The G55 AMG.
Handcrafted horsepower.
One man, one engine. Beyond all the racing trophies earned in the storied legacy
of AMG —the high-performance arm of Mercedes -Benz —one small plaque tells an
even greater story. Affixed atop each AMG engine, it bears the signature of the
single master technician who assembled it from race -proven components with his
own hands. The superlatively engineered vehicle which houses this engine will go
forth to achieve imposing results in virtually every dimension of performance. But
no matter what numbers it generates —horsepower and pound -feet, mph and rpm,
or seconds and g’s—every measure of a G55 AMG starts with“one.”
AMG-developed 5.5-liter V-8. A hand-built vehicle with a handcrafted heart, the supercharged,
liquid-to-air intercooled V-8 of the G55 AMG outpours an even 500 hp @ 6,100 rpm, and an even
more torrential 516 lb-ft of torque @ 2,700–4,000 rpm. Accompanied by the unmistakable rumble
of a true dual-sidepipe AMG exhaust system, 60 mph arrives in a lightning-quick 5.4 seconds.

Reinforced transmission. The AMG-calibrated 5-speed automatic transmission easily manages
the copious torque output of the G55 AMG engine. Driver-adaptive programming delivers crisp
shifts, while Touch Shift control allows manual-style shifting. A “Shift into Optimum Gear” feature
provides direct downshifting to the ideal gear for passing or engine-braking down steep inclines.
Enlarged brakes and wheels. Massive 4-wheel ventilated disc brakes feature 13.8" composite
discs in front and13.0" discs at the rear. Lightweight, highly rigid 19×9.5" AMG 5- spoke aluminum-
alloy wheels fill the exclusive flared wheel arches with beefy 275/55 R19 all- season tires.
Exquisitely finished. The G55 AMG is fully equipped, with only color and trim requiring your
selection. Hand-stitched designo leather and hand-selected designo Natural Maple wood enrich
the cabin, while paint choices include four exclusive designo colors in gloss or matte finishes.
