Mercedes-Benz G 400 d from Korea: diesel W463 and its differences from the G 63 AMG

The Mercedes-Benz G 400 d from South Korea is a diesel G-Class W463. In the price example below, the car of the year is 2023. Comparison with the petrol G 63 AMG of the same generation helps to understand the difference in engines and standard wheels without expecting that the two versions will be the same in character.

Power and torque

The G 400 d is equipped with a 2.9-liter diesel engine with 330 hp and 700 Nm, a nine-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The G 63 AMG of the same range has a 4.0-liter petrol engine with 585 hp and 850 Nm.

The G 63 AMG has about 1.8 times more power, and engine torque is about a fifth higher: 850 Nm versus 700. These are two different indicators. They can be used to compare motors, but the engine torque itself does not show the traction force on the wheels.

Wheels and tyres

The standard tyres sizes in this comparison are 265/60 R18 for the G 400 d and 275/50 R20 for the G 63 AMG. The diesel version has a smaller disc diameter and a larger nominal sidewall height: 159 mm versus about 138 mm. These values are calculated from the tyres markings and explain the difference in profile, but do not replace checking the installed wheels.

In a used G-class, the wheels could be replaced. The size of the wheels and tyres should be looked at on the selected car, even if its version is already known.

Price benchmark

For a 2023 Mercedes-Benz G 400 d from South Korea with a mileage of 21,200 km, the cost to Vladivostok in the example of September 2, 2025 was 12,412,580 rubles. This is the amount for a specific offer on the specified date. The current cost of the selected car is calculated separately.

How the order works is described on the page of cars from Korea, and the generations and versions of the G-Class can be compared on the model page in the catalog.
