Mercedes-Benz knows how to do luxury like no other automaker, but now they're venturing into high-performance SUV territory for the first time in Mercedes-AMG history. Named "Born in Affalterbach," this mysterious SUV is close to its first test drive. There isn't much information about the SUV yet, but we have some news to share with customers.

What is Born in Affalterbach?

Mercedes-AMG has a 57-year legacy of building incredible concepts that lead the Mercedes brand forward. This high-performance SUV is no exception. Its biggest claim to fame is that it will be built in-house from the ground up. Mercedes-AMG isn't taking chances with this ambitious model. They're handling everything about the design and its components. From that standpoint, it will be one of the purest Mercedes-AMG projects in history and one that no fan should miss.

The SUV itself is the second model to be designed on the AMG.EA high-performance platform. We know that it's an all-electric model, and it's one of the most ambitious Mercedes-AMG products in history. Michael Schiebe, head of Mercedes-Benz G-Class and Mercedes-Maybach divisions, says, "SUVs have been among our most popular models for many years. With the "Born in Affalterbach" SUV, we are responding to this trend by offering our customers a truly captivating high-performance off-roader based on the AMG.EA platform."
