HOF has unveiled the “Sir Class,” a custom Mercedes-Benz G Wagon designed to honor Lewis Hamilton as he completes his final race with the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Beyond its striking design, the Sir Class is notably the fastest G-Class ever built, pushing 1,063 hp — equal to that of the AMG One.

Echoing the aesthetics of the Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 team, the Sir Class boasts a distinctive “1063 fading paint” finish, seamlessly transitioning from black to Sterling silver. Signature Tiffany Green accents and 23” H1063 forged wheels with carbon fiber covers further connect this model to its racing roots. The lowered chassis enhances aerodynamics, offering unparalleled handling and stability.

Powered by a 4L V8 biturbo engine, the Sir Class delivers acceleration of 0-62 mph in 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 186 mph. The vehicle is equipped with a carbon-ceramic sport brake system, providing increased stopping power. Inside, the Sir Class combines high-tech materials with premium Alcántara and Nappa leather, featuring hand-stitched Tiffany Green seat patterns inspired by the Yas Marina Circuit. A Formula One-inspired steering wheel and bespoke carbon fiber elements elevate the cabin’s dynamic appeal.

HOF is now taking inquiries on the Sir Class, with more information available via its official site.
