The Week's Most Important Car Numbers
From an expensive Alfa Romeo to a quick Mercedes SUV, these are the most important numbers of the week.
Khodrocar - Numbers are all around us – whether we're breaking down the performance of a Ferrari 488, or comparing the price of a Model S to a Mercedes. Every week we pick out a few numbers that are so significant we have to give them a second look. Today we’re looking at key figures from Mercedes-AMG, BMW, Alfa Romeo, and more.
0.9
By how much time, in seconds, the new Mercedes-AMG G63 is quicker to hit 60 miles per hour than its predecessor. The new super-box-on-wheels packs 577 horsepower, a 14-hp gain over the last G63, but weighs an impressive 375 pounds less.

How many years it took BMW’s plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina, to build 200,000 units of the X4 crossover. The milestone comes as BMW introduces the refreshed X4, which has a new look and plenty of mechanical changes beneath the skin.
38,000
How much more you’ll pay, in dollars, for the 505-hp Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio versus the base, 280-hp Stelvio. Granted, those figures are before options, and the hot Stelvio has plenty of other upgrades – and an impressive Nürburgring time of 7:51.7 – to make it worth the extra cost.
60 million
That's today's value, in dollars, of three cars that famously crashed in 1962, when a Ferrari 250 GTO and a 250 SWB tangled with '2 VEV' – the Aston Martin just revealed as the star car at this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed auction.
