Posaidon is a German tuning company that decided to provide a full power kit for the Mercedes G63 AMG. The German SUV is already quite powerful, hence the AMG badge, but what specialists from Posaidon managed to do, takes the whole thing to a new level.

First off, we will start with the standard figures, namely the stock 5.5-liter V8 that delivers 544 horses and 760 Nm of torque for a 0-100 km/h sprint in 5,4 seconds.

These impressive figures are smashed by Posaidon as after replacing the turbochargers and providing other tweaks such as a new ECU, high-performance intercooler, custom sports exhaust and new air intake, the German SUV is way more powerful. In fact, the 5.5-liter V8 with the new turbochargers deliver 830 horsepower and 1,350 Nm of torque.

With such a boost and an improved seven-speed 7G-Tronic gearbox, the 0-100 km/h acceleration is now possible in just 4,2 seconds.

With this tuning kit from Posaidon, the Mercedes G63 AMG is now one of the quickest SUV models around. It is noteworthy that the German tuner took care of other components such as the gearbox and upgraded them accordingly to the power figures. Pricing and availability details on the Mercedes G63 AMG by Posaidon are expected to be released soon.
