Mercedes‑AMG updates the GLE 63 S and GLS 63 with a new M177 EVO 4.0L twin‑turbo V8 featuring a flat‑plane crank, delivering 603 hp and 627 lb-ft, plus a 48V mild-hybrid system adding 23 hp and 151 lb-ft. Paired with a nine‑speed AMG Speedshift, 4Matic+ AWD, and Ride Control+ air suspension, the duo hit 0–60 mph in about 3.6 seconds (GLE) and 3.9 seconds (GLS) with a top speed of 174 mph; visuals are subtle, and pricing remains unannounced.
