Mercedes-Benz has officially taken the wraps off its new C63 AMG in both Saloon and Estate form and two power levels.
The top model in the C-Class line-up is driven by a 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine closely related to the power unit in the Mercedes-AMG GT. The power spectrum ranges from 476 hp in the C63 to 510 hp in the C63 S. With a fuel consumption figure of 8.2 litres per 100 kilometres, the C63 is the most fuel-efficient eight-cylinder car in the high-performance segment.
The extensive range of standard equipment includes the AMG RIDE CONTROL sports suspension with electronically controlled shock absorbers, the mechanical rear locking differential and the AMG DYNAMIC SELECT drive programmes.
The V8 top model in the C-Class is available in a choice of four variants – the saloon and the estate are both offered as the Mercedes-AMG C63 S and C63, with the C63 S set up for even more dynamic handling and performance.
The Mercedes-AMG C63 celebrates its world premiere on 2 October 2014 together with the show premiere of the Mercedes-AMG GT at the Salon de l’Automobile in Paris.
Market introduction begins in February 2015 with the more powerful C63 S Saloon. The C63 and the C63 S Estate will follow in April 2015.
