Brabus adds more HP to the GL AMG
Excerpt: When Mercedes first revealed they’d be producing the GL63 AMG, many questioned whether or not that much power is really needed in a full-size SUV weighing some 5,800 lbs. But let’s face it – can a twin-turbocharged and intercooled DOHC 32-valve V-8 that puts out 550 hp and 560 lb-ft of torque really be wrong in any circumstance? While you may not be hitting the Nurburgring with it on a daily basis, there’s always that moment after you drop the kid’s off at soccer practice, hit the pedal and feel the 4.8 second 0-60 speed whip you back in your seat that you become completely convinced that the GL63 AMG has in every way earned the AMG badge.
As you can imagine, if some were skeptical of an AMG version of the GL, they’re likely to be even more skeptical when hearing that Brabus is coming out with a tuned version of the powerful land yacht, which they’re calling the Brabus B63 620 Widestar. But as you’ll see, Brabus, as always, did not disappoint.
