AMG's latest S 63 sticks with a V-8 but augments it with electric power.
Mercedes-Benz AMG late on Monday revealed the newest generation of its S 63 super sedan for the 2023 model year.
This time around the car's full title is S 63 E Performance, with the new appendage indicating the carInstead of the standalone V-8 of the previous S 63, there's now a V-8 up front and an electric motor at the rear axle for a combined 791 hp and 1,055 lb-ft of torque. The V-8 is AMG's familiar twin-turbo 4.0-liter unit paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.
The rear-mounted electric motor delivers a maximum 188 hp and can drive the car on its own for short distances. This more powerful motor has its own 2-speed transmission and an electronically controlled limited-slip differential. By giving the engine and electric motor their own transmissions, more torque can be delivered to the wheels, according to AMG.The rear motor is powered by a 13.1-kwh battery that's also mounted at the rear for improved weight distribution.
Performance estimates for the S 63 E Performance include 0-60 mph acceleration in 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 180 mph., which hits the benchmark in about 2.9 seconds.Beyond the all-wheel-drive system and limited-slip differential of the rear axle, which helps improve stability during hard cornering by directing the torque where it is needed, the S 63 E Performance's handling is also aided by an air suspension, adaptive dampers, active roll stabilization, and rear-wheel steering.
The S 63 E Performance is expected to reach the U.S. next year. Final specifications and pricing information will be announced closer to the market launch.
