The future Mercedes G55 AMG has been spied while it performing some winter testing in Sweden. Luckily, this prototype was dressed down enough to reveal a few more details on the exterior changes.
From these images we can see that the new G55 AMG will be fitted with new side mirrors, a revised grille and a new front bumper. The SUV will also get new wheels with a new design and an updated brake system. For the interior, Mercedes will offer a new instrument cluster, a new steering wheel, and a sat-nav screen on top of the dash as seen on the new B-Class.
Under the hood, the Mercedes G55 AMG will have a 5.4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 with around 386 kW and 700 Nm of torque. Mercedes has promised it will work on improving the fuel consumption, but they can only do so much with the boxy design and robust construction. Also rumoured to be in the works is a G65 AMG, powered by a bi-turbo 6.0-litre V12 with 463 kW and 1 000 Nm of torque.
