Four cars, 2000bhp, four minutes: Mercedes-AMG track test video - AutoExpress
The C-Class might look like a hefty estate but AMG has managed to transform it into a complete hooligan with all that power going to the rear wheels. What else did you expect though really, when the C 63 has pinched the 4. 0-litre V8 twin turbo engine from the AMG GT S. . The GT S has power and torque figures to match the C 63 but 0-62mph takes just 3. 8 seconds and it has a whopping top speed... Next was the CLS 63 AMG S Shooting Brake with 577bhp and 900Nm of Torque. Its top speed of 143mph and 0-62mph time of 4. 1 seconds are pretty tasty too. You get the high-class executive feel you expect from a Mercedes-Benz, with the options such as black ash trimmed leather seats and ambient lighting. And if you thought the C 63 was big, the CLS is a step up the scale again. Well, they do say bigger is better, and this is certainly bigger. Even though the CLS 63 is one of the heaviest cars here, its still got some incredible pace. The S63 AMG Coupe has the same power and same torque as the CLS 63 AMG S shooting brake, and the 0-62mph times and top speeds aren’t that different either. Mercedes might have made this lighter than the previous performance S-Class model, but masses of top spec kit on board means it’s still heavier than the other cars we tested.
