The Mercedes E63 AMG has been confirmed in its 6.2 litre V8 “hand-made” at 525 hp and 630 Nm, with dynamism and versatility being the key to this project. The frightening performance, with 0-100 reached in 4.5 seconds, isn’t the only focus, though.
The first example of cutting edge technology comes with the Speedshift MCT transmission at seven-speeds with paddle shift and multidisc wet clutch, previously presented on the SL63. Other features include Controlled Efficiency, Sport, Sport Plus, and Manual modes, with AMG Drive Unit and throttle-blipping function.
Chassis and suspension technology has also been updated, with an all new electronics system called AMG Ride Control, though emissions and consumption themes still take over, even with this incredibly powerful vehicle. Fuel consumption is down by 12 percent at 12.6 litres per 100 km.
