  • The time has finally come for Mat to feel what it’s like to drive the all-new AMG C63!*
    *…Ok, that’s not entirely true! He will feel what it’s like to be in a new AMG C63 as it’s being driven, but he’ll be sat in the passenger seat. You see, this is only a prototype, with the full unveil still some way off.
    However, even if he’s not behind the wheel, he’ll still have a chance to see just what it’s like when it’s on the move. He’ll start off with it driving on electric power alone, after which the AMG test driver will put the AMG C63 through its paces in Sports Plus mode! Oh and of course, Mat’s in the car, so it would be rude to not try out a launch, a brake test and a bit of drifting!
    Now we know any AMG 63 is going to be an exciting drive. However, there’s one key change that you AMG fanboys & fangirls may not like… The V8 has GONE, and it’s been replaced by a 2-litre 4-cylinder hybrid!! Don’t worry though, it’s not all bad. The power output has increased by 150hp, with the engine and electric motor combining to deliver 680hp and 1,020Nm of torque! It can also fly to 60mph in just 3.4 seconds.
    So, can you still love the C63 even with the loss of the V8? You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

      @@corbinsmith50 This time is over since Mercedes started following the US Leasing Market back in the days. Before cars were build to last, after the switch they turned to build a new Model each 3 years to fit the market. That is were the philosophy changed. Trucks, Commercial Vehiclees and so on are still build with the old mindset, but the cars suffered heavily from that change.

      @@purwantiallan5089 It's the generation that was for sale 2014 to 2021. And I think it looked a lot better, more style, elegant proportions, it just made more sense. And you could get it with the amazing 4.0L M177 V8 in the C63 AMG, as well as the 3.0L iteration of the M276 V6 in the C400 / C450 / C43 AMG models.
      I argue it's the same with the S-Class. The W222 (2013-2020 S-Class) is one of the best looking cars in the last 30 years, at least in my opinion. It's just pure elegance and understated luxury. The new W223 is just less refined and looks way worse in my opinion. Maybe not ad bad as the W206 C-Class, but still a big step backwards. And they got rid of the S65 AMG with the spectacular M279 V12, which you can only get in the Maybach S680 now. And they of course ruined the interior of both C-Class and S-Class with huge screens and saving money on the quality of the materials.

      The only reason I mentioned the straight 6 was because of the sound. Since the v8 is gone, the next best sounding engine is the straight six in their line up. AMG could use that block and easily build their own engine out of it. It is already in their lineup. The 2 litre is good but the sound is something to be desired. Not questioning the profitability and the Performance.
