Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E PERFORMANCE - the game changer

The Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E PERFORMANC is a true game changer: the hybrid powertrain is designed for maximum performance. It combines the AMG 2.0-liter turbocharged engine with an Electric Drive Unit (EDU) on the rear axle for a completely new driving experience. In addition to the clearly noticeable immediate boost, the independent layout also ensures balanced weight distribution - benefiting driving dynamics and handling in equal measure. Depending on the driving program, the electric motor boosts power and torque according to the situation, for a particularly comfortable or performance-oriented driving experience. Purely electric driving is also possible. The electric powertrain and the high-performance battery with 400 volts are exclusive AMG developments. As in Formula 1™, the battery with innovative direct cooling of the cells is specifically designed for fast power output and absorption. The electric range of 13 kilometers enables a practical operating radius, for example in the city or in residential areas. The combined system output is 500 kW (680 hp), the combined maximum system torque 1,020 Nm. Other highlights of the new model series, which is being launched simultaneously as a sedan and an estate: for the first time in a C 63, the fully variable AMG Performance 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive system transfers drive power to the road, including drift mode for even more driving pleasure. Added to this is active rear-axle steering as standard, another unique selling point in this segment.
