18-Year Old Mahindra Scorpio Transformed Into Mercedes G63 AMG 6X6 [Video]
When it comes to one of the craziest vehicles ever produced by Mercedes-Benz, the G63 AMG 6X6 tops the list. For those who may not be aware, the German luxury automotive giant gave the G63 AMG steroids and added a third axle to it, making it 6X6. Today, the original G63 6X6 is priced at Rs 8.5 crore. So, naturally, not everyone can afford it. However, there is a G63 6X6 replica for sale which is based on a 2010 Mahindra Scorpio. Here is a video of this unique build.
The detailed video walkaround of the Mahindra Scorpio-based G63 AMG 6X6 replica has been shared on YouTube by Magneto 11 on their channel. It starts off with the host of this channel introducing this particular G63 6X6 replica. He states that this vehicle is based on a 2010 Mahindra Scorpio.
