2022 G 63 4x4² Order Guide
#26
When are the 4x4² expected to start being delivered in the US? Asked two dealers for an allocation yesterday and they will get back to me tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be able to secure one. In terms of suspension, I know that they will have portal axles. Is that in addition to what the current G63 has? So the 4x4² will still have the independent double wishbone suspension? Or will it go back to the previous gen suspension? Sorry for the dumb question but trying to figure out how the handling of the new truck will be affected.
Thanks
Thanks

Spoke to my Salesman at Duluth GA Dealership yesterday. He says this Beast will be extremely Limited. Too bad retired in 2019...would definitely get on a List for this Holy Grail!

So maybe this is a hot take, but who else thinks this is a lot less butch than the G550 4x4? Maybe it’s got the 63 engine, but I think it’s shorter, narrower (at least the fender flares are smaller) and the raw new body style is less agro than the old one (curvier, etc ). Plus the roof rack pack seems a little ……….. a little trying too hard.

I spoke to someone last week that said as of now the US production # is in the 300s. I forget the exact # he said but I do remember him saying there’s 3?? dealerships and the production # is less then the amount of US dealerships. I’m the first on a list but i’m also low on the “totem pole” vs some of their other clients. Also said up to the GM how they pick depending on number of allocations they get.

Mercedes run their prototypes where I live so I've actually had the chance of seeing one a little while back. (the new G63 4x4)

Received my allocation yesterday, my dealer is only receiving 1. They are due to arrive December 2022. Most dealers will get only 1 as there is a confirmed 300 coming to US and about 380 or so dealers. My guy(manager) told me MSRP is 350+ and I really hope he is incorrect. Not including the dealer markup either. I will still take it and hope its the last of its kind and prices go up. One last thing he told me was that I would have to sign a document not allowing me to sell the car for 1 year minimum. Now to build it so many colors to choose it will be a tough decision.

Ahh....hopefully I can get one as well. already paid 95K over for my current 21 G63. So the shock of paying 100k over msrp will already have been experienced haha

My dealer (which is one of the largest in the country) hasn’t gotten any official allocations yet. Maybe it’s a timing thing but I also want to make sure you’re not being misled.

are you sure you got an allocation rather than an indication that you will get it when they get it?

I was thankfully able to get my '21 G63 @ 40k over so not too bad. I expect to pay double that for this one. At minimum.

I have heard other rumors of more than 300 being made - which was 325 being made in '22 and 850 in '23. My good friend told me this and the source was the actual MB North America rep. Info directly off his laptop.
My friend is a big customer at this dealer - but he still cant get one due to the fact he's 2nd in line there behind the owner or ceo of PC Richard. Again this is what I was told, i'm sure there are varying reports and info out there.
