How to turn a modern luxury SUV into a track monster? Give it to the nuts at AMG, who somehow transform the upright ML-Class into the unreal ML63 AMG. Powered by a 503-hp 6.2-litre engine with a seven-speed automatic and 4MATIC all-wheel drive, the Benz gets special 21-inch wheels with performance tires, upgraded shocks and springs, and a high-performance braking system means it comes to a stop with no drama. Interior features upgraded seats, and AMG badges can be found everywhere.
