Striking AMG lines underpin the latest S 63 AMG Coupé. The vehicles irresistible presence and effortlessly superior sportiness. The combination of high driving dynamics, ambitious lightweight construction and groundbreaking efficiency.

 

The Mercedes-Benz S 63 AMG Coupé is the most powerful member of the BlueDIRECT engine family, the AMG 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine, poise and assurance by the bundle. With a massive output of 585 hp and 900 Nm of torque, the S 63 AMG Coupé delivers its exceptional performance with remarkably low fuel consumption.

This car also brings a world first in the shape of the curve tilting function, part of the MAGIC BODY CONTROL suspension system, enhancing even more, driving pleasure and comfort.

The S 63 AMG Coupé is the latest model to benefit from the systematic implementation of the AMG Lightweight Performance strategy.

Lightweight construction has reduced the vehicle weight by 65 kilograms – even though the car has a higher output and more extensive standard equipment than the predecessor model. This weight saving was achieved largely thanks to the use of a lightweight lithium-ion battery, AMG forged light-alloy wheels and a weight-optimised AMG high-performance composite braking system.

Furthermore, the entire outer skin and the front end of the body are made of aluminium. The reduced weight improves driving dynamics and cuts fuel consumption, while the low power-to-weight ratio of 3.41 kg/hp results in effortlessly superior performance: the S 63 AMG Coupé accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 3.9 to 4.3 seconds, depending on model variant, and goes on to reach a top speed of 155 mph (electronically limited).

In terms of maximum output, torque and fuel consumption, the AMG 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine remains one of the most efficient series-produced V8 engines of all. With an output of 585 hp and 900 Nm of torque, the AMG eight-cylinder unit from the BlueDIRECT engine family meets even the most demanding of requirements. Compared to the previous CL 63 AMG model, engine output has been increased by 41 hp and torque by 100 Nm. Yet the S 63 AMG Coupé still consumes less fuel: The NEDC combined figure of 27.9 mpg makes the two-door model the most fuel-efficient model in its competitive segment. Compliance with the EU6 emissions standard shows that performance, efficiency and environmental compatibility are by no means mutually exclusive at Mercedes-AMG.

When: The S 63 AMG Coupé will be premiered at the New York International Auto Show in April 2014. The launch in the UK market will be by the end of 2014. UK pricing and specification (tbc).
