For enthusiasts of premium license plates, the number 51C-888.8 is undoubtedly familiar. This coveted plate has transitioned from a Kia truck to a Ford Ranger Raptor, and its owner rejoiced, thanks to the lifetime registration law securing it for them indefinitely.
After thoroughly enjoying the Ford Ranger Raptor, the owner swiftly upgraded to another model—the Mercedes-AMG GT 53 4Matic. This four-door coupe, originally priced at 6.72 billion VND, is now available at dealerships for just over 3.8 billion VND, marking the unboxing of a brand-new, officially imported vehicle.
The 2022 Mercedes-AMG GT 53 4Matic offers a range of exterior colors, including Polar White, Obsidian Black, Graphite Gray, High-tech Silver, and the standout Spectra Blue featured in this article. Additionally, buyers can opt for the Silver Chrome Exterior package (previously exclusive to the GT 63 S), adding chrome accents to the AMG sports details.

Furthermore, the mid-cycle upgraded Mercedes-AMG GT 53 4Matic introduces two additional exterior packages: the AMG Exterior Carbon Fiber (carbon fiber details) and the AMG Night (dark chrome grille and black logo). These options can be combined to enhance the vehicle’s uniqueness and personalization.
Inside the cabin, the mid-cycle upgraded Mercedes-AMG GT 53 4Matic features notable details such as a new AMG Performance three-spoke steering wheel, wrapped in Nappa leather and DINAMICA microfiber with touch-sensitive controls.
Behind the wheel sits a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster. The 10.25-inch center infotainment screen runs the latest MBUX system, offering Bluetooth connectivity, LinguaTronic voice control activated by “Hey Mercedes,” and support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The interior also boasts gray wood trim and an Artico leather-wrapped dashboard.

The vehicle is equipped with a 9-speed automatic transmission and a full-time all-wheel-drive system, complemented by EQ Boost technology that provides an additional 22 horsepower and 250 Nm instantly, without any lag.
