IS THE 2024 AMG GLS 63 SUV THE BEST LUXURY PERFORMANCE SUV DESPITE THE 6,019 LB CURB WEIGHT?

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Mercedes-AMG GLS 63 SUV is presented as the pinnacle of luxury performance SUVs, boasting a handcrafted AMG 4.0L V8 biturbo engine with hybrid assist, delivering 603 hp and 627 lb-ft of torque. The reviewer highlights its exhilarating acceleration, achieving 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds, and praises the AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel-drive system and AMG Ride Control suspension for a sporting yet comfortable driving experience, especially in Sport Plus mode. The augmented reality navigation and expansive head-up display are noted as standout technological features. While acknowledging its substantial 6,019 lb curb weight, the reviewer concludes it's a "spaceship" and a "10 out of 10" vehicle, particularly for those with large families seeking performance and luxury, though suggesting the GLE 63 S might be a better fit for smaller garages. The reviewer also mentions the impressive AMG performance exhaust sound and the availability of a third-row seat option.
