When MS Dhoni was last seen driving his brand-new Mercedes-AMG G63, the unique license plate really grabbed everyone's attention.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni, a cricket player, is an avid enthusiast and has an amazing collection of both new and old cars in his garage. The former captain of the Indian cricket team, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, is known for being an auto enthusiast's paradise, and he recently added a new icon to his garage. Recently, MS Dhoni was seen operating his brand-new Mercedes-AMG G63. But the unique license plate on the car was what really grabbed everyone's attention.

Before the options package, the Mercedes-AMG G63 is priced starting at INR 3.3 crore (ex-showroom, India). Dhoni chose the Emerald Green color, but the Gelandewagen with AMG tuning is covered in satin black vinyl. Additionally, the SUV receives a Trail Package that includes thicker rubber and unique 20-inch alloy wheels. Additionally, the AMG Ride Control off-road suspension is optimized.

Dhoni's G63 AMG is remarkable in and of itself, but it also has the registration number "0007." But it's more likely the 42-year-old sports legend's jersey number than his love for "James Bond."

The Mercedes-AMG G63's 4.0-liter bi-turbo V8 engine, which produces 576 horsepower and a maximum torque of 860 Nm, is mated to a 9-speed AMG SpeedShift transmission. The SUV's four wheels are powered. With a top speed of 220 kmph, the AMG-tuned G-Wagen can accelerate from 0 to 100 kmph in 4.5 seconds. The AMG Driver's Package is an option available to owners, increasing the maximum speed to 240 kmph.

Since going on sale in 2018, the Mercedes-AMG G63 has been equipped with all the modern conveniences that come with an SUV, such as LED headlamps, dual screens with the MBUX user interface, Alcantara leather, AMG seats, and more. The SUV's recognizable boxy silhouette is still present.

Dhoni's final cricket match was with the Chennai Super Kings in the 2023 Indian Premier League. The team's devoted cricket supporters refer to him as "Thalaivaa," and he has not yet confirmed that he will be a member of the 2024 CSK roster. The cricket player is currently healing from a knee injury he suffered earlier in the year.

The Land Rover Freelander 2, which can be seen in the video, the Land Rover Defender, the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, the Land Rover Series III, and an older Land Rover with a Kahn-X grille are among the numerous SUVs in Dhoni's garage that now include the new G63 AMG. The cricket player has been seen driving the same vintage vehicle on numerous occasions and also owns several others.
