Never a brand to take the backseat approach–Mercedes-Benz is challenging others in the SUV arena with the rather robust AMG coupe. This luxury beast is pulsating with power and holds true to that distinctive brand curb appeal we all love so much. The Mercedes-Benz AMG GLE63 is being called a coupe, but has an interesting blend of an SUV and a coupe.

It is simply not sufficient to offer a premium vehicle on the market these days—it must also offer plenty in the performance arena. The idea of a performance SUV was not all that huge in the past, with brands like Land Rover pretty much dominating and handling that area. Now, more contenders are entering the arena with their fuel efficient, luxurious and performance-driven SUV offerings and things are fueled up for pure exhilaration for the foreseeable future.

The 2016 Mercedes-AMG GLE63 at a glance:

• Power is produced via a 5.5-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine pushing forth 577 horses
• The vehicle is being billed as the perfect combination of a sports coupe and SUV—a perhaps unprecedented maneuver that certainly serves to add some distinction and garner attention
• It can reach 60 miles per hour from not in just 4.3 seconds
• This vessel is electronically limited to 155 miles per hour, perhaps to stave off the temptation and prevent dangerous driving

Overall, from the slightly larger signature Mercedes-Benz grill down to the impressive engine, the AMG GLE63 is a remarkable creature. It will be impossible to confuse her with any of her siblings, and that gorgeous AMG badging goes a long way toward communicating her powerful pedigree. The brand has been busy touting the new line at automotive shows and events around the globe, with the AMG GLE63 and AMG GLE63 S taking center stage in regards to interest levels.
