The Mercedes-AMG GLC 63 S will be launched locally at the end of May.

It seems like it’s going to be quite the riot, as it’s already setting records in Europe. It recently broke the lap record for SUV at the Sachsenring, besting the Porsche Cayenne Turbo. If the news reports are to be believed, Mercedes has now set its sights on the Nurburgring, hoping to set a new record there as well.

The GLC 63 S develops 375kW and 700Nm of torque from its 4.0-litre biturbo V8 petrol engine.
