LEGO launches new Speed Champions sets: Mercedes-AMG, Lamborghini & more
LEGOLEGO has unboxed a trio of new LEGO Speed Champions sets. Here are the highlights of each set, how much they cost, and where you can buy them.
Following the retirement of several LEGO Speed Champions models in 2023, LEGO launched a quartet of new LEGO Speed Champions kits at the start of 2024. Now, three more have joined LEGO’s Speed Champions garage.
The new sets include brick-built replicas of Aston Martins, Mercedes-AMGs, and a LEGO-reimagined Lamborghini.

This year, LEGO already released a couple of Mercedes-AMG-inspired models, most notably two LEGO Technic models based on the Three-pointed Star brand’s W14 F1 E Performance race car.
However, for those who aren’t into F1 but still want to show their adoration for the Affalterbach-based brand through LEGO bricks, this kit will allow you to do just that. It comprises not one, but two builds of iconic AMGs, the G 63 and the new SL 63.
In addition, this LEGO Speed Champions set comprises the most pieces of any Speed Champions kit you can buy. Its brick count of 808 overshadows that of the BMW M4 GT3 & BMW M Hybrid V8 Race Cars set by 132 pieces. As such, this makes it a great kit since you can share the building fun with a fellow Mercedes enthusiast.
Staying true to the original design of these two AMGs, the G-Class model has a distinct boxy shape, while the SL’s roof is opened, as it should be with a roadster. In addition, both models feature the AMG-specific Panamericana grille. The set also comes with two minifigures.

Bar the Mercedes-AMG-inspired LEGO Technic F1 race cars LEGO released earlier this year, a few other F1-based builds were launched. This includes a Speed Champions version of McLaren’s 2023 F1 competitor and the spectacular LEGO Icons McLaren MP4/4.
LEGO has now released a brick-built model of another F1 outfit’s race car. It comes in the shape of the Aston Martin AMR23.
However, this set comprises not only the UK F1 team’s racer from the previous F1 season. In addition to the AMR23, the set includes a model based on the Aston Martin Vantage F1 safety car.
Although small in scale, both models remain faithful to the originals. Both models’ bricks are finished in the Gaydon-based brand’s signature green hue. In addition, the AMR23 model gains the real-life racer’s livery, front and rear wings, and accurate wheels and tires. The Vantage Safety Car replica is fitted with a light bar and rear wing. A duo of minifigures is included.

LEGO-reimagined Lamborghinis are extremely popular, especially the spectacular LEGO Technic Lamborghini Sián FKP 37. However, if you’re looking for something smaller in scale, here are two other brick-built Raging Bulls — the LEGO Speed Champions Lamborghini Countach and the kit you see here.
This LEGO Speed Champions set recreates the Italian marque’s Vision GT concept car, which features in the Gran Turismo video game, to a T. The model’s bodywork is pencil-sharp, and there’s a split rear wing and dual exhaust pipes. The wheels also remain faithful to the original model.
In addition, lifting the windshield reveals a cockpit for the minifigure that’s included with this set. The completed model measures one-and-a-half inches tall, two-and-a-half inches wide, and six inches in length.
