The Mercedes-AMG Coupé C 63 delivers the hallmark AMG "Driving Performance" with a 4.0-litre twin-turbo eight-cylinder engine rated at 350 kW/476 hp (375 kW/510 hp in the C 63 S). It is characterised by two turbochargers positioned not on the outside of the cylinder banks, but inside the cylinder "V". The key advantages of this design are compact dimensions, optimal throttle response and low exhaust emissions.
Intelligent lightweight construction with a higher proportion of aluminium helps make the Coupé lighter than its predecessor. Light-alloy components include the wings, bonnet and boot lid. At the same time, the body is now much stiffer and stronger thanks to the use of high-strength materials, which has a positive effect on not only driving dynamics and noise levels but also crash safety. The Coupé therefore follows a Mercedes-Benz tradition in not only meeting all current national and international laws, but also all rating requirements as well as the more stringent internal Mercedes-Benz safety requirements, which are based on what actually happens in real-life accidents.
Against the wind
Mercedes-Benz is setting the pace in the field of aerodynamics and offers the cars with the best drag coefficients (Cd values) in almost all vehicle categories. The new C-Class Coupé boasts a Cd value of 0.26. This leading figure pays off above all when driving on country roads and motorways as wind resistance is greater than other forms of driving resistance at speeds above 70 km/h.
