As with any AMG model, the GLE 63 features an aggressive body kit that is characterized by wider wheel arches, large air vents, 20-inch AMG rims, deep bumpers and side skirts, and a sweet AMG exhaust system with a quartet of tailpipes. Inside, expect the GLE 63 to be upholstered in a mix of Alcantara and leather, trimmed with options like Carbon fiber and wood, and feature a dynamic instrument cluster.

Reports speculate that the X6 M-rival could be powered by AMG's 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 unit.

However, Mercedes-AMG have still not confirmed the powerplant under the hood of the GLE 63. Reports speculate that the X6 M-rival could be powered by the 4.0-liter twin turbo V8 unit sourced from the AMG GT. If so, it may be offered in two flavors: a standard 462 bhp variant similar to the AMG GT, and a more powerful "S" variant that could produce 510 bhp, like in the C63 S.
