The new Mercedes-AMG E-Class - in-line six-cylinder with EQ Boost starter generator

"The AMG 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine in the E 63 S 4MATIC + remains unchanged at 450 kW (612 hp) and achieves a maximum torque of 850 Nm. It is available over a wide engine speed range from 2,500 to 4,500 rpm and thus conveys the feeling of superior sovereignty with every position of the accelerator pedal. The E 63 4MATIC + basic model has an output of 420 kW (571 hp) and 750 Nm of torque. The sedan completes the sprint from 0 to 100 km / h in 3.4 seconds as the S version and in 3.5 seconds as the basic version. The values ​​for the station wagon are 3.5 seconds (S variant) and 3.6 seconds (basic variant). In order to optimize the performance and responsiveness of the AMG 4.0-liter V8 engine, the two turbochargers are designed with twin-scroll technology. They reduce the exhaust gas back pressure and optimize the gas exchange. Thanks to the standard cylinder deactivation and other measures, the performance models are highly efficient. The cylinder deactivation is available in the wide speed range from 1,000 to 3,250 rpm if the driver has selected the "Comfort" drive program. A special display in the instrument cluster provides information on whether cylinder deactivation is active and the engine is currently running in four or eight cylinder mode. The transition between these two operating states takes place spontaneously, quickly and moment-neutral, so that the occupants do not have to accept any loss of comfort. "
