The new MercedesAMG C43 has fewer cylinders than before; does this version of the C-Class luxury sport sedan still satisfy?
See all 39 photosVisually, the new C43 follows the now tried-and-true AMG formula. Compared with the regular C-Class, the C43 exterior features more aggressive styling elements, including the menacing, vertical-bar AMG grille, unique wheels , quad exhausts, and a spoiler on the trunklid. Hot tip: Order the bigger wheels, and your C43 will go faster, as the top speed gets a bump from 155 mph to 165 mph when you switch from the standard 18s.
At the front axle are redesigned knuckles and suspension joints. The multilink rear axle features stiffer bushings, while a front strut brace and an aluminum panel under the engine compartment help increase body stiffness by 5 percent. In simple terms, the electric motor—which is 1.6 inches wide and mounted between the turbine and compressor wheels—is designed to eliminate turbo lag by keeping the turbocharger spinning and boost pressure high even at low engine speeds. AMG engineers say the system delivers 45-50 percent response at low rpm and 10-15 percent better response at high rpm.
In truth the issue may have more to do with torque than power: The M139L not only makes 15 less lb-ft of torque than the 3.0-liter twin-turbo V-6 of the previous C43, but its torque peak occurs 3,000 rpm higher in the rev range, at 5,000 rpm versus the V-6's 2,000.
