1. Going against the green grain at Frankfurt – a 662 kW Brabus-massaged G-Class
"The all-new Brabus G V12 900 “One of Ten”, to give it its full title, produces a tree-stump-shredding 1 500 Nm of torque. The massive 2,6 ton SUV accelerates to 100 km/h in just 3,8 seconds and shoves air out of the way in huge volumes en route to a top speed of 280 km/h."
Electrically governed, of course! Meet the lumbering V12 Brabus G-Class, a collector's item for sure, as only 10 were produced.

4. Mercedes-AMG G63 review (2018)
"Essentially hand-built in limited volumes in Graz, Austria, the G-Class has always been very pricey. But far from putting the “G” at a marketing disadvantage, the lofty price tag has simply made it more desirable to those who could afford it. To better cater for this market segment, a succession of brawny V8 engines were introduced in the late 1990s, with the first AMG derivative arriving in 1999. And it’s been a relative smash hit ever since, to the extent that the AMG G-Class makes up the bulk of civilian sales volumes for this model range."
