Mercedes is already testing prototypes of next year’s all-new AMG GLE 63 high-performance SUV, but there's no need to wait as we've taken the time to make a rendering of the beast based on the latest spy shots.

With the kind of performance numbers associated with the brand’s 4.0-liter, twin-turbo, V-8, it’s definitely possible.

Regarding its look, the GLE 63 will have an aggressive front bumper, a different grille that may or may not be of the Panamericana style, wider wheel arch flares finished in black, and a different rear bumper that features the quad-exhaust associated with modern AMG cars.

To that end, I whipped up this digitally manipulated interpretation of what it might look like, taking cues from the new GLC 63, camouflaged prototypes of the GLE 63, and other current AMG models. The result is definitely close to what the vehicle will end up looking like, although some details will obviously be different.
