HOF “Sir Class”: A 1,063 hp tribute to Lewis Hamilton
Seven-time world champion Sir Lewis Hamilton is set to leave the F1 Mercedes-AMG Petronas team after the conclusion of the 2024 season.
Inspired by the greatness displayed by Sir Lewis Hamilton, a tuning company from Germany, HOF, has produced a custom G-Wagen named “Sir Class.”
Using the G63 AMG as the base, the factory-standard 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine has been modified with high-performance components such as connecting rods, forged aluminum pistons, turbocharger units, and an aluminum airbox.
With a recalibrated ECU, the V8 engine now generates an impressive 1,063 hp and 1,300 Nm of torque.
This power allows the vehicle to achieve a top speed of 299 km/h.
Additionally, HOF has matched the vehicle with a new coil suspension system that lowers the ground clearance by 1.2 inches, thereby enhancing aerodynamics and handling.
A carbon ceramic braking system is also employed to ensure the vehicle stops effectively.
The overall body of this square SUV is finished in a color inspired by the Silver Arrows, featuring Petronas green accents in several places, with a rather unique carbon fiber body kit.
In the cabin, green Petronas accent trims complement bucket seats, enhanced by the use of leather and Alcantara materials, along with a “Starry Sky Ceiling” feature.
Meanwhile, the steering wheel has been replaced with a rectangular unit reminiscent of a Formula 1 steering wheel.
Only 11 units of the “Sir Class” will be produced, each priced at £540,000 (approximately RM3.05 million).
Someone who loves driving manual cars but prefers riding an automatic scooter. Maybe it's an age thing.
