Hennessey VelociRaptor 6x6 vs Mercedes Benz G63 AMG 6x6

After its presentation at SEMA in October, Hennessey announced that it will start the production of 50 VelociRaptor 6x6 each one costing $349,000. The truck is based on a 2018 Ford F150 Raptor with two rear locking axles, upgraded suspension, 20 inch wheels, roll bar and off-road LED lights. You can get also an upgraded Brembo braking system for an additional $22,000. The engine is a 3.5 liter twin-turbo V6 producing 602 hp and 843 Nm (622 lb-ft) of torque.

This car might just be the right competitor for the Mercedes Benz G63 AMG 6x6 which comes with a twin-turbo 5.5 liter V8 producing 536 hp and 760 Nm (561 lb-ft) of torque. The German truck also features "portal" axles to increase ground clearance and five electronic differential locks. The VelociRaptor surely has more power and torque but it is built with aftermarket parts while the G63 AMG is all made by Mercedes Benz so the quality is very high as well as the price which is over $900,000. Which one is the best in your opinion? Tell us in the comments!

Both are great but having the money would go for the raptor.

First of all, the G63 has 700HP not 563. Second the Ford is a huge waste of money. It's literally just a standard $75,000 Ford raptor with a box that's 2 feet longer and has an extra axle. The G63 is a hand-built Mercedes-quality super truck. I would do AMX 100%
