Mercedes-AMG G 63 'Collector's Edition' India Launch On June 12
Mercedes-Benz India is going to launch a special version of the AMG G63 called the "Collector's Edition" on June 12. This iteration of the SUV will be specifically designed for India and will pay tribute to the country's landscape. It has been developed by the joint efforts of Mercedes-Benz India and Mercedes-Benz Research and Development India. As of now, the brand has refrained from divulging any details of the vehicle. These are expected to be revealed as we approach closer to the launch event. Based on the teaser image revealed by the German automaker, the SUV with the legendary name will have a bright paint in this iteration with silver wheels. Meanwhile, the overall silhouette of the SUV remains the same as the version on sale in the country. It continues to have its boxy design with the unique appeal associated with the name. Also Read: BMW i7 Buyers To Get Free Registration Under Brand's New Uniform Price Policy Currently, there is no teaser image available that reveals specifics about the cabin. It is anticipated that the list of features and the layout of the cabin will stay the same as well. The 2025 G 63 includes the new-generation MBUX infotainment system, which is similar to that found in the facelifted GLS. This system boasts a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen along with a digital instrument cluster of the same size. However, the new 'Collector's Edition' of the Mercedes-AMG G 63 is likely to introduce a new cabin theme that aligns with the Indian theme. Additionally, the selection of materials used for the interior lining and upholstery may undergo some modifications, considering it is a 'Collector's Edition' model. The G 63 is equipped with a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine that generates 577 hp and 850 Nm of torque, distributing power to all four wheels through a 9-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The power output for the 'Collector's Edition' is expected to remain the same. Similarly, there shouldn't be any alterations to the features available with the G 63. The base price for the standard G 63 is Rs 3.64 crore (ex-showroom, India), and we believe the 'Collector's Edition' will come with a substantial premium due to its limited availability.

Warning Light Flaw Prompts Mercedes-Benz Recall of 6,247 Cars
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Three models of newer Mercedes-Benz vehicles were recently recalled in the United States due to possible warning light malfunctions impacting an estimated 6,247 vehicles, according to an April 17 notice issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Newsweek reached out to Mercedes-Benz for comment. Why It Matters NHTSA says the recall follows concerns regarding the vehicles' electronic stability programs (ESP) potentially displaying incorrect warning lights during ESP system failure. The issue, which could affect thousands of drivers plus their vehicle occupants, may not pose an immediate hazard. However, experts warn that the light continuously remaining on could indicate that stability and control could be compromised—notably on slick or slippery roads and during certain conditions. An incorrectly displayed warning light may also fail to alert the driver to critical safety information, increasing the risk of a crash. What To Know Mercedes-Benz recalled certain 2025 G 550, G 580, and AMG G 63 vehicles—all of which are 2025 models—for failing to comply with requirements set by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. All 6,247 vehicles were manufactured in Jacksonville, Florida, according to records. Of that total, 3,070 vehicles are G 550 models; 1,507 are G 580; and 1,670 are Mercedes AMG G 63. All models were produced between December 14, 2023, and January 28, 2025. Records indicate that the issue was first raised by an automotive supplier in October 2024. An internal analysis followed to assess the potential implications, going hand-in-hand with updated software developed and introduced into production in December 2024. Analysis was ongoing until last month, which included testing of specific fault cases where warning lights remained displayed. That was synonymous with an internal effort by Mercedes to rework vehicles still in their possession. On April 11, at Mercedes' discretion, they decided to conduct a recall to fix the faulty ESP control unit software. Stock image.

Getty Images What People Are Saying The NHTSA recall report reads: "In the event of an independent hardware failure of the ESP system, certain functions of the system (e.g. ESP, ABS, recuperation) would be deactivated. The driver would be made aware of the issue via warning telltales in the instrument cluster, however, the displayed warning telltales might not accurately represent the deactivated function." It added: "Furthermore, in the event of a deactivated recuperation system, the respective malfunction indicator lamp might not be activated as to incorrect warning telltales in the instrument cluster, an increased risk of a crash cannot be ruled out." What Happens Next? Individuals with any of the models being recalled are instructed to take their vehicles to an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer, which will update the ESP control unit software on the affected vehicles free of charge. Vehicle makes and models not mentioned have the correct software and should not be concerned. Owners can check on their models by visiting and entering their vehicle's 17-character VIN. Mercedes-Benz says that a change in the production procedure of their supplier ensures that the issue would no longer occur from January 29, 2025, and onward.
