There isn’t much to complain about the current Mercedes AMG C 63.
Its latest model, however, is set to pack an even bigger punch…if that’s possible!
Mercedes-Benz is set to premiere its new power-coupé at the Frankfurt Motor Show on September 15, 2015.
Following the recent launch of the C-Class coupé and C 63 Saloon, the Mercedes-AMG C 63 Coupé comes with an upgradeable performance enhanced ‘S’ model option.
This super speedy variant boasts even ridiculously crazier specs. Think Usain Bolt on Fast & Furious-style nitrous oxid.
A firm contender to rally against the power-hungry class rivals that are the all-new BMW M4 and Audi RS5, on paper the C 63 Coupé is easily top dog.
DESIblitz takes a closer look!
Exterior
The new Mercedes AMG C 63 Coupé is ravishing to look at.
Its dynamically-modified new flared wheel arches are 64mm wider than the standard C Class Coupé at the front, and 66mm at the rear.
This allows wider tyres to be fitted to increase road grip for better handling, along with huge air inlets.
Other AMG designs include an awesome front bumper with a black mesh grille, and four aerodynamic sport exhaust pipes at the back, to complement the new-look rear bumper and ‘road-hugging side-skirts’.
Interior
The luxurious interior is fully pimped out with heavenly sporty AMG comforts.
Elegant touches like the flat-bottom multi-function steering wheel, super sporty performance seats, snazzy centre console with its sexy chrome control bezel ooze a premium feel.
Apart from the slightly lower seating position and AMG badges, much of the cabin remains the same as its new siblings.
Bespoke interior instruments are optional and no doubt Mercedes-Benz lovers will look to customise their C 63 Coupé as much as possible to stand out from the others on the school run!
Performance
Right, now for the mouth-watering stats.
The top spec ‘S’ model C 63 will utilise all of that twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 biturbo engine, to generate a mind-blowing 503 bhp and 700Nm of torque.
Tobias Moers, Chairman of Mercedes-AMG, says:
“We are making a bold visual statement with the muscular design. Our customers can therefore experience the progress with each of their senses: seeing, hearing, feeling and, above all, driving!
“The result is a car that exudes style and drives like a dream – a stunning coupé with the spirit of a racer.”
With a limited top speed of 180mph, this explosive performance tyrant will get to 62mph in just 3.8 seconds, making it a whole 0.4 seconds faster than its predecessor.
A seven-speed Speedshift MultiClutch Transmission (MCT) automatic gearbox and AMG Ride Control suspension will help you achieve these blistering speeds with relative ease.
Returning 32.8mpg is not bad for such a high performer.
Pricing is yet to be revealed. However, expect it to be above the £60,000 mark for the standard C 63 and around £70,000 for the enhanced ‘S’ model.
The most popular AMG model has just got better. So for now, all signs point towards the 2017 Mercedes C 63 Coupé remaining king of the crop.
