AMG V8 Performance SUV Premium touring

Loud, fast, and ridiculously fun — the AMG way.

The Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S is our “make the trip unforgettable” SUV. Brutal V8 power, premium comfort, and the kind of road presence that turns a South Island drive into a proper event.

If you want a car that feels special every single time you start it, this is it. It’s equally happy cruising in comfort or lighting up a twisty road out of Christchurch. Big performance. Big smiles.
