VAETH G55 AMG - a Superlative V58k with 680 hp

More power and fun of ride has VAETH for the rare G55 AMG model. A G-class model wîth 680 hp and 840 Nm! Is it possible? VAETH AÚTOMOBILTECHNIK has made G55, a model of an absolute force. The G-class model charms wîth its edged lines and its sports and athletic appearance. Also in this case, the VAETH AÚTOMOBILTECHNIK creators have implemented a lot of new ideas.

Besides the fine tuning, the engine reconstruction comprehends an intake manifold, a complete outlet system, coolers, as well as the patented VAETH fuel cooler, all that let the hp monster reach the 265 km/h mark!

Attention is drawn especially to the modifications of the front section. The bonnet and the front spoiler wîth extra big air intakes, LED daylight lamps and Xenon units in the fog-lights contribute to a sportive, eye-catching design of a strong V58k G-class model. The rear looks bulky and forms together wîth the sports exhaust system visible on both sides a perfect symbiosis. Sports appearance created by the VAETH is powered additionally by the complete 'Race Edition' foliation.

Fully lowered by 35 mm, the G-class model together wîth its sports shock absorbers grant you a real feeling. The extravagant VAETH light metal rims in 10x22'' wîth 295/35R22 Yokohama ADV ST air tires underline the sportive power packet once more.

The interior is decorated by carbon applications, there is a speedometer reaching up to 330 km/h, an Alcantara covered sports §teering wheel and everything is covered by the leather. The multimedia system tops the ensemble.
