Due in the middle of 2011, the next-gen ML is still largely a matter of speculation. Spy shots of an early prototype reveal a smaller body than the current ML, though the wheelbase appears unchanged. These latest shots reveal the high-performance 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG variant.
Almost certain to pick up the performance division’s new twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V-8, the speedy SUV will be called the ML63 AMG and will likely be launched soon after the standard version next year. The new V-8 engine produces more power and torque than AMG’s current 6.2-liter naturally aspirated mill, with output peaking at 544 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque. However, an available Performance Pack will see output increased to 571 horsepower and 664 pound-feet of torque thanks to additional boost pressure from the turbos.
