Efficiency and emotion, top performance and power delivery – in the second
generation of the S 63 AMG, the AMG 5.5-litre V8 biturbo engine once again
asserts its leadership in this competitive segment. This high-performance
engine from Mercedes-AMG with the in-house designation M 157 outperforms
all comparable engines: no other series-production eight-cylinder engine is able
to match its output of 430 kW (585 hp) and maximum torque of 900 newton
metres. In terms of maximum output and fuel consumption, the AMG eight-
cylinder engine from the BlueDIRECT family of engines remains the most
efficient series-production V8 engine of all. Even though the engine output has
been increased by 30 kW (41 hp), the fuel consumption of the new S 63 AMG is
up to 0.4 litres per 100 kilometres lower than that of the preceding model.
The performance figures show that dynamism and low fuel consumption can be
perfectly combined. The S 63 AMG 4MATIC accelerates from standstill to
100 km/h in 4.0 seconds, the rear-wheel drive variant in 4.4 seconds. The top
V8 model reaches its top speed of 250 km/h (electronically limited) effortlessly
and serenely. The driving experience is characterised by the unrivalled power
delivery of the charged eight-cylinder power unit from the AMG engine shop in
Affalterbach: 900 newton metres of torque is on tap from 2250 to 3750 rpm –
guaranteeing exhilarating pulling power in any speed range.
