Mercedes G-Wagon On Budget! 

We came across a Mercedes G55 listed online. Well, this might not look like the old G55 from 2012, and there is a good reason for that. This is a 2012 G55 converted to a G63. The alphabet and numbers might confuse you, but both of these can be termed as the G-Wagons. This might be your chance to get the real G-wagon at the lowest price of Rs 67 lakh.

Looks & Features-

Featuring the conversion, this G55 with G63 is one of the most handsome SUVs out on the road. The conversion kit does not look out of place. At first glance its difficult to point out that this isn’t a G63. The aggressive red colour also adds to the character of the G-wagon. During the conversion, the owner hasn’t even missed out on the G63’s badging. 

Not just on the outside; there are major changes to the interior of this SUV as well. Along with updated infotainment, this SUV also features a new steering wheel identical to that of the G63. Also, to suit the red-hot exteriors, the interiors have been given a red-and-black theme.

Powertrain- Mercedes G-wagon On Budget

Complimenting the impressive looks is the 5.4-litre supercharged V8 under the hood. This V8 produces 507bhp and 700Nm of torque, and is paired with the 5-speed AT gearbox. One of the biggest highlights of this G-wagon is that, unlike modern SUVs, it comes with 4WD featuring three locking differentials. This configuration makes it even more capable off roads than in city traffic. Having heard of all the positive bits of the G-wagon, here’s something you should definitely know before you close this deal- 

Should You Buy One? 

Let’s admit it, this will be a very fun-to-drive and luxurious car to be with, but at what cost? This is definitely on everyone’s ride. If you’re someone looking for a pure G-wagon experience and ready to bear any expensive repair this G-wagon can throw at you, then this can be one of your considerations.  Also, the thirsty V8 is not gonna be easy on fuel, so you have to be prepared for huge fuel bills if you are considering it as a daily driver. Having heard of both sides of this listing and having 67 lakhs in spare, would you consider buying this G-wagon?
