Indian cricketers are known across the globe for their jaw-dropping performance and immense amounts of talent on the field. However, in recent times, the new generation of Indian cricketers is becoming famous for their expensive supercars and other luxury purchases. Recently, Shreyas Iyer, the popular right-handed batsman, made it to the headlines for customizing his newly bought Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG SUV. The cricketer bought this vehicle a while ago but recently added a Brabus kit to make it more unique.

The video of the Kolkata Knight Riders’ captain, Shreyas Iyer, driving around in his custom Brabus Mercedes-Benz G63 AMG, was shared on YouTube by CS 12 Vlogs on their channel. The video shows the cricketer’s Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen crossing the busy Marine Drive road in Mumbai multiple times. The video does not show Shreyas Iyer driving the car because it had dark black tints on the windows.

From the video, it can be noted that the car has now been wrapped in a new matte black color. Originally, Shreyas Iyer bought the car in the classy shade of Selenite Grey Metallic. Another important highlight of this recent spotting of Iyer’s G-Wagen is that this time it has been modified with the full Brabus kit. When Shreyas first bought the car, it only had the bonnet scoop finished in carbon fiber.

However, this time around, the car was seen with the Brabus roof-mounted LED DRLs that come encased in a carbon fiber piece. Additionally, the car this time around also had a rear carbon fiber spoiler as well. Now, if the spoiler is from Brabus or not, it is not confirmed, as the one that comes with the Brabus kit has a slightly different design. This particular spoiler was a lot sleeker and more aggressive.
