With a mighty power increase and F1-inspired style, Hof’s Sir Class SUV embodies Hamilton’s illustrious career piloting the Silver Arrow.
From AMG to Unprecedented Power
At the heart of the Sir Class lies a completely re-engineered 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine. Enhanced with forged aluminum pistons, stronger connecting rods, advanced turbos, and custom software, the engine now delivers an awe-inspiring 1,063 horsepower and 959 lb-ft of torque—nearly double the factory output. This powerhouse rockets the SUV from 0-62 mph in just 3.5 seconds, with a staggering top speed of 186 mph, making it the fastest G-Class to date.
Craftsmanship in Carbon Fiber
Hof’s work extends beyond performance, with a striking carbon fiber body kit enhancing both aesthetics and aerodynamics. New wheel arches, side skirts, and a vented carbon hood amplify the SUV’s visual impact, while a signature paint finish transitions from silver to black, echoing Mercedes-AMG’s F1 livery. Petronas teal accents grace the badges and 23-inch wheels, paying homage to Hamilton’s racing colors.
Racing Technology Meets Luxury
Inside, the Sir Class blends luxury with cutting-edge design. Teal stitching accents leather and Alcantara surfaces, while the headliner features a stitched graphic of the Yas Marina Circuit, a nod to the venue’s significance in Hamilton’s career. Adding a futuristic touch, the “Starry Sky Ceiling” mirrors Rolls-Royce’s Starlight Headliner. The centerpiece, however, is an F1-style butterfly steering wheel, crafted from carbon fiber and Alcantara—one of only two such designs across Mercedes’ lineup.
A Limited Edition for the Legacy
Hof’s Sir Class production is as exclusive as Hamilton’s achievements, with only 11 units planned—symbolizing his 11 seasons with Mercedes-AMG. Priced at $690,000, each vehicle reflects the combination of elite engineering, iconic design, and personal inspiration that defines Hamilton’s legacy.
The Final Lap
The Sir Class is more than just a vehicle; it’s a tribute to one of the greatest F1 drivers of all time. As Hamilton transitions to Ferrari, this extraordinary SUV cements his indelible mark on motorsport history while offering a tangible reminder of his triumphs, resilience, and enduring influence.
