Mercedes-AMG G 63 has a special version in honor of the famous pilot

Atelier HOF (formerly Hofele) showed a project of an SUV with the index “1955”. The special whale commemorates the anniversary of Stirling Moss’ victory in the 1955 Mille Miglia endurance race. The British driver crossed the finish line first in Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR number 722; This is exactly the number depicted on the sides of the Gelika. The circulation is limited to ten pieces.

Saying goodbye to world motorsport legend Stirling Moss

The Mercedes-AMG G 63 from HOF inherited the traditional carbon body kit with different bumpers, wheel arch extensions and hood, and the wheels and exhaust system also changed. The craftsmen relied on carbon fiber wheels with a diameter of 24 inches and removed the Mercedes-Benz and AMG logos. The interior is upholstered in checkered fabric and blue leather, the steering wheel has a wooden insert, and there is a starry sky on the ceiling.

The V8 turbo engine has been boosted from 585 to 722 horsepower, and torque has increased from 850 to 950 Nm. The maximum speed will be 240 km/h (instead of 220 km/h). The inscription “722” and special decor on the headrests and front panel will remind you of the exclusive series. The price of the super SUV in honor of Stirling Moss has not been specified, but taking into account the circulation, you need to be prepared for around half a million dollars.

The fastest Mercedes G-Class presented: 1063 power and steering wheel

Two weeks ago, the HOF tuning studio prepared a similar 1063-horsepower Gelik in honor of Sir Lewis Hamilton. Then the special version marked the end of the Briton’s career at Mercedes-AMG: the seven-time champion will move to Ferrari in 2025, and for the first time in Formula 1 he will compete in a car without a Mercedes-Benz engine.

Nothing sacred: particularly sophisticated tuning of the G-Class
