NEW YORK: Mercedes G63 AMG 6×6 first entered our lives in March 2014. Back then, Mercedes announced that it was building a limited number of the six-wheeled monolith, basically cutting off supply for daily Joes to score one for themselves.
Well, fret not, because it appears that Mercedes-AMG is making a fresh batch of awesome G63 AMGs, albeit with the standard four-wheel configuration. It’s admittedly not as awesome as the six-wheeled, three-axle variety, but this new version still packs quite an intimidating punch.
Our spy photographers captured the vehicle doing test runs in southern Europe, dubbing it the G63 AMG Green Monster. We’re not exactly sure that it’s the actual name of the vehicle, but the description does fit on account of the prototype’s splashy neon-green finish and its imposing posture.
All the design elements of the 6×6 appear to have been included in the Green Monster, minus the two wheels and the flatbed out. That’s not to say that the Green Monster is less frightening; it just has two less wheels to scare us with.
