havoc on those lovely body panels....but what fun it would be eh! enjoy this day and those in your lives! 8^)

[@dxutube]

Very inspiring & in-depth

[@hymaxhuang]

before you have the G-class off-roader, now you have the G-class SUV

[@Abeylius]

Thank you Tim. Great informative video.

[@sonoftatanzambe248]

25:20 the guy is like "continue please continue" like is sick of shmee 😂😂 what did you do to him shmee??

[@thomasbailey4139]

Double wishbone in the front now. Can’t wait to drive one. The last G63 I drove was almost scary to floor it haha

[@TheQuikvoodoo]

Very iconic g class

[@franksteinmann6926]

They did a great job reengineering the G-Class - but it wasn't me if I had nothing to complain: I'd love if all V8 engines would receive the new ISG system with 48 Volts (so that it would be exactly one volt to every valve!), and I miss a panoramic sunroof and fully electrically and ventilated independent rear seats, and I'm not sure if the optional Multibeam LED Headlights features the Ultra Range functionality (650 m high beam) - or if maybe even their latest Digital Light will be made available. But since a Maybach variant of the G-Class is confirmed, my guess is we'll see all of that quite soon! Furthermore, a short-wheelbase convertible G-Class or even a long-wheelbase Landaulet and maybe a new 6x6 could fill the holes in the garages of so many car enthusiasts - and who knows, maybe I'd even sign myself in!

[@danielhale8463]

Great video, what are the towing specs

[@fraserlewington7570]

The G- 63 has been my favourite car for 7-8 years now. Thanks for the good review , As you touch on some of the most little important things that matter Thank you dude It’s my dream car!!! Shmee150

[@gianhet]

Wow that offroad part was incredible :o

[@Shmee150]

I honestly couldn't believe what it was capable of

[@gianhet]

As much as I liked the older generations of G class, this one seems to be on another level

[@julianfeldmann7318]

I wonder how many rear seat passengers have been burnt by the side tail pipes! 😖nevertheless, great video tim

[@Shmee150]

What a problem to have! They are actually just back underneath the step so that shouldn't happen unless your leg bends in a strange way

[@E9X330]

Julian Feldmann I have stood directly next to them while that thing hit the Rev limiter, it's in no way hot

[@julianfeldmann7318]

Shmee150 thanks for the response, right, I understand now haha I guess it’s not a flame spitting aventador SVR at the end of the day 😬

[@mmlopez3499]

Great video coverage and presentation. Well done. Thanks for sharing. I think I'll go and test drive one... perhaps buy one ;)))

[@shombiedixon7017]

I love These Things

[@vroompaa3333]

220kph I'm sure it gets there fast but imagine if a VW Polo overtakes you 😒😒

[@robertschafer5547]

Vroom Paa Most buyers probably wont ever go that fast ...

[@HDvroom10]

Fantastic review!!👍👏🏽😎

[@cnmperformance8414]

Such an amazing car!!!😍😎🔥

[@janiKILLudek]

Love this New G :)

[@christielombard7357]

Great review Shmee....I will take one in silver please !?

[@dxutube]

...Yes get a trailer, would be amazing roadtrip capabilities.

[@Jackj28]

My New G-63 will be here in September of this year!!!!! Yay 😁😁😁

[@terryroe2023]

It's a monster BUT reminds me of a box on wheels AND rather a very expensive one at that!

[@albertdesalvo7273]

Excellent review. BTW, the bubbling noise from the exhaust was made by it being underwater and not from being hot!

[@abersuwem7449]

outstanding G-class. Mercedes always got it honestly am short of words all credits to this vehicle. i don't know if am the only one who noticed this it really feels like Mercedes had some of the interior done for them by Ford or they just simply copied. If you take a close look at the design for the window control buttons on the driver side and the brand name carrier on the front of both chairs in the front of the vehicle, if you compare them to that of the 2017 Ford F-150 platinum they all look the same i mean it can't be a coincidence that both the bran name carrier on the chairs and the window control buttons look the same.

[@michaelsieber98]

I love this car so much! You should totally get one

[@JDR1971]

I really like that matte silver.
