2016 Mercedes-AMG GLE63 S Coupe Review - GTspirit

Mercedes-Benz is a brand that is constantly working to expand and create vehicles for every consumer’s demands ranging from tractors, lorries and Unimogs to hardcore track honed speed machines like the SLS AMG Black Series and recent AMG GT. Where... These are automobiles that are based on everyday cars and require the attention of performance house AMG to extract the most from the propositions at hand. The latest niche is presented in the form of a sport utility coupe, a niche in itself, that then had a mammoth 5. 5-liter V8 wedged under its bonnet to create the 577 horsepower Mercedes-AMG GLE63 S Coupe. After the 6. 2-liter V8 was phased out in the name of being green, the bi-turbo 5. 5 took its place and featured in cars including the E63 AMG S that we loved so much as well as the S63, G63, SL63 and many more AMG variants. One factor that is pivotal to the car’s fearsome speed is the gearbox, something that was always a drawback with previous AMG cars. Both the GLE63 and AMG S have been equipped with AMG’s very own seven-speed 7G transmission driving the 4Matic all-wheel drive system which sends 40 per cent of the power to the front and 60 per cent of power to the rear wheels.
