| | February 20, 2008 – In the German Touring Car Masters (DTM) the new AMG C-Class ensures exciting motor racing at the highest level. And now, its road-going sister model is celebrating its debut: the new C 63 AMG. This AMG eight-cylinder top model differentiates itself from the standard C-Class more than ever before. The C 63 AMG is unmistakable in its role as the exclusive and dynamic top model. |
| This model is powered by an AMG 6.3-litre V8 engine that is built to the unique AMG philosophy of “one man - one engine”, which allows the company to uphold the most stringent quality standards. Developing a peak output of 336 kW/457 hp at 6,800 rpm and a maximum torque of 600 Nm at 5,000 rpm, the high-revving, naturally-aspirated engine delivers unrivalled figures in this segment. |
| The C 63 AMG accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds; the top speed is electronically limited to 250km/h. Power transmission is in the capable hands of the AMG SPEEDSHIFT PLUS 7G-TRONIC. Equipped with AMG steering-wheel shift paddles and featuring three drive programs, the seven-speed automatic offers everything from a seriously sporty to a comfort-oriented driving style. In conjunction with the newly developed front axle, AMG speed-sensitive sports steering and the new, 3-stage ESP®, the AMG sports suspension with 18-inch AMG light-alloy wheels ensures both outstanding driving pleasure and exemplary driving dynamics. |
| Dr. Claus Weidner, Chief Operating Officer of Mercedes-Benz Hong Kong Limited, said, “The quality of design and equipment in the new C 63 AMG is more than a match for its outstanding technology.” |
| In addition to the elegant but impressive AMG bodystyling, characteristic brand features include the bonnet with power domes, flared front wings, the AMG rear apron with a black diffusor insert, the AMG sports exhaust system with two chromed twin tailpipes and the AMG spoiler lip. |
| The interior is dominated by a distinctive, forward-thinking comfort. The AMG sports seats feature integrated head restraints, the AMG performance steering wheel with instrument cluster and AMG main menu all seamlessly blended with a classy and exquisite leather interior. The combination of expressive design, a decidedly sporty interior and superb everyday practicality makes the C 63 AMG a unique high-performance vehicle. |
