If the regular Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 is
considered a ‘super SUV’, then what would you call one with more power under
its hood than a Porsche 918 Spyder? Modified by Wheelsandmore, the beast you
see here boasts up to 907 HP and 1,150 Nm of
torque from the 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8, thanks to modified turbos, new engine
software and a slew of other upgrades.
You will have to shell out € 42,016
(US$ 49,470) for this Stage 4 tune, with the company also offering three more
options. The next one is the € 31,092 (US$ 36,608) Stage 3 kit which unleashes 848
HP and 1,150 Nm. Stage 2, on the other hand, will
cost you € 16,806 (US$ 19,787), and frees up 789 HP and 1,040 Nm, while also removing the speed limiter, which allows the GLE AMG 63
to hit up to 320 km/h when fitted with the appropriate tires.
For the basic Stage 1, you are looking at
€ 2,200 (US$ 2,590), and it promises 690-700 HP in the
regular and S models, respectively, along with 950 Nm of peak
torque. As a reminder, the twin-turbo
4.0-liter V8 engine steams out 563 HP and 750 Nm in the regular GLE 63 and 603 HP and 850 Nm in
the GLE 63 S. The former needs 4.0 seconds to hit 100 km/h from a
standstill, and the latter 3.8 seconds.
Now, the tuner isn’t called Wheelsandmore
for nothing, as they took care of the other aspect too. As a result, those who
are not satisfied with the rims offered by Mercedes-AMG can go ahead and order
the 10.5×24-inch front and 12.5×24-inch rear wheels shown on the pictured car,
shod in 295/30 and 355/25 Vredestein tires respectively. Wheelsandmore is also
working on new parts for the GLE 63, such as the new exhaust system and a
smartphone controlled module to lower the air suspension.
