AUTOart 1/18 Scale Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6X6 (Red)

AUTOart 1/18 scale composite model.

The Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG 6X6, announced in 2013, is, as its name suggests, a pickup model based on the G63 AMG, with an extended wheelbase and modified for six-wheel all-wheel drive. This monster-sized body measures 5.9 meters long, 2.1 meters wide, and 2.3 meters high, weighing approximately 3.85 tons, and is equipped with the same 5.5-liter V8 DOHC twin-turbo engine as the G63 AMG, producing a maximum output of 544 horsepower. A world first for a passenger car, it features a tire pressure adjustment system that allows tire pressure on all six wheels to be adjusted from the cabin in just 20 seconds, from desert terrain to paved roads. The three axles can be independently adjusted, ensuring a ground clearance of 460 mm. Military-derived technology, including the six-wheel drive train, is incorporated throughout.

This 1/18 scale model stands out with its impressive overall length of approximately 330mm. In addition to opening and closing doors, you can also enjoy the movable suspension.

The Auto Art Composite Model uses a proprietary blend of ABS for the body and die-cast for the inner body.

Making the most of the advantages of each material, this completely new, innovative model car achieves high rigidity and a sense of weight that is on par with die-cast models, while reproducing stunningly realistic, sharp body lines and allowing for more precise alignment and opening and closing of parts than a die-cast body.
