- An odd listing for a wild Mercedes-AMG G63 has been posted in Ukraine.
- On first impressions, this eight-wheeled G-Class looks like the real deal.
- While this G may look genuine, appearances can often be deceiving.
Brabus has built some properly excessive machines from the Mercedes-AMG G63 over the years, but this eight-wheeled camper asks a different question entirely. A listing for the thing surfaced online recently, and the obvious question follows. Is it real, or just another convincing slice of AI fiction?
The post originates from a popular Ukrainian Instagram account that deals in used cars. Mostly normal stuff. Then the scroll goes sideways. You get the odd curveball, like a BMW X5 Convertible or this insane eight-wheel G-Class mobile-home, supposedly yours for just $285,000.
That’s the kind of sum you’d expect to pay for a regular G63, not one that has been as heavily modified. If this thing were real, we have no doubt the the fabrication alone would push the price far beyond that figure.

From the outside, the images look quite authentic, and they even fooled some of the AI image detectors we used. However, others almost definitely state this is the work of AI. Adding credence to this is the fact that the Instagram page includes some questionable listings, including one for a 2026 Volkswagen Passat R, which doesn’t even exist.
The Brabus G-Class shown here retains only the original front section; behind the front doors, it’s been converted into an RV with two extra axles, making it an eight-wheeler. Mercedes famously built a six-wheeled G-Class, but never built an eight-wheeled version.
Carbon Galore In The Cabin
A look inside the cabin reveals what appears to be a very spacious and luxurious interior, filled with black Alcantara and carbon fiber, including the bathroom door, drawers, the kitchen bench, and a number of other parts.
Perhaps the most obvious giveaway that this is the work of AI appears in the text on a large touchscreen control panel in the cab. While it looks mostly accurate, it misspells “battery,” inserting an odd-shaped character between the r and the y, a telltale sign of an AI-generated image.
While this thing is fake, it does make us wonder if an existing G-Class owner may attempt to commission a vehicle like this one, as it looks like quite impressive. While we wouldn’t bet on it, we’ve seen stranger things happen over the years, so never say never, right?
